Rear Admiral Evans informs Rear Admiral Davis that he is sending the USS Yankton to Kingston, Jamaica, with two press agents, to communicate with Davis and to deliver bandages and other supplies. Evans directs Davis to send back as soon as possible any communications for Evans and anything the public should know. Any medical officers not required in Kingston should be sent back on the Yankton, as well, so they may return to their ships. Davis should return with the two battleships as soon as they are no longer needed.
