II. , and Norfolk have been given their freedom, the terms of release bo ing unconditional, except that they shall be sent home by their own government. Iff om Admiral Cer- vera down to the? humblest sailor the Spanish prisoners have been treated not only with great hu manity, but also with a kindness and courtesy which are almost without precedent. By his chiv alrous - treatment of Lieutenant Hobson at Santiago, Admiral Cer- vera won the respect and admira tion of the people of ; the United States, and this government has repaid that obligation most gener ously. The Spanish admiral, his officers and sailors should take back to Spain only the most agree able recollections of their enforced residence in the,. United States. They made a gallant tight, worthy of the best traditions of Spain, and although they lost their ships they won the respect of their con- querers, The considerate treat ment which they received in this country should be a potent factor in the re-establishment of friendly relations between the United Suites and Spain after the bitter ness engendered by the war has subsided.
