On BOARD STEAMER OLIVETTE,
TAMPA BAY. June II. 1888


Still waiting But we are promised that
with no new complications, we shall leave
in day or two at the latest. 1t is now
officially stated that the last delay was
caused by the report that two Spanish
cruisers had been seen by and had chased
one or more of our blockaders and IL was
not thought best 10 expose our transports
TO danger of capture or destruction from
that source.
As water-ship, the Olivette has much
to do.
ST. Petersburg is a nice little hamlet
lying on the west shore of the bay, and
about eight miles from the end of the mole
at Port Tampa. Not far back from the
shore is a large spring of fine water, one
of those for which Florida is celebrated,
and which, like most of the things OF
value in southern Florida. is owned by
The Plant System. From this. and an
artisan well ali the water used by YES
sells in the harbor, except very small
proportion, which Is produced by conden-
sation on board, is supplied. For what is
used 10y the Government, l am told, one
cent per gallon is paid. Owing TO sinai
lowness of wafer near the shore a pier
runs out nearly half a mile, and six
inch pipe conveys the precious fluid 10 Its
termination. where huge hose Is attach
ed and, through a port, IS carried on
board. About one hour and q half is the
time required to fill the 0000- gallon tanks.
For distribution to other vessels, after
running alongside, three or four lines OF
hose are passed across, and then the
steam pump is started. About Z, 900 gal
Ions per hour are thus transferred.
To prevent possible pollution of the
spring, a guard is now stationed there.
Many of the vessels are, notwithstanding
their great capacity, very crowded, as
many as 1 100 men being on some. But
all keep well and in very good spirits, |
though anxious to be off for somewhere. |
There is said by people familiar with The |
locality to be some danger from sharks, |
and fisherman among the gang /
hooked one about four feet long this |
morning, but hundreds OF The men are to
be seen in the wafer almost any hour, and |
this no doubt helps TO keep down the sick /
export
Most of the vessels are now out of the !
canal and grouped, as closely as con-
sistent with safety and ease of movement !
among them, not far from its mouth. AS
a measure of economy in the use of coal, !
they are towed out by a tug which is |
constantly in use for that or other pur-
poses. On board of each is Sergeant
and squad of men belonging to the signal |
service, and wig wagging" goes on at all
hours of the day.

Some of the steamers of the much
talked-of expedition got off down the bay
early this morning, and are now anchored
near Egm0nt Key, waiting for the remain

But, at the risk Of getting of an Irish

Probably FoIi9v- Word From

The most persistent rumors fioated
around the corridors of the State. War
and Navy building yesterday afternoon
relating chiefly to the cutting of the
cable between Key West and Havana.
Some of these rumors originated IN
Washington and others came from New
York, the result OF both being an m
finite number of inquiries at the three
departments as to the truth of the ru-
mors-
1t is not at all unlikely that the State
Department was little shaky itself as
to the truth or falsity. of the news. IL
is believed that it demonstrated the fall
sity of tie news by sending caoie
message to Consul General Lee A re-
sponse was received at 3 p. m. precisely
from Gen. Lee. which contained the in
formation that all was quiet. A dis
patch had been received in the morn
ing from Havana by Minister Dupuy
de LONE, but that was not conclusive
that the cable was intact, as the break
ing or the cutting might have occurred
after the receipt of the dispatch to the
Spanish legation.
The rumor has it's uses, however be-
cause ii has started great deal OF
gossip as being a FANCY that Hleht at
anv time become a fact. 1t was stated
that either a SpaniaId or Cuban fanatic
might cut the cable TO precipitate mat
ters. 1t certainly would precipitate ac-
ton because it is very Well understood
that as soon as it is known that one
end of the cable has been dropped the
Maine and the Montgomery will start
at once for Havana. They VIII reach
Havana in about four hours and half.
If the fleet should be in the n2ighb0r-
hood at the time of the accident or the
design on the cable it will require about
eight hours for the news TO get 10 the
fleet and for ii to make the run to
Havana.
Neither the Maine nor the Montgom-
cry will wait moment to inquire what
causes the break in the cable, and what
the result of these vessels going there,
no matter what causes the break, 1t Is
difficult to foresee. Everybody has at
laast come to the conclusion that II viii
