Cavite. The best informed opinio, in
diplomatic circles here, (which it
should be borne in mind has confiion-
tial sources of information not wholly
accessible to the American govern
ment) is that Cervera will continue to
sknlk in Santiago. even though he
should not be shut in by stone block

make idle demonstrations from Cabs
without risking an encounter, unless
both of these 'pinafore'' admirale are
followed into their holes as Dewey fea-

circles. The steamer was built
thirty-nine years ago and an after
noon paper says that sne has been
condemned by the British and Japa-
nese governments and was sold to a
Puget Sound syndicate for $4,000 and
that the syndicate has chartered her
to the United States for $500 day.
The transport steamers now being
prepared for the trip to Manila have
not received any stores from Mare Is
land yet and but for this fact the YES
sells could be made ready to sail by
Wednesday at the latest. But re-
port is circulated at Camp Merritt
that the vessels will get away on that
day. How this is possible is a mys-
terry. The men who are to go on the
vessels are almost ready to embark,
only few lacking the necessary equip
ment.

that the feet has already started for
the West Indies or the Philippines, it
can be stated that the government has
information which it regards as re-
liable that the Spanish fleet had not
left Cadiz up to yesterday.
Meanwhile the army preparations
go forward without the slightest sign
of cessation. Today bids were opened
for supplying 1,500 cartridges, two
more transports were purchased and
arrangements were made to use four
of the large Spanish steamers captured
las prizes for the transportation OF
troops to Cuba and Porto Rico.

GOOD FOR NOTHING ELSE.
Why the Merrimac Was Used as ];
Stopper.

Washington, June 4.-One of the
reasons that form the basis of convic-
tion that the Merrimac was purposely
sunk in the channel is the fact that
the ship was of little value as a naval
vessel She had broken down in her
machinery and was kept at work only
with difficulty. This is just the kind
of craft that would be selected to block
up the channel.
She is of iron and therefore not like
ly to be easily removed by the Span
iards. Then she is empty and so OF
no immediate value to the feet There
seems to have been just enough men
on her to steer the ship and keep the
engines moving. The normal crew OF
the collier was about forty men.

Invasion to Cuba

New York, June 4.-MisS Clara Bar
ton of the National Red Cross will
remain IN New York several days.
When she leaves it will be to go to
Washington, where she will remain
for an indefinite period. She is unde-
cided now whether she will return 70

tain whether she VIII accompany 4sss

finds it necessary to remsin in Wash

, oi the Reu cross will follow the army.
In the course of an interview Miss
Barton said that it is now proposed to
buy. with funds obtained by the Ma
tional Red Cross relief committee, OF
which Bishop Potter is the chairman,
two hospital relief ships. These ships
will have a hospital and a surgical
staff and will be well stocked with pro
visions. One of them will be sent to
the Philippines and the other to any
field on this side of the Atlantic IN
which our army and navy may be np-
Grating.
Miss Barton said that the national
relief committee has nov in its treas
ury about $4,000, $4,000 Of which
was contributed by residents OF San
Francisco. This amount isS being
daily supplemented by other confrtDn-
tions. Miss Barton said that the Red
Cross also proposes to secure two large
steam launches, yachts or tugs, to be
used as relief dispatch boats. These
boats will carry fresh provisions from
Tampa to the fleets and will bring
iback any wounded or sick that may ,bt
consigned to them. Each dispatch
boat will carry Red Cross nurses and

They Are Liable to Precipitate Move

Washington, June 4.-Peace signs
have been multiplying. There has been
notable change in the tone of the
Spanish press and although up to the
moment no advances have been made
to the state department by any of the
European powers, there is an inde-
finable suggestion in the air that any
moment may bring forth overtures OF
this kind. For this reason the CAM
paign against Porto Rico will probably
be hurried in order to insure its pos
session by the United States before
peace is attained.
