washington, May 1.-THE official
h,,,,etln boards today failed to yield
ary news of the movements of either
~ the three neets-Sampson's. Schley's
- the spanIsh squadron-and there is
u,asor TO be lieve that the department
,,salf has received no information on
,hat point. The department officials
are beginning to show little sensi-
rveness to criticism In the matter OF
delay in bringing the Spanish fleet into
action. conscious as they are that they
have made all dispatch compatible
with due regard for the safety of our
ovn forts as well as of the lives OF
the crews OF our warships. Every day
there is talk Of change in the naval
mans brought about by some move
meut of the Spanish squadron. but
what the latest phase Of the campaign
is nobody outside Of the members OF
the war board is competent to say.
The general impression today is that
no particular effort is to be made just
now to pursue the Spaniards so long
nc they keep within the confines of the
Culf of Mexico and Caribbean sea, but
That Sampson and Schley in combina>
tim will encircle the island of Cuba,
maintain the blockade and convoy
troops across the Florida straits If
necessary, meanwhile simply keeping a
watch on the Spanish flying squadron
to see that it does not do mischief
either to the American fleet or by es>
caring into the Atlantic, to the sea-
board cities. BY this plan the military
and naval officials might hope to 81
lence the rather severe criticisms that
are being expressed because of the de-
lays in opening the military campaign
IN Cuba itself.
Considerable pressure has come upon
the administration from congressional
quarters to have the campaign has
teued and there are thought to be signs
Of assumption of the plans of the
military leaders suspended by the an
noHsoement of the arrival of the
Spanish flying squadron at Martinique.
One sign of this was the inclusion In

Engagement Said to Have Been Fought
OF the Coast OF Haiti.

Port Au Prince, May 17.-LCopyright-
ed. 1898. by the Associated Press.l-A
great sensation was caused here by
the arrival today of the military COM
mander OF the Isle of Tortuga, off the
northwest coast OF Haiti, ,tnd due
north of Port de PaiX, near the en-
trance to the Wlndward passage. who
brought word to the Haitien war de-
partment of what Is believed TO have
been a naval enlargement on Sunday.
The commandant reached Port de
Paix from the Isle of Tortugd in a
canoe. He reported to the war Office
that throughout the whole of Sunday
n very persistent cannonadlng had
been heard east of the island. and that
from its duration and intensity there
was a strong presumption that very
serious action. had taken place. a
thick fog at the time made 1t impossi-
Bile to distinguish any vessel that
might be engaged.

Tampa, Fal., May 17.-Every news
paper correspondent at Tampa has
been officially notified that in the flu
lure no mention must be made of any
tmall expeditions similar to that of the
gussie last week, until the success of
ne expedition has been assured by the
ieturn of the party. Army officers are
much chagrined over the failure to
pace the sorely-needed arms, ammu-
tition and supplies with which the
gussie was stored In the hands of the
insurgents. They believe that had not
sleh wide publicity been given the af-
,alr, the chances for success would
nave been much greater.

that Admiral Dewey or his men are in
any way endangered by their occupa-

basis, but this cannot be said of the
unfortunate inhabitants of Manila, II
the present situation is protracted I'M
duly. 1t is no small matter to organize
and transport an expedition of 1900
or $4,000 soldiers 1900 miles across the
sea at short notice, and the indications
are that within week some of the
sldlers, at least, will be on their way
from San Francisco following the
Charleston. which is expected to
leave at any moment with few sup
plies most urgently needed by Admiral
Dewey.
There are Indications that the war
department has been brought to see
the wisdom and fairness of the sugges.
tons thrown out by Maj.-Gen. Merritt
that his expedition should consist of
not less than 1900 men, and that at
least third of them should be seas

one DOLLAR Is The FEE.
City Teachers WI Have to Pay That
asnn institute Assessment.

The fee to he exacted from teachers
TO defray the expenses of the an
preaching city institute will be lower
than for any institute in recent years.
The fee will be 81. A lower amount
would have been fixed upon If the
teachers themselves had responded
to Superintendent Howells invitation
for them to take part in the program
and thus reduce the number of lee
Jurors and instructors from abroad.
-Four instructors have been engaged
for an average compensation Of about
$50 each per day, q total of 5000 for the
week. In addition TO these, Profes-
sors Brumbaugh and Steck, who are
lecturers as well as instructors, will
be here. They are high priced men.
They or equally good talent are, how
ever, demanded by the teachers them
selves.
Superintendent Howell is now ac-
lively negotiating for one lecture by
one of the best known divines in the
country. 1t is quite possible that an
other lecturer, q newspaper corre-
spondent of national reputation, may
be secured for one address. If either
or both of these men are engaged, the
ably make necessary a lecture admis-
sion fee. If any lesser talent is secur-
ed the lectures will be free.
Thus far only the High School
teachers have expressed their willing
ness to be assigned a place on the pro-
gramme. This was in response to Su-
perintendent lIowell's invitation, open
to all classes of teachers. He had
hoped the grammar. intermediate and
primary teachers might respectively
select several from among their num-
ber but they have not taken such ac-
tion.
The detailed institute program for
the institute has not been arranged in
whole. although its general outline,
with the names of the probable in
structors and other information, have
been made known by The Tribune at
intervals. 1t is proposed to have this
institute keep pace with the gradual
Improvement in those of past years
and to have it meet the corresponding
growing demands of teachers
