LONDON. ENG, Oct. 4. A leading
London diplomat, discussing the crisis in

the change in the Spanish Cabinet will

Weyler from Cuba and the substitution

Sagasta has been informed on authority
that the Cubans will accept autonomy

Government Reaching Out for Ves-
sells That Can Be Turned Into
Cruisers for the Navy.
NEW YORK, N. Y, Oct. 4-According
to an article which will appear in the
Bridgeport Union tomorrow morning,
notification was sent by the Secretary
yesterday to the owners of a number OF
large steamships and steam yachts of the
Atlantic coast. asking for immediate in
formation as to the speed, capacity and
lighting strength of their vessels, and
for other complete data, with view to
their being enrolled as auxiliary cruisers
of the navy.
1t IS said in the Union that further re-
quest was made that the owners hold
themselves in readiness to turn the ves-
sci over 10 the Government a, moments
notice.
One of the ships which the Government
might turn into warship is the John
EngIis, Captain Albert Bragg of the Port
land line, which is the largest vessel
that regularly passes through Long
Island Sound. Captain Bragg says
he received his notification yester-
day and prepared the desired
information. Captain Bragg also stated
that before he left New YORK for Portland
the Government would have all the data
required concerning the John Englis.
A similar order, it is understood, had
been received yesterday by the captain of
the steamer Rosedale.
What adds interest to this notification
is a dispatch from Berlin printed in a
New York German paper yesterday to the
effect that the Kaiser has for some time
determined TO send a message of in
tervention or assistance to the Queen
Regent of Srain, and TIE sudden activity
OF the Government Is therefore, 1T seem,
reasonable to believe says the Union,
