‘ SPANISH All EIUSIVE

Evidently Waiting For An Open-
ing to Cuba.

ALL AVENUES GUARDED

The Spanish Sduadron Has Long Eluded
Our \Varships, but‘ it is Generally Con.
ceded the Time of Battle is Rapidly
Approaching.

Washington, May 18.—So far as open
speech is an indication 'the war admin-
lstration believes the enemy is about to
cross the Caribbean sea to some Cuban
port, presumably a southern port, Cien-
fuegos or Santiago, and they declare
that Admiral Sampson, passing south
by the windward passage, between Cu—
ba. and Hayti, will head off. the Spanish
fleet and give them battle befOre they
can reach port. But it is a matter of
common knowledge that if Admiral
Sampson should intercept the Spanish
cruisers off Santiago, they could turn
tail and in a. chase to Cienfuegos beat
Sampson’s slower vessels easily.

For that matter, haying located the
'American pursuers and got them in the
rear, Admiral Cervera might make a
dash, for one of the Gulf cities, and by
reason of the superior fleeatness of his
cruisers reach that city and do incalcu-
table damage before his pursuers could
catch up.

EMS is the situation which is puzzling
the naval strategists at Washington to-
day.

Commodore Schley is within easy ac-
cess of Havana or the Yucatan channel
between Florida and Cuba, while Samp-
son guards the approach from the east,
leaving Commodore Watson and his
fleet of gunboats, monitors, torpedo
boats and lesser cruisers to maintain
. the blockade of Havana, Matanzas and
other North Cuban towns, and if the
enemy starts to walk into the net
spread by Washington there will be a
fight with little doubt us to the result.
But the possibility of catching the Cape
Verde fleet is not considered very prom-
Ising by experienced flval strategists.

Spain’s fleet can sail one-third faster
than ours so once give it a start we
can never catch it.

Tue Second Fleet a linth.

After a- deal of hard hustling in
which cable despatches were exchanged
between the war administration at
Washington and its agents in a score
of remote places all ova: the world it
has been found that the stories about
the appearance of Admiral Villamil off
Martinique with a fleeet comprising the

' Spanish cruisers Cianer’os Cataluna,
Princessa de Asturias and several
smaller boats, were false.

The three fighting ships named are
all at Cadiz, and each is receiving
some needed repairs. Admiral villamil
is subordinate to Admiral Cervera of
the Cape Verd fleet. He is in charge
of work similar to that of Commodore
Howell’s mosquito fleet and when the
fleet left Spain was in command of that
portion of it comprising the destroyers.
auxiliaries, scouts and the like. All of
his command except the three destroy-
ers, returned ‘to the Canaries the day
the fighting ships sailed for America.

Anxious for a Meeting.

The ships 'of the American blockading
fleet are keeping a vigilant watch for
the appearance of the Spanish fleet and
will not be taken by surprise should the
Spanish men—of—war round Cape San
Antonio, the western point of Cuba, and
swoop down upon Havana. All our
ships have been warned by Commodore
Watson of the possibility of such a
move, and sailors are kept constantly
in the tops, where they can sweep the
horizon for thirty miles, looking out for
the first sign of a hostile ship.

All the naval officers on the blockade
station are anxious for a meeting with
the Spaniards, and when informed that
the latest reports placed them off the
mast of Venezuela they jubilanitly de-
clared that the enemy would be
hemmed in between the Windward is-
lands and the Yucatan channel, to'be
destroyed. The only fear expressed
was for the safety of our ships block—
ading Cienfuegos. It is not doubted,
however, that precautions have been
take into safeguard our ships now on
the southern coast of Cuba. The tor-
pedo boats and fast yachts of the aux-
Iliary fleet keep the blockading ships
in constant communication with Key
West, whence the movements of vessels
are being directed.

Spanish News from IIIaniIa.

