LOOKING FOR MERCHANTMEN.
Spanish Warship Cruising Off the
HaYtien Coast.

Port Au Prince, Hayti, April PA
Spanish warship was sighted yesterday
to the southwark of Jeremie, on the
southwest peninsula of Hayti about
125 miles east of this place; she was
lowering about the coast.
She was too far distant for her num-
Der of guns to be ascertained, but she
is probably the same vessel reported
from Fortune Island as being off Cape
Maysi, the eastern extremity of the
province of Santiago de Cuba last
week. 1t is claimed here that she has
been making tour of the Haytien
coast looking for merchantmen.

FLEET AT CAPE VERDE.
Why 1t May Go Back to Spain and
Invite a Fight There.

Washington, April 21,-It seems to
be the commoD understanding that
in view of the action of the Spanish
government, there is now no reason
for delay on the part of our govern
ment in acting upon the joint resolu-
ton directing intervention, for the re-
fusal of the Spanish government to
receive the communication, knowing
it's character, is to be construed only
as a refusal of it's conditions. Move
ments. of our army and navy, there
fore. will follow and it will not be
necessary to wait until Saturday noon.
1t is still absolutely unknown to any
one outside the administration circles
here, and even in that case only TO a
few, how the campaign should be d.
rected, and any attempt to Outline
publicly it's details is bitterly resented

Spain Reaped No Advantage.

Washington, April 21.-Diplomati-
cally, it is probably true that the Unit
ed States ultimatum has never officially
reached the Spanish government, for
the copy delivered yesterday to the
Spanish minister at Washington can
scarcely be regarded. in a technical
sense, as a formal communication, but
rather as a piece of information COM
INUNDATED through courtesy.
1t is not perceived, however, that any
substantial advantage has been reaped
by the Spanish government in prevent
ing the formal delivery of the ulti-
matum through Mr.. WOodford. al
though it may be that they have techni-
cally escaped what they regard as an
attempted insult to the Spanish nation.

BANKING AND CURRENCY.
Two Republican House Members
Who Disagree With Majority.

Washington, April 21.-It is under
stood that ten of the 10 Republican
members of the house committee on
banking and currency have reported
an agreement to vote for the general
currency bill reported by the McLeary
subcommittee. The recalcitrants are
Messrs. Brossius of Pennsylvania and
Van Voorhees, of Ohio. They are said
TO favor the proposition to reduce the
tax on banks from l to II per cent, to
allow banks to issue currency to the
par of bonds, and allow banks to be
organized with $4,000 capital in towns
of less than 1000 population, but dis
agree with some Of the other features
and believe the administration recon-
mendation should have been followed.
AT least one of the majority will, how
ever, change his vote when the bill is
brought up in the house, desiring to get
it before the full house as early as pos
sible. 10 sssssass

says:

NOT TO BE STARVED OUT.
Havana Can Stand a Siege For Five
Months.

New York, April 21.-Among commits
sion merchants it is a we'll known fact
that agents Of the Spanish government
have been active in buying provisions
in this city within the last few weeks.
Every vesse! which has sailed for Ha-
Vana recently has been loaded with
corn, flour, beans, bacon, potatoes and
lard, all for feeding the Spanish SOL
ciers.
The supplies are all shipped osten-
sibly to merchants in Havana, but on
their arrival there they are taken in
charge by the Spanish quartermaster
general. Steamers which have left this
port since April IS have landed enough
provisions in Havana to last the Span
ish soldiers and citizens for three
months. Add to this the cargoes of the
Aloodene and the Bergen, and there will
be enough food in Havana to prevent
starvation for five months.

gathered in front of the building or
the Equitable Life Insurance company

The civil governor of Madrid, Senior
Aguilar instead of prohibiting dis
order, allowed complete liberty of ac-
ton, mingling among the demonstra-
tors. He was loudly cheered, especially
when the American escutcheon was
thrown from the balcony of the
Equitable building and fell at his very
feet. Aguilar, as he tramped upon the
escutcheon, addressed the people amid
enthusiastic applause.
He said: 1.-The Spanish lion is
reused from his slumberS and he will
shake his name and dispense the rest
of the brute creation"
The demonstration then continued, a
part of the mob proposing to demon

ton, which is now under the protection
of the British. 1t is hoped, at the time
this dispatch is sent, that the crowd
