warships Ordered to Nicaragua.

WASHINGTON. April 2.-It appears that this administration intends to back up it's support uf tho Monroe doctrine, so far as tho controversy between Great Britain and Nicaragua k concerned, with a dem onstration of naval force. It is learned from high and trustw worthy sources that instead of proceeding on its cruise in tho loiSurcly fashion originally planned Ad- miral MuadcS entire squadron, which was ordered to sail from Kingston on Saturday for Colon, will consist on arrival at the iSthmus of tho New York, Minneapolis Columbia Atlanta Raleigh and Cincin- nati. To these will soon bc added tho Montgomery, which is about to sail for Havana.
 At the Same time the Ranger is about duo at Panama, on the Pacific side of tho isthmuS while the pOndcrouS coast defense monitor the Monterey, which has been ordered from California to Callao, Peru, will stop at Panama for coal. Tho blue jackets on tho vessels at Panama, in Pa cific waters could quickly send re enforce ments if thought desirable by way of the Panama railroad to Admiral Mcades squadron at Colon. Such a concentration of United States warships near the isth- mus is unprecedented and is sure to at tract tho attention of other nations which arc watching with keen interest the dip lomatic skirmishing betwccn this govern ment and Great Britain over the claims of tho latter against Nicaragua for tho cx- pulsion of British Nicc Consul Hatch from Bluc1eldS and tho arrest of other British citizens thCrC
 The importance of this announcement is increased by the sig nifiCant statement that notice formally given out by the navy department as tO the forwarding of mail for officers and mon under Admiral Moade's command is intended as a blind. This notice states that Admiral Meade has telcgraphcd from Kingston to send mail for his squadron from Now York on the vessel sailing from New York for Colon April 10
 This date should be tho 11th, when a vessel belonging to the same line as tho AllianclL which was fired upon off Capo Maysi, Cuba, by ST~niSh gunboat. is scheduled to leave New York for Colon. The Press correspondent has learned that when this steamer bearing tho mails reache, Colon on about April Is it will not find Admiral Meadc's squadron wait ing there for letters. On tho contrary, the squadron will long before that date have reached BluutieldS.
