Madrid, May cG.-The newspapers urge
TIE government IL construct batteries
on the heights dominating Gibraltar;
but it is asserted semi-officially that the
government will not commit an I'M
friendly act against England so long as
there is no proof of an Anglo American
alliance. If. however, such an alliance
should become an accomplished fact
the government would be constrained to
adopt measures to secure the country

of the Spanish fleet in the harbor of
Santiago. There We're rumors yester-
day to the effect that Admiral Cervera
might not be in Santiago, and two or
three of the cable officers did not hest
tate to express some skepticism as to the
Spanish admirals presence there. 1t Is
known. however that Schley has re-
ported that he has the enemy safely
Gagged. 1t is hardly likely that he has
sent this information of his personal
knowledge. for the miniature noun
tains which rise between the inner
basin of the harbor and the sea prevent
an actual sight of the ships.
There is general belief that Cervera
hopes To soon hear of the arrival of re-
Inducements from CadiZ. His maneu-
vers have indicated that he is awaiting
reinforcements. and it is believed that
the need of economizing his coal supply
which he has found difficulty in replen-
ishing, necessitated his seeking a har-
Dor of refuge. where he could enjoy COM
parative immunity from attack until re-
Inducements, accompanied by trans
ports, should arrive to join him. 1t re-
quired too great risk for him to at
tempt to reach Cienfuo Cos. and he was
then left to choose between Santiago de
Cuba and San Juan. Porto Rico.

The call for 5000 additional voun-
t,ers which was issued Wednesday
makes it clear that the president expects
the war with Spain to continue for some
time. II has b an recently demonstrated
that the unframed volunteer soldier will
require from three to six months con-
slant drill and instruction to bring him
up to the requisite standard of efficiency,

New York, May 6.-With Commodore
Schley and Admiral Sampson guarding
the entrance to the harbor of Santiago,
the Cuban junta believes that the en-
trapping of Admiral Cervera will neces-
state the sending to Cuba of heavy ar
tillery. This, Mr.. Rubens, legal adviser
of the junta, said. will have to be con-
vayed to and planted in the hills behind
Santiago, from which vantage point
Admiral Cervera will be forced into Il
sea battle on the outside. Should Ger
vera be forced into an encounter on sea
outside the port with Commodore Schley
or Admiral Sampson, the guns on the

would practically be of no assistance to
the Spanish commander, as they are
trained only for harbor protection.