London, May 18.—The Madrid corre-
spondent of the Standard says:

“Very conflicting news has reached
Madrid from official and private
sources concerning the state of affairs
In the Philippines. Captain General Au-
gusti seems confident that he will be
able to resist the American war ves-
sels for some time. His reports as to
the dispositions of the garrisons and
Inhabitants are excellent. The princi-
pal difficulties are the rise in prices, the
scarcity of provisions and the unsettled
state of the interior of the country.

"General Augusti hopes to overcome
these directly relief comes from Spain,
If he is also allowed to promise to grant
the natives a part of the reforms de-
manded by the leaders of the insurrec-
tion, which were submitted to -..arshal
Primo Rivera during his governor gen-
eralship. Spain is disposed to go far in
conceding administrative and munici-
pal reforms, but she cannot easily com-
ply with the native aspirations as re-
gards the vast property and influence
of the religious orders In the Philip—
pine and other archipelagoes.

Sqain’s Reserve Fleet.

Washington, May ,18.-—Dispatches
from London say that the Spanish re-
serve fleet left Cadiz last Friday for
the Canary islands. This is said to be
a. move in a bold plan of attack on our
New England coast.

The fleet includes the first class bat-
tleship Pelayo, the formidable armored
cruisers Carlos V, Cardinal Cisneros,
Princessa de Asturias and the Cata-
lina. ‘

Another story Is that the fleet has
gone to the Canaries in preparation for
the expedition to Manila by way of the
Suez canal. ,

Washington authorities laugh at the
Suggestion that the fleet is coming this
way. They say sheis needed at home.

Cu R N EW BATT LESHIPS.
The Alabama Launched fronl Cl'amp's

Shipyard.

Philadelphia, May 18.——The new bat-
lIleship Alabama was launched at high
;tide to—day at the shipyard of William
'Sramp & Sons. Miss Morgan, daughter
'of Senator Morgan of Alabama, named
the vessel and broke the customary
'bottle of champagne over her bow. No
'other ceremony marked the launching,
as the war regulations do not permit of

entertaining a large crowd in the ship- .

lyards by the Delaware.

‘The Alabama is one of the three
first class battleships, identical in de-
lsign, which were authorized on June 10,
,l896, and is the first to be launched. The
luthers are still about half completed——
the Illinois at Newport News and the
Wisconsin at the Union Iron Works in
San Francisco.

In length the Alabama is 368 feet, 13
feet longer than the battleship Iowa.
IHer beam is 72 feet 5 inches; mean
draught 23 feet 6 inches, and she has a
'displacement at that draught of 11,525
:ons. She will have two vertical three-
cylinder engines, driving twin screws,
estimated to develop 15,000 indicated
horse power, giving a maximum speed
If 16 knots.

In guns the Alabama will be the
equal of any craft now afloat; the main
battery comprises four 13-inch guns,
and fourteen 6-inch rapid-fire guns,
while the secondary battery has six-
teen 6-pounders, four 1-pounders, one
Bolt, two field guns and four torpedo
tubes.

MACKAY—-DUER WEDDING.

Ceremony Performed by Archbishop Cor-
rigan at the Duer Home.

New York, May 18.-—-Miss Katharine
Duer, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wil-
liam Duer of 17 West 21st street, was
harried at noon Tuesday to Mr. Clar-
ence Hangerford Mackay. Archbishop
Corrigan performed the ceremony, ac-
:ording to the ritual of the Roman
Catholic church, of which Mr. Mackay
isla member.

Wealth and fashion or New York
turned out in a way that it has not‘
teen represented at any marriage since
Miss Censuela Vanderbilt married the
Duke of Marlborough.

There were such noted New York
families represented as the Vanderbilts,
Astors, Sloants, Gdelets, the Livings-
Ions, Van Rensselaers and Kings.

The presents were neariy all costly
gems and precious stones. The Prin-
cess Colonna, the bridegroom’s sister,
and Mrs. John W. Mackay, «his mother,
Ipresented the bride with a small fort-
’me in jewels.

