Washington, May 5.-Spain's Atlantic
fleet is not to be allowed to reach Porto
Rico, OF to approach the coast of the
United States. Rear Admiral Sampson
has perfected plans for meeting the
enemy on the high seas, and giving battle
1T IL time and place of his own choosing.
The successful issue of this battle ma y
depend in large measure upon the Span
ish admiral being kept in profound
ignorance of the intention Of the Ameri-
can commander, and being given the
least possible tine in which to escape
or to prepare for battle. Consequently,
the secretary of the navy and Rear Ad
miral Sampson have kept the details of
the plan of operations profound secret,
and as the time for the movement
against the Spanish ships draws closer,
censorship of kilograms from Key
West has been established. This makes
it impossible to obtain direct news of
the movement of the armored ships UNI
der the immediate command of Rear
Admiral Sampson.
All that Is definitely known here Is that
the four most powerful ships in Rear
Admiral Sampsun's communicative New
York, the Indiana, the Iowa and the
Furitan-were ready for "a prolonged sea
voyage yesterday afternoon. Their coal
hunkers were filled to their capacity,
and additional supplies of coal were
carried in bags on deck. Two GOLFERS

Cologne DrUnkartls.

Sweet smelling drunkards can be
found nowadays on the little island of
Pemba, near Zanzibar. The principal
settlement has suddenly been changed
from dirty, disreputable village into
n town fragrant with perfume. And
that radical change was brought about
solely by the prohibition of alcohol.
Since the natives-negroes and n
mixed population--had become victims
of alcohol to such an extent that there
were more drunken people to be seen
than sober ones, the British resident
prohibited the importation of alcoholic
beverages to stop the evil. But then
the native merchants began to import
"eau de cologne" in quantities, of
course not the real article, but liquor
of the worst kind, perfumed and
packed in cologne bottles. And now
the drunkards of Pemba get their
wonted fill of alcohol in this disguise
and the worse the drinker the better
he smells !'-Philadelphia Record.

eral Weyler Is dubbed the Spanish
Boulanger," and i'm some quarters mill
tsry dictatorship in his hands is re-
garded as probable. The wider opinion
is that he will not succeed any better

The continental press notices the
broadening political ambition of the
United States coupled with the in
oreaslng friendship between Great Brit
ain and the United States with ill-con-
cealed aversion. Intervention rumors
are again in the air. Ii Is absolutely
certain that Spain has taken no steps
in this direction nor is she likely to do

Atlantic. 1t is believed that there have
been exchanges of views between the
powers on the subject os the Philippines,
as to which all kinds of speculation are
ahoat None of the powers like the
idea Of the United States becoming d
near neighbor of Japan. and the fear of
further victories is likely to give Il
cohesion in which the powers hitherto
have been sadly lacking.

Philadelphia, May 5.-One of the crew
of the st. Paul, which is being fitted out
as an auxiliary for the United States
navy at Cramps shipyard, was detected
in trying to gain admission to the maya
zine room of the vessel shortly before
midnight Wednesday, and is now lying
in double irons, awaiting the action of
Captain Sigsbee.
He was first noticed acting suspicious
ly on one Of the coal bunkers. and a
guard was placed over him. When
searched, drawings of the vessel We're
found secreted about his clothes.
The name of the suspect is Howard
Hannah. He is about 30 years old. He
claimed that he was an Austrian and
came to this country in 1881. Hannah
also said that he was painter and had
given up his job to enlist on the ST. Paul.
At the examination Hannah strenuously
denied that his intentions had been hos
tile to the ship, but Il rough draft of the
interior of the vessel, showing the To-
cation of her magazines and engines,
was found in his possession. He has not
been placed in irons but a strict watch
Is maintained over him. He will be put
ashore at League island navy yard to be
dealt with as the government authori-
ties deem proper.
London, May 5.-According to dis

prevent, If need be, any Carlist agitation
while the war continues.
