Com mod ore Dewey Has Orders from Wash ington to Act at Once—Spain's Fleet Sup posed to he in Hiding at Manila—General Agulnaldo, the luHiirgent President, Has Sailed for Singapore to Take Charge of Affairs. Hong Kong, China, April 27.—The guns of America's Asiatic squadron will soon be thundering in the harbor of Manila, the capital of the Philippine Islands. The last of the fleet sails to-night from Hongkong. Commodore Dewey lias orders from Washington to capture or destroy the Spanish fleet. Unless Spain's warsliipsare in hiding, the fighting will begin at or near the Philippine Islands, and the time is only a matter of hours—perhaps by Sun day. COM MO nous; DKWEV. General Aguinaldo, the President, of the Philippine insurgents, has sailed from Sin gapore, where ho has been in exile, with the members of his Cabinet. They char tered their own steamship. They will land at a convenient point on the islands, and the General with put himself at the head of an army of .'IO,OOO well-equipped insur gents now gathered together and waiting for him. The General will lead this large force to attack Manila by land while the American warships bombard the city from the sea. The movements of that army in terest Commodore Dewey and command his s) mpathy, but he lias given the insur gents no official aid or encouragement. Nevertheless the two forces will co-ope rate in fact, and should prove more than a match for the Spaniards. Consul Williams arrived to-day from Manila on the steamship Esmeralda. He was taken immediately to the flagship Olympia at Mirs Bay. The Consul will ac company the fleet back to Manila. He has full information, it is believed, regarding ing the fortifications at Manila and else where on the Philippines, and also regard ing tho location of mines and torpedoes planted in the harbors. The Spanish ships are awaiting attack in Manila harbor, it is supposed, under the protection of the land fortifications. The United States squadron consists of the protected cruisers Olympia (flagship), Baltimore, Boston and Raleigh; the gun boats Concord, Petrel and McOullough, and the transports Zaflro and Manshan. The coal bunkers of the ships are all tilled and the transports carry 4,00 D tons be sides. The squadron is provisioned for six months. New Strategy Hoard Appointed. Washington, D.

S. Crowinshield, chief of the Bureau of Navigation; Captain A. S. Barker and Commander Richardson Clover, chief of the office of Naval Intelligence. Rear Admiral Walker, retired, and Captain C. A. Goodrich, have been retired from duty as members of the Board. Admiral Walker will probably be retained on duty at the Department in an advisory capacity. Captain Goodrich will command the auxil iary cruiser St. Louis. The Board is the most important in Washington, as on it devolves the preparation of all var plans, offensive and defensive. Will Illow Up Havana. New York, N. Y.—Dr. Gonzalo Aros tequi, of Havana, says the Spanish will never leave that city standing if they are compelled to evacuate Cuba. "The entire city is undermined," he said, "and there has been no effort to conceal this fact in the Cuban capital. The placing of the ex plosives have been done during the past few weeks, and the Spanish openly assert that if Havana is taken by the United States they need only to touch a button and the city will be blown from the face of the earth. * The Winona Captures the Saturnlna.

