WILL GO TO SPAIN.
a FLEET ORDERED PREPARED.
Commodore Watson VIII Have Command
of Powerful Squadron with Which
to Attack tho Spanish Coast.

Washington, June 27.-The admin
istratlon to-day finally came to de-
cislon to send an American squadron
to the Spanish coast and into the Med
iterranean. Several times since the
war broke out rumors to this effect
have circulated, but the project had
not materialized-it required the
Spanish movement toward the Phil
ippines by Camara's squadron to de-
eide the Navy Department to adopt
this bold stroke.
The Navy Department at 11:15
o'clock posted the following bulletin:
Commodore Watson sails to-day in
the Newark to join Sampson, when he
will take under his command an ar
mored squadron, with cruisers, and
proceed mt once off the Spanish coast.
The Navy Department has posted
the following bulletin showing Com
modore Watson's squadron. 1t is des-
ignated the Eastern squadron and is
as follows:
Flagship Newark. battlcships Iowa
and Oregon, cruisers Yosemite, Yam
kce and Dixie and the colliers Seen
dln, Abarcnda and Alexander The
advance will be made ut once from
Santiago.
The bulletin also showed the follow
ing changes in designation of the d.
vision uf our war vessels:
North Atlantic Fleet-Rcar Admiral
Sampson, commanding.
First SQuadron-CommodOr ]. A.
Howell, commanding.
Second qundron-Commodor w.
S. Schley. commanding.
Naval base, Key West. Florida,
Commodore L. Remcy, commanding.
No attempt Is made to deny that the
government is influenced in ordering
this movement by desire to check
the progress eastward of the Cadiz
fleet. II was not believed that the
Spanish commander could be guilty
of the folly OF uncoverng his own
home ports in this fashion, but mas
much as he seems determined to do
so. the naval strategists could not do
less than take advantage of the mag
nificent opportunity thus afforded to
strike n crushing blow at Spain, and
thereby. perhaps. save much time and
loss of life and money in the conduct
of the tedious campaign in Cuba.
The Eastern squadron. which the
United States will now send against
Spain, far outranks the Spanish
squadron, the Iowa and Oregon ex-
cceding the Pelayo and Carlos V at
every point. while the other United
States vessels are far superior. ship
for ship, to those of the Spanish
squadron, with the single exception
of the two Spanish torpedo boat de-
stroycrs.
When the American fleet sails for
Spain II will take with II complete in
formation as to the entire stretch of
Spanish coast. with detail maps Of
every harbor and its forttications.

ESCAPED THE HURRICANES.
Our Troops Were Fortunate In Landing
Safely at Santiago.

Safely at Santiago.
Washington, ID. c.. June 25.-The
President was decidedly pleased when
he learned from Cuba that all of the
troops were on land, and he regards
the good fortune that has followed
them from the start as dispensation
OF Providence. He realizes fully the
degree OF danger 10 which they have
been subjected at this season. when
hurricanes Of terrific force are fire.
quent. Weather observers say that
many years have passed since the an
nual summer hurricanes were post
poned rs long as they have been this
year. There is usually one. aud some
times two, destructive storms about
June 21st. which have often DESTROYED
plantations, factories. railway bridges
and other artificial structures on shore,
and sometimes wide forests and entire
cities have been swept away by the
force OF nature. At these times II is
often impossible for shipping to sur
vive unless 1t happens TO be sheltered
In well.protected harbor.
Such hurricane, which may be ey.
pected any day, would not only have
scattered the fleet OF transports, hut
might have sent dozen OF them to the
bottom. The men-of-war. and particu.
larly the battleships, are better able 10
resist the force Of these gales than
merchant ships. because OF the heavy
materials OF which they are construct.
ed and the fact that larger portion
OF their hulls are submerged In the
water. The danger 10 the fleet is not
over yet. but the President feels that
1t Is the cause for the most profound
coneratulatlon that the troops are all
ashore without the loss Of single life.

