The war department'a plana for an immediate invasion of t'uba hare been materially changed by the news of tho pit nro of tlm Bitanish He. t in West Indian water. It will delay the move ment for a time. Four of liio men killed on the Wins low were laid at rest in the city ceme tery at Key West.

There Is a suspicion in Washington that Frenchmen were behind thu gun at Cardenas Wednesday. It Is said they shot too well for Spaniards. An imioiry is probable, and If thu auapicion proves to bo well grounded, complica tions may ensue between the United Stales and Franco over tho incident. The transport steamer Ouasln, which left Key West with a big expedition for Cuba Wednesday night, hud a lively engagement with tho Spanish at Cabuuun, province of Pinardel Kio, hut succeeded in accomplishing her mission.

Cardenas batteries and four Spanish gunboats on the othor. Thu Winslow was the main target of the enemy, and was put out of service. Tin other Ameican vessels were not damaged, except that tho Hudson's two ventilators were slightly scratched by j flying shot. Tho enemy's loss is large ly conjectural. Ono of their gunboats , caught lire ami the men of tho Hudson j think it sank. The liro spread to the burruoks, and swept away sevoral small warehouses, nnd for a time the whole Waterfront seemed to Is? ablaze. The Winslow was within 1,500 yards of ihoie when thu shells struck her. How she camo to be so close was told by her oommander, Lieutenant John U. Bernadou. Ho said: "We were making observations when the enemy opened fire on us. Tho Wilmington told us to go in and attack the gnnboata. We went in under full team and there is tho result." He was on the Hudson when ho said this uud with the ti mil words he point ed to u huddle of American Hags on the deck nearby. Under the Stars and Stripes were outlined tivo rigid foims. The land batteries of Cardenas sup- potted the fire of tin Spanish gunboats. The engagement oannnanmH nt f-n- p M., and lasted for about an hour. The Wilmington and Hudson were ahead, ami openetl lire on the Spanish boats,' which wero lying ut tho dock. Tho tiring began nt a range of 3,500 yards. A few minutes later, tho Winslow came up ami also Opened flro. In an instant, tho entire attention of tho Spanish gunboats nnd land batteries wan directed upon her. From all sides, shot and shell poured in on the little torpedo-boat The Wilmington and Hudson still kept up their lire. Tho crew ol the Winslow never faltered for u eooona.

The gunboat Hud son, lying near by, started to the ns" s.statice of the Winslow. After about 10 minutes, the Hudson approached near enough to throw a line. Ensign Hagley ami six men wero standing in a group on tho deck of the Winslow ready to catch a rope. A line was lumwn, ami at about the same instant a shell burst in tho very midst of tho group of men on Ixiard the Winslow Uagley wan instantly killed and a few others dropped about him. Half a dozen more m.-n fell gtoaniug on the blood stained deck. One of the men plunged headlong over the tide of tho boat, hut his feet caught in an iron tail, and he was hauled back.

The four above-namei! wero injured by tho bursting of a shell on the Now York. This is u complete list of the killed and wounded. The American ships are uninjured. Tho engagement began nt fi:15 A.

The ships taking part in tho action wero tho Iowa, Indiana, New York, Terror. Amphitrite, Detroit, Montgomery, Wauinpiitituck and Porter. The enemy'l firing wan heavy, hut wild, and tho Iowa nnd New York were probably tho only ships hit. Tin y went right up under tho guns in column, delivering bioadsidcH and then returned. They passed in front of the forts, jniuritig tons of steel on shore. It is itn08siblo to judge the amount of damage done to tho buildings and forts. They apteared to bo riddled with shot, but the Spaniard- were plucky. The after-turret of the Amphrite got out of order temporarily during tho en gagement, but she banged uwuy with her i nward guns. After the first passage before tho forts, tho Detroit nnd Montgomery ro tirod, their guns being too small to do much damage. The Porter and Waum puutuck also stayed out of range. Tho smoke hung ovor everything, spoiling the aim of tho gunners and making it impossible to tell where our shots sttuek. The officers and men of the ships behaved with coolness, ami bravery. The shots flaw thick and fast over all our ships. The men who wero hurt during the action were injured by splinters thrown by an eight-inch shell, which came through a bout into the superstructure, and scattered fragments in all direc tions. The shot's course was finally ended on an iron plate an inch thick. Merkle was struck in the arm ami may lose it. A fire wan started in the boat, but wan quickly extinguished.
