Nicely engraved vignette of American Eagle clutching arrows & flag on front page, couple text illusts., illust. ads (vry slght creasng, some edgewear), an excellent copy.

The editor notes how arrangements were made with Western Union and the Associated Press in order to generate this special edition for 4th of July celebrations, and all citizens were encouraged to bring flags and bunting to celebrate the victories of Admiral Sampson, and General Shafter near Sevilla, Cuba. Shafter would later accept the surrender of Santiago de Cuba and 24,000 Spanish troops on July 17, 1898.