The latter instructions were obeyed
most implicitly, since the Spanish
burned Baiquirl and retreated on ile
appearance of the American troops
without firing shot. Apparently,
Judging the American methods by
their own, they seemed wholly unpre-
pared for General Lawton's advance
on Juragua by way Of Damajava.
General Lawton, on the other hand,
acted as though he were after hostile
Apaches on the war path. Daylight
saw the first move of the Americans
from DamaJava, the Twenty-second
Infantry passing the Eighth Infantry
on the extreme outpost, while the lat
ter breakfasted, the Cubans, scouting
ahead, beating up the Spanish like
cartridges and driving them hcnd-
long.
The Spanish hastily tried to derail
or disable locomotive and engine
with steam up on the track, by dis
connecting the coupling rods, the
throttle lever and several essential
parts, burying some and throwing otli-
ers into the sea.
Two engineers happened to be with
the advance squadron of the Twenty,
second infantry and the troops went
for the locomotive with n yell. The
soldiers, hunting about for the missing
parts, found some and improvised
others.
One engineer, acting as fireman and
the other at the throttle. in twenty
minutes ran her into Juragua with the
tender full of sharpshooters, delirious
with enthusiasm over Yankee ingenu-
lty. The engineer remarked: "If the
fools had knocked In the cylinder
head we could not fix her."
The iron railway bridge at Juragua
was slightly damaged during yester-
days bombardment, but the rolling
stock is safe and IL the track to the
east Is not destroyed the transporta-
tion problem is solved.
The haste Of the Spanish in evacua-
tion is shown by the fact that break
fast was on the table and the bacon
actually frying. Our soldiers proftcd
by this.

The liberal government in Canada Is
preparing to hold referendum on the
subject of prohibition. A bill is being
prepared which will provide for n vote
by the entire people of Canada on the
advisablli,y of passing a federal pro-
hibitory act. forbidding the manufac-
ture. importation and sale OF intoxicat-
Ing liquors. Since 1875 there have been
plebiscites In the four provinces OF
Manitoba. Prince Edward Island. On
tario and Nova Scotia on the subject,
each OF which gave majority for pro-
hibition. the aggregate in the four be-
Ing l32.sis votes. 1t seems more than
likely that prohibition will receive n
majority at the proposed plebisclte for
the whole dominion. but II is not sure
that the government will then pass a
prohibitory law.

TAX ON PAY CHECKS.
Mig Bills That Employers Will Have {
Pay,

Big Bills That employers Will hev0 TO
Pay.
Chicago, June 27.-Employers who
pay their help with bank checks are
concerned over the wnr-revenue law.
1t provides that every "order for the
payment of money, drawn upon any
bank" must bear cents In stamps,
properly Cancelled and dated.
The Stockyards Company has not
far from $1,000 employees who are paid
by check every two weeks. The war
revenue stamps therefore would in
volve an extra expense Of S1,4OO, and
the company may abandon the check
arrangement and pay in currency.
In the case of railways, however,
where employees are scattered about in
many districts, payment by check is
almost imperative. The Atchlson, To-
peka & Santa Fe Railroad Company
has already ordered 100000 1-cent and
25,000 2-cent revenue stamps. OF the
other railroads the Chicago, Rock
Island & Pacific, with its 5000 checks
n month; the Chicago, Milwaukee &
st. Paul, with 1900, and the Chicago
& Northwestern, with 5000 checks,
have decided to pay cents to the gov
ernment rather than distribute cash to
their employees.
The Chicago board of education,
which distributes each month over g.
800 checks, will hereafter pay 2 cents
each for the privilege. So will the
Chicago Edison Company, with Its
1000 employees. They are firm in the
belief that money would be lost In
abandoning the check system In favor
of cash payments. The Glucose Sugar
Refining Company will pay the tax on
its 1000 monthly checks as n matter of
economy.
The department stores will be but
slightly affected, as they are accus-
toned to pay employees in currency
each week.
