NEWS OF THE DAY. _May 2._ In Manila Bay, on Monday, the second of May, there was much to be done in order to complete the work so thoroughly begun the day previous. Early in the morning an officer came from Corregidor, under flag of truce, to Commodore Dewey, with a proposal of surrender from the commandant of the fortifications. The _Baltimore_ was sent to attend to the business; but when she arrived at the island no one save the commanding officer was found. All his men had deserted him after overthrowing the guns. The _Baltimore_ had but just steamed away, when Commander Lamberton was ordered to go on board the _Petrel_ and run over to Cavite arsenal in order that he might take possession, for on the previous day a white flag had been hoisted there as a signal of surrender.
