The gunboat Nashville ran her down and pat ar shot' across her bows from the 4-inch gun on the port side aft, manned by Lieutenant Dillingham. -.The Spaniard ignored the 'shot, but another clp8or to her, .bows, brought her to. A prize orew, , nndor Ensign J Ma- gruder, was put aboard. I .. Captain Luzairaga, in command of her, was . astounded.

' V Aocoiding to prize laws, Captain Maynard ' will turn the prisoners of war over to the United States . district attorney,' who will decide the, question of their dsiposition. The Buena Ventura is a tramp steam or of 1,15(5 tons, and hails from Bilboa, Spain. ' She has ' a cargo of lumber, loaded at Pascagoula, Miss., and was bound for Rotterdam. ! The news of the oapture ol the Span iard set the people of Key West frantic with enthusiasm All Work was sua ponded, and the docks were crowded with people.

Satisfaction at the Department. Washington, April 25. The report that -the gunboat Nashville had cap tured a Spanish merchant ship gained rapid circulation throughout the navy department shortly after noon today. It caused much excitement, and was eagerly discussed as an outward evfc dence of the actual xistence of war. Secretary Long, however, had ' not re ceived ; word of ' the capture, except through newspaper sources. . Notwith standing this, naval ofnoers oiedited the report and discussed iti as though' it was an accepted fact. It was said that a part of the crew had 'been placed on board, and the captured vessel had a valuable cargo,' including considerable coal. . v .' ' ' ! Among the offlclalsi the report caused much satisfaction, although it was said the 'capture of ?: a Spanish 'warship would ' have been" more acceptable. There ia said to be ho question as to the right of taking Spanish merchant ships' at this time. Two of these ships left Galveston within the last day or so with considerable oargoes of cotton on board. "Another Spanish ship ia said to' be' en route from Vera Cruz, Mexico, witn 1,000,000 pesetas .on board, representing the subscription of Vera Cruz to the Spanish in Cuba. ?

The prospect of arranging peaceably the differences betwen ' Spaifl and this oountry began to , disappear, about the opening of this month. Foreign buy ing of "cash wheat " began then in a liberal way and continued oh a larger scale than the the speculators would at the time believe." Between March 30,: when Leitei reported. 2,500.000 bushels sold abroad in one transaction, and the' middle of last week, when in two days he, reported 1,800,000 bush els, his sales of spot were almost 6,-. 000,000 bushels' Within 1 that same period he kept disposing of May on the hard spots, possibly in the ; two weeks to the -extent of 2,000,000 bushels. Last Friday the enormous July sales effected .through Cudahy, 1 estimated by different people from 5,000,000 to 8,000,000 bushels. That drew atten tion to the enormous liquidation of May and cash that had been quietly effected during a fortnight. ' It did not re quire long retrospection to make ..plain that within less than three weeks the Leiter soiling of -cash, May and July had aggregated from 12;000,000 to. 15, 000,000 bushels. . What has made' this possible was . demonstrated Saturday, when, in spite of the known enormous selling of the largest holder, the' for eign markets came higher and foreign orders were received on a scale to rally prices two cents a bushel..! At the olose of last week5 traders were agreed that the one man influences, so all important for a year, had at last been supplanted by broader ones; that what Leiter 'did would not be nearly so influential for the future as what the foreigners did and that or,op prospects and receipts and exports and the other circumstances, of which one operator might learn as welj as another, would, become, the, improtant faotors again. t .-' ' " " ' " Portland Market.. . ...

United States Acted Wisely in Declar ing Against Privateering. New York,' April 25. A dispatoh to the Tribune from London says: The announcement that the United States, in the event of hostilities,, will not re sort to privateering and will be gov erned by the four rules of the deolara tion of Paris, is considered a masterly stroke in diplomatio circles While England's sympathy has been with America from first to last, Spain has gained some tactful advantages as negotiations have proceeded. The point has been scored, not by many, but' by a few English journals, that while Spain has made a series of con cessions to America, congress in the end has compelled her to fight. All the continental journals have agreed' in de scribing the negotiations as one-sided, with Spain in the position of offering one sacrifice , after another, without pleasing American opinion. It was important that the. state de partment, while justifying war on humane principles, should restrict the area of disturbance as much as possible and guarantee security for neutral' com mercial interests. This has been done bv the official announcement from Washington that the government will adhere to the principles of the deolara tion of Paris. Nothing could be more satisfactory to England, France and Germany.' It is pledged that the United States will respect the four rules of the declaration of Paris, dis countenance privateering, proteot neU' tral goods under any flag and the ene- mv sailing under a neutal flag, . with the single exception of contraband of war, and recognize . the, necessity Of making a blockade effective in order to render it binding. These four pledges will be the safeguards of European commerce in the ponding war. ' So far as the American practice is concerned, Spain will be placed on the defensive. . She will be compelled to repeat these assurances or else alienate European sympathy.' '' The judgment in diplomatic, circles is that America has adopted a course which will embarrass Spain, conciliate the commercial and mercantile classes of England and the continent and strengthen the position of the United States, i: Every one of the four rules of the declaration of Paris is in 1 favor of America In tho event of hostilities. Diplomats perceive at once that Amer ica has nothing to -lose and much to gain from the abolition of privateering and the protection of neutral commerce and private property under any flag, and the establishment of the principle that a blockade in order to be binding must be effective. , , It would be to the manifest advan tage of the United States if both bel ligerents were under obligations to .re spect the declaration of Paris. The state department, , by taking high grounds in the interest of civilization, may force Spain to follow it. ' If Spain draws back, owing to a wanton desire to capture and destrojr private property at sea, it will be an offense against the commercial interests and , moral opin ion of Europo. ' - ' ' " V ' This is the judgment of diplomatists, members of parliament and representa tives of mercantile England, and they sincerely, hope that the announcement of the American- intention in today's papers will be followed by similar as surances from - Spain. It caunot" be dodbted that the adherence of the United States to the declaration of Paris will strengthen' English feeling in favor of America and greatly impair, the "anti-American sentiment on the oontinent. .It will be ' an appeal to self-interest all around,yet will bave a moral justification in the high aims of civilization. - ... ,;. i'" " .'
