  1. A few days ago, we were speculating what if the Spanish had defeated Dewey and held the Philippines. Given the lengths the US went to to suppress the native rebellion after the Spanish decamped, seems clear the US really really wanted a base it could call it's own for the Asiatic Squadron. If Dewey had been defeated, the USN would probably have been back for another go after taking Cuba.
