Cecretary Gresham Sends a Lively
Note to Spain.
American Vessels Cannot he Fired on OF
Molested on tho High Seas-A senss-
tionai Report as to Other
Outrageous Acts.
Uncle sam shows His Teeth.


WASHINGTON, March l6.-rhe state
department officials admit the correct
ness of the Madrid cable showing See.
retary Gresham had made protest and
demand for disclaimer and an apology
on the Spanish government for the fir
ing upon the Alliance. 1t is too
early yet to expect response from
Mr.. Taylor, but il it does come it is
rather expected it will indicate a
desire by the Spanish government
for a proper opportunity to ascertain
the facts before taking action in the
matter But this, it is said at the de-
partment, win scarcely avail in the
present cause, unless the message con-
veys some assurance on the part of the
Spanish government that it has in
structed its naval commanders to re-
fra in from further interference with
vessels flying the American flag.
The notable feature of Secretary
Gresham's dispatch is found in his
statement that when an American ves-
sci is on her usual route the fact that
she is inside or outside of the emile
limits does not affect the merits of the
case. From this it is apparent that the
secretary has taken his stand on the
decision of the Alabama claims COM
mission, which was practically new
dictum in international law, for it had
been the rule previous to that decision
to regard as beyond question the right
of a nation to retain suspicious vessels
passing within the limits of 3 miles
from its COASTS over which its marine
jurisdiction extended.

Gus reply to the state department with

Sensational Report.
KEY WEST, Fla, March 20.-Sensa-
tional reports of the aggressivencss of
Spanish warships off the coast of Cuba
have been received here and, if these
are reliable-and there is no reason to
doubt them-the Allianca affair will
soon seem comparatively insignificant.
According to a letter received ycstcr-
day, the Spanish gunboat Alcedeo fired
upon and sank an American schooner
supposed to be the Golden Kind of Key
West, on its way to a Cuban port for
fruit. Sixteen men were on the sunk
vessel and it is feared that all were
lost. The attack occurred off the port
of Puerto Padre.
Last night a vessel engaged in the
cattle trade between this place and the
mainland reported that the schooner
Irene had been fired upon and disa abled
by the Spanish cruiser Infanta Isabel.
The Irene was small schooner, en-
ployed in the fish trade, and was on its
way to the fish ranch at Punta Gorda.
1t is said that the Spanish cruiser fol-
lowed it from here and fired upon it on
the high seas. Whether any lives were
lost Is not known at present.
