.ENEMVS LOSS AT CARDENAS.
Two Spanish Gunboats Destroyed by Shells
From the Wilmington.


KEY WEST, Fla, May 23.-The tug
Leyden, Ensign w. S. Crossley, COM
mander. which picked up off Cay Pie
dras light Wednesday night an open
boat containing five Cubans, one of
whom, Ernest Castro, had important
dispatches from General Gomez to Gen
eral Miles, put the other four ashore at
the east end of Cay Blanco last night.
Castro proceeded to Tampa to deliver
his messages.
The Cubans put ashore had given the
officers of the tug considerable infor-
nation regarding the situation in Car
denas, where they lived, since the bat
tie in which the torpedo boat Winslow
was disabled and the first American
officer and sailors lost their lives. The
Spaniards' loss in the battle, the Gu
bans said, was one officer killed and
five men wounded. The officers head
was blown off. AS the result of the
battle there are no longer any Span
ish gunboats in the harbor of Car
denas. Two of those that were there
were destroyed by the shells from the
Wilmington, and from the third one
the guns have been removed and re-
mounted on the dock behind stone
wall built to protect them. The Span
iards, the Cubans said, have sunk
three lighters in the passage where the
Winslow went through the day of the
battle.
The Leyden landed insurgents again
last night without any molestation
from shore. When picked up by the
Leyden, the Cubans had been out six
lays waiting to be picked up and were
nearly exhausted while their boat was
all but ready to swamp.

SANTIAGO A FATAL MISTAKE.
A British Expert Thinks That the Span

Change In French Sentimcnt-Spain
Derided by Prominent Papers.

LONDON, May 23.-According to the
best expert opinion in London, if Ad-
miral Cervera has gone to Santiago de
Cuba, he has made fatal mistake.
Vice Admiral Philip Howard
Columb, retired, the author of a
number of naval works, in
Guiding "The Naval War Game,
writes that he is convinced the Span
ish admiral is now unlikely to strike
at ALL He adds that if he enters a
South Cuban port it will scarcely affect
the United States blockade, for Rear
Admiral Sampson will only have to de-
tach somewhat superior force of his
heasier ships to cover Cervera's fleet,
while a group of the lightest and
swif,est vessels would be watching to
see that he did not move without being
reported, and all the rest of Rear Adj
miral Simpsons fleet could devote
themselves to the blockade of the other
Cuban ports.
NEW YORK, May 90. A dispatch
from Paris to the New York World
says: There are remarkable indications
in certain Paris journals, hitherto in
imical, of complete reversal of the
French disposition toward America.
The Gaulois, for example, extols the
cleverness with which Admiral Samp-
son has Unanswered, taking advantage
Of his opponents slowness to effect
junction with Schley and thus enable
him to divide the forces in two parts.
M. Jaures, in the Petite Republique,
writes in the same strain of Americas
admirable attack and defense, which
have been directed with energy and
life"
NJ Jaures derides Spain for allowing
herself to be made the sport of clerical
ism and militarism.
There is also a strong article in the
Echo de Paris, signed Henry Baure,
calling French hostility to her ancient
friends and clients beyond the Atlantic
foolish and illogical.
France the writer says, lis nat
urally drawn to America as republic,
and should not give way to sudden ten
derness for Spain"
On the other hand, Henry Fouquier,
in the DiXneuvicme Steele, writes in
vein hardly short of insulting to Amer
lean women for their alleged snobbish-
ness in seeking to make out long line
of aristocratic ancestors.