An Infernal Machine Sent to the White j House—Guard* Doubled. Washington, 1). C.—An infernal ma chine was sent to the President. Fortu nately its character was suspected and measures taken to prevent its explosion. The incident was carefully concealed, and all efforts are being made to capture the sender. There was nothing to suggest from whom it caiue and no clue was af forded to the man who sent it. The ma chine was enclosed in a harmless-looking cigar box. An ingenius contrivance had been arranged so that when the lid of the box was opened there would be a flash of powder which would explode a stick of giant powder sufficient to blow a man to atoms. As a result of this incident additional measures were taken to guard the Execu tive Mansion. The police force was doubled and it is expected that a detail from the District militia will form an additional out side guard to the approaches to the White House Grounds. SUMMARY OF THE NEWS. Governor Black has approved an amend ment to the State civil service regulations providing that where a State employee's separation from the state service is caused by an enlistment in or acceptance of any office in the active military or naval service of the country, the period during which re instatement may be made shall be without limit. Mrs. Nellie Grant Sartoris, daughter of General Grant, wants restoration to Ameri can citizenship, which she forfeited by her marriage to a British subject. She is now living in Washington, and representative Pearson, of North Carolim, has introduced a joint resolution to readmit her to her former character. The Mangrove sailed from Key West and headed south, equipped as a cable ship. Her destination is said to be south of Cuba, and her object to destroy submarine cables. It is believed she will be convoyed by one or more warships and will cut off cable communication between Havana and Madrid. Joseph Leiter, who has kept the wheat pit in a whirl of excitemeut for the past six months and who is credited with having cleared #2,000,000 at least by his bold operations, thinks he has earned a vaca tion and will soon start on an extended trip abroad. It was reported from Honolulu that the Cnited States would take possession of Hawaii, inquiry at the Navy Department led to the belief that the story is exagger ated, and that a coaling station will simply be established there. The members of the Michigan National Guard have been called out for service. This is the first call upon Si ate troops is sued. and is in accordance with a promise made by Secretary Alger to the Michigan State troops. Ambassador Hay, in a speech at an offi cial banquet in London, declared that ir resistible ties bound England and America together in the serious work of the world and nothing could separate them. The revenue and bond bill has been finished, and will be submitted to the Ways and Means Committee this week. It is es timated that it will raise between $95,000,- 000 and #100,000,000 a year. ltichard (Toker sailed for England at 8 o'clock Saturday morning, after a stay in this country of about nine months, in which he has re-established himself as ab solute master of Tammany, About 4,000 troops arrived at the camp, commanded by General Wade, at Tampa Fla. At Chickamauga Park the force un der General Brooke has increased to nearly 10,000 men. At a meeting of the Republican members of the Spanish Cortes It was agreed to join hi granting the Government whatever measures may be necessary for war. Reports from Madrid indicate bitter dis content with the Sagasta Ministry among leading politicians, who say the Govern ment failed to prepare for war. Just iu the nick of time, and just when she may be most needed, the Holland sub marine boat has proved herself to be a ter rible engine of naval warfare. Algernon Sartoris, grandson of General Grant, went to Richmond and made appli cation to General Fitzlnigh Lee for a place on his staff in the war. Governor Atkinson, of Georgia, an nounced that if he had to order out the State troops for war he would lead them iu the field himself. The gunboat Nashville captured the Spanish merchant steamer Buena Ventura off Key West and made her the first prize of the war. Rear Admiral Aaron K. Hughes, who retired in 1884, and who is now seventy six years of age, has offered his services for active duty. Secretary Long has asked Congress for authority to enlist as many men as may be necessary to form the Unted States auxil iary force. George Zierdt, well-known as an ex constable of Hazleton and a veteran who had a good war record, died on Thurs day, aged 50 years. Educate Your Howie* With Cancaretn.

