The Smelling Of Natanzas batteries
was the topic Of absorbing interest
throughout the naval and official cir
clcs generally, today. II was discussed
on thc basis Of the press reports from
Key West, as the navy department re-
ceived no information whatever on the
subject. Secretary Long said, at 4
o'clock, this afternoon. as he closed up
his office work for Che day. that no re-
port had been received from Admiral
Sampson nor was the navy department
| advised in any way of the Smelling of
| Matanzas.
| Mr. Long added that he felt no diSpo-
Sition to keep from the public any news
concerning such an Important event as
a naval engagement or a battle. While
it was essential that future strategic
moves should be guarded with the
greatest care, Vet Mir. Long recognized
that as to battles and their casualties
The public was entitled to know what
had occurred
The secretary said that in The alb
sence of official information he was in
clined to believe that the Smelling was
confined TO the exchange of a few shots
and did not assume the proportions of
regular bombardment. When his at
tention was directed to reports that the
Smelling was the result of direct orders
from the President, the secretary said
that this was not 50. as the President
was giving no direct orders on any of
these movements
The navy department has completely

Reinforcements Will Be Unable to Join the
Spanish Fleet at the Cape
Verde Islands.

London, April 29-The mystery re-
garding the movements of the Spanish
men-of-war is still unexplained. The
secretaries Of the Spanish embassy,
interviewed on the subject, ridicule the
statement that the squadron at Cape
Verde is delayed by lack of coal, first,
because for a long time the Spanish
vessels have been particularly well
fitted out, not only with coal, but with
food and all kinds of warlike material.
Second, because St. Vincent could
supply any required quantity of coal.
According to advices from Bayonne
the battleship Pelayo was completely
fitted and equipped at Carthagena, and
has gone to Cadiz. Reports that she
has been cruising in the company of
other vessels probably means that she
has been trying her boilers.
1t is believed that the squadron at
Cape Verde Islands has really been
waiting for the arrival of the Pelayo
the Alfonso XIII and other memo war,
but now that Portugal has declared
neutrality the fleet will be compelled
to sail without delay, whether rein
forced or not
The continued rise of wheat causes

men In Cuba as American spies and

A CRITICAL POSITION.
The Necessity For Commodore Dewey Cap
turing a Port in the Philip
pine Islands

Washington April 29.-Naval circles
look to the Philippines for the first big
war news. Admiral Dewey naval Of
ficers say either must take a port in
the Philippines and make it a base Of
supplies and a temporary home for
his ships or head his fleet straight
across the Pacific for San Francisco
1t is expected that the other European
powers holding possessions on the
Chinese coast will adopt Great Britain's
rules as to the conditions under which
the ships of belligerent powers may
shelter in their ports. No matter how
well inclined towards the United States,
China undoubtedly will be obliged to
join in the same practice.
Thus Admiral Dewey will find that,
having secured one supply of coal at a
port belonging to one of these powers,
that port will be practically closed to
his ships for he would not be permit
ted to enter them again for the same
purpose within three months, a space
of time that would more than consume
the amount of coal that can be carried
on shipboard. This state of affairs
strongly accentuates the unwise policy
that has prevailed in the past of fail
ing to secure coaling stations i'm re-
mote parts of the world like Asia.

THE WAR REVENUE BILL.


Amendments That Have Been Pre-
scented by Republican Majority.
Washington, April 29.-The Republi-
can members of the ways and means
committee held a meeting yesterday at
which 80 amendments to the war reve-
nue. bill were agreed to. These were
offered in the house today. Many of
them are mere verbal amendments, but
there were some Of considerable i'm
portanCe. one Of them eXemDts mu-
tual and cooperative life insurance
companies from taxation. The tax on
insurance companies is transferred
from the policies to the premiums. In
this the amendment conforms to the
law Of 1866. The tax on marine inland
and fire insurance policies is extended
to cover employers liability associa-
tions title insurance companies, glass
and all other special insurance COM
panies Of which many classes have
given up in the past few years.
Railroad telegraphic messages and
all other leased wire messages are
exempted by an amendment limiting
to tax to messages ION which the COM
panies' charges are to be paid or to be
collected" The tax on chewing gum is
reduced from one cent on a five cent
package to one-quarter of a cent. The
tax on beer is extended to include beer
stored" The amendment was deemed
necessary to cover beer in storage. The
license Of dealers in leaf tobacco is re-
duced from $24 to $12 on those whose
sales do not exceed $4,000 per annum,
and from $4S to $24 on dealers whose
sales exceed that amount. The most
important amendment was one which
levies a tax of one cent upon all pay
telephone messages costing below 25
cents. The original provision exempted
messages for a distance below 80 miles.
Mr.. Tawney, of Minnesota, estimates
that this amendment, which will cover
all city and suburban business, will
raise 81. 100000.
