4 FRAUD OR 4 JOK E.
An Alleged Appeal of the United States
 Published in Germany.

Berlin, June 2.--The Berlin press strongly criticises an alleged appeal published in the newspapers generally and purporting to emanate from the United States department of national coast defences' urging German vet erans residing in Germany or else where who have become citizens of the United States, either "to enlist in the service of the United States or else contribute to the war funds" Mr. Andrew D. White, United States am- bassador to Germany, to-day published statement setting forth that the ap- peal is either fraud or a joke, as no such department exists and no such ap- peal has been authorized by the United States government.

Report From Madrid That It Is Now at

 Porto Rico. Madrid, June 2 1.-The report that the been captured by an American auxil- iary cruiser is without foundation. It XIII is now landing her cargo of pro- visions at Porto Rico. The captain general of Porto Rico cables that the question of subsistence has raised no difficulty in the island, as several ves- sells have entered the ports with pro- visions. Senor Polo Bernabe, former- Spanish minister to the United States, has been appointed under secretary for the foreign office.

Dispatch From Washington by Henry

Dispatch From Washington by Henry
 Norman, Editor of the London Daily
 Chronicle, to His Paper-says Cervera's
 Squadron is Doomed and That These
 Facts Are Known to Every Well In-
 formed Person.
 Washington, June 2.-Henry Norman, editor of the London Daily Chronicle, tonight cabled his paper as follows: Porto Rico will be occupied while a combined land and sea attack will re- duce Santiago. Admiral Cervera's s fate is sealed with absolute certainty. Mar shal Blaneo will be left for another two months to steam in his own juice. The capture of Manila is mere matter of time. Under these circumstances 1t is incomprehensible that Spain does not make peace overtures. She must lose Cuba and Porto Rico, but it is within the bounds of possibility that she might ultimately regain the Philippines by a prompt equalization. I fancy that mo- body is more surprised at her inability than President Mckinley himself If she procrastinates much longer she may bid farewell to the Philippines also. The above is not a personal opin- ion, but facts we'll known to every well informed person here"
 It was plainly noticeable at the navy department to-day that the officials were expecting news of the first in- portance, but that they did not look for it immediately. The frmness with which they have insisted that Schley could have no general engagement with the Spanish forces ships and forts at Santiago appeared to be based on a full knowledge of the plan under which the commodore is acting. The greatest concession that they would make to- wards admitting that fight had taken place there Tuesday was to say that possibly Schley had detected some earthWorkS going up and had raZed them with his shells. They were confi- dent he had made no attempt to enter the harbor. It is believed, however, with Sampson in the field and in com mand off Santiago, with an augmented force, that interesting events may be looked for.
 These are expected, too, notwith standing the fact that no troops have yet started from Tampa, as was es- tablished by inquiry at the war depart ment this afternoon. The insurgents are known to be in force in the neigh borhood of Santiago, and through Cap- tain Dorst, the war department not only has been in communication with them but also has supplied them fully with good weapons and an abundance of ammunition. The headquarters of the best of the Cuban generals. Garcia, are distant from Santiago only seventy miles, so that it is possible Sampson feels strong enough with their support to begin the assault by sea upon the doomed Spanish fleet and forts without awaiting the arrival of the United States troops from Tampa. The trend of the news that came to Washington from unofficial circles during the after noon all went to support this belief so there is some ground for the expecta- ton of the officials that information may be had shortly,

EFFORTS TO SECURE PEACE
MORE LIKELY TO SUCCEED IN
 FRANCE THAN ELSEWHERE.
It is Understood That M. IIanatoux and Other Ministers Regard Present Situ- atiOn as IntOlerable-New Commercial French Intervention i'm Which Other Countries Might Join.

