to be correct and her German register was
established. She was turned back. The
action Of the fleet in refusing to allow the
German vessel to enter Havana shows that
the blockade is practically established
The fleet captured another prize yester-
day afternoon, the schooner Mathilde, of
Havana, laden with rum. The schooner was
taken by the torpedo boat Porter after ..
lively chase, during which a number Of
solid shots were fred. A prize crew from
the flagship was put on board the schooner,
but no ship could be spared to tow her and
she was brought into Key West in tow Of
the Associated Press dispatch boat Daunt-
less. which arrived about midnight. The
Dauntless reports that the feet has been
divided. The Nashville and the Machias or
Castne sailed west at 10 o'clock yesterday
morning while the Amphitrte and Puritan.
the Cincinnati and the Castine or Machias
sailed east later. The rest Of the fleet at
$3.50 o'clock in the afternoon was blockad-
ing Havana, which is distant ten miles to
the southwark.

an army General Gomez can bring to his
assistance, how strong in numbers how well
drilled and how effective for actual opera
tions. Estimates, speculation and paper
counts will not do The men must show up
and give American officers a chance TO size
them up and take their measure as fight
ers. That is the only way to ascertain just
what to expect in the way of cooperation
from the insurgents in the fight we have
undertaken in their behalf. According to
the best information obtainable the Cuban
insurgent army in the field, armed and
equipped for service, is said to number
about 1000 men. If arms and supplies are
landed by the Americans 1000 more can
be put in the field in few days by General
Gomez, commander-in-chief of the insur-
gent forces. The insurgent troops are scat
tered throughout the eastern section of the
island. Gen. Calixto Garcia has about 1000
men in the provinces of Santiago de Cuba
and Puerto Principe. Gen Maximo Gomez
has about 1900 men in Santa Clara. There
are 5000 insurgents in Havana province
1900 in Pinar del Rio and 5000 in Matanzas
are well armed and well sup
piled with ammunition. Their greatest
need is clothing. The army is in rags and
presents a very dismal appearance 1t is
said that General Gomez maintains COM
muncation by means of post routes and
courier service established throughout the
insurgent provinces, by which means he can
communicate speedily with the Cubans who
have not Joined the army up to this time,
but who are ready and willing to swell its
ranks soon port is opened to them
and arms and ammunition can be furnished
them.
The navy will maintain continual block
ade of the Cuban ports and will back up
the land force occupying the base of mill
tary operations. 1t is expected in Congress
that ii may be two or three weeks before
there is any lighting by land forces on the
island of Cuba. While the orders to the
squadron do not contemplate their provok
ing fight, it is realized that an engage
ment of some sort is possible to occur N
any time, and it is not thought to be prob
able that more than two or three days can
go by without an exchange of shots. The
expectation, however, is that the principal
operations for the next two or three weeks
will be directed toward the destruction Of
commerce. There is no doubt about the
blockade Of the Cuban ports being made
effective. and there is likely to be almost

KEY WEST. Fla. April 24.-The North
Atlantic squadron is now blockading Ha-
vana and other Cuban ports and the block
ade is effective. Four Spanish ships have
so far been captured-the Buena Ventura,
the Pedro, the Mathilde and a fishing
smack. The government has taken control
of the telegraph wires at this point and all
press matter will be handled subject to the
decision of the censor. Telegraphic COM
muncation with Havana has been aban-
doned, and the only advices received from
the fleet come by boats. The torpedo boat
Ericsson arrived here from the fleet off Ha-
vana yesterday afternoon. She reported
that when she left Havana, at 10 o'clock
in the morning, there had been no lombard
ment, and the fleet had established peace
full blockade.
The Spanish tramp steamer Pedro, Cap
tain Bonet, from Antwerp on March % for
Santa Cruz and Pensacola, which was cap
tured by the United States flagship New
York. was brought in here yesterday under
her own steam, but in charge of prize crew
in charge Of Lieutenant Capehart. She is
owned by the Navigation Company, of
Bilbao, is of 1,62S tons net register. is about
$50 feet long, has over 3S feet beam, and
nearly % feet depth of hold. She was built
at Newcastle in 1883, and had on board
crew of thirty-six men.
The capture of the steamer Pedro was
made in this way: The torpedo boat Foote
was scouting about twelve miles off Havana
shortly after o'clock Friday afternoon
The weather was hazy. Suddenly the Foote
signaled the New York that a strange ship
had been sighted, and the flagship started
out. Wiser than the Buena Ventura, when
she saw the flagship heading for her the
Spaniard scudded away at a fast clip.
The New York then fired the usual first
shot as a signal to heave TO, but the Pedro
continued on her course Then came a pref
ty chase. The cruiser fired several more
small guns at the fleeing vessel, and finally
she sent solid shot across her bows This

