SPANISH GUNBOATS BLUFFE0

Copyright 1898. by the Associated PressD
Key West, Fla, June 2.-7:50 a. m.-The
tug Leyden, which has been scouting
along the northern coast of Cuba, had an
adventure with three small Spanish gun
boats at Cardenas yesterday.
The Leyden has been playing hide and
seek with the enemys gunboats for soma
time, without an encounter. Yesterday
morning before daybreak she ran into
Cardenas harbor to a point within five
miles Of the city. There are two parallel
lines of keys and the Leyden had just
skirted the outside line when she sighted
three Spanish gunboats beyond the inner
line, slowly moving towards the sea. The
tug sent in a couple of shots from her six
FOUNDER but the Spaniards evidently
thought she was backed up by big war
ships, for they promptly withdrew without
replying to the challenge of the bold lit
tie craft, which scudded out to sea again.
The Leyden also confirms the story of
the attack and destruction of two block
houses between MatanZas and Cardenas,
an account of which was given yesterday
by the auxiliary gunboat Uncas, formerly
the Walter A Lukenback. which had par
ticipated in the miniature bombardmenI.
The Leyden lost a gaff during the fight.
but was otherwise uninjured.
The Spaniards, it is announced, are fill
ing Cardenas harbor with old huks. boil
ers and other distractions in order to
prevent any effective entrance Of the
American ships.

NO TROOPS LEAVING TAMPA

Tampa Fla, June 2.--There is but lltt4e
change IN the general situation here. 1t
can be stated positively that no troops
have been embarked at this point and
until definite and official news is received
from the fleets of Sampson and Schley.
1t is the generally expressed opinion
among the army officers that no move
ment of troops from here IN the direction
of Cuba viii DO ordered. The powerful
fleet of Admiral Cervera is still much of
a factor. II is stated that thers IS no
intention on the part of the authorities
to assume any more risks than absolutely
necessary in sending - big feet of pra:-
tically unarmed and therefore nearly help
less transports into Cuban waters. For
this reason, until the Spanish hotllla is
disposed Of, or until a sufficient number
of United States warships can be spared
to insure protection for the transports
from Tampa TO their destination, no move
from here is expected. When this will
be is uncertain, but although nothing otti-
cial can be learned on this point, It IS
not believed any large movement will take
place in the immediate future.
The work of paying off the troops at
Tampa was commenced today.
