A Waiting Game.

sF the men who are managing the
Washington end Of the war knew,
Thursday afternoon. that Cervera
and his feet had arrived at Santiago de
Cuba. they did not tai any news re-
porter into their confidence.
The report printed yesterday morning
respecting the Spaniards came by way
OF Madrid and. naturally, 1t was dis
trusted by the public in this county.
This morning. In a brief way. the navy
department makes the admission that.
In fact, Cervera and his ships, having
sailed across from Curacao. a distance of
about $50 miles, were at Santiago de
Cuba.
More than this the authorities at
Washington were unwilling to say; the
press service has not been able TO learn
where Sampson Is or whether his
fleet Is in the n~eighborhood of the har-
Dor on the southeast coast OF Cuba at
which Cervera touched: the harbor must
be a good five hundred miles from Ha-
vans. Meanwhile. there is more news
about this Spanish feet. by way of
madrid. A bulletin received before
midnight says. under date of the Span
fish capital. that the Cervera feet has
sailed away from Santiago de Cuba.
In turn. that report is not confirmed
by any word received during the night
from American sources; the public,
however. will be pretty willing to believe
that II IL true. The intimation given out
yesterday at some Of the departments in
Washington was to the effect that some-
thing highly important is going to hap
pen before the war is many hour older.
So that the gist of this mornings news
essentially is. so far as the situation
near Havana is concerned. an unoffl-
sscial promise.

boat destroyers had left Cadiz with one
transport.
About three weeks later these boats
were found to be at the Cape Verde ISL
ands. The vixcaya and the Oquendo.
meanwhile. sailed from Porto Rico and
the Cristobal Colon and Maria Teresa
from Cadiz. and these met at the Cape
Verde islands. where the admiral. we
were told. fretted and fumed because the
government at Madrid didn't let him
turn his feet loose on the American
fleet. The Spaniards remained at Cape
Verde until they were ordered to leave.
They left April 90. After q leisurely
crossing this Spanish feet arrived at
the island of Martinique; 1t was next
heard of at Curacao: II was reported
yesterday at Santiago de Cuba.
Intelligent students Of the war stu
alton have renewed their acquaintance,
during the past month, with the geog-
well enough. having localities In mind.
to take account of distances. From
Curacao to Santiago de Cuba Is a run
of about $50 miles. Sampson was late
ly reported to be at the Windward
Passage. That is between Cuba and
Hayti; 1t is 700 miles from Havana. At
Porto Rico. Sampson was 1,15o miles
from Havana. When Sampson was at
Porto Rico and Cervera at Curacao,
the fleets were five hundred miles
apart. The incidents of the past week
show how rapidly the scene shifts in
naval warfare. To meet the exigencies
of new situations caused by the move
ments Of fleets. land operations, in this
war. have come practically to a stand
still.
The public assumes that II must be
a simple matter to come up with the
Spaniards and fight them-these days
of uncertainty and Of intense waiting
are proof that II isn't so very easy aft
err all. Nelson spent two years in hot
pursuit of the French fleet he was de-
ocean and crossed again, and when he
felt sure he was going to bag his game,
he discovered that his prey was at the
other end OF the Mediterranean sea,
whittier he finally went. fought and
won.
OF course, however, all the conditions
incident to modern sea fighting are to-
tally unlike those Of Nelson's time. The
wonder is that the government of the
United States has been successful in
keepiue the public in Ignorance of the
whereabouts of Sampson and his ships.

Before war was declared, the Oregon
started on the voyage from San Fran
| cisco to New York. The trip consumed
as good as two months Of time. Had
| the Nicaragua canal been available, the
Oregon could have reported at New
York about a fortnight after leaving
San Francisco. In scores of reports
hat have been laid before congress.
this canal issue, expressed in miles, has
been clearly set forth. The sea route
from New York to San Francisco by
way Of the straits Of Magellan is 1914
miles, and by way of Cape Horn 15. $50.
The way OF the Nicaraguan canal II

one route by S,267 miles and as to the
other by IL, 1853. There is no cross-lot
road; under any emergency, this coun-
try's modern-day battleship must plod
over the roundabout route which dis
coverers sailed more han three and a
half centuries
Thus far the United States has re-
fused to learn the lesson which the
Suez canal caches. BY its use Eng
land is nearer than we are by quite
three thousand miles to China, japan
and Australia. Had we the Nicaragua
cutoff. u Atlantic ports would be
from fifteen hundred to two thousand
miles nearer to Japan's and China's
ports h England is and nearly three
thousand miles closer to South Ameri-
cas- western ports. Here Is a project
that means inestimable benefit to our
Atlantic ports; u Pacific seaboard
has been begging for 1t these many
years. The southern coast, with ports
like New Orleans, would get from the
canal an impetus which supposed bene-
fits resulting from all the colonies that
Ill our dreams would not equal.
Nearly seventy-fve years ago, the
government of Nicaragua plainly ex-
pressed it's willingness to cooperate
with the United States in opening this
canal. Repeatedly hat country has
invited us to build 1t and pledged. for
Its part. all possible assistance. We
could cut the canal and open 1t to COM
merce at a cost not greater han the
sum Of money we shall spend once
every ninety days in u war with
Spain. And men who cannot be
brought to see the benefit that would
follow the building of the marine high
way use up their lung in arguing that
we must have harbors in Asia and sta
tons at the farthest end of the earth.

Courage of the stay.at-Homs

From the Washington Post.
1t sometimes requires more and better
courage to stay at home than to go to
war. Many a man who. II duty would
permit him to volunteer, would be glad to
go. Is compelled by the most solemn and
binding of all obligations to stay at home.
II is not a manly, a wise or heroic thing
for a citizen to leave his wife, children,
parents or sisters In want in order to go
where he is not needed So long as there
is a surplus of men who want to enlist,
and whose presence at home is not es-
sential to the support of families, no man
whose presence is thus required has a
moral right to enlist.
