FLOAT THERE FOREVER
Elkins Says Our Flag Should be
Kept on Territorial Ac-
Quisitions.

Chicago, ILL.,, May 2S.-A special to the
Tribune from Washington, D. c., says:
Senator Stephen B. Elkins says the Mon
roe doctrine is to be abandoned. He says:
We have travelled 100 years in the last
four weeks. Our whole colonial policy is
about to undergo radical change. The
Monroe doctrine, which was all right
when it was written, but is no longer is
about to be smashed to smithereens and
the government of the United States is
slowly but surely breaking away from its
old mornings.
This war with Spain will necessitate
a change in our colonial policy. If there
is any one thing that am certain of, it
is this. The fortunes of war have given
us territory in the seas which we would.
never have thought of acquiring, but since
we have acquired it, the stars and stripes
must float there forever.
The Philippines alone will not compen-
safe or reimburse us. We must have
more territory. Porto Rico will doubtless
be under control of the United States gov
eminent before the end of fortnight
We should not halt there. Let us acquire
a coaling station in the Mediterranean sea-
Hawaii should be ours before the setting
of another sun, and if thought I could
assist in the acquisition of that territory
would be willing to remain in session all
summer"

MANILA IN HARD LINES
With Dewey Watching Harbor and
Insurgents on Land Side the
Town is in Fix.

New York, May 2S.-A dispatch to the
World from Manila by way of Hong
Kong says: The situation of the be-
sieged inha bitants of Manila is growing
more and more desperatss owing to the,
shutting off of the supplies Of food. The
blockade of the harbor by Admiral Dew
ey's squadron is complete. while the in
surgents have surrounded the city on the
land side, thus effectuaily closing the
place in.
Admiral Dewey has deferred further
aggressive action at this point until the
arrival of the United States cruiser
Charleston with coal and ammunition
and of the promised troops for the mill
tary occupation Of the islands.
The Spaniards in Manila have heard a
report that squadron of eight Spanish
warships is coming here to attack the
American fleet.
They have been told also that the
smallpox is epidemic on the United
States vessels, that 300 of tho officers
and men are down with the disease and
that there have been fourteen deaths al
ready.
The story about the smallpox is abso-
lutely without foundation. Everybo in
the squadron is in excellent health, the
weather is not severely hot and no sick
ness is apprehended

POLICY OF RESIGNATION
Senior Castelar's Advice to the Ma.

Honor.

Madrid, May 29.-9a m.-Senor Caste
lar, the Republican leader, in an inter
view on the subject of the alliances, is
quoted as declaring that he favors Spain's
isolation. He recommends "a policy of
resignation now and the greatest pru-
dence. economy and energy in the fut-
ure"
In conclusion, Senior CASTELAR, re-
marked: "After all, the Yankees may
blockade our islands, but they cannot
blockade our HONOR
1t is officially announced that the Span
ish reserve squadron, commanded by Ad-
miral Camara has left Cadiz. Before
going to its destination, the squadron will
maneuver probably for several days IN
the open sea afterwards Immediately sail

The squadron is understood to be COM
posed of ten to twelve vessels.

Educated, by JOye :"

AT a leading New England college,
some years ago. when the commencement
exercises were over and the diplomas had
been distributed, says D. s. Sanford in the.
Atlantic. a member of the gradual
ing class. who had been more distin-
guished by c"nviviality than studiousness-
and who had barely escaped losing his
degree. appeared upon the campus. and
waving the much-prized parchment over
his head. shouted gleefully. "Educated
by Joye. Educated" The idea expressed
by the rollickinS student. more in jest
than in earnest, illustrates Il notion of ed
ucation which dies hard. The popular
prejudice that culture is something ex-
tracted from books. picked up in lee
ture hall or 4 laboratory. or seized during
the feetin= years of ones school or col
lege life. is so prevalent that it becomes
the obvious duty of the school to press
home to the consciousness of every person
the conviction that an obligation rests up
on him to undertake a course of education
lasting throughout his life.

search was made and it was found
that there was man on board, whose
name is not given, who had gone on the
ship surreptitiously. His name was not
on the ships papers.
'"The Spanish authorities declared that
his object was to go into the town and
carry back information to the blockading
fleet and that his presence was breech
of the neutrality laws.
'The ship was thereupon seized and
Capt. Walker and his officers were put
in confinement. The British consul has
made a protest and the English authori-
ties here are moving in the matter. It
is believed the person on board was the
agent of newspaper correspondent as
the Spanish consul had absolutely re-
fused to permit the ship to leave if any
reporter was allowed to CO."

rs IN HOT PURSUIT.
United States Gunboat Bancroft
Chasing Three-Masted
Steamer,

Key West, F!a, May 27.-7:15 a. M
A Spanish steamship, thought to be an
auxiliary cruiser, was sighted by the
United States warships Wilmington and
Bancroft, fifteen miles off Key West last
night and at last accounts she was being
chased by the Bancroft.
The ship chased by the Bancroft was
three-masted steamer and apparently a
merchantmen of large tonnage. She had
one smokestack. No doubt was enter
tanned of her being Spaniard, because,
when the Bancroft put after her she
steamed away at full speed.
The Wilmington was coming in here
for coal at about $50 last evening and
when between twelve and fifteen miles
off Key West she saw the smoke of a
steamer and turned in this direction
About the same time the Bancroft came
along and asked the Wilmington if she
had seen anything of a three-masted
steamer, which had chased the auxiliary
gunboat Eagle. The Wilmington then
notified the Bancroft Of the three
masted steamer, and while doing so
stranger hove in sight. The Bancroft
went after her and the vessel headed
southeast, with the Bancroft going full
speed after her. The chase was a most
exciting one when the Wilmington last
saw the two vessels.
1t is presumed that the Spanish ship,
observing the Wilmington's military top
mistook her for a battleship and thought
it safe to continue scouting, trusting to
her superior speed for escape, but when
the Bancroft appeared, the Spaniard
wasted no time in trying to get away.
Capt. Todd of the Wilmington has no
doubt the Bancroft will catch the Span
lard.
A customhouse official here, when he
heard the story, said he had seen a
strange ship off Key West last night,
adding that she was gone in the morning
Capt. Todd is confident the vessel being
chased by the Bancroft is a Spanish aux
iliary cruiser on scout duty.
The Wilmington came in from the
blockade and reports all quiet there.

SCHLEY SAW THEM.
All DOUBT as to the Whereabouts Of
cervera's Squadron is
Removed

Washington, D. c., May 30.-The navy
department received at 1890 o clock this
morning a dispatch from Commodore
schley, stating that the Spanish feet is
in the bay of Santiago de Cuba and that
he has seen and recognized the vessels.
he official advices received from Com
modore Schley contain no information of
such an engagement as is reported from
Madrid, although it is known that they
were written after the battle is said to
have occurred, and the Madrid story is of
course untrue.
The adyices from Commodore Schley
Indicate that he is now and has been for
several days guarding the entrance to-
the bay of Santiago de Cuba,
That he has Admiral Ccryera and his
Cape Verde squadron Bottled I'D in the
bay is regarded by naval officials as be-
yond any doubt, although Commodore
schiey did not make a definite statement
to that effect
Commodore Schley has not only his
own squadron, but two or three vessels
besides at his command and it is not be-
lleved to be possible for the Spanish ad-
mIral to escape with his fleet either by
day or by night. r.
No information is obtainable as to the
intentions of Commodore Schiey. Whether
ne will eDdearor TO force an entrance to
the bay and seek battle with the Span
ish squadron is not known. but such ?
course at prest Mt IS not regarded as likely.
