Washington, April 20. From this time on the jvar preparations will go forward with activity, and both the army and navy' will be put in position for active operations. There seems to be little doubt that the first move will be to blockade one or more Cuban ports, and as soon as the army of occupation can be trans ported to them, and demand will be made for uncondition al surrender, and in event of refusal, the work of reducing them by bombardment will bo begun at once. It is not thought the assembling of the' naval forces will be delayed even tor a day, and it is not unlikely important movements of both arms of the service will be begun within the next few hours. Pal in a and one of Genoral Gomez' briu'adiurs, it Is said, have been consult ing with Gonornl Miles today, arranging for co-operation against Spnin. The administration lias urged upon the Republican lenders in both houses of congress the necessity of immediate action on the measure introduced in the house by Hull yesterday, authorizing the president to issue a call for volun teers.

But it seems that the Spanish government contemplated no such Hctlon, and last night the situa tion was that while the wealthy Span iard might go wherever his money would carry him, those sailing free would be landed at Havana. The indignation at such a course wis widespread in the local colony. It was pointed out that lor the impecuuious Spaniard to leave the city where Ii'ib right to life and police protection is guaranteed und be landed in a town which will be starved or shelled or both within a few days would be to place his life in jeopard. The mutterings against such an ar rangement were loud and deep, and it is not improbable that the Panama will carry less than one-half of the Spanish refugees which it would be expected would be on board ber. Arrangements have been made for 100 free passages. No more willlbe accepted. Every male Spaniard landed in Havana 'is being recruited forcibly. The refu gees would be seized and made to do military duty, so tliut the "protection" which Spain is offering to those who are unable to protest themselves by sailing under a neutral flag is in reality a de livery of them into the ranks of the army of Cuba.
