CARLIST UPRISING.
The Pretender Getting Ready to Cross
the Frontier.

The Pretender Getting Ready to Cross
the Frontier.
New York, April 19.-The reality of
the Carlist movement is, says the Lon
don correspondent of the World, now
too potent to be any longer ignored.
Don Carlos is reported by some of his
English mpathiZers-among whom is
the Earl of Ashburnham, an ultra
montana peer, and a leading figure
to have left Venice and to be now wait
ing at a convenient place to cross the
Spanish frontier at the proper moment
and place himself at the head of his
followers, as in former Carlist insur-
rectionS.
1t is expected that a considerable
body of Catholic young men, including
some officers serving in the British
army, will volunteer for service with
the Carlists. although they will have TO
proceed very circumspectly in order to
etade being made amenable to the for
eign enlistment act, under winch
jameson was convicted.
But it is an undoubted fact that Don
Carlos has lost large part of the
Sympathizers and support formerly
given him by the old English Catholics,
owing to his selfish, miserly conduct.
Since he inherited the large fortune of
the late Count of Chambord, he has
treated men who have made great sac
rifices with absolute Indifference, and
has starved the Carlist organ in Spain
so that it has been kept alive only by
the enthusiasm of fanatical supporters.
The local Carlists are convinced that
the present Spanish dynasty is doomed,
and that Spain will be forced to
choose between republicanism and Don
Carlos. They add that the only chance
of the present dynasty is a successful
war against the United States, the pos
sibility of which is secuted.

MILES WILL GO TO CUBA.
Already Selected Some Members Of
His Field Staff.

Chicago, April ia special to the
Tribune from Washington says:
General Miles will go 10 Cuba. He has

He has selected some of the members OF

There has been some gossip here in re-
gard to the statutory prohibition of thu
departure of General Miles on duty in
Cuba. There never has been a law
against the major general commanding
leaving the country in command of United
States troops. An officer said today:
General Miles could go to China if he
wanted. or rather, if ordered there

PREPARING FOR DEPARTURE.
Probability That Polo Will Be Off
For Spain Tomorrow.

Washington, April 19.-The Spanish
minister, Senior Polo Y Bernabe, has
made his final preparations for depart
ure, and is calmly awaiting notification
that the president has affixed his sig
nature to the Cuban resolutions, at
which time the minister will take his
leave. He had expected this would
come today, and every arrangement
had been made with that in view. Now,
that the signing is deferred until to-
morrow, it is probable that the minis
ter and his staff will not depart before
another "a hours pass by. Before leav-
ing, he will transfer the legation ar
chives and effects to the French en-
bassy.
Whether the state department will
send Senior Polo his passports, or he
will ask for them, is felt to be an i'm
material detail. He intends to go with
out reference to these formalities, and
there is every reason to believe that
the state department will afford him
the protection of passports and any
other attentions usual in the enforced
departure of a minister on the break
ing out of war. The entire staff of the
legation will accompany the minister.
Their exact movements after leaving
Washington are not made known, ex-

New Steps By the Powers.

London, April 2O.-The Rome cores
pendent of the Daily Mail says: Italia,
the organ of the foreign office, publish
ed tonight the following
- The powers are on the eve of TAX
ing a new step. namely, requesting the
United States and Spain. in the event
OF war, to localize the hostilities to Gu
ba and the neighboring waters This
step will be taken Immediately after a
declaration of war. Utter pessimism
prevails in diplomatic quarters here,
the vatican alone continuing hopeful
of peace. The pope is working ener-
geticalIy to be accepted as arbitrator;
but he admits that Cuba has already
morally ceased to belong to Spain.

TEST OF BRITISH SYMPATHY.
Applications Made In London to En-
list In Uncle Sans Service.

London, April 19.-There have been
many applications at the United States
embassy and at the United States con-
sulate here this week for enlistment
in the United States army or navy.
Most of the applicants were English
men, including several officers and for
rner officer of the British army of lieu
tenant grade A number of engineers
also applied and applications were re-
ceived from women who are DESTROYS
of serving as nurses in the field.
majority of these who applied for
enlistment expect to be sent to the
United States at the governments ex-
pense. They were all told that the
United States officials here had no au-
thority to enlist.
Lieutenant Sims, the United States
naval attache at Paris. and Colonel
Alfred E. Bates, the United States mill
tary attache here, have purchased dur
ing the week several large lots of am
n1unition. including guncotton. The
latter, il is presumed, is to be used for
mines. All the officials concerned
maintain secrecy as to the ships which
are to carry the war munitions to the
United States.

Work of War Is Now Reduced to Per
fecting Details.

