schley. however, were making q deter.
mined effort to find the Spanish fleet,
and it is quite probable that, after failing
to find it ut Santiago, either Sampson or
Schley came up with the Spanish
feet on the high seas or in the Wind
ward Passage somewhere in the vicinity
OF Haiti.
The fact OF the Spanish fleet not being
at Santiago, II the report to this effect
was true, would give no assurance that
Sampson and Schley had not met the
fleet soon after reporting to the Depart
ment their failure to find it. While the
despatch received at the State Depart
ment at 1l.W had not yet been made
public at noon and its contents therefore
could be judged Of only by the excite
ment and interest it aroused, the belief
is that it confirms the London dispatches
received short time before through
newspaper sources announcing positively
that battle had occurred and which
the Depart ment at first denied.
Later on, however, the Navy Depart
ment again denied the receipt OF news of
a naval engagement 1t is asserted that
the despatch received at ll.3O related to
another matter, but its contents are not

fleet had been located. Even this is not

New YoRK, May PA special from
Manila, via Shanghai, says:
Admiral Dewey has been threatened
by the German Consul here, who, after
an interview with General Augusti, com.
mander of the Spanish army in the
Philippines. tried to land provisions
from a German ship. Dewey declined tc
permit it.
The German Consul thereupon de-
clared that he would force the landing
with the aid OF two German cruisers.
Dewey declared he would fire upon the
cruisers if they attempted to carry out
the Consuls threat. The provisions
have not yet been landed.
Dewey is anXiously awaiting the
arrival OF troops from the United States.
We are in possession OF Cavite and the
arsenal, bnt have made no attempt to
land at the town of Manila. The foreign
consuls have held frequent consultations
with Admiral Dewey respecting the
safety of the .combatants and pri.
vate property in Manila.

LONDON, May 24.-Lord Wolseley, the

day, said:
''The United States would make mis-
take in attempting to invade Cuba with

Special Dispatch to THE sun,

a great sea battle ought to be received in

avoid battle.
Surprise is expressed that he selected
Santiago de C.ba as port OF entry, as ii
is surrounded by insurgents, who con-
troll the province.
1t was expected he would choose Glen
fuegos, which has direct railroad connec'
ton with Havana, but it is too late now
for him to attempt to reach the latter
port, as the Spaniards would be running
into the very mouth of some of ou'
largest guns. .,,

United States Marshal Short and
Deputy United States Marshal Clark
returned from Trenton, N. j., late last
night after having turned Col. Ezekiel 7.
Cooper. over the to warden Of the State
prison at that place.
| When they reached the penitentiary
the warden asked for the prisoner.
"Here am" replied Cooper, "they put
me in for robbing the First National
Bank Of Dover, OF $4,000"
Only once did Cooper show signs of
breaking down on his journey to Tren-
ton and that was when he opened and
read letter from the author of his be-
ing, his mother, whom he had even been
unable to bid goodbye.
Strong nerved as he is he almost wept,
but recovering himself he handed the
letter to the Marshal to keep for him
and also gave him a number of news
paper clippings to forward to the paper
of which he is the editor, the Milford
Herald.
At the New Jersey State prison he
surrendered his jewelry and about $40 in
money and on Monday night slept in
neatly furnished room.
Yesterday when he arose his hair was
cropped close, and after he had been
cleanly shayen he donned tile prison
garb and from then until the expiration
of his sentence will be called by num-
Der instead of his name.
Already Cooper's friends are talking of
asking for pardon, but no definite steps
have as yet been taken in the matter, as
the step is considered inexpedient at this
time.
When the United States District Cour5
convened yesterday morning the general
jury was present.
District Attorney Vandegrifc stated
that the only other Indictment found by
the grand jury was in tie cas-. against
Thomas S. Clark, which has tesn COIL
tinued until the June term. He said that
the grand jury will meet on June lst,
but he did not know what it would do,
and therefore he would not ask that the
general jury be discharged from further
attendance.
He requested Judge Bradford t, dis
charge the general jury until Wednes-
day morning, June Sth at ll.3O o'clock,
and instruct Clerk Smith, if it is ascer-
tanned meanwhile that the general jurors
will not be needed, to notify them by
postal card. The request was granted.
After proving their attendance, and Civ

jurors departed.

retention of the Philippine Islands as the
vital point in the campaign. 1t is sale
that the most active and urgent efforts
of the Government will be directed from
now on towards rendering permanent
the possession Of the Philippines, and
that the Administration regards this as
the most important move in the war.

sion. The overthrow Of Spanish power
in the West Indies is fully assured, and
it is believed to be the design OF Spain tC
attempt negotiations with foreign Powers
looking to a termination of the war after
a decisive naval engagement and the con.
quest OF Cuba on the basis OF no further
loss to Spain than that of tie island OF
Cuba.
1t is further believed that Spain is en-.
deavoring to transfer important interests
in the Philippines in way to bring for.
eign influence to bear for the purpose o1
restraining the operations of this Govern
ment. Altogether, the Philippines are
nov regarded as the key othe situation,
theirpossession involving great interests
and possibly most important events in
the future. 1t is said that there is no,
the least doubt or hesitation on the part
of the Administration with respect tc
the policy to be pursued, and that pos
session is to be taken Of the entire groul
of islands and to be held.
