already have been promoted.

can be stated that he will not, as was at

ixation of the merits of Hobson's achievement, the naval officials have concluded
that so irreat . advancement as that,
nmountinK to a promotion of over 850
numbers, would be unwise, so it is likely
that Hobson will take his place well up
among the lieutenants of the naval service, which officials believe will make his
J reward fully eqtial to that bestowed upon
Cushlng for his daring feat. The Navy Deportment, while not relaxing in any degree its efforts to secure Hobson's release from captivity at Santiago, has about concluded thet nothing practicable can be effcted In this direction until the town Itself haB been captured. The reasons assigned by the Spaniards for declining the exchange are admitted to be sound If the facts are as represented namely, that Hobson has had opportunity to see bo much of the Spanish defenses, their strength nnd weakness, that he could not safely be permitted to return to the American fleet at this time.
