COAST DEFENsES
Will Be Made Adequate to Resist the
Spaniard

0pdu1dTQ
NEW YORK. May IA special to the
Herald from Washington says:
Fearing an attack upon the seaports OF
the North Atlantic coast by the Spanish
men-of-war now on their way to Western
waters, Secretary Alger has taken steps
to further improve the seacoast defenses.
There is excellent authority for the state
ment that the administration believes that
the Spanish men-of-war will appear at
some port on the coast and attempt to re-
taliate for the loss of the Philippines by do
ing as much damage as possible, and, when
this work has been completed, sail with all
speed to Porto Rico and, if necessary, fight
their way into San Juan.
AS to the point where Spain will strike,
the authorities are totally unable to say.
New York is considered in very good con-
cition to resist attack, but this is not the
case with the New England cities and with
ports along the Southern coast.
Captain Duvall, military aide to Secretary
Alger, has been inspecting the defenses of
Boston harbor and other New England
cities for several days. 1t was to prevent
Spanish privateers from ravaging the
Northeast coast that the cruisers Columbia
and Minneapolis We're sent to patrol those
waters, and they are stationed at Province
town with a view to having naval force
handy to resist an attack on any of the
Northeastern points.
Instructions to the commanding officers
of the auxiliary cruisers Yankee, Prairie
Dixie and Yosemite require them to join
the flagship San Francisco at Province
town without delay. Their crews will have
gun practice on the way and will be given
as much training as possible.
Besides Commodore Howell's squadron
the ports will be defended by great guns and
General Merritt will improve the fortified.
lions as much as possible.
