Permission Ornlitid Tor tho Lafayette to Pass llin Havana lllockiide. Key West, Kla., May 7. Tho Trench transatlantic mult atenmor Lafnyetto was captured on Thursday evening off Havana by the gunboat Annapolis, anil tho vessel wns escorted to Koy West yesterday by tho Wilmington. The Lafnyetto had previously boon warned not to enter Havana harbor, and making the second attempt was enptnred after a lively chase. Tho of ficers of the Lafnyetlo woro very In dignant, anil declared that the deten tion would bocome nn intormttional episode. Tho ground on which tha vessel woo captured was tho suspicion that she carried contraband of war. The authorities at Washington wore promptly comniutilnUd with, and Com modoro Watson recoived orders in stantly to 'release tho steamer and to send her to Havana under escort ol tho Wilmington. The capture of tho Frenchman turns out to have been an unfortunate incident, resulting frum mistake; but no protest has been mado by tho representative of tho French government in the United States. Tho officials here dcclaro that this will close tho affair. Tho facts hi tho caso are given in a statement issued from the White House lost night, as fol lows: Why tlio I.nlh.vuttu Wim ltolont;il. "Tho Lafayette wns released in pur suance of orders which woro isued by tho navy department previously to her seizure, hut which had not been re ceived by tho commanding oflloors of the vessels that mado tlio capture. On April 29 tho French embassy mado nn informal inquiry as to whether tho Lafayette, wliich left Saint Nnzairo Franco, for Vera Cruz, by way of Ha vana, before war was declared or in formation of tho hlockado recoived, would bo allowou to land at Havana certain passengers, nor mall bags nnd the dispatch bag of tho consulate general of Franco and to tako some French passengers on board. An as surance was given, if this privilege should he granted, that the steamer would be forbidden by tho French con sul to land goods. "Tho mutter was duly considered and It was decided that without regard to tho strict law of blockade and as an act of courtesy, tho request of the French government should bo acceded to. Ordors were accordingly sent on the second day of May. When infor mation was received of tho capturo ot tho steamer and of her having been brought to Key West, these orders wero communicated to the captors, with Instructions to release tho steam er and to seo that tho orders were duly delivered, so that thoy might bo carried into effect. No demand was mado either by or on behalf of tho French government, directly or Indi rectly, for tho steamer's release." Tho l.nmyuttu'H I'nsNunjrorH. Of tho 1G8 passengers on board tho Lafnyetto 78 nre for Havana, nearly all being young Spaniards, who say they aro going to Cuba to engage in mercantllo pursuits. When surprise was displayed that such wns thoir mis sion nt this time thoy merely shrugged their shoulders and vouchsafed no further explanation. One Cuban was aboard, who was returning to Join tho insurgent army. Ho was banished from tho island seven months ago, but came within tho terms of Gonerni Blanco's armistice just before tho war begun. He was overjoyed when told that ho would bo tnlten with tho regu lar United States troops when thoy moved. The local junta took him In chargo and he loft for Tampa last night. The United States authorities who examined Hio Lafayette say thnt so far ns tho sMp's manifest shows, sho carries no contraband of war, but with Buch an immense cargo it was Impos sible to mnlco a thorough Inspection. They saw nothing In tho nature of arms or ammunition on board. Her release constitutes the first official act of Commodore Wntson in his now com mand of this division of Admiral Sampson's fleet.
