The order provides that whenever
any ship applies for permission to clear
from an American port for any point in
the West Indies, Bermuda, Mexico or
Central .Amerioa, the request before be-
ing granted by the Collector shall be for
warded to the Secretary of the Treasury
This step was taken as the result OF
statements through Spanish sources that
the Spaniards in Cuba had been receiv-
ing supplies from vessels coming from
American ports, thereby strengthening
General Blanco and defeating the pur-
poses of the blockade.
The Treasury Department, working
through its secret service, has imposed a
strict espionage upon the movements of
all vessels, and this information, which
is kept at the Treasury Department, will
go long way toward determining
whether clearance papers shall be issued
to vessels applying in future. .
J his Government believes the Span
iards in Cuba have been receiving some
supplies from the United States from
vessels leaving our ports and landing at
obscure points on the southern coast of
Cuba not in the blockade line, from
which the supplies have been transmit
ted overland to Blanco. Every effort
will be made to break up the practice.

FrenZied Italians Work

Joseph Salaro. 40 years old, residing in
this city, was arrested in Philadelphia on
Friday night, tile charge of attempting to
shoot Alphonso Cardia.i, residing on
Carpenter street, below Seventh, that
city.
Cardiasi, it is said, was last week &C.
quilted in Wilmington of assauIting
Salaro's little boy, and it appears that
Sa!aro went to the city for revenge.
When he entered Cardiasi's home he
pulled out revolver and fired 4 shot at
his intended victim.
Cardiasi greatly frightened, ran out of
the house, and took refuge in DR.. War
ner''s drug store, at the corner of Sew
enth and Carpenter streets, where his
assailant followed him, recklessly firing
his revolver, almost delnolishing num-
Der Of phials.
One of the bullets passed through the
coat of Edward Warner, the doctors
brother.
When Policeman Moon, of the Second
and Christian streets station, arrived OH
the scene to arrest Salaro, the enraged
man rushed out of the drug store and
ran into y saloon on Carpenter street,
above Eighth, where he was finally can
tUrd after making a desperate struggle.

( 1t is argued that his coming to Ameri-
can waters could not be for the purpose
Of doing nothing but cruising, and that
ii he has to risk an engagement he can
gain nothing by delay unless reinforce.
ments are to be expected. If he were
not to be reinforced and he should be
! compelled to place reliance upon the
vessels he now has with him the longer
he delayed action the weaker and less
effective his force would become.
He is consuming coal, and the bottoms
OF his vessels are fouling, while the
American fleet which he has to meet is
being augmented in strength and inn
proved in condition.
At the same time the condition of
Banco in Havana is not improving, and
after the Spanish army has been reduced
to the verge OF starvation it cannot be
as strong to cooperate with Admiral
Cervcra's fleet as 1t would be at this
time.
From all this it is argued that the
Spanish Admiral would not indulge in
his debilitating delay except in the ex.
pectation Of having his fleet strengthened
by the addition of vessels which have
left Cadiz 1t is perfectly plain that he
is doing everything in his power to avoid
an engagement.

SUIT FOR DAMAGES,
Case of Henry G.. Webb VS., Mayor
and City Council Being Heard
Before Referees.

The Levy Court room was the scene
OF much levity yesterday afternoon
when Henry c. Webb took the stand in
his suit against the Mayor and Council
OF this city, for alleged damages done to
his properties on West Front street Le-
tween Washington and jefferson streets
Mr.. England, who is the plaintiff S
attorney, began applying his questions
and Mr.. Webb apparently somewhat
embarrassed, seemed dumbfounced and
began answering at random, when Will
lard salisbury, Jr., attorney for defense
made frequent objection.
Mr. webb finally pulling himself to-
gether told his tory, II returned hone

bors, just as Mr.. Salisbury was about
to object he said "Oh, excuse me YOU
won't let me tell that, will you?" (Laugh-
ter. The amount of damages asked
for BY the plaintiff has not been made
public. The complainant occupied the
entire afternoon and none of the defence
witnesses were heard and the trial
ended until Monday morning.
The referees are Joseph L. Carpenter,
Sr., Joseph L. Carpenter, Jr., and A. L.

Santiago Yarn Doubted.
Special Dispatch to THE Sun.

Special Dispatch to THESrN.
WASHINGTON, May 2l.-In the absence
OF any official information at the NAVY
Department today in regard to the exact
whereabouts of the Spanish fleet, there
are numerous rumors and suggestions re-
latlng to the announcement from Mad
rid that Admiral Cervera's fleet has left
Santiago.
1t is looked upon by naval officers to
mean that the fleet was never really in
the harbor of Santiago, but was lying
outside the port, and that dispatch
boat or one OF tie torpedo vessels had
been sent inside with dispatches and
officers to learn the situation.
This is accepted as an EXPLANATION Of
the dispatch this n.orning from Madrid.
The Navy Department officials are still
OF the opinion that Cervera is merely
trying to kill time and mislead the
Americans by his movements, and that
he really does not intend to stay at
Santiago, but to move either to Cienfue-
gos Or Havana.
The Spanish Admiral does not intend
to be bottled up in Santiago harbor, and
If ne gets wind of the Americans fleets
coming in upon him from the north and
west he will move south into the open
sea and mannuvre around some hundred
miles east of the fleet and make dash
towards the Atlantic coast.
lie might pass entirely around
Jamaica, or even go through the Mona
Passage, stopping at Porto Rico for coal,
and then turn west again, under the
cover OF the Bahamas. 1t is accepted as
certain that Cervera does not intend to
give battle just at this time, and that he
is going to play hide-and.scck just as
long as he possibly can.
