New York, Feb. 26.-Unless some I'M

the Spanish man-of-war Vizcaya which
has been lying off Tomplinsville, S. L.,
since Sunday, will weigh anchor to-
day and steam through the narrows to
the open sea on her way direct to
Havana, Arturo BaldasanO, the Span
ish sul-general in New York, called
on Capt. Eulate and took to him I'M
portant dispatches, one of which Or
dcred him to leave this port without
delay.
Capt Eulate had been in suspense
about the time Of his, sailing until the
consul general called upon him, but the
order was not unexpected, and all day
he had the vessels crew preparing for
Il voyage. The work of coaling was
continued, with every available man
handling the buckets, so that early in
the morning the ships bunkers will be
packed full.
Seamen We're also kept busy putting
the ship in snug shape for cruising at
