MOLE ST. NICHOLAS, Haytl, May
s0.-The following dispatch has been re-
ceived here from tho correspondent Of
tho Associated Press with the American
fleet off Santiago de Cuba:
"oFF SANTIAGO DE CUBA, May %.
Commodore schley and the flying
squadron have the Spanish feet bottled
UP in the harbor OF Santiago dc Cuba.
BY the most clever manoeuyerlng the
commodore allowed the spanIards to
think he had left in disgust. They took
the bait and ran into the harbor. Com
modore Schley moved down this morn
ing, and at s o'clock. going close to the
harbor, he saw the Cristobal Colon, the
Maria Teresa and two torpedo boats.
He believes the entire fleet is there.
Commodore Sohley has acted upon
his own information and Judgment for
the past six days, and believes the whole
Spanish fleet Is there. He sat on the
after triangle OF tho Brooklyn this
morning until after the discovery OF tho
fleet, and then went to breakfast, say
ing: i

The st. Paul, Capt. sigsbce, had been

and early last Wednesday morning the
big collier was sighted, making ut full
speed for Santiago harbor. The St,
Paul fired u blank shot and tho Res
tormel came to four miles from the San
tiago forts. The forts did not fire on tho
cruiser. A prize crew, In command of
Lieut.. j. A. Pattson, was put on board,

under the terms of the law, the Presl-

Ing the reciprocal reductions specified
In the agreement. and at the Same time
the French authorities. at Paris, will

The conclusion OF the agreement Is a
source OF general congratulation among

OF the French embassy. Several reclp-

Aside from the tariff changes made
by the new agreement. the convention
