Washington, April 22. A meet
in? of the cabinet was held today, at
the close of which it was announced
that the administration now considers
the war as being- on, and that hostili
ties will bo pressed at all points as
rapidly as possible.
The president today issued a procla
mation which announces a blockade of
the port of Havana on the north and
Cienfuegos on the south coast of Cuba.
These blockades it is Headed to enforce
immediately with the vessels of the
North Atlantic fleet," which eailed
from Key West this morning at 5:45.
The orders to the Beets, it is announc
ed, will hereafter be held secret, to
prevent, the Spaniards gaining an ink
ling of the grorernment's plans.
Rapid progress is being made with
the various war measure's brought be
fore congress during the past three
days. The coal embargo resolution
today received the president's signa
ture, and is now a law, and the con
ference report on the volunteer army
bill passed bo.h houses of congress.
The naval bill will probably go through
Monday.
A proposition is understood to be
under consideration by. the adminis
tration to take possession of both the
Philippine and Hawaiian islands, as a
war measure, but the report, could not
bee.fjlcially confirmed.

the latter ignored. This was followed
by a shot from a six pounder. The

towed her prize into this harbor at II
o'clock this morning, and put a prize

The news of the capture of the

Keeping Mum.
Washington, April 24. Nobody at
the navy department would talk about
the departure of the flying squadron,
but in naval circles it is the general
belief that Schley's ships are going
out for business. Soma oiHcers were
of the opinion that the ships had been
ordered to meet the Oregon and the
Marietta, coming from the Pacific,
and in whose path Spanish warships
are lying in wait.
It was learned, on apparently good
authority, that a proclamation will
probably be issued Monday or Tuesday
declaring the blockads of San Juan,
Porto Rico. This would indicate that
the flying squadron is to guard the en
trance to that part.

ceived show that the Paris tid not
turn back and that she is now on the
ocean and well on her way to New
brk. The greatest confidence is dis
played in administration circles to-
iffhtover ber safe arrival. A mem
ber of the cabinet said that she could
show a clean pair of heels to any Ppan

she would arrive at New York on
schedule time.

Washington, April 28. Following
is the text of the report of the house
foreign r flairs committee, formally
declaring that war exists between the
United States and Spain, as adopted
by ths house and agreed to by the sen
ate yesterday: "
Be it enacted, by the senate and
the house of representatives of the

PASSING OF THE FAKE AUCTION.
Ono Kind of Business That Is Happily and
Permanently Suspended.
Where has the jewelry auctioneer
one? Up to three years ago there
tvrre at least a dozen places on. the
South side where a gaudy display of
watches, diamonds and revolvers in
fhs windows called attention to a scarce
ly less loud auctioneer within. He stood
on nn elevation behind the counter; he
had "cappers" both inside and outside
the place, ond his sonorous tones were
ringing all the time. lie watched the
stream of rnsscrs-by on the street and
"backed the rlav" of the cappers. lie
sold nil manner of watches, and he al
ways "got the best, of it."
As a rule, says the Chicago Post, these
salesmen were excellent auctioneers
and knew all the wiles of their craft.
Lp to two years ago some of them
were still running, but they graditally
laded out. n:ul now there is not on.
with the trifling exception of a Salur-
my night fling 111 West Madison street
They must do a pood business, sellinc
quantities or material at an excellent
price. But there was on end of all
things in their line and the jewelry auc
tion nas vanished.
Gambling In India.
Amongst the Hindoos throughout
the whole of India there is a holiday
celebration in honor of Lakshmi, the
goddess of wealth and good fortune,
whereon gambling is universally re
garded as a religious duty. It isknown
as the festival of lamps, and 011 that day
all classes indulge in games of chanco
with sheila, coins, cards, dice, etc., and
the future of tie individual, whether
good or bad, is looked upon as a forecast
of his wealth or poverty during the en
suing year. The women take a most in
tense interest in the proceedings and, if
fortunate, expend their winnings in
the purchase of sweet-ments and fruits,
as gifts to all their friends and rela
tions, toys for the small children and
fireworks for the boys. At Benares,
th3ir sacred city, as night approaches.
small earthen lamps, fed with oil, are
kindled, making the outlines of every
mansion, palace, temple nnd minaret
visible. All vessels in the river are also
illuminated; so that the whole city i
one blaze of light.

