The Ocean Outrage.
WASHINGTON, July 21st.-The State De
partment is in receipt of information that the
vessel which recently fred upon two Ameri-
can schooners in Cuban waters was the Canto,
small screw steamer belonging to the
Spanish navy. No formal presentation of the
case will be made to the Spanish Government
until the report of Admiral Wyman, who was
yesterday ordered with the Tennessee to Ha-
vana, has been received. Though the Spanish
authorities have thus far denied that the
firing was done by any vessel of the Spanish
navy, Assistant Secretary Hay is of the opin-
ion that such denial was based upon the fact
that neither of the previous reports of the affair
correctly stated the name of the offending
vessel. He is of the opinion, now that the
fact os the firing and theidentity of the vessel
can be fully established, that the Spanish
authorities will set up in Justification the
claim they have always made of their right to
FIRE upon or detain suspicious vessels within
two marine leagues of their shores. As our
Government has always resisted this claim,
there is no reason to suppose any departure
will he made in the present case from the
usual policy. 1t is believed the whole matter
will be formally discussed at tie Cabinet
meeting Friday.
The south American War.
New YORK, July 2lst.-"I have received
no information relative to the condition of
the war in Peru for several days, said Senor
Asia Buraza, the Chilean Minister, to-day.
"Of course / should hear of any important
action taken on either side-if a truce or
any armistice should be concluded between
the combators, or if the Ckileans should ad-
vance on Lima or commence its lombard
ment If both powers should decide to ac-
cept the offered mediation of the United
States l would be informed at once" He
thought right and Chile would triumph
The State Department has heard nothing
from Minister Christancy, and supposes that
no important change has occurred in the
status of either side. 1t is hoped that the
mediation will be accepted and the war end.
