Queen Regent Urged to Fly.

LONDON, May 26.-There are
renewed sinister predictions of an
impending revolution in Spain
contained in a special dispatch
from Madrid to-day. Emperor
Francis Joseph of Austria is
said to have strongly ad-
vised the Queen Regent to pre-
pare to fly, and her mother, who is
now in Madrid, is reported to have
given her the same advice; but it
is added the Queen Regent is de-
termined to remain. Continuing,
the dispatch says: "The defeat
of the Spanish fleet, which the
best informed people regard as
only question of few days, is
bound to precipitate an outbreak"

CuriOPs Lack of omcial and Press In
formation Regarding the situa-
tiOn at Santiago de Cuba.

KEY WEST, Fla, May 26.-Definite news
of the American squadrons operating in
Cuban waters was received here this after
noon. Commodore Schley is believed to be
off Santiago de Cuba to-day. and definite
Information as to the exact situation, in so
far as it affects Admiral Cereva's squadron,
may be expected tonight or tomorrow.
Rear Admiral Sampson is in position to
proceed quickly to the assistance of Com
modore Schley with any or all of his ships
on receipt of definite word from Commodore
SchIey, and at the same time ne remains
within striking distance of Havana. If,
however, Commodore Schey reports that
Admiral Cervera is bottled up at Santiago
de Cuba, the naval view is that he will be
permitted to finish the business at that
point with the ships now under his direct
command.
The blockading squadron, under Comn1o-
dore Watson is thought to be on duty along
the western and northern coast of Cuba
The composition of the three squadrons has
been changed, but the exact complement
and names OF the ships under each COM
mander is not permitted. for strategic rea-
sons, to be telegraphed. Concerning the
statement that Admiral Cervera's ships are
bottled up at Santiago de Cuba, it has been
accepted that Commodore Schley could
maintain the blockade of the harbor there
and annihilate the Spanish fleet If it is
found outside. The fact that Commodore
Schley is now thought to be outside of San
tiago de Cuba has given free reign to Rear
Admiral Sampson, who is known to be in
the Bahama channel. His known purpose
was trying TO intercept the Spanish fleet If
it attempted to reach Havana. With Com
nnodore Schley at Santiago de Cuba, Rear
admiral Sampson would be in the position
to proceed eastward and effect junction
of the two powerful squadrons or to return
TO Havana to resume operations in that
vicinity. 1t is now accepted as a fact that
Commodore Schley is to be permitted to
work out the problem off Santiago de Cuba

Another Armada to Be Formed


MADRID, May 26.-It is cur
rently reported here this afternoon
that the Spanish government has
ordered all the Spanish steamers
from 1000 tons up, capable of
steaming speed of twelve knots,
to be impressed as auxiliary
cruisers. The Spanish command
ers at the various ports, it is
added, have been instructed to
take charge of such steamers,
whether mail boats or otherwise.

NO OFFICIAL ADvICEs.
Navy Department. without News from
SchIey or Sampson.

Schley or sampson.
WASHINGTON, May 26-Secretary Long
said at the close of office hours to-day that
no word had come from any Of the scouting
vessels, so numerous in West Indian waters,
concerning the Spanish flying squadron,
wherefore he concluded that Cervera was
still in Santiago harbor. 1t is supposed
Schley is lying outside watching the en-
trance to prevent the egress of the Spanish
vessels, but while there is evidence of a GER
tain kind on that fact, there has been no
official confirmation of 1t. This is a little
remarkable in view of the fact that 1t is
only days run for one of Schley's swift
torpedo boats from Santiago to a cable port
in Haiti. There IS also a curious lack of
Information from the newspaper dispatch
boats on this point. 1t supposed that
the censor might have excised from the dis
patches Of the newspaper men any reference
TO the fleets, but this would apply, accord
Ing TO the statement of the Navy Depart
ment officials here, only to that part of the
dispatches that might relate to the move
ments and whereabouts of the United States
forces. and the censor's rules would not
exclude reference to the Spanish squadron
Notwithstanding the officials profess un-
shaken confidence in their original belief
that the Spanish squadron is securely bot
tied up in Santiago harbor, there is no con-
cealment by them of an intense desire to
secure some absolutely trustworthy infor-
nation on that point 1t is not to be
DOUBTED that with the question still open
the beginning OF the military operations is
retarded, for as long as there exists possi-
bility OF the Spanish naval force being at
large there ia an indisposition 10 start the
troop transports for Cuba
That Admiral Cervera went to Santiago
and is still there continues to be the view
taken by the Navy Department At the
same time, as already stated. not a word
has been received from either Admiral
Sampson or Commodore Schley in official
confirmation OF the belief that Cervera. has
been trapped. 1t rests now, as 1t did two
days ago, on a semi-official report coming
70 the Navy Department from source be-
lieyed to be reliable. 1t was not a naval
source nor one connected with the State
Department; neither did it come from press
advices. 1t was from parties having rela-
tions with the Navy Department and in a
position to be accurately advised. The naval
authorities were extremely anxious to se
cure an official confirmation from one OF the
American commanders, and had this been
received II would have been made public at
once. But lacking this. the department
gave TO the public what 1t felt warranted in
giving from the facts at hand, namely, an
expression Of belief that the Spanish fleet
was in Santiago harbor. This has been re-
inforced by the negative fact that the feet
has been seen al no other point and also
BY cumulative evidence from London ana
