Through the helio. graph the authorities were notified as they proceeded. Upon arrival off Manzanillo, they entered the harbor by Southern channel. The force met much more resistance than was an- ticiimted, by gunboats, shore batteries and infantry. After a sharp engage- ment of about half an hour, the Amer- ican vessels were compelled to retire, the Hornet in a disabled condition owing to her steam-pipe being cut by an enemy's shot. On the next day, July 1, 1898, two more auxiliary vessels, th...e Scorpion and Osceola, arrived in the vicinity of Manzanillo from Santiago, having passed through outlying keys by the Cantro-Beales channel to guard the northern entrance to the town. Lieu- tenant-Commander Marix of the Scor- pion had expected to find the three vessels engaged the previous day, but they had retired the same way they came, and were not encountered. Lieutenant-Commander Marix, in Scor- pion, accompanied by the Osceola, Lieutenant Purcell, entered the harbor by a new channel between the keys fronting the town, but were compelled to retire after a brisk egagement of half an hour.
