Gun Left By Spanish Fortify Subig Bay In Manila War
A Washington dispatch to the Herald notes a 11 centimeter Krupp gun destroyed in insurgent trenches at Subig Bay near Manila. Spain fortified Subig prior to war, Admiral Dewey suspected a different target, and insurgents with Raleigh and Concord aided defense. Subig Bay, just north of Manila, is viewed as a strategic naval base with hope of permanent navy control, while Otis could not coordinate land and sea forces due to rainy season.
