CRUISERS ARE COMING HOME Weak Ships Might Fall Prey to the Irate SpaniardS at
 Any Moment.

Washington, March 24.-Secretary Long had a busy morning. Aside from seeing the president he saw many public men, The secretary stated that he had no knowl- edge of the purchase of torpedo boat in Germany. It was reported that this pur- chase had been closed yesterday, but the fact Is not known to the navy department.
 The department Is informed of the de- parture of the cruiser Cincinnati and the gunboats Castine anfl Wilmington from Port Antonio, last evening, but decline to state where they are bound. It has been reported that they have gone off on short cruise and will return to Jamaica. What is regarded as a more probable the ory as to their movements, however, is that when next heard from they will be at Key West or some other port in the United States. They are not particularly strong ships and In their present position they might possibly fall a prey to the more pow erful Spanish fleet in Cuban waters in the event of conflict Inasmuch as considera- tons of this charactIer resulted in the recall of the cruiser San Francisco and the gunboats Helena and Bancroft from the European station it Is not unlikely that the same course will be followed in the case of the vessels reported at Port An tonio whose position Is regarded by naval strategists as even more exposed and dan- gerous in the event sf hostilites than was the case with the European squadron of about the same size and power. The Cin- cinnat and Castine were attached to the South Atlantic station and their withdrawal for service in the home station leaves the navy without a single representative in South American waters, just as is the case with the European station. The arrival of the vessels named will add greatly to the strength of the home squadron.

STOCKADE
On Red Mountain Will Be Recommended by
 Mayor Evans.

Mayor Evans will, at the next meeting of the committee appointed to consider the question of the disposition of the city prisoners, present a plan for building stockade on Red mountain and send there all the boys, women and disabled men. The city owns plot of 190 acres on Red noun tain and 100 acres of this is available for the plan as mapped out by the mayor. A truck farm can be established and enough vegetables raised to feed the prisoners confined there and those in the city jail.
 Mayor Evans considers the plan feasible and believes that an outlay of $1 ,000 will be sufficient to establish it.
