Senor Itamoo Lopez, editor of the La Corru- spondencia de Puerto Hico, the principal journal of the Hand, published at Ban Juan, has arrived at Ponce, He says San Juan has been cut oft from the world since the war began and he could print only Official bulletlons issued by the goy eminent regarding the progress of the war. It was several weeks after the battle of Manila before the government issued a buletin admitting defeat Information of the destruction of Ccvcra's fleet reached San Juan the day aftor the bat tle, but the newspapers were not per nutted to print even a rumor. Ten days later Captain-General Maclas Issued a bulletin stating that six American ves sels, Including two battleships, had been destroyed. The truth was never pub lished in Ban Juan, but the facts leaked out unofficially, The same secrecy was observed when Santiago surrendered. Early in the war the residents, of 8an Juan, who were extremely pro-Spanish, credited the ofticial announcement of vic tory, but after Santiago tell they lost Imps and even the moat ramMot Span' lards began to admit that Bpain was not able to light the United States. Before the Americans landed la Porto lileo many residents of Ban Juan volun teered to defend the island. . After the landing they began to beat stories ot the strength and efficiency of the American array and their regiment disbanded. They bad litllo news of the pr of. rest of the campaign In Porto Hico. but could easily tell tln.ltliings were going against the Hpanlards. , When the news of peace came every one rvjoioed.
