and We are about TO depart forever from
our country's service. let our last advice to
those who shall survive US be the exhorta-
ton which tremblcd on the tongue OF a de-
parting hero-"never. never give up your
ships"
These words are to-day as true as
they were 20 years ago, and current
events have verified them in striking
manner. There is to-day n lack OF
American seamcn TO man the ships Of
the American navy. In the case OF
several merchant steamers chartered
or purchased outright by our govern
ment for war purposes, the crews OF
foreign sailors refused TO serve on
board these ships, and some embar-

Fine Battle Fleet.

Washington, May 5.-No confirmation is
obtainahe Of the various reports concern
ing movements Of Admiral samrson's flest
Persons whom from their official positions
ight be supposed to share the confidence
Of the administration are credited with the
statement that the admiral has gone to
seize Porto Rico. On the other hand. il is
asserted that the fleet has gone TO meet
The Oregon and bring her in safely. Still
another report is to the effect that the al
mnal has gone to seize Matanzas. which Is
~ he ussd as a base Of operations. The CT
fuials refuse absolutely 10 make public the
plan Of the strategy board and thus give aid
to the enemy Therefore these theories as
TO the destination OF the fleet can only be
when viewed in connection with the usual
methods OF warfare, Thus TO bernhard Ma
tan1As without a; the same time being able
to land sufficient force TO seize and hold
the place would seem TO be very bad STRAIT
oey.
To attempt these latter would require
a strong landing force in view OF the num-
hNl VI clihisu NlpNPN duu III dNulNiuH II
may be suggested that Admiral ampson
would be very loath to run the risk of hav-
ing one or more OF his best ships disabled
by attacking forts needlessly and thus
leave his fleet inferior to the Spanish force
Significant move is that the warship
New Orleans is to join Captain Sehley's
squadron In place of the Columbia. This
seems TO indicate complete change In
the hshting squadron. instead of being n
ily'ng squadron has now assumed the char
aeter of a battle fleet Without being ne
