WASHINGTON NEWS.
Latest Advioes From the National CapitaI
on the War Situation.
Special TO EVENING HERALD.
WASHINGTON, June 4.

WASHINGTON, June 4.
A report from Kingston, Jamaica, that the
Spanish Cadiz fleet is en- route for Santiago
to relieve Admiral Cervera, is discredited by
the state and navy departments The opinion
prevails here that the Cadiz fleet is destined
for the Philippine Islands If the latter
opinion should prove to be tIuo, it is likely
that our government will send a squadron to
Spain and compel her to direct the return of
the reserve squadron to defend the Canary
and other islands and the coast cities
Immediately upon the receipt of news of
victory at Santiago, now hourly expected,
General Lee will move at once with an army
of 20, 900 men for Porto Rico. Sampson and
Schley will move on that port after having
demolished the batteries at Santiago and
destroyed or captured the Spanish fleet now
there. An army is already on its way to
Santiago and with the assistance of Gen
Garcia will be enabled to hold that port
against future attack
The government is firmly convinced that
Spain will sue for peace after decisive de-
feat at Santiago and Porto Rico, and the
President is anxious to occupy the latter
with an army before negotiations for peace
are entered into. We will thus be enabled to
retain the island of Porto Rico.
The state department has demanded that if
the Spanish torpedo boat destroyer Temerario
remains in Paraguayan waters she must be
dismantled in compliance with the neutrality
laws.
The Hauaiian onnaVation r.soIrtior, mill
likely come up in the House next Tuesday
for consideration. President Mckinley is
urging its adoption, and the annexationists
are confident of the measures passage.
The British steamship Restormel, captured
by the st. Paul with a cargo of coal, will be
surrendered by the owners to the under
writers.
The board investigating the alleged uu-
healthy condition of Camp Alger at Falls
Church, say the place is healthy and the
water supply ample but recommend that no
more troops be sent there Those now at
Camp Alger will likely be moved farther
South as soon as practical The Sixth

Washington, June 4, 300 p. IL
Naval officials here cannot con
ceal their jubilation to-day over
the news from Santiago in re-
gard to the sinking of the Ameri-
can collier Merrimac.
Admiral Sampson, the naval
officials declare, has put the stop
per in the bottle and Cervera's
fleet cannot get out now under
cover OF fog or friendly storm.
The move is regarded as one of
great strategic Importance.
1t is expected to go long way
towards ending the war.
At noon the naval department
had no official advices from Rear
Admiral Sampson.
A Naval despatch was received
at the White House at nine o'clock
last night from Gibraltar, setting
forth that Carmara's fleet had not
yet left Cadiz.

PERHAPS A YANKEE TRICK
mine the Effectiveness of
the Spanish Mines.


Washington, June 4.-The Washing
ton Post this morning says: There is
absolutely no doubt in the minds of the
naval officials in Washington that the
sending of the collier into the harbor
was all a prearranged move on the
part of Admiral Sampson. The use of
collier, the unusual hour of the
morning, the necessity of blockading
the channel so as to relieve some of
the ships of the squadron from re-
naming stationed off Santiago, the
importance of discovering whether the
mines were effective-all these rea-
sons make it certain that the Merri-
mae was deliberately guided to her de-
struction. 1t was not Spanish vic
tory. 1t was a cleverly arranged
scheme on the part of the American
admiral, and it was successful. Tho
eight men in a Spanish prison are the
real heroes of the war
In view of the daring deed of her
own crew It is interesting to know
that her complement of officers con-
sisted of Commander J. M. Miller,
Lieutenant w. w, Gilmer, executive Of
ficer Ensigns j. r. Y. Blakely and j.
M. Luby and Assistant Engineer Il. X.
Crank. 1t is expected that reports will
be received today from Admiral Samp-
son, which will give details of the Mer.
rimac's dec,ruction and the names of
the eight men who have been captured,

SECOND MANILA EXPEDITION


VIII Include Three Volunteer Rcgi-
mcnts, Including keystone Troops.
San Francisco, June 4.-The second
expedition to the Philippines will prob
ably get under way next Tuesday or
Wednesday, 1t viii not reach the pro
portions at first anticipated, owing to
the fact that the five vessels which
were to have made up the fleet of trans
ports are not ready nor will any of
them be ready by the time stated un-
less the government hurries the sup
plies which have been decided upon to
make up the cargoes of the vessels.
An order was issued yesterday from
General Merritt's headquarters desig-
mating the full companies of the
Eighteenth and Twenty-third regi-
ments of United States infantry as part
of the second expedition. So far as
known the troops to go besides these
regulars will be the First Pennsylva-
mia, First Colorado and Seventh Cali
fornia, four batteries of the Third Uni
ted States artillery and four troops OF
the United States cavalry 1t is los
sible that one of the Minnesota regl-
ments will also so.

1t will be noticed that there is an
important discrepancy as to the time
at which the bombardment is said to
have begun between the dispatches
from Cape Haytien and Port au Prince,
the former saying 3 o'clock a. m. and
the latter s. 1t is possible that this
arises from a confusion between the
figures and 8.
The Santiago advices to Cape Hay
tien, in referring to the sunken ves~
sci as an auxiliary cruiser, probably
mistake her character. The steamer
Merrimac is collier, and always has
been a collier.

de Cuba, and a lively cannonade en-
sued for two hours, which silenced the
Spanish batteries.
An American vessel, the Merrimac,
described in the advices from Santi-
ago de Cuba as an auxiliary cruiser,
making a dash to force the entrance,
succeeded in passing the first line OF
defenses, but was torpedoed about 500
feet up the channel and sank immedi-

A United States auxiliary cruiser,
"well armed" attempted to force the
