Temporary POstponement of the
Expedition to Spain.
EUROPE CANNOT STOP IT
NO ATTENTION PAID TO THE
INTERVENTION THREATS.
America Will Not Recognize the
Right of the Powers to Interfere
Expedition VIII Sail As Soon
As Observation-Disclosures Span
iards Flee From the Coast.

| Washington, July 21.-Statements
have been published that the Watson
expedition to the shores of Spain had
been abandoned. Secretary Long this
afternoon authorized a specific denial
of their accuracy.
THE expedition said the secretary.
has not been abandoned, but merely
deferred until the Porto Rico situation
is clearer, so that we may know better
what ships it will be necessary to re-
tain in American waters. The only
question was whether the expedition
would sail now or a week or so hence.
1t will be sent to Spain when the Porto
Rican campaign permits
Referring to Watson's visit to the
Spanish coast, Secretary Long added,
in response to inquiries, that there was
no fear of its bringing about any pro-
tests from or complications with any
of the powers. He ridiculed as absurd
certain reports that some of the powers
might make trouble if Watson goes TO
the peninsula.
Had the army troopships been able
to go to Porto Rico without naval
convoy, the Watson squadron could
have got away within the next few
days, as the war board had wished to
close all preliminaries by next Sunday.
But as the battleShip Massachusetts,
cruisers Columbia, Cincinnati. Dixie
and Yale, together with several lesser
craft, were considered necessary as
convoy for the Miles expedition. this
changes the plans slightly. The Dixie
is almost certain to be in the Watson
squadron, and the Massachusetts is
likely to be. Secretary Long expressly
says, however, that the delay of the
Watson squadron is incident to the
conveying of the troops to Porto Rico,
and does not mean that the start will
be postponed until the Porto Rico oper-
ations are concluded.
The report from Barcelona that the
people were so fearful of the approach
of the Watson squadron that they were
urging France to establish a protecto-
rate over all the Catalonia district, in
Guiding Barcelona, was dismissed by
officials and by the diplomatic corps
best informed in the affairs of France,
as fantastic speculation, unwarranted
by any actual movement now on foot.
1t is said to be thoroughly well estab-
lished that France is not lending a
helping hand to Spain in any of her
Affections.
1t is still the steadfast purpose of the
administration to send a squadron to
European waters. 1t feels justified in
this because the notion
still prevails that the war can only be
terminated by striking a blow at Spain
direct, and the United States is not
to recognize the right of any
country or combination of countries to
prevent it from seeking the enemy
where it is to be foun6-in this case, in
Spain proper

in favor of the Intervention of France,
and that steps are about to be taken
to formally invite France to take Cata-
lcnia, of which Barcelona is the cap
ital. and which has an area of over
u 900 miles. under her protection.
Still another special dispatch from
the capital of Spain asserts that the
inhabitants of the Canary islands are
panic-stricken at the prospect of an
American attack. The wealthy people
have gone into the interior. Great
misery prevails, trade is at a stand
still. and there is considerable military
activity everywhere. especially at Lam
zarote and Graciosa isles, which are ex-
pected to be the detectives of the
American attack, where strong garri-
sons are reported to have been INSTALL
ed and powerful batteries erected on
mountains dominating the islands.

CUBAN GENERAL D|SGUSTED
GARCIA WITHDRAWS HIS ARMY
TO THE HILLS.
Claims He Has Been Snubbed and
Will No Longer Cooperate With
Shafter-Palma Discredits Story.

New York, July PA Santiago -spe-
cial to the Journal dated July 20, says
that General Garcia has written a let
ter to General Shafter, declaring that
he is disguised with his treatment at
the hands of the Americans, and will,
therefore, withdraw his forces to the
hills.
Among the things of which General
Garcia complains is the failure of the
American commander to officially no.
tify him of the surrender of the Span
ish force under General Toral, and he
is also incensed at the alleged fact that
he was not invited to be present at
the ceremony attending the formal
capitulation of Santiago
Another grievance is the retention of
the Spanish civil authorities in the ad-
ministration of their functions in San
tiago.
Fer these reasons Garcia declares he
will no longer cooperate with the
forces under General Skaters COM
mand. but will act independently, as he
did before the American troops landed
in Cuba

Fear the yankee Pigs"
London, July pa dispatch to the
Standard from Corunna gives a lively
account of the stampede into the coun-
try, owing to the fears of the approach
ing American squadron. The CORE
spondent says there is a daily stream
of bullock cars with furniture. and the
town is nearly deserted by the better
class of Inhabitants. The local papers
there have frightened the people so
much that the captain general sum-
moned the editors and threatened them
all with imprisonment if they printed
one word about Commodore Watson's
squadron. The exodus. however, shows
no signs of diminishing.
A pamphlet has been distributed
among the workingmen, urging them
to demand peace at all costs, owing to
the terrible distress and the lack of
work and food. 1t is evident that there
will be trouble in Corunna, says the
correspondent, and the working classes
will make it. unless something is
promptly done.

/ permission to pay u visit to the Dris-

but he has been a citizen of the United
! States since 1886. He has just returned
after days visit at Annapolis. He re-
! ceiyed courteous treatment from Ad-
! miral McNair. and had conversations
with Admiral Cervera and his officers
After explaining to a reporter that the
purpose of his visit was to offer such
aid as the Spanish officers might need,
! Mr.. Castillo said:
Admiral Celvera and his officers ex-
pressed great gratitude for the gener-
] Gus treatment of the United States gov
eminent. Nothing that could add to
their physical comfort has been
! omitted
Mr.. Castillo said that the view that
the Spanish fleet was outclassed pre-
the ships lay in Santiago bay.
There was always a shortage of
coal" MIR. Castillo said. They could
not iniure the American fleet because
they came out of Santiago harbor in
single file. Each ship was pounded as
she came OUT MT. CdStlliO SAID the
Spanish government had sent a draft
for $4,000 for the expenses of the men
in this country, and that the money is
now available.
Admiral Cervera's figures show that
20 of his officers were lost. He has
learned that one who was reported as
missing has turned up at Santiago.
''Have Admiral Cervera and his Of
ficers formed any plans for the flu
ture?"
Plans" said Mr.. Castillo, with
laugh, they are prisoners"
CERVERA MAY STAY.
Annapolis, Md, July 21.-A well de-
fined rumor, which cannot, however, be
traced to an authoritative source, was
on everybodys lips here today to the
effect that Admiral Cervera had ex-
pressed a determination not to return
to his native country at the close of
hostilties between the United States
and Spain. II is said that the admiral
has decided to take up his residence in
Boston, whittier he will repair with his
son, Lieutenant Cervera, who is also a
prisoner here, as soon as peace is de- |
clared.
The Spanish officers who arrived last |
night on the Harvard were escorted
through the city today by members of !
the first contingent of prisoners, and |
seem well satisfied with their quarters.
Captain Eulate adheres to his orig
inai objection, and refuses to sign the |
parole agreement. He is gloomy and |
morose, associating little, if any. with /
his brother officers.

About two months e the bulk OF

The good business the roads and lake
