Will Probably Remain in New York
Harbor Until the End of
the Week.

New York, Feb. 23-The weather was
clear to-day, and the wharveS and shores
of Staten Island were crowded with people
who came from all parts of the surround
ing country to see the Spanish cruiser
Vizcaya, at anchor off TompkinsvilIe.
The crew of the cruiser were called to
quarters shortly after 4. m. and were put
to work slowing away the coal supply
which was taken aboard Tuesday. Great
care is being taken in putting the coal on
board. Every basketful is inspected by
the officers before 1t is put into the bum
kers.
Two steam launches were added TO the
police patrol to-day. making five in all.
The report that Captain Eulate. Of the
Nizcaya, had received orders to coal his
vessel in haste, was denied on the ship.
From what could be learned from the Of
ficers. the Vizcaya will in all probability
remain here until the end of the week.
The only incident that happened to-day
to mar the quiet about the warship occur
red shortly after noon. When the men Of
the Vizcaya were coaling. a barrel with a
red disk fastened to it fioated alongside of
the vessel. 1t was painted red. with the
seams heavily coated with coal tar. Sew
era! of the men saw 1t and it was hoisted
on board and carefully examined. 1t was

rather primitive, and the work of visit
ing ships in the harbor is tedious At the
palace during the hours when Lieutenant
Colonel MendeZ, the censor. Is present,
there can always be found long line of
newspaper men, anxiously awaiting his
approval or disapproval of their matter
and his affixing of the official seal All
proofs of daily newspapers published here
and matter for newspapers in Spain must
be censored.
An American officer of rank sufficient to
entitle him to take command of a ship is
authority for the statement that a Spanish
naval officer some time ago sold to the
Washington state department a map OF
Havana harbor showing submarine mines.
The Spanish residents deny this statement
and say that the mines exist only in imag-

INTENSE ANXIETY IN HAVANA.
Spanish Officials Realize That a Rup-
ture With the United States
Threatens.

Washington, Feb 23.-The Evening Star
has received the following from Charles NJ
Pepper, its staff correspondent in Havana.
recognized as one of the most reliable of
Cuban correspondents:
Inquiry into the Maine disaster pro-
crosses along definite lines. The results
so far may be summed up in the statement
that the probabilities that it was an acci-
dent seem to decrease with the progress
of the investigation.
The most intense anxiety is shown by
the Spanish officials here. who are in con-
stant communication with Madrid. They
realize that the relations with the United
States were never SO much in danger of
rupture as row. This is the general feel
ing.
''The commercial classes here are hope
full of American Intervention on peaceful
lines. but what they base their hopes on
is unknown.

military successes. The autonomists are
restless and some OF the leaders seem on
the point Of breaking away from the gov
ernment- Army officers continue to show
an anti-American sentiment. They are ap-

DEFENSES TO BE INSPECTED.
Major General Merritt Left New York
Yesterday for q Trip Down
the Coast.

New York, Feb. 2S-Major General Mer-
ritt, commander Of the department of the
East, left to-day for an inspection of the
defenses on the Atlantic coast south Of
New York. His route is understood to in
clude Atlanta. New Orleans. Mobile. PEN
sacola and Savannah, those cities being
visited in the order names. Through one
of his aides, the general annouced that his
trip was his regular annual inspection.
The World says, regarding the trip:
This sudden move upon the part of Gen.
eral Merritt. following so closely upon the
recent order of General Miles relative to
the absolute necessity of completing the
new works of defense at the Notifications
throughout the country. has created quite
a sensation in army circles. Ostensibly he
is simply going on his annual tour of in
spection, but at the island, Fort Wads-
worth and Fort Hamilton. it is understood
that his mission is of far greater import
ance than the regulation visit to the sta
tions under his command.
1T is believed that the work on the new
ordnance for the Southern Notifications has
not been going on with sufficient rapidity
to satisfy either General Miles or General
Merritt
