spanish Fleet strengthened.

MADRID, April % 10 a. m.-Dispatches
received here to-day from Manila, capital
of the Philippine islands, say the Spanish
fleet has been divided into two squadrons.
Two cruisers, the Castillo and other yes
sells remain near the front of Manila. The
remaining Spanish war ships, under Admi-
raj Montejo, are patrolling the western
coasts awaiting the arrival of the American
war ships. The Spanish fleet, it appears
has been reinforced by a large auxiliary
cruiser, said to be capable of steaming
twenty knots, and armed as war ship
She is known as the Montevideo but an
examination of the register fails to estab-
lish her identity 1t is claimed however
that she is a very large vessel.
According to another dispatch from Ma
Mia. the Voz Espanola describes the port
of Manila as impregnable. The paper as
serts that the forts at Maleton, Sud Malate,
Mileta, Pasten, Mirallas and ST. Lucia Pillar
bristle with guns, chiefly Krupp guns.

news or distort the facts into Spanish vic
tory. Presuming that the admiral is bound
directly for Manila the calculation made
at the Navy Department shows he will ar
rive about 2 o'clock Saturday morning,
Manila time, which is about twelve hours
earlier than our own.
Regarding the harmless growls that APP
pear in the European papers and threats
to interfere to prevent the United States
forces from bockading the Philippines, it
may be stated that this was fully expected.
During the civil war there were a great
many attempts on the part of European ma
tions to disregard our blockade and threats
of interference all of which came to naught
from the firm attitude assumed by the sec
retary of state. In the present case the
conditions of the Cuban blockade are much
more liberal towards the powers than ever
imposed before. In anticipation of the ac-
tion of the German commercial interests in
combining to secure exemption from search
for their mail steamers, 1t is pointed out
that the President iH his proclamation de-
claring the existence OF war, explicitly an
nounced that the voyages of mail steamers
are not to be interfered with, except on
the clearest grounds of suspicion OF a viola
tion of law in respect to contraband or
blockade
