Cadiz Fleet Going Special tu Kvkmnm Hf.hm.ii. Wiisliiiicton, .luiio 27. President Mc.Kliiluy mid Ids udvii-er.s are re Iuriii to inaugurate an aygreKsivo caiuiaiu uniiist Spain, and tlio operations will not be confined to Spanish possessions on tliis side of tlio Atlantic!. The war is to lie car ried to the seaports on the Spanish coast. It was oillcially announced to day at the navy department that Coin- nodore Watson, now in command of the blockading squadron oil' Havana and the northern coast of Cuba, would sail to-day to join Hear Ad miral Sampson otr Santiago. When he arrives there the contemplated Hying squadron will be formed at nice and proceed without further delay for the Spanish coast. The squadron will be composed of the fastest armor-chid vessels and cruisers u the American navy, and will be the most formidable array of lighting ships ever formed by any nation. The government officials several days ago completed their plans for the formation of the new "flying squadron," and only awaited definite lews as to the destination of the Cadiz fleet to put these plans into operation. Now that it is known that Admiral Camara's squadron is at the entrance of the Sue, canal, and that they have been refused coal at Port Said, there is now no good rea son for further delay. The vessels that comprise Admiral Camara's fleet are the Pelayo, Um purado Carlos V., Osado, Audaz, Proserpina and the transports Patri- oto, Buenos Aires, Isle de Panay, Colon, Covadongo, Hapido and San Francisco. It is reported that four more vessels will join them. The orders issued to Commodore Watson to proceed to Santiago, is looked upon as indicating that naval officials expect our troops to capture that cit within the next day or two, and then will come the destruction or capture of Cervom's lleet now bottled up in the harbor. Our fast and formidable battleships and oruisors heading for Spain's homo ports will probably result in Spain recalling Admiral Camara's lleet, now heading for the Philip pines, for the protection of her own coast. Madrid, June 27. Tlio Spanish au thorities are preparing to meet the American threat to send a lleet to the Peninsula, and preparations are being made to strengthen the coast defences. Lights at tlio principal ports are extinguished, torpedos are being prepared and additional guns have been mounted. It is believed a third lleet is being formed at Cadiz.

Jurngua, Cuba, via Kingston, Ja maica, June 27. Troops of the United States and Spain are almost face to face and less than four miles apart. The picket lines at certain points nra within hulling distance of the enemy. It seems certain that the battlo of San tiago must come within a week. The troops were all ashore here and at Daiquiri, with the exception of n few scattered companies that have gono forward. The supplies are suf ficient to enable tho army to sustain a week's campaign at both landing points. Tho landing of troops, horses and supplies lias been extraordinary. With only one tteam barge, nnd compelled to depend on treacherous and small boats, General Slmftor has landed over 10,000 men, hundreds of horses and mules and thousands of dollars' worth of supplies on tho exposed beaches, and only two men have lost their lives. No more than CO animals havo been drowned, and scarcely a packago of supplies has been lost. Tho Initial fight of Colonel Wood's rough riders and the troopers of tho First and Tenth regular cavalry wll' be known In history as tho battle of La Quuslna. That It did not end In the complete slaughter of tho Ameri cans was not duo to any miscalcula tion In the plan of the Spaniards, for nsKCtfect an ambuscade as was ever formed in tho brain of an Apacho Indian was prepared, and Lieutenant Colonel Itoosovelt nnd his men walked squarely into It. For an hour and a hair they hold their ground undor a perfect storm of bullets from tho front and sides, and then Colonel Wood at the right nnd Lieutenant Colonol Roosevelt at tho left led n chargo which turned tho tldo of bat tle and sent the enemy flying over the hills toward Santiago. It Is now definitely known that 10 men on tho American side were killed whilo 00 wore wounded or nro reported to bo missing. It is Impossible to cal culato tho Spanish losses, but It is known that thoy were far heavier than those of Americans, at least as regards actual loss of lifo. Already 37 dead Spanish soldiers have been found and hurled, while many others are un doubtedly lying In tho thick undor- brush on the side of tho gully, and on tho slopo of the hill, where tlio main body of tho enemy was located. Thq wounded wore all removed. A comploto list of tho American killed, revised to 1 o'clock Saturday, Is as follows: Captain Allyn K.
