FORTY AUXILIARY NAVAL VESSELS.

WASHINGTON, June 1.-THE navy

chairman. These 40 ships are disposed
at the several large coast and gull
cities, while a hundred miles or
more seaward an outer picket
line is maintained by four of the
larger and more effective war ships of
the a Francisco class. One of these
outer pickets is maintained as far
north as Nova Scotia, and the south
erly picket is off the eastern cost OF
northern Georgia. The largest num-
Der of defense vessels is at New York
city. the commerce requiring protection
beng greatest at that point. Boston,
Charleston and all other coast points
ave their share of the auxiliary craft,
making, as a whole, a naval patrol
considered adequate for any emer-
gency in protecting our eastern and
southern coast line.
The navy department has prepared
Il map. with little blue flags, showing
the location of each of the auxiliary
ships. The flags are closely punched
all along the eastern and southern
shores and give a ready answer to pub
lie men anxious to have their local
coast line protected.
Along with the organization of this
coast patrol the navy department has
been making a large number of enlist
ments for this special service, under
the general authority of the joint reso-
luton of congress, which provides for
the enlistment of Il sufficient naval
force 20 properly defend coast points.
The men thus far enlisted have been
of an exceptionally high grade. The
enlisting officers have fonnd also that
while the nen are technically enlisted
for harbor defense service, they are
willing and even anxious to get into
more active service on the fighting
ships around Cuba. This feeling
among the new men has been
50 noticeable that it has COLI
vinced the department a large
and valuable reserve force is
being gathered together on the harbor
defense patrol. While maintaining
this patrol the naval recruits have the
advantage of frequent drills and are
fast brought to Il high state of pro-
tiency as sailors. With this training
they will be speedily available for the
fighting squadron whenever there are
drafts from those quarters.

Is Gston at two o'clock yesterday
morning. taking Il westward course.
The colonial authorities ignored the
protest of United States Consul Dent as
not based on sufficient evidence, and
gave the ship her clearance.
The Purisima Conception arrived at
Kingston in the latter part of May
from Manzanillo, with a Spanish COM
mis>ariat officer in disguise, seeking
supplies. She had already on board a
large amount, which had been obtained
elsewhere. But at Kingston she began
at once to take on -four, corn and rice;
purchasing in all $500 bags of corn
from Jamaican merchants.
The colonial authorities were in
formed by her owners that clearance
papers would be asked for d nOn-block-
AIDED port, like Man zanillo, OF the
south coast, on the bay of Guanayaro.

reservations to the governor of the ISL
and against the vessel, and, after care.
full inquiry, the officials promised that
if Mr.. Dent could furnish specific proof
that her captain intended to run for Il
blockaded port. they would refuse to
allow her to load.
An attempt vas then made by her
owners to change her register. A we'll
known Kingston merchant agreed to
take Il bill of sale, registering as aBritish
owner. but he withdrew when the gov-
eminent pointed out the liabilities he
would incur if she violated the neu-
tratity laws. Another attempt TO OBJ
tain Il register of ownership was made.
this time through an irresponsible
clerk. but the government refused his
proposal unless he could fOrtify it with
