Spanish Admiral to be Tried for Caw-

By Cable to The Morning Post.
Hong Kong, May 24.—The Japanese
cruiser Akitsuhima arrived here today
from Manila.
She reports that the captain of the
Spanish gunboat Callao, which was re
cently captured by Admiral Dewey’s
fleet, will b^shot for not returning the
fire of the American vessels.
She also reports that Admiral Mon-
tejo, who commanded the Spanish fleet
which was destroyed by Dewey, is to
be courtmartialled upon the charge of
cowardice.
Dewey is improving the sanitary con
dition of Cavite.
He has granted to the British and
German merchants permission to move
from Manila to Cavite, and has ordered
that houses be placed at their disposal.
Provisions are becoming very scrace,
and the Spanish volunteers have
threatened to seize the stores, because
their demand for arrears of pay have
been refused.

Admiral Camara Left Yesterday for
Cadiz to Join Reserve Squadron.
By Cable to The Morning Post.
Madrid, May 24.—The anxiety here
concerning Admiral Cervera increases
hourly.
The Government tries to reassure the
public by circulating favorable ac
counts of the advantages of Santiago
as a refuge for the squadron.
Nevertheless, there is obvious anxiety
among the officials and the press. In
view of the expected severance of the
last cable to Cuba, the Government
during the past forty-eight hours has
sent long despatches to Blanco and
Cervera. instructing them as
eventualities.
Admiral Camara, commander
to all
of the
reserve fleet, has arranged to go to
Cadiz this evening, where, after his ar
rival, his squadron may move at any
moment.

Kingston, Jamaica, May 24.—A news
paper despatch-boat arrived here to-
night and reports that Commodore
Schley left Key West last Friday with
his squadron, consisting of the 'Massa
chusetts, the Texas, the Brooklyn and
the Scorpion.
Soon after the squadron sailed, the
battleship Iowa followed.
Sampson and his squadron remained
in the harbor.
It. was the impression of those on the
despatch-boat that he would sail for
Cienfuegos by' way of the Windward
Passage, Commodore Schley taking the
Yucatan Straits route.
The Iowa was overtaken on Saturday
off Cape San Antonio by the torpedo-
boat Dupont, with secret instructions.
The Iowa, when last seen, was guard

Pinos and Cuba.