Dead and Two Dying.
WERE ALL FROM ST. LOUIS.
Near Chickamauga Park a Passenger
Train Ran Down the Special Carrying
the volunteers-Twelve Men Hurt
The Engineer Under Arrest.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, May 23.-One
man is dead and two fatally injured as
the result of a wreck this morning on
the Chattanooga, Rome g. Southern
railway between Chattanooga and the
volunteer camp at Chicl1amauga. The
dead and injured all belonged to the
First regiment, Missouri volunteer in
fantry. The dead:
George Walker, artificer, Company D.
The injured:
Alfred M. Lane, private, both legs
broken, will die.
Harvard Balasl1i, private, leg broken,
internal injuries, will die.
E. r. Richards, first lieutenant, Com
pany H, badly cut about arms and
shoulders.
There were several others badly, but
not fatally, injured.
The train on which the most damage
was done was carry ng the First Mis-
souri, from Chattanooga to the park.
The last car of this rain was loaded
with horses of the officers
The military train was standing on
the Chattanooga, Rome &c Southern
track, just beyond the crossing of the
belt line, about half mile from Ross
vile. 1t was crashed into by the reg
ular southbound morning Chattanooga,
Rome & Southern passenger train. 1t
is said that there was no flagman on
the military train.
The shock was severe. The locomo-
tive of the passenger train was jammed
into the horse car, and this car COM
pletely wrecked the baggage car, which
was the next one forward. The man
who was killed and those badly in
jured were all on the horse car. Every
thing was done to stop the passenger
train when the other was seen, but it
was going at too great speed. The en-
gineer, w. G. Wheeler, stuck to his
post to the last and escaped with only
a manned ankle. He and his fireman
were at once arrested and placed under
a squad of soldiers. They are gravely
censured by the soldiers for running
so rapidly with special train ahead of
them.
All the horses of the officers. valu-
able animals, were killed. The for
ward coaches of the military train were
bailey shaken, but no injury was done
to any one in them. The damage
would have been much greater had the
train not been made up in exactly the
reverse of the usual order. If it had gone
out in regular order the sleepers
would have been in the rear.
and the officers who occupied
them would have been in great
danger. The wounded, about twelve
in all, were taken ut once in charge by
Surgeon Wills of the First battalion of
the regiment. Colonel Edwin Batdorf,
commanding the regiment, is doing
everything possible for the sufferers.
Lieutenant Colonel John Jacob Astor
of New York and number of troops
were on the regular train. They were
not injured.
The First Missouri Volunteer infant
ry is st. Louis regiment. 1t is COM
posed of 1,050 st. Louis young men.
Thursday evening the regiment, under
the command of Colonel Edwin Bat
dorf, left Jefferson barricks over the
Illinois Central railroad in three Sec
tions, for Chickamauga.

"CIRCUMSTANTIAL CABINET"
Nickname Given to SPANS New Ministry
Aggressive War Policy.

Aggressive War Policy.
MADRID, May 23.-The ministers in
full uniform appeared in the senate
yesterday. Owing to the circum-
stances, the new cabinet is already
nicknamed the "Circumstantial cabi-
net" The premier, Senior Sagasta, ex-
planned the ministerial crisis and as
serted that the new ministry will con-
tinue the policy of the former minis
try. He related how "Spain did
everything to avoid war until America,
violating all recognized diplomacy, at
tackled Spain with an injustice unpre-
cedentcd in the annals of civilized his
tory, and compelled Spain to respond
with war to war, which Spain would
continue tout outrance Ito the ut
most), until an honorable peace is OBJ
tanned"
"This," the premier continued, sis a
strong policy, and the new government
will also theoretically conduct nego-
tiations with European and other
states"
In presenting the new ministers to
the chamber, Senior Sagasta explained
that the appointment of minister of
foreign affairs had been postponed be-
cause Senior Leon y Castillo had not
accepted the portfolio, being detained
in Paris by very important negotia-
tions which may lead to fresh develop
ments in the present grave situation"

Cervera's Exploit Regarded as Proof Of
the Ineffectiveness of the Blockade.

the InefYectiveness of the Blockade.
LONDON, May s3.-The Madrid CORE
spondent of the Daily News says:
admiral Cervera's dispatch from
Santiago de Cuba to the minister Of
marine contained further details fol
the information of the government
alone. 1t is pointed out here that the
American plan was to gain command OF
the sea as condition to future move.
ments. Admiral Cervera's brilliant
move-reminding one. of Lord Nelson's
race from the West Indies to Trafalgar
and his escape from the French-de-
prives America of the command of the
sea, and demonstrates to the world
that the blockade of Cuba is merely
nominal.
admiral Cervera has given the slip
to two powerful fleets that have been
securing the ocean for fortnight in
an endeavor to catch him. All the
American schemes depend thereupon.
Admiral Cervera, with four cruiser
and few destroyers, alone in the At
lantic, ignoring events in Cuba and
Porto Rico, and the position of the
American squadron, has out-man-
euvered, disorganized and dispersed
the latter, making the Americans be-
lieve they were threatened on every
side.
"The torpedo boats Azor, Rayo and
Ariete steamed from the Cape Verde
islands to the Canaries with the utmost
precautions, hugging the coast by day
and covering their lights by night.
The Ariete, slightly damaged, was
towed by the Ciudad de Cadiz and the
transports carried the smaller boats of
the Vizcaya, the Almirante Oquendo,
the Cristobal Colon and the Infanta
Maria Teresa, probably in order that
these vessels might be kept cleared, in
view of possible battle"
