1t Has Orders NOt to Stir Up the
Cuban shore Batteries.
Key West, May 27.-part OF Commodore
Schley's squadron sailed for the west end
OF Cuba about noon Thursday, May 10. 1t
consisted Of the Iowa, Brooklyn, Texas,
and Scorpion. The advance
guard of schley's fleet was at Cienfuegos
on Sunday, May % where it was joined by
the Iowa, Eagle and Vixen and later by the
Marblehaad.
Commodore Schley has had an idea that
Ceryeras squadron, which is carrying
guns and ammunition for Havana, would
slip into Cienfuegos, which has commune
cation with the Cuban capital.
On Sunday the squadron was sent scouts
ing in the direction of Santiago de Cuba,
and on Tuesday OF this week about dusk
Commodore Schley's squadron steamed to-
ward that port, the torpedo boat Dupont
leaving for Key West with dispatches. The
Dupont's officers and men say there was
no firing at Cienfuegos or while they were
with the fleet, which was up to the hour Of
its departure.
Before reaching Cenfuegos Commodore
Schley sent dispatches TO Rear Admiral
Sampson, in which he made no allusion to
any collision with shore batteries His
orders we're to look for the Spanish squad
ron, not to stir up the shore guns. 1t Is
believed here he will send dispatches to
Washington from Mole St, Nicholas or

their consular representatives in Honolulu
have taken action which is construed to
show their dspeasure ut Iiawaiis course
They have not entered any formal protest
but have inquired OF the Hawaiian govern
mcnt what Its attitude would be during the
war.
What reply, If any, the Hawaiian govern
ment made TO this inquiry is not yet huuwn
III Washington. 1t is known, however,
that the government OF the islands Will
net maintain neutrality but will allow the
United states to use its territory and thc
harbor at Honolulu as freely as il they
were Il part Of the United States. BY 10
doing the Hawaiian government assumes
the position OF being practically ar ally
OF the United States and takes upon itself
full responsibility for such attitude. AS
far as Is known here, the Spanish consul
in Honolulu stil maintains his relations
with President Dole's government, but
when the cruiser Charleston and the trtrs-
ports hound for Manila take on provisions
and coal at Honolulu he will protest cm-
pl atically against it, and, upon his re-
test being dlsregarded, viii sever his con-
ntSuons with the government and uemanl

Spanish consul should be Joined In his

the administration will avail itself of the

Washington. May 27.--The military situa-
tion as at present determined upon by those
in authority is to make no forward move
inent of the troops, either on Porto Rico or
Cubn, until full and sufficient information
is received as TO the location of the Spanish
squadron. Steps have been taken to secure
information as to whether Ceryeras squad :
ron is inside Santiago harbor end whether
the American squadron can make the escape
OF the Spaniards impossible. For the last
few hours administration circles have
shared the public belief that the spanish
ships were trapped in Santiago harbor ara
that has given impetus to arrangements by
which the large bodies of troops at Chick
anluuga and elsewhere might be rapidly
moved to Tampa preparatory to embaFhlng
for Cuba.
Unless the navy department succeeus IN
securing some direct and official informal
ton respecting the Spanish and American
fleets within the next twenty tour hours
through the aid OF the West indian CABLES
it will resort to the use Of dispatch boats
1t can be again affirmed Gil the highest
authority that at the clcan OF the day the
department had nothing more thah briei
message that the Spanish squadron WIS ~
ing in santiago ha"bor and that was unof-
ficiol The navy department, however en-
tertains no doubt whatever that The Spanish
squadron is securely trapped and thar Com
