The CASE OF THE SPANISH GUNBoATs-It is
probable that the grounds of the libel against
the Spanish gunboats will he under the Neu-
trality act of 1918, which says that if vessel be
fitted out and armed ..with Intent that such ship
or vessel shall be employed in the service of any
foreign prince or STATE" to cruise or fight
against 81 the subjects, citizens, or property of
any foreign prince or state, or Of any colony,
district or people with whom the United States
are at peace, it shall be forfeited, and those en-
gagged in the enterprise fined and imprisoned.
The history Of these vessels sis as follows:
IN August last, the United States Marshal took
formal possession of thirty gunboats, then build
ing at Mystic, Conn.,, and New York city, for
the government of Spain. The seizure was
made by order of the President, on the repre-
sentation of the Peruvian government that these
vessels were or might be designed to be used in
war against Peru, n nation at peace with u.s.
No hindrance was offered TO the completion and
hitting of the gunboats; but they were not to be
permitted to go to sea without further orders
Now the vessels are ready for the sea. and the
spanish authorities have a fun complement of
men engaged to man them I'm order to send the
whole fleet to make what is intended to he a
crushing demonstration against the Cuban pa