Cnlqne Method of Capturing Salmon TJfod
by the Ainu.
The savages of Sakhalin island have
a unique method of fishing for salmon
trout with their dogs, a description of
which is given in "Trans-Siberian Sav
ages." The water around the island
is wonderfully clear. The author, who
went out in a canoe, says the bottom
was distinctly visible, while from
under the canoe the frightened salmon
tiout were swimming seaward in such
numbers it seemed as if it would be
difficult to drop a stone into the water
without striking one.
From the time we started I was
puzzled to guess what the Ainus could
be taking thirty dogs with them for.
I was soon to find out. At a certain
point all the men and dogs came to a
halt. Half the men and dogs then
moved farther along the water'a edge
about two hundred yards.
At a concerted signal the dogs were
started from their respective"" point
and swam straight out seaward in
single file in two columns. At a wild,
sharp cry from all the Ainus the right
column wheeled left and the left col
umn wheeled right until the head of
each column met. Then at another
signal all of them swam in line toward
the shore, advancing more and more in
crescentic formation.
As the dogs neared the 6hore In
creasing numbers of fish appeared in
the shallow water, frightened forward
by the splashing of the advancing col
umn of dogs, which, as soon as their
feet touched bottom, pounced npon
the fishes as quick as a flatsh.'
The animals promptly brought the
fish which they had seized to their
masters, who cut off their beads and
gave each dog the bead which be
longed to him as his share of the catch.
The dog who caught nothing got noth
ing. I believe this dog drill of the Ainus
is entirely unique. It Is all the more
remarkable, too, as the dogs, many of
which have been captured' from the
trest, are still half wild.

A TERRIBLE HAWK.
An Enemy That Strikes Terror to Feata
ered Demlsena of the Bush.
The author of "The Naturalist in La
Plata" gives an impressive description
of the terror produced by the appear
ance of a rather small hawk, of a spe- ,
cies unknown to him, although be baa
seen it a hundred times. It is a marsh,
hawk. That is to say it seeks its prey
in marshes.
I have frequently seen all the inhabi
tants of a marsh struck with panic, act
ing as if demented and suddenly grown
careless to all other dangers. On such '
occasions I have looked up, confident of
seeing this particular hawk suspended,
above them in the aky.
All birds that happen to be on the
wing drop into the reeds or water as if
shot. Ducks away from the- shore
stretch ont their necks horizontally
and drag their bodies, as if wounded,
into closer cover. Not one bird is found
bold enough to rise and wheel about
the marauder a usual proceeding in
the case of other hawks; while at every
sudden stoop of the falcon a low cry of
terror rises from the birds underneath
. sound expressive of an emotion so
contagious that it quickly runs like a
murmur all over the marsh, as if a
gust of wind had swept moaning
through tbe rushes.
As long as the falcon hangs overhead,
always at a height of about forty yards,
threatening at intervals to dash down,
this murmuring sound, made up of
many hundreds of individual cries, is
heard swelling and dying away, and
occasionally, when he drops lower than
usual, it rises to a sharp scream of ter
ror. .
Sometimes, when I have been riding'
over marshy ground, one of these
hawks has placed himself directly over
my head, within fifteen or twenty
yards. It has perhaps acquired the
habit of following horsemen in this
way, in order to strike at any birds
driven up.
Once my horse almost trod on a
couple of snipe squatting, terrified, in
the short (Trass. The instant they rose
the hawk 'Struck at one of them, the'
end of his wing smiting my cheek vio
lently as he stooped. The snipe escaped
diving under the brwuv and .
mediately dropped on the other side erf
me; and the hawk, rising, flew away'' '