From The Post’s War Correspondent.
Jacksonville, Fla., May 24.—It is re
ported in camp here tonight that the
senior colonel will be made a brigadier
general.
If this is true, our Col. Armfield will
receive the appointment on account of
seniority, etc., North Carolina is at the
very front, being the second State, in
having this regiment mustered in.
There is very little sickness in camp,
and the boys are in very good spirits
in contemplating the future.
We have not yet got down to regu
lar drill work here, but will begin it
tomorrow.
SPY AGAIN ARRESTED.
The Post’s readers remember the in
cident of the arrest of the supposed
Spanish spy at the camp in Raleigh
and his subsequent release and depart
ure.
Judge of our surprise today when the
same fellow turned up in our camp
here!
He has again been arrested, and a
thorough examination will be made
into his case.
There is evidently something wrong
with the fellow. But just why he
should attach himself to the camp of
the North Carolina boys is as yet an
unexplained mystery—a mystery which
we now expect to have cleared up,
however.
It is said that Spanish spies are very
numerous about here and in Tampa,
and there is a demand that the United
States Government deal more severely
with suspects hereafter.
By reference to The Post’s regular
Durham letter (to be found on page 3) it
will be seen that Private Colclough,
who was seriously hurt near Savannah,
has arrived at Durham and is now in
Watts’ Hospital there, and that the fu
neral of the soldier who was killed in
the railroad accident, Private W. M.
Barbee, occurred at Durham yester-
will move just as soon as the naval au
thorities can supply the necessary ships
to protect the transports, en route, and
aid by; heavy guns in effecting a land
ing for the troops.
That the United States intends to oc
cupy- and hold the Philippine Islands
there is no hngerany room for doubt
Maj. Gen. Merritt will have an armed
force of 35.000 men. He will take pos
session of Manila immediately unon hi c
arrival and proclaim martial law, as
is stated more fully and particularly in
The Post’s despatches today.
It would seem that any' determined
efforts to capture the Spanish fleet
must meet with success. It has been
moving around the Atlantic Ocean and
the Caribbean Sea ever since the 29th
I day of April, and its endeavors to se-
i cure coal, so far as the Navy Depart
ment is aware, been frustrated except
in a small degree. It has also been
noted with pleasure by th experts in
the department that the.average speed
of the Spanish squadron has not ex
ceeded on an average more than four
teen knots an hour. If this is the best
which the squadron can do, it cannot
I hope to escape its pursuers by speedy'
traveling, for the armored cruisers in
I Sampson’s and Schley’s united forces
can easily make fifteen or even sixteen
knots an hour.
1 ONLY 35,000 TROOPS READY TO IN
VADE CUBA AS YET.
By' Telegraph to The Morning Post.
Washington, May 24.—The govern
ment is still waiting for news of con
clusive action between American and
Spanish fleets before ordering troops to
be landed in Cuba.
As rapid progress as possible is being
made to equip the volunteers thorough
ly for field service, but it is doubtful if
more than 35,000 troops in the new army
are completely prepared for the cam
paign.
General Miles said today that the ad
ministration was ready to act as soon
as the proper time came, but that it was
desirable to take means to ensure the
greatest comfort and safety for soldiers
during the coming campaign.
A CUBAN EXPEDITION STARTS
FROM MOBILE.
By' Telegraph to The Morning Post.
Mobile, Ala., May 24.—The event of
the day here was the departure of the
transport Fanita, with seven car loads
of ammunition and 15,000 rifles.
There were on board of her Gen.
Rodriguez, his secretary, Senor San
chez, and two other Cubans, whose
names could not be learned.
Hei- destination could not be ascer
tained. It is surmised that the Fanita
will go to Key' West, and will there
meet another Cuban expedition before
trying to effect a landing in Cuba and
setting arms and ammunition to the
insurgents.
IT’S ON TO MANILA NOW.
By Telegraph to The. Morning Post.
Washington, May 24.—The War De
partment will follow up, as soon as pos
sible, the embarkation of troops from
San Francisco today with additional
detachments, destined to reach Manila
immediately after the first armed force.
Simultaneously with the receipt of
news today that three shiploads of
troops had embarked from the Pacific,
it was officially announced that the
Charleston would convoy the troops
from Honolulu to Manila.
The government has not the slightest
apprehension that Spain will be able to
inflict any damage on the expedition
between California and Hawaii, but it
is deemed best to avoid all chance of
danger for the rest of the journey.
It is estimated that the expedition will
reach Manila about June 15.
The government is now trying to se
cure several more ships, especially
those of the Northern Pacific Company,
to which American, register will prob
ably be granted by Congress
It is unlikely that any American ships
will have to be impressed.
THE BLOCKADE AT MANILA
Admiral Dewey is Instructed to Maintain
it Strictly.
By Telegraph to The Morning Post.
Washington, D. C., May 24.—Admiral
Dewey was cabled today that the
blocade at Malina must be conducted
on the same plan as the one at Ha
vana, respecting vesels of neutral
countries. This order permits all such
vessels to leave Manila within thirty
days from the time war was declared.
The admiral has been directed to per
mit American vessels laden with hemp
for this country to pass the blockade.
l he necessity for this commodity is
shown by the stringent market and the
great rise on the price of the article.
Manila is the principal port for the ex
port of hemp, and the absolute block
ade of the port means great hardships
to manufacturers in this country.
Secretary Gage today issued an or
der directing customs officers not to
grant clearances to merchant vessels
for Manila, as that port is blockaded.
By Telegraph to The Morning Post.
Washington, May 24.—The Spanish
fleet under Cervera is bottled up in the
harbor of Santiago de Cuba, without a
likelihood of escape.
The American ships guard the narrow
entrance to the harbor.
Definite information to that effect
was received at the Navy Department
this afternoon, -and while the officials
will not make a positive statement,
they -admit that Cervera has -been
caught.
“You may quote me as saying that
.we suppose the Spanish fleet is at San
tiago,” was Secretary Long’s guarded
remark to The Morning Post’s reporter
shortly after the official bulletin had
been issued denying rumors of an en
gagement in the Windward Passage.
The bulletin added, “The St. Louis
has cut the cable at San Juan.”
The Depoitment did not tell anything
else ie'.aii. - to the rival squadrons, al
though unquestionably it had definite
knowledge about them.
Meanwhile, where are Sampson and
Schley?
Hints were given today that no naval
engagement had taken place, because
the American fleet, whose exact posi
tion was known here, were not likely
to encounter the enemy.
But these may have been based on
mere rumors that the reported engage
ments had occurred in the Windward;
Pasage, and was not there yesterday. I

