HEAD OF THE SPANISH NAVY.

Senor Villamil, Commander of Torpedo Fleet, a Great Naval Strategist. Senor Villamil, the commander of the Spanish torpedo fleet, is one of the great naval strategists of Europe. He is a man of ripe experience, having been in engagements off the coast of

Chili and in the Phillipine Islands. This man is 52 years old. He is of commanding presence, with a deep, sonorous voice and a thunderous accent that can be distinctly heard through the din of battle. He personally commands, and is the only Spaniard who leaves nothing to his lieutenants.
