today, and when 1t adjourned at late
hour the members were confident that they
had taken every precaution that their naval
experience and best judgment dictated to
defend their country and bring early de-
feat to the enemy's force.
1t developed today that instead OF two
GOLFERS as has been believed. there were
four of these vessels, carrying about 5000
tons of coal, sufficient 10 recosi every ship
of the Spanish squadron. 1t is believed by
members of the board that the arrival of
the spanish squadron at Curacao was due
to the necessity OF communication with the
Golfers in order TO appoint rendezvous
along the Venezuelan coast, where coal can
be taken aboard without interruption from
American ships or heavy sea,
Official advices are to tho effect that
seven Spanish men of war are off Curacao,

view OF the fact that the feet. when 1t left

sent communication to Commodore
Schley off Charleston that the Spanish
fleet was at Curacao and he was ordered
to hasten with all dispatch 10 Cuban

will be directed by the board.
Secretary Longs belief is this: The
enemy. depending upon superior speed, will
make every effort TO cut out isolated Amer
lean ships and destroy them, running into
Spanish harbors TO take on supplies AS
soon as these supplies are received the
Spanish admiral will leave the harbors
without delay aud continue his policy Of

stated that the naval war board is acting
in line with the seeretary's idea.
