New York March SI Tho Tribunes
Washington correspondent says The de-
parture from Spain of an armored flying
squadron Including Hie two heaviest fa t
cruisers and Iho most formidable torpedo
gunboat In home waters Is considered a
crlous inenaen to the American fleet ut
Iey West and one that tho United Sln et
can not Ignore longer than n few days
when the doitluatlons ot these vessel
may become positively known The Infor-
mation that tho fleet had sailed from Car
tngena this morning came Iu cipher from
Minister Woodrord who secured It torn
ngcncles of he legation ul movements Of
vessels having been ordered retained rem
the public by ho Spanish government
After these vessels pa s Gibraltar Jt will
be definitely known wligrn twentyfour
hours whether Ihey are haunt fur Call
or the Canaries for l l not conceived at
this time that they will take straight-
away westerly course although heir enor
mbus steaming radlvu tinequnlrd Jn the
Annrlenn navy might enable hem to
reach nuy Atlantic port on the American
continent without slopping for coal
Tho American flylns squadron nt Uimp
tou Uoad Is unprepared to meet this
fijlug squadron on tho high seas nor can
auxiliary cruisers expect to turn It back
Ms flagship the Crlstphal Colon Is also
match for cither tho Now York or Ilroak

According to Iho traditional policy of Spanish diplomacy more delay Is requested and milch evasion Is shown One of
tho reasons for asldnc for further time H iho fact tlint the mlnlfctry can not act without tha ratirici Ion of the cones
which Is not now In session Counter propositions are nlrn tugsssted rnthcr than plainly stntjd which look to tho side-

Kitting lodny but It begun Its work villi
lbs deliberation of r bo iy whteh feels tlmt
It hns ample time for all that Is to be done
The general question of tho Cuban situa-
tion wns tjlken up Immediately and c3p
olnl attention wnu given to tbo proposition
to purclinse the Danlsii InlAtirla ot St
Thoiruiri Tho committee ntllournb1 Ohurt
IV after 12 oclock unlll tomouow Tho
committee dare not expect to attempt to
mnlcc a rooort until Mtrndny nn the Cubtli
must Ion ns It will vnlt nbsolutoly upon
iho pycsldenln wlnhcs until thnt line The
committee s iirrcccdlus In perfect harmony
fllh tho president
The president has told Spain In bo many
vHTtlfi that It la useless to go further upon
any other undcrslaiidliig
Willi Ihls end ti vlow conceded by Spain
ho will not attempt to dictate tho terms
nr tbo manner of conducting nogotlntlons
between tbo Spaniard nnd the Cubaim nnd
he lies Indicated lo Spain that ho will bo
willing that an nrnilstbo shall ba arranged
It h the dislro not to put tbo mutter 33
luirshly as to prick tbo national iirldo of
the Spanish people but il tho snmn tlmo
to put It so plainly that there can he no
doubt of tho ono tfijoiillal consideration
Having this before them the committee Is
uraccedltig deliberately and with no tlcslro
lo press the question until It la necessary
Captain Slgsbco of the Maine mid Cap
lain Darker Secretary Longs naval aide
who went to Key West after tho explosion
ra bobnlt of Iho dcpirlment were bsforo
iho cnmmlltco for in hour nt thu nftcr
nccn torsion Doth worn oxnmlncd Iu re-
gard to tbo condition and strength of our
navy fiom the vicinity of Havana ami Oap
laln Slgsbco wan questioned as to bis opin-
ion and Knowledge of the Mnlue disaster
Hlit nlory was nH materially different from
but detailed lo the nnva court of Inquiry
but the fact that it wn given personally
to tho membcis of the committee nnd In-
cluded personal deductions made a vlal
blo Imprcaslon upon the mcnibera Captain
Slgsbco did not express In no ninny words
that the disaster web the rcwult of treach-
ery upon the part of Spaniards but after
the hearing one of its rncmbcru expressed
IIn belief Hiat tho eiploslou wns due to
that agency
Tho purpose In tiMng the testimony of
thC3o ofllccrn Is to Incorporate their utite
ineiitH In a report the committee will malic
In euro It finds It necessary to report a
resolution for Intervention This report
will bo In I lie nature of a statement to tho
eotintiv jfi lfylng the position tahrn and
it Ip considered desirable to support this
with an array of pertinent facts which will
go far to convince tho American people
and tho idyllized world of tho Justice ot
the courr taken
When the report which was circulated
during U c ufleruouii lo tho cffctit tint
fi uln had requested that the propoauls
of tha United Stnlcs lie brought to the at-
tention of tho committee Senator Davlrt
went to tho scnato chairman and asked
that thoro should bu an adjournment Tho
commlttco might bring In Its repart to-
morrow It was staled later however
that the committee had not changed Us
plnns nnd Unit it probably would wait upon
ho president til least until Monday if ho
bad so desired There is no doubt tlmt tho
commltteo Is preparer lo report very
speedily In case It should fcjl called upon
to do bo Thcio ban bfan no poll ot the
committee on the formulation of a resolu-
tion but tliero has ben a very general
fNprrtsion of views This expression baa
