AGKNT FOR NORTH CAROLINA,
ASIIEYILLE. N. C.
Commander of the Uncat Falls to Se
. cure Release of Correspondents Jones
and Theall United States Vessels
Fir on Spaniards Along Coast.
Key West, May 17. The United
States goTernment tug TJncas has re
tarued here from off Havana.
Sh dld.amt brine the tvo Amerioaa
newspaper correspondents, said to be
Charles Tbeall and H&yden Jones,
captured by the Spaniards and im
prisoned la Fort Cabanas, whose re
lease the commander of the Uncas
attempted to consummate on the
basis of exchanging them for Spanish
prisoners held by the United States.
Neither Captain Brainard of the Un
cas nor any other person on board will
give details of the result of the expedi
tion until the official report on the sub
ject has been made to Commodore Remy.
The government tug Osceola reported
this morning that while cruising along
the Cuban coast with the torpedo boat
Ericsson on Friday afternoon, they saw
a large body of Spanish soldiers patroll
ing tne snore about a miles west of Ha
vana.
Both boats sent in a fuailade of shots
which scattered the- troops, but it is
not known if any of: the soldiers were
hilled. The Spaniards did not return
the fire.
It looks like stern business" when the
hospital corps is sent to the front. The
first of those "who will attend the
woundecV on board ship reached Key
West on Wednesday last in the United
States ambulance ship Solace. The So
lace has been at anchor several weeks
at Hampton Roads. Her officers, sur
geons and others were anxious to get to
work, if .there was work to be done. On
Saturday previous to her arrival here
she received hurry orders to get nearer
to what is to be the scene of action.
Of course, the plan is - to have the
Solace where 6he will be of the most
good, and when Commander Dun lap ar
rived in port he was uncertain whether
he would be ordered to Havana, off the
coast, or be sent to Porto Rico, to which
point Admiral Sampson's squadron was
at that time supposed to be heading.
At any rate the Solace has a mission
to fulfill before' caring for the
wounded and that is to cross the
' Florida strait and visit the chief war
ships of the blockading fleet.
Among the sick of the blockaders the
delicacies provided by the colonial
dames will be distributed, or else they
will be stored on the various ships for
future use.
NEWSPAPER MEN ARE SAFE.
Imprisoned Correspondents Will Be
Released at Once. "
New York, May 17. A special dis
patch from Key West to The Evening
World says: . The World correspondents
imprisoned in Fort Cabanas, in Cuba,
are saved. General Blanco has courte
ously acceded to representations made
to him by Special Government Agent
Brainard, U. S. N. As quickly as two
Spanish officers can reach Key West
they will be taken to Havana under a
white flag to be exchanged, and The
World correspondents will be brought
back to Key West by the same special
steamer.
The London Times' well known war
correspondent. Knight, and the British
consul, Gollan, in Havana, acted vigor
ously in the matter. It is believed that
had Lieutenant Brainard 's instructions
been more sweeping he ' could have
brought the men back on the Uncas.
Lieutenant Brainard reports that the
docks of Havana were lined yesterday
with angry people. Mr. Knight was
advised by Consul Gollan not to land for
fear of mob (violence, because he was
brought over by a United States man
of war. '
The war correspondents will likely
reach Key West tonight or tomorrow
morning.

French Marine Minister on the Mar
tinique Coaling Incident.
New .York, May 17. A dispatch to
The "World from Paris says: The
French minister of marine, to whom
The World correspondent was referred
by 1 the foreign secretary for inf orma
ion respecting the action of the French
authorities at Martinique in permitting
the Spanish fleet to coal at Fort do
France, said:
"I have no cognizance of any applica
tion for permission of the Spanish fleet
to coal at Martinique."
This accords with the statement that
The World subsequently received from
M. Eduord Clunet, the chief internal
jurist of France and leading French ex
ponent of the continental system of in
ternational jurisprudence. Maitre CJu
net says:
"I do not consider the Martinique in
cident a breach of the French declara
tion of neutrality. That declaration
does not include the right of asylum,
which depends upon usage and not on
law.
"As to the right of asylum, the views
of France, England and . America prac
tically accord, as proof of which I may
cite the proclamation of General Grant
on the breaking out of the Franco-German
war.
"According to usage, therefore, the
Spanish fleet had the right to put in at
Martinique, and with the permission of
the authorities of the port, to take on
sufficient coal to carry them to the de
clared nearest port of their own country.
"If the provision was not sufficient
they might make up the deficiency of
another neutral port without a breach
of neutrality. After taking ooal they
must leave within-24 hours."
New Yobs, limy IT. A special to
The World frqrn WaehlBgtoB says: The
board of strategy, composed of three
naval officer, who are reallvrWduct
ing the war with Spain, is credited with
having caused serious differences be
tween the army and naval branohes of
the service.
