NAVAL PLANS SUSPENDED.
Various Changes in European Squad
 ron Make Shakeup Necessary.

Washington, May 22.-The various re- cent changes in the European squadron have caused suspension of the plans of the navy department respecting the foreign movements of the ships which now compose 1t. Yesterday the three pro- tected cruisers, Albany, Cincinnati and Raleigh, sailed from Vile France for the Asiatic station, where with the New Orleans they are to form a separate di- vision of the Asiatic fleet. The departure of these three ships reduces the Eu- ropean squadron to the flagship Chicago and the gunboat Machias, last reported at Marseilles. Soon, however, they will be reinforced by the San Francisco, which has sailed from Santiago for Lisbon. Un- der the changed circumstances 1t will de- pend upon the President himself whether this squadron will go to Leil.
