DOUBT IS EXPRESSED
AS TO THE ACCURACY OF THE
DISPATCH
FLYING SQUADRON WON'T FLY
While Warships at Havana Depart to
Convoy the Torpedo Flotilla
Into American Waters
Associated Press Special Wire

Associated Press Special Wire
MADRID, April 1.-Midnight.-The
Spanish torpedo flotilla has arrived at
Porto Rico.
1T CAUSES COMMENT
WASHINGTON, April 1.-The Madrid
dispatch announcing the arrival Of the
Spanish torpedo flotilla at Porto Rico was
quite unexpected at Washington and cre-
ated considerable comment in naval cir
cles. So far as could be learned, no infor-
nation on this point has been received BY
either the state or navy departments.
! The arrival Of the flotilla surpasses all
forecasts as to the time necessary to make
the trip and indicates that a high rate Of
speed was maintained across the ocean.
President Mckinley manifested much in
forest in the dispatch from Madrid that the
Spanish fiotilla had arrived at Porto Rico.
About the house good deal Of surprise
was expressed that the f1otilla had made 80
swift passage from the Canaries, and
there was disposition among some to
whom the information was given not to
credit 1t. the opinion being that 1t had been
given out by the Madrid officials to pre-
vent the flying squadron from sailing.
| FLYERS WON'T FLY
| WASHINGTON, April 1.-The flying
squadron is to remain in Hampton Roads
for the present at least. This announce
ment was made late this afternoon by Sec
retary Long and set at rest the reports
which had been current throughout the
day that a movement Of the squadron was
imminent. The secretary stated that the
department believed that the present rem
devious Of the squadron was the most
available one from which the ships under
Commodore Schley would operate In car
rying out the purpose for which It was
formed-that is, the protection of the
North Atlantic seaboard. He added that
no orders had been issued to Commodore
Schley and that none were In immediate
contemplation.
l. In the various phases Of the situation to-
day the flying squadron stood out promi-
nently, both as a center of public interest
in connection with rumored orders for its
sailing from the roads, and as matter Of
consideration by the department. It is said
on reliable authority that the department
| discussed the question of ordering the
ships to sea, presumably, though not Off
cially SO stated, in accordance with the ap-
proach Of the Spanish torpedo fiotilla.
| 1t has been an open secret for some days
that the naval authorities have regarded
the approach of the Spanish f1otilla with ap-
prehension, and their feelings in this re-
gard were strong enough to call the mat
ter to the attention of the authorities,
After considering the matter, however, Il
was decided that no orders would be issued
looking to movement of the squadron.
| While the decision is understood to have
been based primarily upon the fact that
| it would be unwise to remove the ships
from their present valuable strategic posi-

be the finest geological garden in the
world in Bronx Park New York, and
under the direction Of the executive COM

garden to the public in satisfactory
way on May 1st, 1890. While the work
is progressing with all due rapidity and
zeal, the old and well approved plan of
relieving bilIiousness and constipation
through the benefcent agency of Hos

cogniti0n. This excellent family medi-
cine is safeguard against malaria and
rheumatism, and removes indigestion
and nervousness. 1t invigorates the sys-

gestion and appetite, fortifies it against
disease, and counteracts the effects of
oyerwork, mental or physical. A wine

health-yelding rest and strengthening
sleep. Let it have the persistent and