The leading offioerVof the army are
not pleased with ths methods and
measures of the beard of strategy and
refer to it in uncomplimentary terms.
Professional etiquette and the rules of
military discipline restrain them from
making open comments concerning the
conduct ef the war by the board of
strategy, but the president has heard a
good deal from the army during the last
day or two about the mistakes the board
of strategy is making. x
No formal protest has been made to
the president against any specific acts
of the board of strategy, but it is learned
upon excellent authority that the presi
dent's attention was called to the fact
that all the operations are one-sided.
being entirely of a naval character.
Army officers and some members of
congress have expressed the opinion to
the president that the sea fighting
which has been indulged 111 has not re
sulted in any appreciable progress in
the undertaking of the United States to
free Cuba; several lives have been lost,
a few prizes taken and the actual
freedom of Cuba remains as far away
from accomplishment as it was when
the war began.
The president has been advised to
change the plans of the board of strat
egy to the extent of ordering the in
vasion of Cuba by a land force snJH
oiently large to make short, sharp
and deoisive work of ths Spanish
forces in Cuba. It is said that he is
giving serious consideration to the
recommendation.
The plan which has been submitted
to him is to call in the services of the
Sampson and Schley fleets to escort the
transports from Key West to the point on
the Cuban coast selected for the landing
of the invading army, leaving enough
vessels to maintain the blockade at Ha
vana. The transportation of all the troops
that will be necessary to make short
work of the Spanish forces in Cuba will
not consume more than three days at
the outside. Active campaigning can
be begun within 43 hours from the land
ing of the army on Cuban soil.
The task of driving out the Span
iards could then prooeed on both land
and sea, the warships bombarding Ha
vana or engaging Spanish warships,
if any appear, while the troops could
drive the Spaniards from the cities
down to the sea, where there is no
avenue of escape.
This is known to be the plan favored
by General Miles and most of the gen
erals who will command the invading
troops.

San Francisco, May 17. It is now

Springfield rifles from the Benecra arse

TALK OF BRITISH ALLIANCE.
Secretary Joaepb Chamberlain's Ad
dress) Cuwsea CovttfMeae.
WASHiKeKnt Slay 17. Unusual in
terest is attached to the speech deliv
ered at Birmingham, England, by
Joseph Chamberlain, colonial secretary.
Following Mr. Chamberlain's speech
came the suggestion from Henri Roche
fort that a triple alliance between Italy,
Spain and France should be consum
mated. These suggestions caused marked
comment about the capitol today. It is
recognized that an alliance' between the
United States and England would be
sufficiently strong to shape the destinies
of the world, no matter who combined
against them.
There is a strong undercurrent of sen
timent here in favor of such an alliance
as Mr. Chamberlain proposes. But the
concensus of opinion is that it would be
better to await the result of the war
with Spain before entering into any
such agreement.
U we demonstrate our superiority and
come out victorious, it is. certain .there
will be a strong sentiment for cutting
loose from old landmarks and taking a
more aggressive stand among the na
tions of the world.
Btate Department Will Probably Ile-
quest Great Britain to Give the Span
iard III Walking rapers-AUeged
He Is Violating Neutrality Laws.
Washington, May 17. It is probable
that within a very brief time Ambassa
dor Hay will be directed by the state
department to request the British gov
ernment not to permit Senor Polo y
Bernabe to remain in Canada. This
request will apply to the entire Spanish
legation and to many other Spaniards
who are said have been violating neu
trality laws by making Canada a head
quarters for a complete spy system
throughout the United States.
! When Chief Wilkie of the secret ser
vice arrested the spy, George Downing,
who last week committed suicide in the
guardhouse at the Washington barracks,
he found plenty of evidence of the nefa
rious work Downing was doing, and ho
also intercepted a compromise letter ad
dressed to Lieutenant Caranzas. The
letter clearly proves that the spy was. in
the emloy of the Spanish government
and that he received his instructions
from Caranzas, who is the naval at
tache of the Spanish legation.
I Chief Wilkie concluded that if Car
anzas was directing this contemptible
work he was doing so by the instruc
tions of the Spanish minister, and he at
once notified the postoffice department
to confiscate all mail matter intended
for the Spanish minister and members
of the legation. This order was obeyed
and the postoffice officials seized a con
siderable quantity of compromising let
ters and documents.
These were obtained from all over the
country and forwarded to the general
Qostoffloe at Washington. They were
today delivered to an army lieutenant,
who took the correspondence to Assist
ant Secretary of War Meiklejohn, who
is directing the work of the secret ser
vice men.
I It is known that this mail matter de
veloped enough inf 01m tion to show
that the Spaniards have a complete spy
system at work all over the United
States, and that instructions are seut to
these spies from Canada. Specific in
formation us to the contents of the con
fiscated mail was refused at the war de
partment today, but enough is known
respecting it to warrant the assertion
tion that it is of very great importance
to the government.