Foreign Affairs, which was offered to
and declined by Senor Castillo, the
Spanish Ambassador to France.
The Cabinet is now complete.
The accumulating by the Spanish
government of stores and troops in the
vicinity of Gibraltar continues.
This action seems to be prompted by
the profound suspicion of Great Britain,
which, it is believed, is preparing an ex
pedition of 7,000 men to seize Tangier
in the event of any power declaring
hostilities against her.
GEN. LEE STARTS FOR TAMPA.

yesterday as color-bearer.
A large crowd gathered at the sta
tion to see Gen. Lee off. Three cheers
were given for the general as the train

The inference to be drawn from the) ... .
guarded remarks of officials was that; * : •
no squadron had been sent to Santiago)
by that route, or else they had already
passed through it.
There is no reason to doubt that the
squadron of Sampson or Schley, or of
both, is now blockading the entrance
to Santiago.
Naval officers are wondering why
Cervera allowed himself to be caught,
for he has no chance to escape now.
The opinion almost general is that at
least one of cruisers was in such con
dition that it could not be repaired be
fore the American shins appeared, and
it is probable that the lack of repairing
facilities rather than lack of coal,
forced the Spanish admiral to remain.
Those who know Sampson are confi
dent that he will not wait for the 'en
emy’s force to come out of the harbor
nor compel submission by blockading
Santiago.
They are positive that if the enemy’s
ships can’t be reached by Sampson’s
guns, he will take his vessels into the
harbor and force a battle, despite the
narrow entrance, the forts and prob
ably mines and torpedoes.
The dynamiter Vesuvius may explode

SANTIAGO CHANNEL MINED.
T HE WIRES CUT ?
Some Doubt Expressed Whether the Cut

Three of the Wires.
By Telegraph to The Morning Post.
Washington, May 24.—The State, and
Navy Departments are very anxious to
learn whether the cutting of the sub
marine cable by the St. Louis and the
Wampatuck Wednesday last at Santi
ago extended to all the cables run
ning from that place.
They are very much afraid that only
one of the three means of telegraphic
communication has been severed.
Two cables run from Santiago to Ja
maica, while the third one goes to the
Haytien coast.
All three were enclosed in one tube
for a short distance and then they sep
arated.

curred beyond the ponit of separation,

Gen. Lee responded to calls and made

London, May 24.—A despatch from

The responsible statesmen of. Spain

Press Association, who has just re

General Wheeler, of Alabama, is hourly
beseeching the President to appoint
William J. Bryan, of Nebraska, to a
high position on his staff.
When any one suggested to a Span
iard that the forts might be shelled bv
the American warships at any time,
the almost invariable answer was:
“We are not concerned about possible
attacks upon us by Yankee ships. Let
them come, if they wish.
“As many of them 'as come, if they
come near enough to do any damage,
will be blown to Smithereens.
“The entrance to the harbor is nar

Washington, May 24.—The Navy De
partment recently issued an edition
of "Snow’s Naval Precedence,” a stand
ard work on naval usage in time of
peace and war. In this the doctrine on
the use of an enemy’s flag is stated as
follows:
"The regulations of the United
States navy state that the use of a for
eign flag to deceive an enemy is per
missible, but that it must be hauled
down before a gun is fired, and under
no circumstances is an action to be
commenced or an engagement fought
without the display of the national en
sign.”
The foregoing rule, both by regula
tion and by the text book distributed
to the navy, is a guide for all naval
officers. Practically the same rule is
applied to the use of an enemy’s uni
form.
The statement made by the Spanish
Minister of Interior that the govern
ment is likely to resort to privateering
does not cause any apprehension among
officials here. One of the highest au
thorities of the Navy Department said
Spain would adopt privateering if she
felt it to be to her interest, without
waiting for this country to give any
pretext for such action. It is felt, how
ever, that Great Britain, Germany and
France will have considerable to say in
case Spain resorted to privateering.
