designation of the Secretary Now in
the Presidents Hands-Day HB
Successor.
WASHINGTON, April 26.-Another
resignation from the cabinet occurred
when the venerable secretary Of state,
Mr.. John Sherman, handed his resig.
nation to the president at a special
meeting Of the cabinet, called together
at 10 o'clock. This resignation takes
effect at the presidents convenience
and with it Mr.. Sher man re.
tires from public life, after a ser.
vice Of over 10 years, embracing the
house Of representatives, the United
States senate, the secretary ship of the
treasury, and the secretaryship of state.
The reason tor the resignation is the
condition Of the secretary's health.
which is now impaired as the result
of years of devotion to the public serv-
ice and the arduous labors of a lifetime
added to age, the venerable secretary
now being within a few days of IS
years of age.
The secretary's resignation was ten.
dered in a simple note, rendering to
the president the portfolio entrusted to
him upon the Inauguration OF Presi.
dent Mckinley, and asking that it take
effect from the close Of the day.
The secretary was seen by a reporter
before he went to the cabinet meeting
and declined to make any statement,
beyond saying that he was carrying
with him his resignation, and that he
might have something to say later in
the day.
Day Will Likely Be Named.
While no definite announcement can
be made at this time as to who will
succeed Mr.. Sherman, it is altogether
probable that the next secretary of
state will be Mr.. William 4. Day, at
present first assistant secretary of state.
Mr.. Day has been urged to take the
office by the president, but is person.
ally more inclined to return to Canton
to the practice Of law there, though it
is believed here he will yield to the
presidents wishes in the matter. Mr..
Day himself is out of the city, and is
thought to be in Canton, O., arranging
his personal affairs. He has had entire
charge of tho Cuban affairs almost
since the beginning Of the present ad.
ministration.

SOME RICH PRIZES.
Nine Spanish Vessels Captured by United
States ships
New YORK, April 26.-Since the war
with Spain began, the United States
naval forces have established q strict
blockade of Cuban ports, and have cap.
tured nine Spanish vessels. The prizes
are the steamers Buena Ventura, Pedro,
Miguel Jover, Catalina aud Saturnina
and the schooners Mathilde, Candida
and Antonio. All these vessels have
been or will be taken to Key West, ex.
cept the Saturnina, which was seized
at Ship Island, Miss. The Spanish
steamers Panama, from New York, and
Alfonso MI from Spain, both bound
for Cuba, are likely to be captuled BY
American warships within a few days.
Spain has made no seizure Of Africa.
vessels, as far as known.
Since the beginning Of the war, tho
only movement Of the Spanish navy
that has been reported is the departure
OF the torpedo beat destroyer Ludaz
from Queenstown for Spain, her de.
parture being compelled by the English
neutral proclamation. For the same
reason the United States Asiatic squad.
ron has begun to leave Hong Kong.
The North Atlantic squadron is enforc.
ing the blockade of Cuba, and the fly.
ing squadron remains in Hampton
Roads, except the Minneapolis and
Columbia, which have gone to sea, on
a mission known only to naval authori.
ties. The cruisers San Francisco and
New Orleans are at the Brooklyn navy
yard and may sail at any time to join
the flying squadron. Every day adds
several vessels to the auxiliary feet.
The battleship Oregon and the gun.
boat Marietta are coming up along the
east coast Of South America, and will
probably touch at Rio Janeiro in q few
days. The dynamite cruiser Nichthe.
roy, just purchased from Brazil, is still
at Rio Janeiro. The newly purchased
cruiser Topeka is at sea on the way
from Portsmouth to New York, and
the torpedo boat Somers is still at
Portsmouth, but ready for sea. The
teamer Paris, for whose safety no
alarm is now felt. will arrive in New
York before the middle OF the week.
