Now out of Reach.
Special to EVENING HERALD.
London, April 23-The American line
steamer Paris recently purchased by the
United States for war purposes, sailed yester-
day, and her captain has full warning that
the Spanish warship cruising of the coast
for week expects to intercept the steamer
before she passes the Lizard. She was due
to pass that point at II O'Clock last night.
Theeaptain of the Paris will take special
course in order to avoid being intercepted.
She must rely on her speed, and can beat the
Spanish vessel.
The Paris, from advices received here this
morning passed the Lizard last night on
schedule time, and should now be well on
her way westward, out of danger. She is
now considered safe from capture
The Lizard point is the extremely southern
point of Great Britain.
A boastful Spanish officer belonging to the
Naval Commission declares that the Ameri-
can torpedo boat Somers, which has com-
pleted her repairs at Falmouth, and which
will sail in few hours, will fall into Spanish
hands as soon as she has passed the three
mile limit.

Southampton, April 23 400 p. m.-The
Paris is safe. An attempt was made by the
Spanish cruiser to capture the American
liner, but the Spanish cruiser was sighted in
time and Captain Watkins of the Paris i'm
mediately put his ship about and ran back in
the Isle of Wight, neutral port.
The chase was a pretty one but the Paris
speed was too much for her pursuer. There
was no panic among the large number of pas
sengers on the Paris.
The Spanish ship followed her almost into
neutral waters, and realizing the danger of
further pursuit changed her course and put
to sea again.
The Isle of Wight is off the southern coast
of England in the English Channel. 1t is not
known when the Paris will attempt to sail
again

Discrsdited.
Special to EVENING HERALD.
Key West, April 23.-The North Atlantic
squadron, now blockading Cuba, is on the
lookout for tho maiship Alfonso XII which
was due from Spain at Havana yesterday
with troops aboard.
Information was received here yesterday
that great excitement had been caused by a
report that the Alfonso XII had been blown
up. This report was taken to mean the
cruiser of that name in Havana harbor, but
the story has not been verified and is gener-
ally discredited.
The Alfonso XII is one of the fastest
vessels of the Spanish Transatlantic Com
pany. She is said to carry LOO soldiers.
Like most Of the vessels of that line, the
Alfonso has two rapid-fre guns. She was
due at Havana yesterday, and if she con
tinues on her course and comes in contact
with the United States squadron now in
Cuban waters there will be active engage
ments.