London, June 2.-With regard to the report of European intervention, the Vienna correspondent of both the Daily Chronicle and the Daily News deny that the Austrian government has received any fresh communication from Spain It would appear therefore that any efforts in this direction are only made fin France, where they are appar- ently the most likely to succeed.
 It is understood that M. Hanatoux and other ministers regard the pres- ent situation as intolerable. A pro- tracted war besides disturbing com- merce, would neoessitate postponing the coming exhibition. It is hoped that the new commercial agreement between France and the United States will smooth the way to French inter- vention, in which certainly Austria and perhaps England or other powers will join. Russia, it is asserted, would be willing to undertake the office of medi- ator to save France the necessity of becoming prominent.
 Count DeRascon, the Spanish ambas- sador in London, who has been inter- viewed on the subject, admitted that war meant ruin for Spain, and he said: The sentiment is growing in favor of seeking an honorable peace, which America, considering her unprepared- ness for a war of invasion would prob- ably also welcome in preference to a protracted struggle, involving heavy sacrifices of men and money. This be- ing so, hope basis of understand ing may be found leading to peace''
 The Vienna correspondent of the Daily Mail says: Spain has address ed another appeal to the powers to irl- tervene in the war and Austria is pre- pared to accede, but only in conjunc- ton with other powers
 Washington, June Eff the queen re- gent of Spain has instructed Senor Cas- tillo to ask the powers to intervene for peace that movement has not yet talk en any form in Washington, either at the state department or at any of the foreign embassies. Among diplomatic officials it is thought to be quite pos- sible that Spain is feeling her way to-  ward securing peace. but it is not be- lieved this will meet with any active assistance from the great powers. As one leading diplomatic official said to- day, Spain finds herself in the same condition of isolation that France was in in 1S70-71. At that time M. Thiers, afterward president, went from capital to capital seeking to secure the co-op- eration of Europe with France, but his mission was failure. The mission of Castillo is said to be like that of Thiers and the diplomatic officials believe it will meet with the same fate. It is known that Spain has counted most on arousing the active interest of France, but it has been unsuccessful. The French officials here have not heard of any negotiations for many weeks past, indicating that the authorities at Paris have not taken up the proposi- tions of Senor Castillo for intervention in behalf of peace.

LONDON IS STILL IN DOUBT
MYSTIFIED AS TO WHETHER CER-
 VERA IS AT SANTIAGO.

Presence There Taken as an Attempt tO
 Mislead tho Enemy-BeIief That He
 May Have Escapedin the Night.
 ! London, June 3.-Yesterdays news and that which comes this morning has brought no fresh feature into the sitn- ation except increasing mystification as to whether Admiral Cervera is real ly at Santiago de Cuba. The Madrid correspondents of the morning papers make the point that the persistence with which Senor Sagasta and Captain Aunon, the minister of marine. assert Cervera's presence there is a mere att tempt to mislead the enemy. On the other hand it is argued that Admiral Cervera could not be in a safer place, and that if Admiral Camara could suc- oeed in entering another West Indian harbor and thus employ two American squadrons in the work of blockading Spain's policy of delay would be assist VI ->NS IVA IAAO A1CE,eSlAfC Ct10CIlCSa alll6t6 sA Admiral Cervera has not been seen elsewhere London opinion leans to the theory that he escaped from Santiago harhor either before Sunday or possi- ply under cover of the torpedo manoeu- vres Sunday night. In any case 1t iss held that Admiral Sampson will soon take steps to solve the mystery finally far Cantio iS oav c1
 The Standard says: Tt is rumored that Captain Aunon, minister of ma rine, has received a dispatch concern- ing the state of Admiral Cervera's ships, which has not been comnuni- cated to the press. General Correa. minister of war, said: There is no doubt whatever that Admiral Cerve- ra's squadron is at Santiago. All though 1t is not officially known, there is no doubt that Admiral Cervera was on the Cristobal Colon, as reported in private dispatches. The dispatch from General Blanco contained only news al-@ X ready published. Had the attack been renewed General Blanco would doubt- less have reported the same.' r
 At to-day s (Thursday) cabinet coua- ciI the queen regent presiding, Duke Almodovar De Rio, the foreign 1ninis- ter, reported that all the cables wereS working in the Antilles. A dispatch was read asserting that Admiral Cert vera was still at Santiago. Senor Sa. gasta denied the story of night atz tempt by the torpedo boats against the American feet"
