TERRELL BE NO INTERFERENCE.
A Denial That Intervention Is Con-
 templated.

Washington, May 6.-The London re- port today that the continental powers were seeking to have England join them in intervention is lacking in yer ificatiOn. The state department has received no suggestion of such inter vention. Foreign representatives here, including those of Great Britain, France, Germany and Russia meet these reports with specific denials.
 THE POWERS STAND ASIDE.
 These officials have been fully con- versant with all previous movements toward intervention and they doubtless would be aware if such a move was on foot. The utterance of Emperor Will liam before the reichstag today con- firmed these denials. The emperor de- clared that Germany would observe the neutrality laws even though no notice of neutrality was issued.
 The Russian officials take the same view as to the purpose of Russia to keep out of any intervention which would be proposed. The French au- thorities do not consider intervention a live question at present, and since France issued her declaration of neu- trality French officials dismiss the sup position that France will participate in an intervention. British officials have received no word concerning recent movements for intervention and they consider such a movement inoppor- tune under the existing conditions.
 NOTHING TO INTERVENE ABOUT.
 A leading member of the diplomatic corps said today: What could we intervene about? It could not be on the fact that the United States has oc- cupied the Philippines, because We do not know yet that the Philippines are occupied. It could not be because Porto Rico may be occupied, fer we have no official information that any movement against that island is con- temp1ated If there is to be interven- tion by the powers we must have some foundation upon which to base our intervention

THEY TURNED HER LOOSE.
A French Transatlantic Liner Captured
 Yesterday.

Washington, May 6.-The seizure of the French liner Lafayette by the gun boat Annapolis caused a distinct sensation in official and diplomatic circles here, as it is believed to in volve the possibility of more serious foreign complications than had arisen SO far. Officials of the state depart ment and of the French embassy re- ceived the news of the capture from the Associated Press dispatches and in both quarters it was given rare att tention.
 In the state department it was taken as forerunner of a number of cases of like character likely to follow, for this was the experience of the United States during the civil war. Officials of the department declare positively and in this they are supported by the unanimous voice of naval officials, that there can be no question but that the Lafayette was a blockade runner and as such is a lawful prize.

 Hong Kong.

Hong Kong, May 6.-Nothing in the shape of news has been received here from Manila. The United States dis patch boat Hugh Mccullough, whose arrival at Mfrs bay was hot confirmed, is considered to be overdue, and some anxiety is expressed in consequence.
 It is thought possibly that the fight ing about Manila is continuing. Two American sailing ships, the Thomas and the Admiral, have arrived here from Manila. They left that port be- fore the Manila engagement occurred and say they were chased by Spanish gunboats.

NO WANT OF POWDER.
Rice Declares That There Is No Fear
 of a Shortage

Chicago, May 6.-E. S. Rice, the Chi cago representative of extensive DOW der interests, says that it is evident that there is no shortage in the pow dr supply, as has been reported. He declared all such reports were without foundation and added that the United States was sufficiently supplied with ammunition to carry Cn a five year warfare if necessary Mir Rice as serts that in one year 25,000 kegs of powder are used in the coal mining districts of Illinois. and he is Of the opinion that the same quantity would not be consumed by the government during six months hard fighting with Spain.
 The fact that nitrate of soda and saltpetre have been declared contra band of war, MT. Rice says, will greatly affect the price of powder. The nitrate of soda used in the manufacture of ammunition is imported to this country from the west coast of South America and is one of the principal ingredients necessary in making high explosives.

GETTING READY TO INVADE.

Tampa, Fla, May Preparations for the embarkation of the United States troops are rapidly being con- pleted. Seven of the transports to be used in carrying the soldiers and their horses and supplies to Cuba are now at Port Tampa. They are the Comal, Allegheny, Berkshire, Florida, Gussie and the Decatur H.

Theodore Roosevelt's Rough Riders
 Expect to See Some Service.

Washington, May eff Muskogae and Guthrie fill the ranks of Roose- velt's regiment of rough riders it will not be because the distinction of place in the regiment goes begging here. MT. Roosevelt has been over run with applications by men who want to join his regiment and do some fighting in the front. MT. Roose- vents secretary has answered mere than 5000 of these applications and nearly 1000 men have been carefully looked ever by him or his assistants.
 eff any one is going into the regi- ment with the idea that it is to be hippodrome he is making an error If there is any fighting this regiment is to be in it. That is what it is for. If any one is anxious to see the front he will be very likely to with us.''
 In selecting the men the assistant secretary puts them through special examination, which begins with phys ical tests by physician and concludes with a sample of craftsmanship and horseback riding. When completed the regiment will not have in it man who is not sharpshooter and who cannot ride like a Comanche Indian or a Texas cowboy. The uniforms will be similar to that designed by General Miles for the cavalry that is to go to Cuba, but it will be of a diff ferent material, light grass cloth, similar to that in use in India by the English cavalry.

The Cabinet Discusses Military Ap-
 pointments and Other Matters,

Washington, May 6.-Besides the war situation in its general aspect, there was some discussion by the cab met today of the relative merits of persons seeking brigadier-generals and other commissions in the army. The president expressed himself very pronoumcedly as opposed to the ap- pointment to such responsible posi- tions of those who have had no mili- tary experience.
 There was considerable qualification evident at the session at the general war outlook. There was a strcng be- lief that the Spanish fleet instead of sailing across the seas to interrupt the Oregon or to come over into these waters near home to begin operations they would be found eventually to be now progressing for some point closer to it's own possessions on the other side of the pond. While there is great reliance on the part of all members of the administration on the subject, there is excellent authority for the statement that the instructions of Ad- miraI Sampson give him great latitude.

THE DELIBERATE SAMPSON.
The President Aroused Concerning the
 Slowness of His Motions.

Washington. July 21.-The president is thoroughly aroused over the delay which occurred in the starting of Miles expedition for Porto Rico. For several days General Miles and his troops have been aboard the transports at Playa del Este awaiting naval convoy to be furnished ny Admiral Sampson. The troops have been swell tering in the crowded ships under the brOiling heat of a tropical sun, while General Miles has been chafing under what he believes to be an inexcusable delay. Instructions of the most posi- tive nature have been cabled to Samp- son to supply the necessary conveys for Miles transports, but nOtwith- standing these instructions, Sampson has proceeded with preparations for the expedition with exasperating de- liberation. The president finally be- came deeply concerned lest that part of the Porto Rico expedition that has already sailed from Charleston should advance of Miles and the navy and would be exposed to serious and pos sfble disaster, as General Wilson's ships are absolutely without protee- tion. The president this morning is- sued personal order through the secretary of the navy that Admiral Sampson proceed immediately to Porto Rico with Miles The presi- dents order is imperative to a degree seldom employed except in cases of extreme urgency. They are of a sort that brook of no delay in their execu- t1on. Sampson must start for Porto Rico at once or the president himself will know the reason why.
