CHICAGO, May 2S.-The formal an
nouncement Of the engagement Of Miss
Laura Williams, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Norman Williams of Chicago, and grand
daughter of the late Judge John Dean Ca
itary governor Of the Philippine Islands,
was made to-day.
Miss Williams Is about 20 years old,
brunette, graceful and petite and of strik-
ing appearance, with jet black hair and
eyes and brilliant coloring. She has re-
ceived much attention here and abroad,
and especially in London, where she was
the guest Of Robert T. Lincoln, when he
was representative OF this country at the
Court Of st. James. She was presented at
the queens drawing-room with Miss Lin
coin.
Norman Williams has for number Of
years been one of the well-known figures in
Chicago legal and financial circles.
General Merritt was born in Illinois and
is a graduate Of West Point. He entered
the war directly after graduation In 1861.
In April. 1863, he was appointed brigadier-
general, and his services throughout the
war were Of the most distinguished form.
Since its close he has made a name foy
himself as an Indian fighter. and In 1895
was made major-general.
General Merritt left for the Pacific coast
tonight on a special car attached to the
O'Clock train on the Chicago and North
western railroad He steadily refused to
be interviewed, and the members Of his
staff maintained the same reticence.

ment. each state Of the Union contribut-
ing block Of stone for the base. A COM
mittee was formed. under the chairman

ALL SORTS OF RuMoRs
Evidently Based on Some Tropical
Thunder Storms

KEY WEST. May 23.-The officers Of a
United States cruiser which arrived here
to-day say that while off Cape San Antonio,
the western extremity Of Cuba, yesterday
terrific explosion was heard from the
direction Of the shore, but apparently many
miles away. There was an upheaval of
water all about the ship and the cruiser
herself vibrated with the shock from stem
to stern. Many are inclined to think that
the phenomenon was all earthquake. There
are no batteries near enough to Cape San
Antonio to account for the defamation of
such volume, and 1t is thought that if any
naval disaster had occurred news Of it would
have reached here.
Might Be Thunder
NEW YORK, May 23.-A dispatch to the
Herald from Mole St. Nicholas, Hayt!,
says:
The numerous and very frequent reports
resembling heavy cannonading which were
heard in the Windward Passage Friday af-
ternoon and Saturday gave rise to the
rumor that a naval engagement was in
progress between squadrous Of the United
States and Spain. No man of war has
been seen outside Of the harbor. however,
and none has entered it. 1t has been i'm
possible to learn whether or not a naval
battle actually took place.
More of It
PORT-AU-PRINCE, Hayti, May o.
following dispatch has been received from
Port de Paix, dated Saturday last. Land
Geographic communication has been in
terrupted up to today.
A furious cannonading was heard on the
10th Thursday, last, in the direction of
the North of Cuba. Today Saturday, the
cannonading continues in a lively fashion.
Port de Paix is in the northwestern part
of Hayti and the firing may have been from
any part Of the eastern extremity of Cuba.
AS the Spaniards claim Guantanamo was
recently bombarded by American ships,
the sound of firing may have come from
that direction.

A STEAMSHIP SEIZED
ON SUSPICION OF TRYING n
ENTER HAVANA
The Owners Make Explanation and the
British Vessel Is Ordered Re-
leased Immediately

KEY WEST. May 23.-The British steam-
er Ardanahor. Captain Danu, came into
port this morning in charge of an ensign of
the auxiliary gunboat Osceola. by which
vessel the Ardanahor was seized yesterday
Off Carnisfort light because she was acting
in a suspicious manner and was supposed
to be trying to enter Havana harbor. She
was here several weeks ago with cargo
Of cattle for Havana, having been turned
back by the blockade fleet. The Ardanahor
then, proceeding to New York, unloaded
her cattle and cleared for Nassau and
Mexican ports. including Vera Crus She
stopped at Nassau on her way south, and
when captured yesterday was far out Of
her course If bound for Vera Cruz
Explanations From New York
NEW YORK. May o. The Britt
ish steamer Ardanahor, which sail-
ed from Guanta. Venezuela on April
20. bound for Havana with a cargo
of 87S head OF cattle, was turned
back by the blockade feet and put into
Key West and reached New York on May
4 She reported that when of Matanzas
ON April a. at $3.50 p. M, she was boarded
by the U. 8. cruiser Cincinnati and was
warned that she must not enter any Cuban
port. She only lost Is head of cattle on the
voyage and her cargo was sold here. The
Ardanahor has been In the cattle trade
for the past six months. She belongs to

ports.
Released at Once
KEY WEST, May %, lis p. m.-Tho
British steamer Ardanahor, captured by
the Osceola. was released this afternoon
by order of Commodore Remey.
There is a good deal of mystery
as to why she was seized, as Carysfort
light. where she was overhauled by the
Osceola, is Off the Florida coast and more
than 100 miles north of here. Upon the
arrival Of the Ardanahor at Key West,
Captain Dana made a formal protest to
the British Consul here, Mr.. Taylor, who
laid the case before Commodore Remey
with the result stated above. It is thought
the affair is now closed.

and their campaign against the Spaniards
supported as occasion required.
This plan was based on the presumption
that reports regarding the insurgent
strength which had been received from
American consuls and others for the last
two years were accurate, and that the
ability of General Comes to crush the
Spaniards and shut them up in the coast
cities had not been exaggerated. For
nearly two years positive assertions had
been numerous that the Cubans, with
merely the moral encouragement Of the
United States, through a recognition Of
belligerency, would quickly accomplish
their independence. Within the last
month the falsity Of these assertions has
been demonstrated to the complete satis-
faction of the authorities here and
through the reports of regular army Of
ficers who have recently made reconnois-
sances in the island. 1t is now definitely
known that little or no assistance from the
vaunted "armies of liberty" should be ex-
rected. On the contrary, the latest in
formation, which is of undoubted trust
worthiness, indicates conclusively that had
so small force as at first contemplated
been landed in Cuba the rapid concentra-
ton of Spanish troops would have caused
its speedy retreat or resulted In its annihi-
lation.
This radical establishment Of these
enthusiasts who predicted Spanish aban-
donment of Cuba at the first evidence OF
threatening attitude on the part Of the
United States in part, at least, accounts
for the precautions and delays which are
now apparent in the preparations for in
vasion. The numerical strength of the
advance guard is now placed at nearly
20 900, with the assertion that no movement
will occur until twice that number are
equipped and ready to respond instantly
to any cali for reinforcements which may
be imperatively demanded.
