Your correspondent "has information oftbewifct trustworthy character that on the 17ih, the day after the first sec tion ot the flotilla readied the Canaries, I'retiltnt McKinley was warned by a person, whose testimony was considered worthy of belief, that he had positive knowledge Unit the purpose of the flo tilla was to strike the squadron, now un der c uiumnd ol CHpt. Sumpson, in the hope of crippling the nival forces of the United States bo that Spain would be in a better condition for waging war. It was stated that the blow was to be struck, accordiug to the plan before war was actually declared, the Spanish gov eminent presumably believed that war conld not be avoided. This warning may seem to have been based upon a rediculons presumption, but it was cerluinly considered eerloue enouith to warrant the issuing of a di rection which caused Admiral Sicard to place picket boats about the vessels, and to use searchlightB from euudovi n to sun rise. The present plan is to have the flying squadron Intercept the flotilla in the Weet Indies.
