TO PEACE BASIS
But the Navy Will Be Held
Ready for Emergencies.
OVERLAPPING THE SHIPS
Four Battleships and Two Cruisers Or
dered North to Be Put Into the Pink
of Condition-Protocol Gives
q Breathing Spell.

Washington, Aug. 13.-The sudden
at the war and navy departments. The
orders given last night for the imme-
date cessation of hostilities brought all
military and naval movements to a
halt and 1t now remains only t. bring
Affairs back to a peace basis. In this,
h, viewer, the authorities were acting
on the theory that the protocol Of yes
terday was but the first step towards
peace and that not until a final and
lasting peace was secured could there
be an entire return to a peace basis.
This was particularly true as to the
navy department. In thai branch II
was accepted that permanent peace un-
doubleday would be made, and yet in
stead of stripping our ships, redistrib-
uting them into squadrons on a peace
basis and returning them to their old
channels. the naval authorities acted on
the principle that the present armistice
might end in a resumption of hostilities.
For that reason the fou battleships
and two armored cruisers ordered north
from West indian waters are to under
go a complete overhauling with a view
of putting them in the pink of condi-
t1on. For many months they have been
in tropical waters; their bottoms are
foul and their engines and machinery
need careful overhauling.
Meanwhile the smaller warships in
West Indian waters have been moved
to safe harbors, as the West Indian. hur-
ricane season is near at hand, while
sufficient ships for police patrol are left
along the Cuban and Porto Rican coast.
The big unwieldy monitors will remain
at Porto Rico and most of the block
aiding fleet will center at Key West I'M
der Commodore Watson. The peace
protocol will give a breathing spell and
time for bringing every ship back to the
highest state of perfection. The com
plete return to a peace basis. the estab-
lishment of peace squadrons. etc. is a
matter for the future.
1t is expected hat the American oc-
cupation of Manila will occur imme-
diately after the receipt by Admiral
Dewey and General Merritt of the or
ders sent them last night. The order
sent Admiral Dewey are much more
specific than those sent other naval
commanders, as the occupation Of Ma
Mia and the holding of the bay and
harbor involve more important consid-
Grafton than the mere cessation of hos
~tilities.

THE BLOCKADE RAISED
A Rumor That General Blanco
Has Escaped.
TRYING TO HEAD HIM OFF
Vessels Have Been Placed So as to
Intercept Him Should the Rumor
Prove to Be a Fact-The
Fleet Warned.

Playa del Este. Aug. 1S, 3 p. m.-The
American warships New York, Brook
Ign. Indiana. Iowa and Massachusetts
will sail tomorrow for Tomkinsville,
unless the navy department decides
that they shall wait for the troops from
Santiago de Cuba.
Commodore Watson left this after
noon on the Badger to raise the south
ern blockade and take the marines off
the Isle Of Pines. where it is thought
they were landed yesterday or the day
before.
Tomorrow Admiral Sampson says
the blockade will be thoroughly raised.
The st. Louis and the st. Paul left
Thursday for New York with some OF
General Skaters troops.
Thursday evening the Scorpion con-
veyed Admiral Sampson Washington
dispatches from Playa del Este. say
ing 1t was rumored that Captain Gen
eral Blanco has escaped from Havana.
probably on the steamer Montserrat.
Commodore Watson was communicated
with and the Dixie and Yankee were
sent to the Bahama channel to head
Blanco off.
Admiral Sampson at once decided TO
go To the western extremity of Jamaica
~ hohAN' b'Ss'' ~
to escape In that direction. The lag
ship made is knots an hour. despite the
foulness of her bottom, and arrived of
Jamaica yesterday morning and cruised.
Thursday evening Commodore Watson
instructed Commodore Schley to go to
the southern blockading line and warn
the ships of the rumored escape OF
Blanco. While leaving the harbor the
Brooklyn, in endeavoring To get out OF
the way of a transport, went hard
aground, and did not get off until yes
terday afternoon, when she was hauled
off by the Oregon. No damage was done
TO the ship. but II was too late then
for her to perform the commission upon
which she was sent. The Vixen was
sent after the New York yesterday, but
eturned late i'm the afternoon.
Admiral Sampson has inspected the
Maria Teresa and says he thinks she viii
be got off all right when she has been
lightered. which work will take prob
ably a week or more Lighters are to
be procured at Santiago.