 

Envelope Companies Consolidate.

Worcester, May 18.—The consolida-
tion of ten of the most prominent of
the envelope companies of the country,
representing 90 per cent. of the output
of commercial envelopes, has been ef-
fected. The name of the consolidated
:ompany is the United States Envelope
Company. The total capital is $7,000,-

tnd the rest in capital stock.

 

The Neutrality of llIexico.

City of Mexico, May 18.———Proclama-
tions have been issued all over the
:ountry announcing the neutrality of
Mexico between Spain and the United
States, and efforts have been made to
prevent its discussion. The conduct of
the government is frankly and energet-
Ically impartial.

High Mexican military officials con-
tinue to comment upon the advisability
of 'the United States landing troops in
Cuba declaring it to be sound strategy.

l0 BOMBARD HAVANA

 

And Occupy Cuba By a Land
Force Right Away.

VIGOROU S W A R POLICY.

 

It is Believed that ihe Policy of Doing
is Ended and that Immediate Measure:
\Vill Be Taken to Occupy Cuba. and
Reduce the Forts.

Miami, Fla., May 18.-—The adminis-
tration at Washington has ceased to
act on the defensive. It will be aggres-
sive from now on. Havana is to be
reduced and Cuba invaded whether the
Spanish warships in Atlantic waters
are destroyed or not.

The first step in the new policy was
taken yesterday. Commodore \Vat-
son has started for Havana with Unit-
ed States Squadron No. 3 to work in
harmony with the squadrons under
Rear Admiral Sampson and Commodore
Schley. It is a formidable fleet, cap-
able of making a fight against the
squadron under Admiral Cervera. But
it is likely that it will join Commodore
Schley’s squadron, which is due off Ha-
vana. The combined fleet thus formed
would be equal to a conflict with all the
warships which rumor has placed in
West Indian waters.

It is not expected that Commodores
Schley and “’atson will begin at once
to bombard Havana. They are to
wait, sleeping on their arms, so to
speak, to meet the Spaniards if they
make a dash to get under the big guns
of Havana Harbor. If the Spaniards
come there will be a great naval bat-
tle, the outcome of which can hardly be
doubted. If the Spaniards do not come
the bombardment of Havana will be-
gin when the soldiers of the United
States are ready to crowd Blanco from
the rear of Havana.

In conjunction with the movement 01
Commodore \Vatson there is activity
in the army, which indicates a speedy
movement for the landing of troops.
Perhaps they will go on Cuban soil un-
der the guns of some of Commodore
Watson's fleet.

Commodore VVa-tson took his fleet
from Key West singly. He has been
coating for several days and the fuel
is piled high on the decks. His fleet
consists of the powerful monitors Pur-
itan and Miantonomoh, the cruisers
Cincinnati and Helena, the auxiliary
cruiser St. Paul, the torpedo boats,
Ericsson, Dupont, Foote and Cushing,
and the gunboats Bancroft, Hamilton,
Dolphin, Morrill, Eagle Hawk and
“’asp. -

This squadron would be able to dis-
pose of the squadron under Admiral
Cervera, probably, without the aid of
the Massachusetts, the Texas, and the
Brooklyn, under Commodore Schley.
Cervera is supposed to have the crui-
sers Vizcaya, Maria Teresa, Cristobal
Colon and Admiranite Ocfileiido, and the
torpedo-boat destroyers Pluton and
Furor. But Commodore Watson hard-
ly would like to meet Cervera if he
has been reinforced by the cruisers
Princess de Asturias, Cardenal Cisner-
os and Cataluna, the destroyer Terror
and the torpedo boats supposed to be
under the command of the torpedo ex-
pert. Admiral Villamil.

