Washington," April 20. The great
est interest today in war matters is
centered in the movements of the
navy. The Hying squadron is at
Hampton Roads, under command of
Commodore Schley, and the North
Atlantic squadrons is enforcing the
blockade of Cuba. At the Brooklyn
navy yards arc the cruisers New Or
leans and San Francisco and they
may join the flying squadron today.
The Marietta and the Oregon are
along the Atlantic coast of South
America, it is being expected that
they will reach Rio Jrnerio in a few
days. The dynamite cruiser Nlctbe-
roy, just purchased from Brazil, is
still in Rio Janeiro. The newly
purchased cruiser Topeka is at sea on
the way from Portsmouth to New
York, and the torpedo-boat Sotners is
still at Portsmouth ready for sea.
The Paris, for whose safety no
alarm is felt, will arrive in New
York by the middle of the week,
The dynamite cruiser "Vesuvius,
which sailed yesterday from Newport,
is believed to have gone to Key West.
She carried an extra quantity of pro
jectiles. The cruiser Columbia will
probably sail during the night for
patrol duty. The steamer Minneap
olis steaming rapidly oil the coast
passed Highland Light, Mass., yes
terday afternoon,
An Associated press telegram from
San Francisco says: Within another
twenty four hours three government
boats will have been assigned to
patrol service in and about the local
harbor. Today the cutters Rush,
Corwin and Grant lowered their
revenue flags, and hoisted the nary
ensign instead.
A special from Matanzas, by way of
Key West reports that tfe Dauntless
a dispatch-boat of the Associated
Press, steamed to the blockading
squadron off Matanzas yesterday
There has been no incident worth
noting since the capture of the
Spanish steamer Catalina and the
schooners in the early morning.
According to a special from Buenos
Ayres" to the New York Herald: The
nerald's correspondent In Rio Janeiro
says that 500 Americans there have
expressed a wish to go as sailors on
the Nlctheroy when she 6tarts for the
United States. The battalion formed
by theSpaniards now includes more
than 500 men.
The Washington Post this morning
contains the follewing: The Spanish
fleet, which mobalized at the Cape
Verde islands, was yesterday notified
by Portugal to leave St. Vincent. An
other account says. The Spanish
fleet is still here, but it is reported
that the vessels will sail from this
Island tomorrow. The fleet is ex
ceedingly formidable, including four
lirst-elass cruisers, six torpedo-boats
and two armed transports.
Since the Cuban cables have been
cut the blockade Is tightly drawn
across the mouth of Havana harbor.

Unless Minister Polo and suite
leave Canada within a reasonable
time, the state department will In
form the British government that
plots hostile to the. United States are
being hatched across the border.
The treasury spcret service agents
are now making an investigation.
Hardly had Polo reached Canada be
fore oUlclal and other Spaniards bo
gan to arrive. Senor Dubosc, who
announced his departure for Europe,
hastily joined Polo. The arrival and
secrecy attending the movements of
the Spaniards indicated big move
ments were afoot. It was reared by
the administration that Spanish spies
might hatch schemes to cripple our
warships or destroy our fortifications
and it was ecn thought that Spain
may attempt to infect our southern
ports with yellow fever.
A change In the strategical plan
arranged for Sampson's squadron now
blockading Cuban ports has teen de
cided on. Its execution will depend
on the movement of the Spanish
squadron now concentrated at Cape
Verde Islands. The new arrange
ment, which will go Into effect as
sonn as the Spanish fleet leaves Cape
Vlucentand is not reported within a
reasonable period, provides for the
withdrawal from the blockading
squadron of six armorclads and their
concentration at some central point
on the Atlantic coast.
The plan of the Spanish fleet is not
unlikely, to proceed to New York,
Boston or other important place, for
the purpose of bombardment, in the
hope this government will not be able
to send sufliclent force to meet them
before great damage is inflicted. As
the matter now stands, it would
greatly injure the efficiency of the
blockade to withdraw some armor
clads, for within a short time a host
of auxiliary gunboats will be at Samp
son's orders capable of handllug any
thing flying the Spanish flag in the
West Indies.
Sampson would be assisted in New
York by the swift cruisers Columbia
and Minneapolis,' and -four converted
American liners, which will scour
the seas on the lookout for the enemy.
A Hong Kong spaelal says: The
first naval battle between the Span
ish and American fleets Will probably
be fought oil Manilla. It will almost
certainly take place tomorrow or Wed
nesday, at the latest.
A cablegram from St. John's says
that a Spanish warship lias been
sighted off Bay hulls, 20 miles south
of St. John's. She Is supposed to be
searching for American Ashing ves
sels on the banks of New Foundland.