I It is believed by the administration
that upon a proper presentation of all
the facts and all the correspondence to
Sir Julian Paunoefote, British ambas
sador, the latter will recommend his
government to expel from Canadian
territory the Spanish legation, and all
other subjects of Spain known to have
been implicated in the alleged con
temptible violation of the hospitality of
a neutral country by conducting a spy
system with headquarters in such
coon try.
Michigan Troops on Move.
Detroit, May 17. Three long trains,
bearing the Thirty-first Michigan in
fantry, passed through West Detroit
early this morning enroute to Chicka
mauga. They proceeded southward via
the Michigan Central, Cincinnati, Ham
ilton and Da v ton and Cincinnati South
ern roads. Several hundred from the
city assembled at the suburban station
to say goodby to the Detroit battalion,
who occupied the second section, but
they were not permitted to visit the
soldiers, most of whom were asleep.
The Thirty-second regiment is awaiting
orders to follow southward.
MAY NOT GO TO MANILA.
Graham Will Probably Remain In De
partment of the Gulf.
Atlanta, May 17. General Graham,
commander of tho department of the
gulf, who went to Washington several
days ago, has returned to this city,
j When asked about the report that he
would be sent to the Philippines' to as
sist General Merritt in command of the
forces there. General Graham stated
such was the plan several days ago, but
that there had been a change and he
did not know whether he' would be sent
there or not.
I When asked where the Georgia vol
unteers would be sent he stated that it
was the intention of the war depart
ment to mobilize them somewhere im
mediately after they were mustered m.
An order to Colonel Brown to move may
arrive at any moment. It is thought a
portion of the Georgia quota will be
sent to Tampa and the balance probably
to Chickamauga,
I The advance guard of the regular re
cruits thab are to be mobilized here,
about 17,000 strong, is expected In a day
or two The recruiting officers have
already begun securing men, and just
as soon as they are enrolled and ex
amined they will be sent to Fort Mcpherson.
Announced In Madrid That the Minis
terial Changs Will He Follow eU by
Energetic Action Relying on Ad
miral Cervereas and Squadron.
Madrid, May 17. Senor Sagasta tbli
this afternoon visited the palace and
formally handed to the queen regent
the resignation of the minis try.
The queen regent has charged Senor
Sagasta to form a new cabinet- The
premier will, this evening, eemfe
with the presidents of the chambers
and with Senor Gamaao.
A communication has been sent to
the chambers announcing the cabinet
crisis and asking the chambers to sus
pend their sesion., pending a solution.
Senor Sagast b-li-ves the new minis
try will be fumed by next Wednesday.
Orders have Icen isued by Senor Sa
gasta couuu-nunn-ling the reception
which was to have lxtn held tomorrow
on the ocvasitm of the king's birthday,
and he has fen instructions to captains
general in all districts not to hold their
usual receptif n.
Senor More-t, minister for the cole
nies. today confirmed the statement
that any changes made la the 00 as po
sition of tho cabinet will be wholly
La the direction of a more active war
policy.
He says:
"Recent events have greatly Increased
the war spirit of the nation. The great
est reliance is placed upon Admiral Cer
vereas' squadron and upon the skill of
the Spanish admiral. Cerveras is not
hampered by instructions, as the details'
of his plans are not even known to the
ministers."
Captain General Blanco, in a dispatch
from Havana, officially reiterates the
Spanish version of the socalled fight be
tween the Spanish gunboats Oonde do
Ye nan to and Xeueva Espana and tha
vessels of the American blockading
fleet. He claims that the two gun boat 1
engaged fire American ships and forced
the latter to retreat, adding:
"I obtained the results desired,
namely, to attract as many of the ene
my's ships as possible. Yesterday morn
ing there were only three here and now
there are 11."
The newspapsre express fear that m
secret Anglo-American alllaaoe al
ready exists.
Admiral Carre rara, the cnmman'ler of
the Spanish reserve squadron at Cadiz,
has been recalled here to confer witn
the ministers respecting his intended
operations.
TO CO FROM TUSCUMBIA.
More North Alabama Troops Will
Pitch Tents at Mobile.
Mobile, May 17. The announcement
that one of two com panics needed to
complete the Second regiment A la bams
volunteers will come from Tuscumbia
is creating much comment among the
officers and men of the First. This will
make 14 companies North Alabama has
furnished, besides having had 400 men
here who were rejected.
What is the matter with' Central and
South Alabama? they ask. Is the
Birmingham district to furnish the
state's quota? Of course the First regi
ment is proud of their section of their
state coming up so handsomely, but
they think the other sec-tious should be
heard from.
"We may nerd a let of fellows to fill