Any two of the three .‘tmerican fleets
could dispose of the combined Span-
ish fleet. Any dash on the part of the
Spaniards to get under the shelter of
Havana’s big guns will be interesting.
Should the dash be made at night Com-
modore Watson's torpedo boats would
have a chance to demonstrate their us.-
fulness.

’But the movement essentially is of-
fensive, not defensive. It is to be fol-
lowed by theinvasion of Cuba, and
the war is to be pushed to a speedy
ending.

Delay No Longer.

V‘Vashington, May 18.—The president
listened to-day to the most recent re-
ports of the starvation and misery in
Cuba. He expresssed deep emotion at
the recital and signified his determina-
tion to put an end to the conditions.
The president hopes that the movement
on Cuba may be begun by the end
of this week.

Plans to convoy the troops without
waiting for the capture or destruction
of the Spanish fleet were discussed. The
president told his advisers today that,
fleet or no fleet, the operations in Cuba
must begin, to carry out the humani-
tarian purpose for which this country
entered upon the war.

 

Roosevelt Drills His Rough Uns.

San Antonio, Tex., May 18.—A column
of 500 rough riders, uniformed in brown
buck suits and leggins and wide-
brimmed sombreros, was drilled for twc
Ihours yesterday by Theodore Roe-Seven,
lieutenant colonel of the First Volun<
teer Cavalry. He rode a handsome bay
mustang which he bought this morning.
Before closing the purchase he rode the
mustang up and down a public street
several times to try his mettle. Thd
horse ,had a great deal of mettle, but
Colonel Roosevelt mastered him. Colo-
nel Roosevelt drillled his men enthusi‘
asticallly, and gave the captains a greal
many pointers.

 

FOR 100,000 MORE VOLUNTEERS.

The President Expect-ed to Issue a Call
for that Number.

Washington, May 18.—'The signs all
point to a call by the president, to be
issued to-day for one hundred thousand
more volunteers. No new legislation
will be necessary for this purpose as
the “volunteer law” gives him the wid-
est possible discretion as to the num-
ber of men he may call out. The At—
torney—general gave the president his
opinion on this point when the bill was
examined by the cabinet before its ap-
proval. .

An:.ther Cruiser is Ready.

Washington, May 18.—The protected
cruiser Newark has been remodeled and
will be placed in commission at the
Norfolk navy yard Saturday. She has
a speed of 19 knots, is 4,098 tons dis-
placement, and carries twelve six-inch
rifles. Except the Philadelphia, she will
be the last of the regular naval Vessels
to be commissioned during the war, all
others now being in active service that
can possibly be gotten 'ready. The
Chicago and Atlanta are the only two
others undergoing repairs and over-
hauling.

 

WITH THE SOLDIERS

.__.__.nc—

Cowardly Quitters at Camp Black
Disgraced.

MEN BAGEB FOR THE FRONT

The Seventy-first of New York, the
Second of Massachusetts and the
Fourth of Pennsylvania Start for
the South—Other Regiments Ex.
meet to Follow This Week.

Camp Black, L. 1., May 16.—To-day
the Sixty-fifth and Second Provisional
regiments become divisions of the Fed-
eral Army, and the Fourteenth, Third
and First will follow on Tuesday. The
last three will be the Forty-seventh,
Twenty-second and Sixty-ninth. Col.
Grant has been disappointed by the
series of little hitches which have kept
the enlisting of the Fourteenth back,
while the Sixty-fifth and Second are in
an enthusiastic mood, because they
were prepared for the muster ahead of
their rivals. .

Capt. Schuyler says that there will be
no more marching away until Tues—
day, and possibly not until Wednesday.
The general order to hurry all along
the line will be carried out vigorously,
and that is all that can be said now.

Four Men Drummed Out.