Washington. April 20. In order
that the Cuban Insurgents may fully
co-operate with the army uayy of
the United States in this campaign
against the Spanisli forces in Cuba,
It is probable that the pacific block
ade of the insular harbors will- be
followed by an attempt on the part
of the American forces to reach the
army of General Gomez. The plan is
to take one port on each I he North
and South sides of the Island and from
a junction with Gomez' forces at
SauctI Splritus, and with General
Garcia in Santiago do Cuba.
Both General Lee and Captain
SIgsbeo have been challenged to light
a duel by a Spanish officiate. No
news has been received of a reply hay
ing been seen in cither case. Lieu
tenant DeCarranjras' ilrst challenge
was sent to General Lee and It Is
rather more lengthy than the one to
Captain Sigsbee. The latter stated
that, in his judgment, Spinlsh ofll
cials exploded the mine which blew
up the Maine. Tills, Lieutenant
Da Cirranzas says In his challenge, la
a direct reflection upon the Honor of
the nayal officers who had charge of
the naval refenses of Havana.
"Any man who makes such a charge
on belief and on proof," the chal
lenge proceeds, "is himself capable of
committing tho crime.
The challenge clotes as follews:
"For eight days I shall await your
answer at the Spanish consulate in
Toronto"
The challenge to General Lee was
mailed on the 20th Inst., as the Span
ish minister and his party were ubout
to take the train, the state depart
ment having furnished him his pus-
ports that afternoon.
It was confidently predicted last
night that Admiral Walker, retired,
will succeed Theodore Roosevelt as
assistant secretary of the nayy.
The queen regent of Spain has ad
dressed telegrams to all the European
sovereigns asking for aid. In her tel
egram to King Humbert the queen
says: "I feel It my duty to address
myself to your majesty and all Eu
ropean sovereigns in order to call at
tention to the Incredible attitude of a
government which, under the pre
text of delivering people who are
faithful to their mother country, is
today spurning under foot the most
sacred rights of Spain, us tomorrow It
will spurn those of other nations."

The only progress made In congress
yesterday on the various other war
measures pending, was the passage by
the senate of the naval bill. The
war revenue bill, It Is announced, will
bo reported today and pass tho house
some tlmn this week.
Tho Washington correspondent of
the New York Herald sent the fol-
lawlng special last night. Hawaiian
annexation which would not be ac
complished In times of peace is moro
than a probabllty now that war Is
on. It is learned that a great effort
Is to bo made next week to procure
the ratlticitlun of the treaty annex,
ing the Hawaiian islands to tho
United States. Secret sessions are to
begin early in the week, probably
tomorrow, for this purpose.
At last uccounts there were 55 votos
In the senate assured for tho treaty,
less than required. Senator Davis
believes now that some of the original
opponents of tho treaty have been
made to appreciate tho strategic
value of the Island, In view of the
pending war with Spain.
There is no longer any danger of ob
jection from Japan to the annexation
propostlon, for It Is said that there
Is already a tacit understanding be
tween the United States and Japan
whereby the latter country will event
ually bo given control of tho Phil
ippines in return for certain assist
ance during tho war, tho character
of which will soon become apparent.
