LIVERPOOL, April 23.-The owners
of the Buenaventura, the Spanish ship
captured by the United States steam
ship Nashville. yesterday, have issued
a signed protest against her capture.
They say the cargo belongs to British
merchants and was insured in Great
Britain. They further allege that the
capture was Illegal, as the ultimatum
of the President had not expired when
she was captured.
MADRID, April 23.-The capture of
the Spanish steamer Buenaventura by
a United States gunboat off Key West
has aroused the greatest Indignation,
the Spaniards claiming that hostilities
are not yet supposed to have begun.
The newspapers of the city character
lied the seizure of the ship as an act Of
piracy, and being in defiance OF the in
ternational law, characteristic of the
Yankees"
KEY WEST, April 23-The captured
Spanish steamer Buenaventura is still
aground and leaking badly. There is
a strong suspicion that the ship has
been scuttled by her Spanish crew.

WASHINGTON, April 23.-The Cap

Flags on the great. pillars were at half-

of the magnificent structure evidence
of grief and sadness We're at every

At noon the Senate was called to or

Edward Cary Walthall, late Senator
from Mississippi, who died Thursday
afternoon.
The remains of Senator Walthall We're
conveyed to the Capitol last evening,
and were lying in state in the marble
room of the Senate until 9 o'clock to-
day, when they were placed In the
Senate chamber in the area in front OF

AMERICAN LINER PARIS.
Not Believed She Has Fallen Into
Spanish Hands.

LONDON, April 23.-The American
line steamer Paris has not returned to
Southampton. The only information.
obtainable is that she passed The Liz
ard yesterday evening.
1t is believed here that the telegraph
reports from Belfast referring to the
rumored capture of the American liner
Paris by Spanish cruiser or torpedo
boat are simply repetitions of the report
of yesterday evening, which have since
been found to be untrue.
PHILADELPHIA, April 23. The
fear for the safety of the Paris ex
pressed in some quarters is not shared
by the officers of the international
Navigation Company. Clement A.
Griscom. Jr. one of the managers Of the
American line, says:
There is not a vessel in the Spanish
navy that can steam within two knots
of the Paris. If the day is clear yes
sci can be sighted twenty miles away.
If there is any doubt of the vessels ma
tionality it is hardly likely that the
Paris will try to make it out. OF course
a careful outlook will be kept for
Spanish vessels, but we don't expect
any will be sighted or will give her any
trouble,
NEW YORK, April 23.-Clement A.
Griscom, Vice President of the Ameri-
can Steamship Line, said tonight:
Il have just received cable message
from the agents Of the line in South
ampton stating that there is absolutely
no truth in the rumor that the steamer
Paris has been captured. She passed
the Lizard at 11:45 p. m. yesterday.
She proceeded on her way for this port,
and as since that time nothing has
been heard from her, it is certain that
she has not been taken. Had she been
overhauled by a Spanish vessel the
captor and her prize would have put
about for some Spanish port, but as no
vessel arriving either at Southampton
or any other port reported her, we are
certain she is well on her way to New
York

The Army Reorganization Bill
Passed,

WASHINGTON, April 23.-The House
to-day passed the army reorganization
bill, at the urgent request of the Pres
ident and Secretary of War, but the Sen
ate did not remain in session, as was
expected, and the bill viii not go to the
President until next week. Some fear
was expressed On the Democratic side
that the bill might increase the regular
army in time of peace, but an amend
ment prepared by Bailey, which re-
moved all doubt on this score, was ac-
cepted by Hull, and the bill passed by
unanimous vote.
The bill reorganizes the army into
three battalion formation, and author
ICES the twenty-five regiments of the
infantry arm of the service to be re-
cruited up to a total of 81 800 enlisted
men. 1t authorizes the recruitment OF
the ten regiments of the cavalry arm of
the service to a total of 1900 enlisted
men, the seven regiments of the ar
tillery arm of the service to IL. .457 men
and the engineer battalion of five COM
panies up to 752 enlisted men, includ-
ing two non-commissioned officers,
which makes total for these four arms
of the service, when at maximum
strength, of 81 ,010.
The increase of officers provided for in
the bill is:
First-Twenty-five Majors, as pro-
vided in the first section of the bill.
These Majors are to be a permanent ad
dition to the command officers of the
regular army.
