Manila, via Hong Kong, May iS.--Thc
American victory at Cavite aud the COM
plete collapse of the Spanish navy have not
struck terror into Manila. The blockade
continues, but the public Is calm; II thinks
that the European powers have interviewed
to prevent the bombardment Of Manila.
The country is quiet The natives Will not
actively or openly favor tie Americans
unless assured that Spanish rule is over
forever, for fear OF reprisals. The desire TO
lj.eak the Spanish rule is general through
jut the country and the American invasion
Is popular is a means Of gaining this eni,
but the native mind is only influenced by
al exhibition OF strength; they think the
blockade is weak and that this due to for
eign Intervention, Manila can draw sup
plies from the interior and hold out for
months.
The troops at Manila consist of about
10000 regulars and 10000 volunteers; I
doubt the utility of the volunteers, even II
they be patriotic They have no military
instruction and their fire is wild and dan
gerous to the troops. The artillery has no
machine guns
Public opinion, which frat favored Adj
miral Montejo. has now changed. The
Spaniards freely crticise his defense of
Cavite. They say the Americans came
within range of his guns and that his ar
age to the American fleet II well handed.
The captain general ordered Admiral Mon
teio to anchor his fleet off Manila and unite
the strength OF his fleet to the batteries.
Montejo replied that his place was 10 de-
fend the arsenal of Cayite. The defense OF
Manila without fleet is impossible.

FOREIGNERS INTER EsTED.
Eagerly Awaiting the Clash between
the Lcyjuthuus

the Lcvinthnns.
Washington, May i3.--The news of the
commandment OF San Juan caused deep in
terest in oil foreign quarters here and much
anxiety is shown as to the condition OF
foreign residents at that port At one
OF the embassies 1t was stated there was no
notice Of the bonbardment preceding the
actual assault. So far as was known from
the press reports stating that foreign Off
cials and residents had fed to the interior
1t was presumed they were given suf-
hcient notice. 1t was stated in this con-
nectlon that Germany and other European
powers We're represented in Porto Rico
waters by several warships which are
counted on TO afford all necessary protec-
ton to the citizens of their countries.
German officials say the reports eman-
ating from London as to Germanys pur-
pose TO intervene in the Philippine Islands
are not worthy of attention or denial.
There has been no movement toward inter-
vention and it is said there will be none.
This authorities representing the CONT
mental powers feel that England is encour-
aging these reports.
The French embassy has given to the
state department copy of the French ga
zetts Of neutrality. 1t is important in view
of the presence of the Spanish squadron
near the French West Indies.
The naval attaches of the several embas
sizes look forward to the battle between
SIMPSONS squadron aud the Spanish squad
ron as likely to be the greatest OF modern
times. One of them said 1t would be the
first great battle between modern ironclads,
Tbs only fight of this kind in recent years
was that between the japanese cruisers
and torpedo boats and the Chinese battle
ships at Wei Hal Wei. when the smaller
craft of the Japanese sunk the Chinese
battleship Ting Yuen. This engagement
was trifling, however, as compared with
what the fight between the American and
Spanish squadrons promises to be, owing to
the many large ships with belted armor,
big guns and the most deadly weapons OF
destruction known TO modern naval war
fare.

General Wheeler VIII Command
CavnIry-TrOOp~ Disappointed.
Tampa, May 13-General Joseph Wheel
er, the old Confederate cavalry leader, re-
Gently commissioned major general Of vol
unteers, will command the United States
cavalry in the Cuban army of invasion.
General Wheeler reached here tonight UNI
der orders from General Miles end report
ed TO General Wade. He will take command
OF the cavalry, which, it is expected, VIII
organize into brigade tomorrow. Major
E. g. Arlington will be inspector general
OF the cavalry
Once more have the 5000 troops at
Tampa and Port Tampa unpacked their
baggage and settled down into the dun
routine OF camp life. There Is little doubt
that it was the intention to have every
man, horse, mule and pound OF supplies on
board ship by Sunday night, and the big
fleet of transports on the way to Cuba ~
Monday. But the appearance Of the Span
ish fleet near Martinique and the almost
hourly expected battle with Sampson has
resulted in another postponement of the
invasion Of Cuba, awaiting the Spanish
fleet by Admiral Sampson. The knowl-
edge of the whereabouts OF the Spaniafd3
simply makes conditions the same as they
were a week ago
officers and men alike are apparent y
much disappointed at the turn or dHalTS
and news of the expected conflict between
the Spanish and American fleets is anx-
iously awaited. It is very probable that
no more expeditions similar to that OF the
Gussie. which sailed last Tuesday will be
sent out from here.
1t is known that the Plant steamer
Florida. loaded with rifles. ammunition
and supplies for General Gomez army was
scheduled to leave last night, but the or
der TO sail was for some reason counter
manded shortly before the hour set for
sailing.
Nearly 1900 troops regulars and State
! militia. arrived. in Tampa To-Day and went
into camp.
Fifteen trainloads OF troops from Chick
amauga are scheduled to arrive In TamIa
tomorrow over TIE Plant system. The
Florida Central and Peninsular will also
bring in a large number. Two companies
of militia from Jacksonville and one e1ch
| from St Augustine, Palatka and jasper
came In during the day. Nearly every one
OF the twenty companies OF the Florida
state militia are ordered TO rendezvous
here and are expected tomorrow,
