A CERTAINTY
No Longer Any Doubt That the
Spanish Fleet Is in Santiago
Harbor.
Schley Quoted as Saying He Had
Them and They Would Never
Get Home.
An Official Report Sent to the
Navy Department by the
Commodore,
In the Course Of Which He Says
He Has Seen the Enemy's
Ships.

MOLE ST. NICHOLAS, May 3l.-The
following dispatch has been received
here from the correspondent of the
Associated Press with the American
feet off Santiago de Cuba:
"Of Santiago de Cuba. May 20
Commodore Schley and the flying
squadron has the Spanish feet safe
in the harbor of Santiago de Cuba.
BY the most clever Ihaneuvering the
commodore allowed the Spaniards to
think he had left in disgust. They
took the bait and ran into the harbor.
Commodore Schley moved down this
morning, and at 6 o'clock, going close
to the harbor, he saw the Christobal
Colon, the Maria Teresa and two tor
pedo boats.
Commodore Schley has acted upon
his own information and Judgment for
the past six, days and believes the
whole Spanish fleet is there.
tHe sat on the after triangle of the
Brooklyn this morning until after the
discovery of the fleet, and he then
went to breakfast, saying:
81 have got them, and they will
never get home"
The United States auxiliary cruiser
st. Paul has arrived here and was sent
to the Mole St. Nicholas with dis.
patches. She captured coal ship,
which was sent to Key West by Cap
tain Sigsbee, in charge of prize crew.
The coal was undoubtedly intended
for the Spanish feet. It is believed
there is not much coal at Santiago de
Cuba.
The officers and men of the flying
squadron are jubilant over the fact
that the location of the Spanish feet
has finally been definitely established.
The temperature here is ITO in the
shade, and in the steel turrets the heat
is actually beyond the power of imagi-
nation.
The American ships here are the
Brooklyn, Texas, Massachusetts, Iowa.

His Instructions Said to Give

British Cruiser Pique Reports
Everything Quiet at Manila

NEW YORK, May S1.-The state de-
partment has mailed to General Mer-
rift his exhaustive instructions for the
government of the Philippines, says
the Washington correspondent of the
Tribune. These embody not only full
details for the control Of the military
and naval forces in establishing United
States sovereignty over the Philippine
group, which were prepared by the
war and navy departments for in.
corporation in the instructions, but
are understood to clothe the command
ing general with greater discretionary
powers than have ever up to this time
been granted to an agent of this gov
eminent. Except in his relations with
foreign powers growing out of possible
complications in the East, which are to
be referred to Washington for negotia-
ton, General Merritt's control of
affairs will be practically supreme.
The instructions throughout bear every.
evidence that the United States in
tends to preserve permanent control of
the islands.
In this connection it is understood

By direction of the president formal
orders have been prepared for issue,
adding 5000 men to the Department of
the Pacific, under Major General Mer-
rift, thereby increasing the strength of
his force to 10000 men. While Gen.
eral Merritt was promised week ago
that this increase would be made if pos
sible, difficulties of an apparently in
surmountable character were presented
and it was only upon success achieved
by the war department in securing the
execution of certain contracts much
earlier than anticipated that it was
found possible to redeem the promise.

ALL DOUBT REMOVED.

Schley Notifies the Navy Department. That
Cervera Is at San tiago.
WASHINGTON, May Sat 1890
o'clock the navy department. received a
dispatch from Commodore Schley an.
nouncing definitely that he had located
Admiral Ceryera's Cape Verde squad.
ron in the bay OF Santiago de Cuba.
The commodore states that he has seen
and recognized the vessels of the Span
ish fleet.
While the naval officials have been
morally certain for several days that
Cervera's squadron was in the harbor
of Santiago the official announcement
from Commodore Schley was received
by the officers on duty at the depart.
ment with intense satisfaction. Assur-
ance is now doubly sure that the
Spanish Fleet Is Bottled Up.
and that the cork-is in the bottle. It
is not believed that Admiral Cervera
will attempt to escape from the pre-
dicament in which he now finds him
self, asssuch a course would surely re-
suit in the. destruction Of his vessels
and the loss Of many lives precious to
Spain. The suggestion is made, how.
ever, that the Spaniards may blow mp
their ships rather than have them fall
into the hands of Schley, as they GER
tainly will if they remain in the har-
Dor.
The defniteness of Commodore
Schley's dispatch would indicate that
he has effected landing near Santi.
ago and made personal inv estigation
Of the harbor. It would be impossible
from the entrance to the bay to def
nitely see and recognize the Spanish
vessels but by effecting q landing at
some point on
Either Side of the Entrance
q vantage point could be gained very
likely from which the entire harbor
could be examined. In all probability
Commodore Schley or one OF his trusted
officers has successfully perfor med this
undertaking in order to obtain the val
liable information contained in his dis
patch.
What effect the certainty that Ger
vera is practically helpless will have
upon the plans of the administration
with reference to the invasion Of Cuba
can only be conjectured. The trans
portation of land forces to the island.
it is understood, was delayed because
Of the uncertainty concerning the loca-
ton Of the Spanish squadron. Il that
understanding is correct the probability
of an early invasion Of Cuba Is strong.

ISOLATED with him in the mission work

ing from mission to Rome, had re-
NAMED for ten weeks with friend in
England, and become converted On
returning to this country and to New
Mexico. he was reordained, and started
out to preach and work under Methodist
auspices. But the man did SO mapy
queer things and said SO many gu. er
things, that he finally bad to be
brought to trial before church coun-
Gil. The accused avoided further
trouble in this like by declining to ap-
pear, and was officially relt ased from
any further connection with the Meth
Odist church. Then the ex-priest went
to Ell Paso where he united with the
Baptists. and what he has done since,
DR.. Harwood thought Ell Paso Leople

The musical part of the service was
marked by two tenor solos from Mr..
Parsons who has removed to this city
from Los Angeles to live, and is now a
member of the First Methodist choir.
Mr.. Parsons is a valued addition to the
choir.
