Santiago de Cuba and Havana there are Spanish censors of all dispatches, who ex- ercise not only only vigilance, but undoubt- edly flavor what is allowed to be trans- mitted with a strong Castilian tinge. The American censors at Key West and New York also take good care that messages which do not meet official approval are suppressed. The means by which information comes from the West Indies by wire are nume ous. There are four lines from Porto Rico, all under control of Spanish censors. The West India and Panama Cable Company's cable crosses the islands, one line extend- ing from San Juan, on the north coast, and the other from Ponce, on the south coast, both running to Kingston, Jamatca. From Kingston the line of the Direct West India Cable Company go Turk’s Island and Bermud: whence the Commercial ¢ y nd cable lines afford communication ew York. are also double cables of the Cuba Telegraph Company iago de Cuba, thence to C! to Batabano and then across land to Havana. From Havana to Key West there are cables, which also four Western Union land at Punta a, Where the land lines to New York begin. The other two lines of the West India and Panama Cable Company leave Porto Rico from San Juan and Ponce and ex- tend to St. Thomas, whence a single cable runs through the Lesser Antilles to Mar- tinique and on down to ‘Trinidad and South American points. The French West Indies Cable Company can take a message at Martinique and send it to Porto Plata, Hayti, thence to Cape Haytien and on by several loops to Santiago de Cuba, where it can be taken by the Cuba Submarine Telegraph Company; or at Cape Haytien the United Si and Hayti Telegraph and Cable Company can take the message and send it by Its direct line to New York. All messages coming from Porto Rico now have to pass the Spanish censor at San Juan or Ponce; but from St. Thomas messages can be sent by using the lines of three different companies, at heavy ex- pense, by way of Martinique and Hayti, to ork, and here they will come under » scrutiny of the American censor who nds guard at the New York end of the line, at No. 17 William street. Upon the capture of Porto Rico the cable lines will fall into the hands of the United States, and Rear Admiral Sampson wiil be able to report to Washington either by way of Jamaica and Halifax or by way of Mar- Unique and Hayti.
