THE TALK AT KEY WEST.
Speculation and Fact from the Naval Out
post on Florida.

Key West, Fla. May 24.-[Copyright.
1898 by The Associated Press. l-Spec-
ulation here is concentrated on the
whereabouts of Admiral Cervera's
squadron, the general opinion favoring
some point on the southern coast. AS
both sides Of the island are now pa
trolled by United States warships, the
naval authorities will not admit the
possibility Of Cervera's escape without
the most desperate conflict in the his
tory of naval warfare. Reports from
Admiral SIMPSONS squadron say that
all is quiet off the northern coast or
Cuba. Nothing from Commodore Schley
is expected before Tuesday. rumor

ships. while bombarding Santiago de

credited. Where II came from is mys-

Robbins and Broussard VIII Take Part In
the Invasion of Cuba.


Washington, May 4.-Two represen-
tatives in congress. Messrs. Robbins OF
Pennsylvania and Broussard of Louis
lana, have been given authority to go TO
the front in the Cuban invasion. Mr..
Robbins called on the president and
was with him but few minutes be-
t,re he went over TO the secretary Of
war for his assignment. He bore with
him a written order to appoint Hon.
+. +. Robbins OF Pennsylvania captain

RAMSAY'S BONDSMEN WIN.
Sureties of the Former State Treasurer se-
cure "a Decision.


Carlyle, Ills, May 24-The ten Chica-
go bondsmen of former State Treasurer
Rufus n. Ramsay Of Illinois have
scored another victory in their legal
contest with the creditors of the former
state official.
When Ramsay died he left large def
icit in the state cash box, which the
sureties made good. They filed a claim
against the estate for $363,0OO, which
was allowed in the county court. IL
was appealed to the circuit court, where
the creditors won. The bondsmen
gained a verdict in the appellate court.
The case was reversed and remanded
and heard for the second time in the
Clinton county circuit court. The most
important point is whether the Chicago
bankers and Ramsay had an agreement
whereby the bondsmen were to have the
use of the state money. John r. King
and John r. Walsh, two of the bonds
men, testified, but denied emphatically
| the existence of such an arrangement.
The court, in the opinion rendered, Is
| inclined to believe that a contract had
| been made, because interest was paid
| on the deposits. The case Will at once
be taken to the appellate court by the
| creditors.

OCCUPATION OF HAVANA.
New Plan Submitted to the President and
Secretary Long.


Washington, May PA new plan for
the bombardment of Havana and the
occupation of that city by the United
States troops has been submitted to the
president and the secretary of the navy.
The plan has the approval of several
officers high in the navy, who say that
1t is the most feasible and practical
way of storming the city. The plan sug-
gested is to assail the city from the
water front, storming it with troops
and marines while the walls are being
shattered by the warships.
President Mckinley has been told that
II he would only give the order, naming
the dynamite cruiser Vesuvius, sup
ported by three or four heavy vessels,
to do the heavy firing, the vessels could
clear the way for the landing parties
within three hours, and could blaze
pathway two miles wide through the
heart OF the city which would be safe
for the land forces.
In support of the proposition that the
dynamite cruiser be allowed to do Jus'
the work that she was built for. 1t is
argued that the taking of the city coulo
be brought about in this way with les:
loss Of time and men than by taking IT
as now proposed, from the land side b,
siege and assault.