citement prevailed on the Spaniard and her
decks were crowded with men scurrying
about like frightened rats as the New York's
men clambored up the side of the ship.
Meantime the Foote had sighted a German /
coasting vessel and signaled to the flagship. |
and shot was put across the vessels bows.
No resistance was offered and the New
Yorks men boarded her. found her papers |

Special to the Indianapolis Journal,
WASHINGTON, April 2s.-Under the call
for 125,OOO volunteers, issued by the
President to-day, Indiana's allotment
will approximate or slightly exceed
1000 The exact quota has not been
figured out at the War Department,
but it will not be, far from 1900.
On Monday Governors of States will be for
mally notified by the secretary of war. The
army reorganization bill passed by the
House this afternoon, gives form and sys-
tenn to the newly-created volunteer army.
The reorganization bill, when it becomes a
law, will make operative that enacted yes
terday-wiIl give it vital force as it were.
Confusion would have been saved if the or
der of the passage OF the two bills had been
reversed AS matters stand, the first bill is
defective in some respects, but these ap-
parent weaknesses will be cured by the
measures now being rushed through Con-
gress.
The regular army will have to bear the
burden of the hard campaigning and hard
fighting at the outset of the war, if there
should be need Of rough work. The regu-
lars are seasoned men, Injured to hard
usage, while the volunteers are what is
known as "soft'-that is to say most of
them are not in training, as the word is un-
derstood in the school of athletics, and a few
weeks or even months in preparation for
the privations of Cuban campaign might
not be i'll spent. The time will not be
wasted.
The plan of war as roughly decided upon
is for the regular army. in part or whole,
to be landed at one or two advantageous
points in Cuba which win serve as bases
of military and relief operations, and hold
the places against attack until the insur-
gents can be equipped and drilled accord
ing to American ideas A way will be
opened so that the insurgents can join the
forces of the United States and be counted.

ARRIVAL OF THE FLEET.
Appearance OF the War Ships Caused
Much Excitement in Havana


Copyright, 1898. by the Associated Press)
HAVANA, April %, $40 p. m. delayed in
transmission AT 4:45 Friday afternoon the
semaphore signaled that fleet had been
sighted on the eastern side of the island.
1t was said to be without any cnlors to
show it's nationality. From the front Of
Mcrro Castle the correspondent of the As
sociated Press saw smoke In the distance
and soon afterward he made out three ves-
sells on the horizon. At that time La Punta,
the fort on the side of the harbor opposite
Morro Castle. was crowded with curious
people, Including many ladies. In addition
crowds of people could be seen at various
points of vantage, many of them gathering
on the roofs of houses.
At 6 D. M the semaphore signaied that
it was the United States fleet which was
in sight and at 615 red flag was run up
at the signal station, warning guns were
fired from Morro Castle and afterwards
from Cabanas fortress adjoining it. This
caused excitement throughout the city and
was the first real note of war. When the
first signal came from the semaphore sta
tion a British schooner which was in the
harbor put to sea. She was Immediately fol-
lowed by the German steamer Remus.
Some time afterwards the American steam-
er Saratoga put TO sea.
The cannon shots from the fcrtresses
stirred up the regular troops and volunteers
throughout Havana and it's vicinity, and
there was a rush TO quarters The signal
guns from the Notifications echoed to the
palace and through che streets, causing peo-
pie to rush from the houses, with the result
that all the thoroughfares were soon
crowded with excited inhabitants
Captain General Blanco heard the shots
while at the palace. to which place the gem
erals and commanders of the volunteers
promptly reported full of excitement and
warlike enthusiasm. Some time afterwards
the captain general, accompanied by his
staff, the generals and others, left the palace
and was warmly acclaimed by the soldiers
and popuace, The general then made
brief final inspection of the fortihcations

The Journal this morning received a dis

news that MORO Castle had opened fire on
the blockading squadron at Havana, but
that the fire was not returned by the vessels

last night that the blockade was to be what