Four members of the Sixty—fifth Reg-
iment of Buffalo were drummed out of
camp Saturday. They were new mem—
bers who had joined the organization
for the fun they could get out of it, and
who had decided that the fun would
end about the time the regiment start-
ed for the South. Two were in Com—
pany I, one was in A and one in G. The
I men were caught in the morning try—
ing to sneak out of the line. The
guards brought them back. The drum-
mers were summoned, and the two de-
serters were marched out of camp to
the tune of “The Rogue's March,”
while the regiment stood around in
crowds and jeered. By a prearranged
plan the guards looked the other way
while five men broke the lines and fol-
lowed the deserters. Overtaking them
the five set upon the two from Com-
pany I and gave them a. thrashing
they will not soon forget.

The experiences of the‘ men from
Companies A and G were not more
pleasant. They were obliged to run the
gantlet while all kinds of missiles,
hard and soft, were hurled at them,
and “The Rogue’s March” was played
by the buglers and whistled by the
privates. When the deserters reached
the railroad station they found mem-
bers of their regiment, who followed
them on board the train, and escorted
them through the cars, introducing
them to the passengers as deserters.

A conspicuous case of “cold feet," by
which term the soldiers designate in-
stances of unwillingness to stick it out
and go with the regiments wherever
they are wanted, was reported in the
Ninth Separate Company, of White-
hall. . '

New Jersey Men Are Anxious.

Camp Voorhees, Sea Girt, May 16.—
An air of expectancy pervaded Camp
Voorhees to-day. At every moment’the
men locked for orders sending them to
the front. Since it became noised
about that instructions had been re-
ceived from the authorities at VVash-
ington intimating that the First Regi-
ment might be expected to move at
twenty-four hours’ notice, the volun-
teers have been anxious. The work of
mustering the men is now complete,
and several of the mustering officers
have, under orders, returned to their
posts. All that remains to be done be-
fore the men can take the field is to
complete their equipment. Supplies
from Washington are looked for, and
not more than two days wil be re—
quired to put the entire brigade in
fighting trim.

Senator Sewell Declines.

Washington, May 16.——Senator Sewell,
of New Jersey, who was nominated to
be a Major General in the volunteer
army, has informed the Secretary of
War that he will decline the honor.
This action presumably is due to the
belief of the Senator that in accepting
a. commission in the army he would be
compelled to resign his position in the
United States Senate. As Senator Sew-
ell was appointed from civil life, the
expectation is that the vacancy will be
filled in a similar way. The Senator
had also been assigned to the command
of the troops to be concentrated at
Washington, and his declination will
compel a new selection for that com-
mand.

The First Pennsylvania Troops.

Mount Gretna, Pa., May 16.—The
first regiment to leave Camp Hastings
for Chickamauga was the Fourth,
which got away between 2 and 3 o'clock
yesterday.

The other regiments are still under
canvas. Last night’s order was modi-
fied by the addition of another regi-
ment, the Tenth, so that the commands
which have received definite orders
from the War Department, are the
Fourth, Sixteenth, Third, First, Fifth,
Fifteenth, Tenth and Ninth.

Massachusets Troops to Chicks;-
muugu.

Boston, May 16.—Gov. VVolcott has
received a telegram from Adjutant
General Corbin stating that Col. Pew,
commanding the Eighth Regiment, M.
V. M., has been ordered by telegraph
to proced to Chickamauga at once with

his regimentf -

 

Mr. Moody and the Soldiers.

East Northfleld, Mass, May 16,—-
Dwight L. Moody, the evangelist, is
busy planning for religious work
among the soldiers. He is of the opin—
[on that the war will not continue long.
“If it does continue.” he says, “there
will be a great demand for Christian
workers.” Then he added, “I plan to
stay here in Northfield, if possible, dur-
lng the Summer, but if necessity de-
mands I shall go to work among the
soldiers.”

Continuing, Mr. Moody said: “I can’t
help pitying Spain. She has been forced
Into this war by her rulers. She is I
sure to be beaten. It is like a big mas-
tiff licking a little cur. The cur may
deserve whipping, but you can’t help
pitying the little dog while the whip-
ping is taking place.”
