NEWSPAPER BOATS SHUT OUT
Their Presence Inimical to Proper
Conduct of a Naval Campaign.

Washington, May 25.-In addition to
the belated policy of censorship adopt
ed in regard to the transmission of re-
--rtG Cf naval movements hV +elaer0 nh
IL appears that the navy department
has decided Ia dispense with the at
tendance of newspaper dispatch boats
upon the fleet in Cuban waters.
The information rea ches here that be-
fore the beginning of the recent opera
tion of the squadrons of Sampson and
Schley against the Spanish fleet. noti-
fication was given to all the newspa-
per boats which have been watching
and reporting the blockade that they
would not be allowed to follow the
warships on their cruise. The notice
was peremptory, it is understood and
it's strict enforcement is supposed here
to account for the lack of news from
the fleets, which has amounted to
famine for the last week. Had the
newspaper boats been with Sampson
and Schley on their cruise in pursuit of
the Spanish flying squadron it is reason
ed that the telegraphic censorship at
Florida points would not have prevent
ed the receipt of information by other
routes. from some one of the many ca
bic stations in the West Indies.
The permission given by the navy de-
partment TO the dispatch boats to fol-
low the fleets on previous cruises has
been very seriously criticised heSe as

by single ships until the whole fleet was
gobbled up. 1t is calculated by naval
officers that the Spanish fleet has now
about exhausted its fuel, and that it
cannot undertake the difficult task of
retreating. The only honorable out
come to Spain is for Spain's ships to
try conclusions at once, while the coal
bunkers and the food supplies are not
completely exhausted.
There will be no news from Sampson

laugh at the suggestion that if Cervera
slip the vessels of SIMPSONS and
Schley's fleets would be again with
drawn to Key West to be used as con-
vOys to protect the transports in mov-
ing the army to Cuba, leaving Cervera
to stay in these waters or to return, as
he pleases-
Admiral Sampson" said a naval Off
Ger of experience and spirit, sis reas-
Onab1y free to move and act as he
chooses. He has the opportunity to
carve a place in our history alongside
that of Dewey. You will not catch him
coming back empty handed to hear the
jibes of a disappointed people. Expla-
nations will be of no avail if he does
not render a good account of himself
under his instruction to seek and de-
explanations will never be asked for
by anybody. And l think that tomor-
row will bring the opportunity for us to
cheer for Sampson and Schley along

six regiments with 5,328 men on the
field. Pennsylvania, which ranks next,
also has six regiments but a slightly
smaller number of men. AS far as
equipment is concerned the army will
be ready to move on Cuba within fif-
teen days.
Capt Rockwell, chief ordnance officer
of the army, states that he has received
notice that ample equipment will arrive
during the next few days. A half mil
lion rounds of ammunition have already
arrived and the balance of the equip
ment will come as fast as the roads can
haul it. The row of stands, reStau-
rants, ETC., located just outside the park
near the battlefield station is assuming
large proportions. It is known as the
Midway and is literally patronized.

struction.

were sent to the park yesterday. Ex-
cellent order is now being preserved,
both in the park and in the city. The
two New Hampshire boys put on the

ing ladies a few days ago, will probably
be released, as it is believed they have
been sufficiently punished.

Washington, May 25-The president
has issued a proclamation calling for
75, ,00O volunteers. This will make the
total army strength regulars and vol
unteers $50, 900.
The proclamation is as follows:

listed between the United States Of

is at Seattle. A large number of ships
have been offered to the department at
reasonable rates, but they were in such
condition that the officials promptly re-
fused them on the ground that it would
not be safe to send troops in them.
Should the government decide to ask
that an American registry be given to
all six vessels of the Northern Pacific
Steamship company and they be Sc
cured for transport purposes, these with
the five ships already secured and the
China, Colon and Ohio, would furnish
accommodations, it is believed, for be-
tween 5000 and 1900 men-Just about
the number which the war department
will send to Admiral Dewey. An earn
est effort will be made to secure the
American boats but it is very plainly
set forth by Mr.. Meiklejohn that the
officials will not lose further unnecessary
time, but will instead ask that Ameri-
can registry be given to certain foreign
vessels or else impress American
steamers into service.
The advices received today at the de-
partment were that the Pekin, Sydney
and Australia would sail from San
Francisco for Manila tonight.

newspaper correspondents having been
put on their honor not to give informa-
ton of operations that can assist the
enemy in the slightest particular.
All the talk in the meeting of the cab
met today indicated the confidence of
the administration in the early receipt
of good news from Admiral Sampson.
One cabinet officer, who expressed the
greatest eagerness to hear from Samp-
son and Schley, and who has no doubt
that the news, when it comes, will be
great" admitted that the outside limit
of time in which it was expected that
the vessels of the United States and
Spain must meet, had passed, and that
official information might arrive at any
moment either that Cervera was bottled
up or that his fleet was at the bottom
of the ocean.
Il do not look first for unofficial in
formation" said he, for the reason
that the commanding officer of the Uni
ted States forces has concluded that
he can get along quiteas well and with
out as much possibility of injurious OBJ
servation if he excludes newspaper
boats as he~haS done"
The administration is determined that
stroy the Spanish fleet. If he does that
if CerVera will not fight, but manifeStS
a determination to get away and return
to Spain, to follow him up and ''kill'
his fleet before it can reach its own side
of the Atlantic. To do this might re-
Ouire the sending of several ships along
with the United States fleet for some
distance, but if any accident should
happen to any of the Spanish vessels,
or the supply of coal should run out,
Admiral CerVera would have to run the
disabled vessel in the hope of getting
off with others, or perhaps be overtaken

proceeding. 1t has given risen to con-

who is said to have derived considera-
BILE amusement from the spectacle of

criticism have resulted in the decision
of the navy department to exclude the
boats is mot known, but the decision is
generally commended as a wise one.
The presence of the newspaper craft
may not have done any harm, it is
pointed out, so long as the naval opera
tions were confined to a peaceful block
ade, but now that a serious naval cam
paign is on it is recognized that it is
the part of wisdom to free the fleet from
such espionage.

Chattanooga, May 25.-Battle exercis-

began today's work at Chickamauga.
The exercises began at o'clock and
were witnessed by Inspector General
Breckenridge and many other officers.
The First and Second brigade of the
division assaulted the Third brigade,
which was entrenched on Snodgrass
Hill, and a highly exciting as well as
a very creditable sham battle occurred.
By actual count the number of men
now in Chickamauga park is 38,8S4.
There are thirty-five regiments of in

terieS of artillery. Ohio has furnished
the greatest number of men. She has

Southern States Fail to Secure Their
Quota-Time Extended.

Washington, May 25.-One hundred
and twelve thousand men have now
been mustered into the volunteer army
of the United States and the official re-
ports show that a majority of these
are ready to move to the front. Over
tWo-thirds of the states have entirely
completed their muSters and are pre-
pared to begin anew the work just
completed. The failure of some of the
states, notably four or five in the south,
to furnish the men called for up to
this time, is a surprise to the army of
ficers on duty here. but is ascribed not
to a lack of patriotism but to a belief
probably shared by many of the na-
tional guardsmen who had home ties
and business connections which they
could not we'll afford to give up,
that plenty of others not so en-
numbered would readily be found to
take their places.
Ample time will be given the states
referred to, to fill the apportionment
made by the war department and the
expectation here is that this will be ac-
complished without further unneces-
sary delay. Should any of the states
default, the probability is that the fact
will be reported to congress formally
by the secretary of war for such action
as may be deemed best under the cir
cumstances. No resort can be had to
draft measures, without authority
therefor from the national legislature.
