announced that he would upon the following
day address the Senate upon The proposed meas

got the floor with speech that attracted
much attention. He called upon the ad-
ministration to take the aggressive. The
Maine he said had been blown up In q
harbor supposed to be friendly. There
was great danger now, he declared, in
trusting in diplomacy rather than 20 our
own strong arm. The great question now,
he said, was to stop the hostile fleet ap-
preaching our shores. II we were depena-
ing upon diplomacy It would prove broken
reed. The best protection. he said, was ag-
gression-not to wait resting idly upon
hopes that had no foundation. He declared
that we should strike while we had the ad-
vantage. War between nations was not like
contest between equally matched gladi-
ators. The victory belonged in war to the
country that best and first prepared for It.

SPEEDING SOUTHWARK
WILL JOIN THE SQUADRON AT
HAMPTON ROADS
IT IS A FORMIDABLE FLEET
But as Yet No Plans Are Made to Use
# in Stopping the Torpedo
Flotilla


PHILADELPHIA, April 1.-The United
States cruiser Minneapolis sailed from
League Island Navy Yard early this
morning bound for Hampton Roads, where
she will join the flying squadron. The
bunkers of the Minneapolis are overflow
ing with coal and during the past few days
all Of her ammunition has been placed
aboard, so that she is ready for action. The
Minneapolis was recently placed in dry
dock and her bottom thoroughly cleaned
and painted. This condition makes it pos
sible to get all the speed out Of the big
ship there Is in her. The departure Of the
Minneapolis leaves only two modern war;
ships at League Island. the double turret
monitor Miantonomah and the harbor de-
Tense ram Katahdin. The former will sail
In about day or two and the Katahdin
soon thereafter. Work is going on day
and night on the other monitors and I'VE
of them are practically ready for sea.
The Minneapolis anchored at Deep Wa
ter Point off New Castle, Del, at $500 She
will probably wait for tide this afternoon
before proceeding.
The Minneapolis made the run from
Marcus Hook to New Castle. about Is
miles. in little over an hour.
THE FLYING SQUADRON
CHICAGO. April IA special to the
Chronicle from Washington says:
It Is reported on good authority that
sealed orders have been sent to Commodore
Schley at Hampton Roads. The destina-
ton Of the flying squadron is thought to be
in the vicinity Of Porto Rico to intercept
the Spanish torpedo fleet that left the
Canary Islands more than a week ago.
NO ORDERS ISSUED
WASHINGTON, April Lit was stated
on authority at the Navy Department at
2:3O pm that no orders had been issued to
the flying squadron to prepare for sea; also
that the presence of Captains Crownin-
shield, Barker and Clover Of the Strategy
Board at the Cabinet meeting had not been
in connection with the Spanish torpedo
fiotilla. It was added on the same high
authority that the question of movements
Of the flying squadron was constantly
under consideration, but that no definite
determination or orders had yet resulted
therefrom.
