scHLEY WILL JOIN SAMPSON.
Flying Squadron Puts to Sen Under
Sealed Orders,

SeaSed orders.
Newport News, Va, May 15.-Five
vessels of the flying squadron, led by
the flagship Brooklyn. steamed out OF
Hampton Roads yesterday afternoon,
and after passing the Virginia cape,
took southerly course, going, it is
said to Augment Admiral SIMPSONS
fleet now in the vicinity of Puerto
Rico. The order directing the squad
ron to put to sea came at midnight.
A few minutes later the signal ''be
ready to put to sea at daybreak" was
flashed from the flagship. Back from
the men-of-war came the answer. In
a jiffy the men were summoned to the
decks and the work of making the
ship ready to sail commenced. Sup
pressed excitement, mingled with de-
light, prevailed. The little steam
launches were hoisted aboard and
decks cleared. Then the men waited
for the signal to weigh anchor Day
broke. but the signal was not hoisted.
The day wore on toward noon, and
until the sailing flag was seen small
craft ran to and fro carrying dis
patches. Excitement gave way to i'm
patience. for the men had been lying
off Old Point for the last six weeks
waiting for orders to 90 to sea. and
they were afraid they were to be dis
appointed. But not so. At o'clock a
signal ordering the Battleships Massa-
chusetts. the Texas, the dispatch boat
Scorpion and collier Sterling to weigh
anchor was run up to the top of the
Brooklyn's military mast. Thirty min
ships and they were blowing the sea
at rate Of fifteen knots.
Will join Sampson.
The feet will join Admiral Samp-
sons squadron. This statement came
from reliable source. The cruisers
Minneapolis and New Orleans were
left behind. as was also the auxiliary
cruiser st. Paul. which is still anch-
ored in the harbor here taking on a
supply of ammunition. At s o'clock
last night the Minneapolis hauled up
her anchors and steamed out at full
speed to overtake the squadron. 1t
had been reported that the st. Paul,
Capt. Sigsbee commanding, and the
New Orleans would leave before day
break to-day. but late last night Capt.
Sigsbee received orders to proceed at
midnight. She joined the New Or
leans at Old Point Comfort, and both
vessels then put to sea. They are ex-
pected to overtake Commodore Schley
some time to-day or early tomorrow.
The fact that the Sterling, laden with
1000 tons Of coal, accompanied the
fleet indicates that long sail is con-
templated. The arrival of the flying
squadron will greatly strengthen Ad-
miral SIMPSONS feet. There is anoth-
er report in circulation here that a
fiotilla of Spanish torpedo boats has
been sighted cruising along the At
lantic coast and that the flying squad
ron has been ordered to intercept the
fleet and sink the boats, but an officer
from the st. Paul says no credence
should be placed in the runlor. Com
modore Schley left under sealed or
ders.

The first steamship constructed for
use in war was the Fulton, designed by
Robert Fulton for the United States
navy; and her destruction by the ex-
p;osion of her magazine is brought to
mind by the Maine disaster. The de-
sign included an engine to throw hot
water over an enemy's deck and into
the portfolios. The scheme was never
brought into practical use. Accounts
OF the vessel crossed the ocean and
grew on the way. One description, pub
lished in Scotland, said that the Full
ton, "by mechanism, brandishes three
hundred cutlasses with the utmost reg
ularity over her gunwales; works also
an equal number Of heavy iron spikes
Of great length, darting them from her
sides with prodigious force, and with
drawing them every quarter Of min
Ute" All that was pure invention, Of
course; but it was not more incredible
than would have been q truthful de-
scription Of the devices for killing with
which modern war-ships are equipped.
The proposed plan Of the Cornell
University, that school children Of the
North open correspondence with pupils
Of the south. has many points to
commend It. BOT only would the young
people receive from such intercourse

THE
K AN SHS CITY
TIMES.

Uncle Sans new colonies will prove
a source of great interest to the Amer
lean people generally, and particu-
larry with the Residents of the great
southwest-the chosen field of the
Kansas City Times. The war has
impressed on nearly every reader the
necessity OF having live metropoli-
tan newspaper.
The second invasion OF the. Philip
pines, Porto Rico and Cuba by the
commercial forces OF the United: States
will be attended by many interesting
events. Yankee enterprise with its
complement of improved machinery
and wide-awake business methods
will effect as startling a revolution as
achieved by Yankee sailors and SOL
diers in the recent campaign.
The progress of this peaceful army
OF business men will be chrOnicled in
the columns of the Kansas City Times.
In addition, there will be CONGRESS-
ional elections in all the states of the
union this fall.
AS an indication OF the prevailing
sentiment of the country, this contest
will be fraught with an unusual inter-
est, and in order to keep up with the
moves of the political chess board,
western readers should keep in touch
with events daily TRANSPORTING. By
means of fast mail trains, the Times
is distributed over the greater por-
ton of Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska,
Oklah oma, Arkansas and Indian Ter
ritory.

CARMELA DE GRAZIA DECLARED
a. A LAWFUL WIFE
AND THE DIVORCE SUIT GOES
The Husband Who Didn't Know It
Must Now Disprove His Cruelty
or Stand Consequences

trial containing some features of in
terest WAS commenced yesterday before
Judge Allen. 1t is the divorce suit insti-
tuted by Carmela de Grazia, formerly
Acosta, against Louis de Grazia, because
Of his extreme cruelty to her after ten
years of married life, and the defendant
contests the action upon the ground that ne
has never married Carmela, that their re-
lations for several years. which are not
denied, were merely meretricious and that
he after casting the present plaintiff aside
had married in Italy, during visit to his
native land that took place in 1897.
1t was the desire of the defense to have
the case tried with closed doors, but the
plaintiff, represented by Maj. Horace Bell,
objected to this course and the court ruled
against Attorney Gould's motion.
Counsel for the plaintiff having gained
his point lost no time in plunging into his
side of the case and placed DR.. Reed, who
had attended the lady during an illness, at
the request of De Grazia, Mrs. Louise Pier

IDENTIFIED THE BODY
Of Otto Reinke Who Died Here Las
Wednesday

The body of the young man who was
found dead in the rear of the Elkhorn sa-
loon at 301 East First street last Wednes-
day morning was identified yesterday as
that of Otto G. Reinke of Riverside. His
father, accompanied by City Marshal Will
son of that place, visited the morgue in the
morning and identified the young man as
his son. The remains were sent to River
side to be inferred there.
1t appears that Reinke, Jack Meyer and
Frank Wright came to this city last Sur
day to spend the Fourth of July. They
met Marsh Moran and Manuel Dial ANA
went around town until Tuesday, when
Meyer and Wright got separated from their
companions. In the afternoon they started
home and stopped in the Elkhorn saloon
and there discovered Reinke sitting in a
chair in a stupor. They tried to wake hrn
but failed and had to leave in order to catch
their train. They handed the young man S
ticket to the barkeeper for safe-keeping.
Finding himself out of money, Renke
probably went to the rear of the saloon
and covered himself up with some gunny
sacks and went to sleep. The inquest de-
veloped the fact that Reinke had died from
acute Inflammation of the kidneys.