Rowan Speaks Spanish and Knows tlie Island Thoroughly—Would l>e Treated as a Spy. Kingston, Jamaica, April 27.—General Calixto Garcia, commanding the Cuban forces in the eastern end of the island, is now in lull possession of the United States military plan of campaign. He received his information from Lieut. Alexander S. Rowan, of the Nineteenth United States infantry, who lias succeeded in landing 011 the coast of Cuba and reach ing the insurgent forces. Lieut. Rowan was ordered by tiie Secret Service Bureau to go 011 a secret mission in behalf of the War Department tion was Porto Rico. Then definite or ders were issued for him to proceed to Jamaica, and thence across to Cuba and endeavor to reach General Calixto Garcia's camp, to communicate to the General tiie plans of the United States Government. He was also to ask the rebel leader to make arrangements for effecting a junction of the insurgents in Southeastern Cuba with a probable American expedition. . Lieut. Rowan was told to obtain infor mation of the character of the country, and to make maps and plans for the use of the Information Bureau as soon as lie made a landing. He sailed from Jamaica on the Atlas steamer, and reached Kingston April 15. lie put himself at once in communication with Mr. Dent, the United States Consul here, and endeavbred to cross over. Eventually an expedition was organized through the Cuban Junta, with expert pilot and guides, Lieut. Rowan left Stanns Bay on April 24, at 2 o'clock in the morn ing. He started with a good breeze and reached Cuba last Monday morning. His mission is one of great danger, ai d if captured he would be treated as a spy. The greatest precautions were exercised here to conceal his mission. Rowan is an expert cartographer and well acquainted with Cuba. As be went to Eastern Cuba, it is in ferred that a blow will be struck there be fore one is struck at Porto Rico. With him he took an official Spanish map of Eastern Cuba, with emendations made by the War Department hydrographers. It is expected that General Garcia will cover a landing of the United States troops. SUPPLIES FOR GOMEZ. To He Delivered to Him in I'ersou By Uncle Sam. Washington, 1). C.—Arrangements have been completed by the Government to sup ply the Cuban insurgents with arms and ammunition. Preparations are now being made to land in Cuba from 25,000 to .'0, • 000 stand of improved Springfield rifles, a number of artillery butteries, rapid-fire Maxim guns and an abundance of ammu nition for the effective use of them. It is understood that the Government will not deliver the arms to any person but General Gomez in person, and he will as a guarantee of good faith receive them. General Miles believes that if the insur gents are properly armed and supplied with the artillery they have so long needed, they can do more effective work and render the American troops invaluable aid in driving the Spaniards from the island. Steamer I'uuama Taken ly I lie Mangrove. Key West, Fla.—The big Spanish steam er Panama was brought into port a prize by the lighthouse tender Mangrove, She was captured trying to run the blockade with out sidelights. The Panama left New York April 20 heavily laden with bacon, hams, flour and other food supplies, hay, milling machines, etc. She is a valuable prize. The big steamer is four times the size of the Mangrove, is a transatlantic liner and an auxiliary cruiser. She carried two 12- poumlers and a crew of seventy-two men, and might have annihilated the little ten der. But she made not the slightest re sistance. Starvation i Imminent in Hnvann. Key West, Fla. Havana is completely out of beef, although largo shipments are expected from Mexico. All necessaries of life have gone up to prices never heard of, and if something is not done soon many will perish of hunger. Families of means have stored large supplies of food in their houses. Blanco Telln .Spain He Need* No Help. Havana, Cuba.—('aptain-General Blan co has cabled to the government in Madrid to the effect that the Spanish squadron of war ships can be utilized elsewhere, as he can account for the defence of Havana without the assistance of the deet. Revolt Threatened In l'orto Rico. St Thomas, West Indies.—Seven Porto Rican refugees, who have arrived on the schooner Equilante, report that Porto Rico is suffering from famine. Americans are in danger there, and have no protection, in San Juan a revolution is threatened. Homers Can't Leave While War is On. London, Eng.—The Government has no tified Acting Ensign Hnzelton that the tor pedo boat Somers cannot leave Faluiouub while a state of war exists. w Spain's Fleet Ilan Sailed. Washington, D. C.—The Spanish deet is reported to have sailed from the Cape Verde Islands. Spain's dying squadron and that of the United States are, as is ad mitted by the officers of the later, evenly matched. It has been greatly strengthened by the addition of a line battleship and a (cruiser. The deet of the United States at Key West is far superior to tiie one which | Spain has brought together to defend her home ports. The Key West deet is kept for offensive work at Cuban ports. The dying squadrons may meet somewhere near l'orto Rico. ?\£ ■ 1 i// yu% 1 5 /"ll: V? * I | ! ii '? Q r vi ; < jS *,a ° ,1 \ \-v, \i£ - RFI* . MAP SHOWING ROUTE OF SPANISH FLEET.
