Sunk in shallow water on 1 May 1898 in the Battle of Manila Bay during the Spanish-American War, she was raised from Manila Bay under contract and overhauled and refitted at Hong Kong. The 4.7-inch (120-mm) guns she had in Spanish service were replaced with 5-inch (127-mm) guns mounted in sponsons on her main deck.
