Observations have been made recent
of the extraordinary DETECTION of the
magnetic needle which takes place over
vast tract of central Russia. The
line selected for observation was one of
about $50 miles, between Moscow and
Kharkov. The widest alterations are
found to exist in the province of Kursl,
the capital of which is about GOO miles
south of Moscow. In the southeast por-
ton of this province, about $50 miles
south of Tim, the needle is DETECTED
more than 96 degrees. and points al
most due east and west instead of north
and south.

be run into them without molestation
from the vessels OF the United States
The coast guard of Spain in Cuba
is made up of few small vessels the
powerful ships of war having been
withdrawn in order to carry out some
plan of operations, at this time known
only to the Spanish naval officers. This
method of warfare will go on until the
United States land forces can be made
ready and the opportunity reached for
cooperation with the fleet. Time would
be lost that can now be employed to
advantage if the volunteers that are
to be called into the service should first
be required to be fully organized be-
fore the blockade was fully established
According to our consuls and Others
almost absolute dependence has been
placed for supplies of meat and other
provisions for the army of Spain upon
the foreign markets. The stocks on
hand are low, and will be speedily ex-
hausted. The spirits Of the army will
be lost as soon as starvation is added
to failure to pay. When weakness is
added to illness and dissatisfaction, the
fresh troops of the United States would
be an unequal match for troops poorly
disciplined and worse fed, even in the
most propitiouS of times.

HAWAII MAY BE SEIZED.
War Measure Endorsed By Senate
Fnreiosn Relations Committee.

Washington, April 22.-Members of
the senate committee on foreign rela-
lions are generally without informa-
ton as to the plans of the administra-
ton in Hawaii, but some of them en-
dorse the idea of securing the Pacific
islands by seizure at this time, IN
view of their strategic Importance.
Senator Davis, chairman of the COM
Inittee, is among those who holds this
view. He said today that he considered
that the United States would be en-
tirely justified in taking the islands in
case of war as a war measure. They
would" he said. be necessary for our
own vessels, and we would be justified
IL their seizure at such time to pre-
vent their falling into the hands of
our enemies, TO whom they would be
invaluable.
What Is to prevent Spain sending a
cruiser to Honolulu and Selling the
country, together with our property
interests, including our coal, of which,
/ understand. there is quite a supply
in the islands? Furthermore, there
are in Hawaii many American citi-
zens whose interests it is necessary we
should protect For this and other
reasons I should endorse the taking
possession by the United States in time
of war with another country, into
whose hands they might fall. We, of
course. know that the Hawaiian gov
eminent is friendly to annexation, so
that requirement by this means would
not be so violent a proceeding as it
might seem under other circum-
stances"
It is held that in case possession was
acquired in this way, there would be
necessity for confirmation action by
congress.

PURPOSE OF BLOCKADE.
Will Harass Blanco and Leave In
surgents Free.

New York, April pa special to the
Times from Washington says: At
about the hour that Captain Sampson
Key West squadron was making its
appearance off Havana, to carry out
the plans Of the administration for
blockading the principal ports of Cuba,
the president was issuing his procla-
nation, announcing that blockade, and
thus shutting out from Captain Cen
eraI Blanco and his forces the pro-
visions and reinforcements upon which
he must del end to be able to main
tain the fighting ability of his soldiers
and to fill up the ranks, thinned by dis
ease and other causes.
The biOckading plan is but a step
toward the development of a larger
plan yet to be unfolded.
A glance at the map of Cuba, bear
ing in mind the words of the procla-
nation of the president, viii show only
that the blockade is cOntrived to op-
press Blanco and afford the largest OPP
pGrtunity TO Gomez and his insurgent
bands TO assemble in force and con-
tribute their part 10 the driving out
of SDain's forces. The ports on the
north side of Cuba, from Cardenas on
the east to Bahia Honda on the west
and Cienfuegos on the south, are those
by which only Blanco can expect to
secure aid from the sea. The middle
section of the island is that in
which the Spanish forces have
been and are concentrated All
of the Ear eastern provinces and the
extreme west of Cuba are substan-
tally in the hands of the insurgents
or abandoned by the Spanish. The
ports of those sections will remain I'M
covered and aid for the insurgents can

M'KINLEY's FIRST CALL.

Washington, April 22.-Secretary AIger
today took to the White House for the
presidents signature the proclamation
prepared at the war department for 100 900
men to serve as volunteers for one year.
In many respects the call follows the out
lines of the first made by President Lin
coin. April 10, 1861. when he asked for To-
coo men.
Necessarily there are number of
changes. because of the different purposes
for which the volunteers are asked. If

The governors will communicate the time
at which such militia will be expected at

FLEET AT CAPE DE VERDE.
No News Received Indicating Depar.
ture of Spaniards.

Washington, April PIP to noon today
nothing has been received by the govern
ment indicating that the Spanish fleet had
left Cape de Verde islands.
What may be the purpose of the Spanish
government as to the disposition of this
fleet is not known, but the belief among
high officials is that the Spaniards will
hesitate before sending the pick of their
navy into American or Cuban waters. 1t
must be realized, il is said, that, cut off
from coal supply, they will be at a great
disadvantage. and would run great risk
of total annihilation. Nor is ii believed
that Captain General Blaneo will be in a
hurry 10 precipitate conflict and there
fore IL is not expected that Captain Samp-
sons fleet will have very much to do dur
ing the next few days but to prevent sup
plies from entering Havana.
Nevertheless, it is believed that hos

The number of troops in the camp
was today increased by about 5000.
Fifteen train loads of infantry, cav
airy and artillery arrived during the
day. and were conveyed as rapidly as
possible to the park. The troops are
now arriving so fast that the railroads
are experiencing some difficulty IN
handling them properly.

The increased strength of the artll-
lery companies from four to six pieces.
which has been ordered, has rendered
necessary the purchase of about 500
horses. and this fact is giving General
Lee a great deal of trouble. He spent a
great deal of time today in an I'M
awaiting effort TO find suitable animals.
Sunday promises to be a gala day at
Chickamauga. Every railroad run
