Monterey Coal Plan For Dewey Voyage To Manila
Naval officials entertain a feasible plan to move the cruiser Monterey across the Pacific to Manila with coal transfers en route.

The article notes the risk of a pace race with the Spanish squadron and outlines the revenue and tariff measures tied to Philippine control by the U S government.