Washington, April 19.-The prepara-
tions for action are about completed,
and the work is now reduced to perfect
ing details. The army is being mobil-
lied, and all that remains is to insure
the prompt supply of all classes of
equipments. AS was stated at the navy
department today, the market has been
cleaned of all valuable vessels, and it
now comes to manning them and per-
fecting methods of communication and
cooperation. The O'Higgins was the
last desirable ship of any size in sight.
and it has been announced that all
hope of getting her has been aban-
doned. General Greeley, in charge of
telegraph and telephone communication
between seacoast fOrtifications, an
nOunceS his work is in a gratifying
state of forwardness. Superintendent
Kimball of the life saving service has
conferred with Assistant Secretary
Roosevelt on employing the men in that
service for a regularly organized sys-
tenn of reporting war vessels in sight
at points remote from ordinary ports
of entry. Such a system will be a
valuable adjunct to the regular obser-
walton service.
A novel departure in naval practice
is the formation of a marine battalion
which Will accompany the North At
lantic squadron and be used in land
ing operations. The quartermaster
generals department of the army is
rushing work on tents and tent equip
page. Ordinarily, Philadelphia gets
these contracts, but recently the war
department has contracted for making
them at st. Louis, New York and Chi
cagO also.
Quite a consignment of tents have
been allotted to the militia of the states
under the act of congress.
The war department will need about
200 men as packers for the mule teams
now being collected by Captain Cruz
at Jefferson barracks.
General Wilson, chief Of engineers,
has furnished to the secretary of war
a list of engineer officers who, with
few exceptions, are available for the
army in the field. 1t is most compre-
hensive and includes the names Of
nearly every officer of the engineer
department throughout the United
States. In order to take care of the
important river and harbor and other
officers. it probably will be necessary
in particular cases. where the works
cannot be entirely neglected. to double.
treble or Quadruple some of the duties
of the officers, in order that the SER
vices of others may be available in the
military field of operations. In a ma
jority of cases the names are given
with the general idea that the Off
Gals will not be called away from their
present duties for more than a few
months. In the event of hostilitieS, the
engineer office of the war department
will promptly take steps to form a
corps of officers especially detailed to

SPANS NAVAL PROGRAMME
CAPE VERDE SQUADRON MAY
ATTACK OUR PORTS.
A Second Squadron Forming at Cadiz
Fitting Out a Large Auxiliary
Fleet-Active Preparations.

London, April 2O.-The Madrid CORE
spondent of the Standard says: At the
present moment Spain, though essentially
a military nation, is bestowing her chief
attention upon naval preparations, be-
cause everybody fully comprehends that
in the struggle with the United States,
the fate of Cuba and the duration of the
war will entirely depend on the reSpec-
tive navies. The Spanish minister of
marine, Admiral Bermejo, has done his
best to furnish naval preparations within
the means at his disposal. He has been
well assisted by the officials of his de-
partment. The first available squadron is
now at Cape Verde, under Admiral
Infanta Maria Teresa and CriStobal
Colon. and has been Joined there by the
cruisers ViZcaya and Almirante Oquendo,
with view to protecting the torpedo
fiotilla. This squadron is considered quite
a match for the flying squadron of
America and may be ordered to pay an
unpleasant visit to North American ports
if war breaks out
A second squadron will be formed at
CadiZ where Admiral Churruca is busy
preparing the feet. The idea is TO con-
centrate. as soon as they are ready, the
battleships Pelayo, now at Carthagena;
EmDerador Carlos V, now at Ferrol,
Cardinal Cisneros and the Numancia and
Victoria broadside ships; the cruisers
Alfonso XIII and the Princess Mercedes,
the torpedo cruiser Maria Molina, three
destroyers just received from England
and three torpedo vessels.
Spain has in her merchant fleet and
coasting population a large supply of
able seamen. all having served in the
royal navy and a strong force of marines,
among them three fine battalionS just re-
turned from service in the Philippines.
Admiral Bermejo has paid special atten-
ton to making use of the fine large
steamers offered by the Compania Trans
Atlantica mail line and other firms as
auxiliary cruisers. with crews and Of
ficers from the royal navy and heavy and
quick firing guns which have already
been placed on the IA vessels. Great
enthusiasm prevails in the arsenals and
among the seafaring population. Spain
will do exactly what America does. The
government would much prefer to make
use of the auxiliary cruisers commits
stoned as regular war vessels.

A BATTLESHIP WYOMING.
Warren Wants His State Represented

Washington, April Ex-senator Warren
called on the secretary of the navy this
afternoon and urged that one of the new
battleships be named the Wyoming. The
senator argued that the splendid achieve
ments of the first Wyoming entitled it to
a successor of the same name, and that
there could be no better designation for
a battleship. In addressing the secre-
ship of the old Kearsarge and deserved

of this name for one of the new American
mammoths of the sea.
