Coils About Havana.

WASHINGTON, July "a more
stringent enforcement of the Cuban
blockade, especially around Havana
and places on the south coast that
have railroad communication with Ha-
Vana, Will be instituted by the gov
ernment Immediately. There has NOT
been any blockade running that the
government knows of, but with the
release OF so many American vessels
from Santiago, now that Cervera's
1ieet has been destroyed, the presi
cent and his advisers believe that IL
Will be we'll to strengthen the BLOCK

The main reason for this decision is
that the Tightening of the coil around
havana will make conditions in that
place so unbearable that Blanco will ba

SPANISH SCANDAL.
Charges of Corruption Against
Former Governor OH PhfIfppfn es.

Charges of Corruption Against
Former Governor OH Philippines.
PARIS, July "a sensational state
ment has been made by E. Heraldo, of
Madrid. This paper states that formal
charges of wholesale robbery of gov
ernment money and completely in the
ipsurrection have been made against
Gen. Fernando Primo de Rivera, for
merly captain general of the Philip
pines. The charges also allege that
Primo de Rivera, in addition to ap-
propriating public money to his own
use, made large sums by selling deco
rations and titles Of nobility to wealthy
residents OF Manila. Primo de Rivera
was recently given direction of the
work of recruiting soldiers for use in
the war in Cuba, and before he had
completed that task the enormous
amounts Of his expenditures had been
made the subject of public comklant
and private charges. Nothing was done
In the matter then, however, and the
former captain general has maintained
his high position in the councils Of the
monarchy until now. The present
charges are made against him by Senor
Muro, member of the late chamber
Of deupties, and are substantiated by
letters and documents, which Senor
Muro has laid before the authorities.
The formal charges allege that Primo
de Rivera misappropriated the large
government sums Of money which were
placed at his disposal while he was gov
ernor Of the Philippines, and that after
negotiating terms of peace with Agui-
naldO, the insurgent leader, in cons.d-
Grafton of certain sums of money, he
placed the money in his own pocket
The papers contain the names Of
large number Of residents of Manila
fvay how brtr III
sums Of money in consideration Of IT,
ties which he obtained for them from
the court Of Madrid.
The name of Senior Palermo, Of Mani
Ia Is given as the former governors
right-hand man and the principal COM
missioner. Among the documents Is
one which shows that Primo de Rivera
offered Palermo the title Of duke and
an annual income amounting to $780,
900, in consideration of which Paterno
was to act as his agent in negotiating
the sales of titles and decorations to
other residents Of the islands.
Gen. Primo de Rivera, while in COM
mand of the islands, secured an agree
ment from Aguinaldo and other insur-
gent leaders put an end to the in
surrection In consideration of the sum
of $200,00 This amount was turned
over to Rivera by the Spanish govern
ment and he afterward put in vouch-
ers for its expenditure, giving Senior
Paterno's name as his commissioner
and distributor.
The publication OF these facts has
raised a great deal Of excitement In
Spain, but no official action has been
taken.
1t is said. that the queen and her ad
visers are defending Rivera, and are
trying to keep the matter quiet, for
fear an investigation might bring to
light similar misdoings Of a large num-
ber Of Spanish officials, and result in
the overthrow of the dynasty.
