Key West, May B. This linrbor is

son's lleet has sailed, and the situation
is ono of renewed expectancy. There
is a strong Impression inevalllnf? that
the next news from the fleet will tell
of an Important encasement of the
same character as the Asiatic squad
ron's .Manila victory. Until then no in
teiestliiK developments aro expected
here, exrppt pin-slhly tho bringing In of

Where t he vessels have gone Is of
fically unannounced, hut surmise Is
plentiful and varied. The fact that the
big battleships and monitors coaled to
their fullest capacity before steaming
away is taken to Indicate a plan occu
pying considerable time. The belief
most generally eredlted is that the
fleet hus gone to protect the Oregon
from a possible attack by the Spanish
fleet, which recently left Cape Verde
and Is now unofficially reported to have
returned to Cadiz.
According to Captain Little, of the
fishing schooner Antonio y Pnco, cap
tured by the gunboat Newport n few
days auo, Havana Is on the verge of
famine. Pond Is bringing fabulous
prices, and the people are consequently
starving. Tin- soldiers are seizing
whatever provisions are accessible,
and citizens nre burying their food In
yards and cellars. "If I could have
slipped past the blockade," says Cap
tain Little, -my fish would have
