Reports describe actions near Spain and America with ships seized or captured. A Spanish vessel Pedero was aided off Harris, and a Spanish warship Shunapdoab is claimed captured. The blockade of Cuba includes the flagship New Yorke with a squadron bound for Cuba and potential landings by U S forces.
Reports describe intense popular enthusiasm in Cuba as Governor General Vlavon appeals to Spanish relief efforts. Madrid and Barcelona see large anti American demonstrations and calls to resist invasion while Havana residents vow to stand firm. An American ambassador is attacked by Spaniards as tensions spike across Spain and amid scheduling disruptions on key railway lines.
