The second USS Rodgers (Torpedo Boat No. 4/TB-4/Coast Torpedo Boat No. 2) was an United States Navy torpedo boat, laid down by the Columbian Iron Works & Dry Dock Co., Baltimore, Maryland, 6 May 1896; launched 10 November 1896; and commissioned 2 April 1898, Lt. J. L. Jayne in command. Fitted out at Norfolk, Virginia, Rodgers began training in Chesapeake Bay in mid-April. On April 24, the United States Congress declared war on Spain and five days later the torpedo boat got underway for the Caribbean. Arriving at Key West 9 May, she joined the blockading vessels off Havana on the 21st; remained with them through the 23d; then sailed to join the fleet cruising off the north coast of Cuba to prevent the Spanish fleet from reaching the blockaded city from the east.
