when il was unwise TO bring in any prop

excitement among the naval officers

excitement among the naval officers
here.
The admiral himself knew nothing CT
the change until shown the Associated
Press dispatch Captain Sampson was
notified of his promotion through the
same sources.
The selection of Captain Sampson
was somewhat of &, surprise. That Off
Ger although of great expectance, was
hardly considered a favorita for the
command of what many think will be
fighting squadron His health of late
has not been of the best. A high naval
officer said to the Associated Press cor
respondent:
Captain SIMPSONS appointment may
not be particularly popular but it is
one of the best things ever done by the
department. Under his reserve there
exists a spirit of indomitable energy
and determination. If it ever comes to
a brush he will justify his selection ten
fold.'
The appointment of Captain RobIey
EVenS, Fighting Bob to command
the Iowa, has created intense enthusi-
and caused great satisfaction all
around. Rear Admiral Sicard will re-
turn home on waiting orders, and the
Iowa probably will remain the flag
ship.
The pathos of Rear Admiral Sicard's
retirement at this critical stage ap-
peals to all who have known or served
under him. One naval officer said this
evening:
1T was evident that the admiral's
failing health made it impossible for
him to retain command at this trying
juncture. But the way in which he has
struggled against bodily ailments in
the endeavor to devote the closing
months of a splendid 40 years service
to active duty is a silent chapter of he
rOism as gallant as any victory in naval
history
AS the long days of waiting for the
report dwindle into hours, the suspense
at this naval rendezvous grows in
tense. Passengers from Havana report
the same condition there. Some fear
that if the court finds that the Maine
was blown up Intentionally a riot will
follow the announcement at Havana.
This fOrbOding, however, is merely in
line with peSsimiStic rumOrS which have
had more credence here than in the
Cuban capital.

10 VESSELS BOUGHT.
Secretary Long Spends a Million for
Tugs and Yachts.

New York, March 25.-A special to the
Herald from Washington says;
By direction of President Mckinley,
Secretary Long spent something more
than a million dollars Thursday in the
purchase of IL speedy yachts and sea-
going tugs, which will be at once con-
verted into torpedo boat destrOyers and
picket boats.
In directing the purchase of yachts
and tugs, President Mckinley was
guided by the information showing that
the Spanish torpedo fotilla has sailed
from the Canary islands for Porto
Rico.
Before this information came to hand
the authorities were not willing to pay
the high prices asked by the owners Of
yachts and tugs which had been in
spected and recommended for purchase
by the auxiliary cruiser board, but the
necessity of improving a torpedo feet
to offset that which Spain is sending to
Porto Rico was so apparent that the
president authorized that negotiations
be closed and that the vessels be pur-
chased without further delay
Secretary Long at once telegraphed
to Capt. Rodgers, president of the
board and received a telegram an
nouncing that the bargains had been
closed and that the vessels would at
once be turned over to the government
at the Brooklyn navy yard.

HOPES MKINLEY WILL WAIT.
Spain Would Like to Exchange a Few
Letters First

New York, March 25.-A dispatch to
the World from Madrid says:
The feeling among statesmen and
fnanciers is pessimistic. Even the
most moderate of the newspapers and
the friends of the ministers admit that
American-Spanish affairs have entered
upon a very critical stage.
The council of ministers decided to
send by cable a note to Washington, ex-
pressing surprise the Impartial reports,
at receiving a request for permission to
destroy the wreck Of the Maine before
the two governments have communi-
Gated officially to each other the reports
of their respective commissions of in
vestigation, with data, essential to de-
termine subsequent action.
Spain hopes President Mckinley will
await the customary exchange of cor
respondence before seeking to begin ne
gotiations on a matter requiring the ut
most sincerity, because SPANS honor
and dignity demand public recognition
of the honesty of her acts and inten-
lions.

affinities of race. On the other hand
the generous people of a sister repub-

Says Her Boats Can Run Over
From Porto Rico
And Destroy the Whole Fleet
as Matters Stand.
SHOULD BE STOPPED
Or Immediate Measures Taken
For Proper Protection.
Every Ship in the Navy is Need
ed in Cuban Waters.

Key West, Fla, March 25.-It was not
until today that the news of the de-
parture of the Spanish torpedo hotilla
from the Canary islands became known
among the naval officers here. It Gre
ated intense feeling, especially among
the officers of the torpedo boats which
are in this harbor. One of the most
prominent of these officers said today:
IF the United States allows the Span
ish boats to get to Porto Rico, it viii
be the biggest mistake ever made. They
are a greater menace to our fleet than
If all the rest of the Spanish navy was
brought to these waters.
At Porto Rico they will be nearer
Key west than Cuba. Only two tor
pedO boats in our navy would have any
chance in getting away from the Span
ish torpedo boat destrOyers. The Iowa,
New York and Indiana lying out there
six miles off the land would practically
be at the mercy of a dozen Spanish tor
pedo boats which could run over from
Porto Rico in a short time, should war
be declared We have no protected
harbors here and we have not a single
torpedo boat destroyer, and unless a
feet powerful enough to be proof
against these torpedo boats is quickly
concentrated in these waters, or unless
the Spanish fiOtilla is warned TO keep
further away, l should judge that it
would be better to take every United
States warship as far away as possible
from this menacing force, which Spain
intends TO concentrate within such a
convenient distance as Porto Rico.
1T is very well to talk of peace and
say that there is no probability of war,
but at the same time, while interna-
tional relations are strained, displays
of force should be met with alacrity
and as a torpedo expert, I must say
that if every ship in the United States
navy was brought into these waters.
it would be none too formidable a dis
play when the strength of the Spanish
hOtilla is considered"
