Commodore Schley with his flying
squadron arrived yesterday. Today
in came Admiral Sampson and his
big fleet. Tonight a report came
from Washington sthat Admiral
CerVera and his feet had put in at
Santiago de Cuba. There is great
hustle in the fleet and evidently ar
rangements are being made to sail
at once.
The rumor is that Schley will
take these monitors and some
of the smaller cruisers to keep
the Spaniards out of Havana,
while Sampson takes the battle
ships and larger cruisers to chase
Cevera around the Island. Samp-
son brought the Iowa, Indiana,

With Schley came the Massachu-
setts, Texas; Brooklyn and Scor-

Charleston Returns to San Francisco.

NAAoAASobOh AhSbulho w Jan AohSAoSOs
Vallejo, Cal, May 19.-The Uni
ted States cruiser Charleston, that
sailed yesterday for Manila, with
ammunition and supplies for Ad-
miral Dewey is back at her berth at
Mare Island navy yard with he con-
denser out of order. The cruiser
steamed about the bay Yesterday
out of sight of San Francisco while
her compasses were being adjusted
and cargo trimmed. When every
thing was in readiness for a start
on the long journey the condensers
we're found to be out of order The
accident was trivial, but Capt.
Glads concluded that it would be
better to return to the navy yard
and secure the benefit of the facili-
ties there than to repair the dam
age at sea. The Charleston will
make another start within the next
two days.
