THE SPANISH ELECTIONS.
Republicans Very Strong in the Cities
A Protectionist Victory.

MADRID Feb. 4-The feature of Sundays
election was the great strength of the Re-
publican vote in towns. Several great
towns returned Republicans by large ma
lorities, although Madrid, Barcelona, Sar-
agossa, Seville and Cadiz returned Con-
servatives. The votes obtained by the two
Iival Republican sections would have suf-
need, if combined, to defeat the Monarch

votes than the Liberals, in spite of the alb

A boat has arrived with = crew who art

YUMA, Ariz , July THE water which

Saturday, driving out the laborers, now
covers an area Of 10 miles square, 3 to

from the railroad to the salt works is gone.
The mines are flooded. Indian Wells, go
miles south, is 221 feet shove Sslton a1d
for 40 miles square the wster is from three

Sugar Makiog ia Cuba.

NEw ORLEANS, July 2 The Picayune' :
HsysnA speeisi Gays: The recent rains
have capsed planters TO stop grinding cane,
aud our sugar mAkiag season Is passed,
Notwithstanding tha; there remains in tie
fields sufficient cane to have made st least
1000 hcgshesds of sugar, which will have
to re main until November before il can Be
utilized. Ia sscsn. trip TO Msispzis and
back | saw only one estate st work, and
this also has uov stopped sugar making.
The cane helds are looking fine, giving
promise Of gopd crop for Bext season,
and the large central plantations are max
ing arrangements to increase their products
By planting more cane and pu!tiog up new
machinery.
While all this is going on. every ore is in
doubt rs To what efses the new treaty with
the United States will have should it go
into effect, as it has not ye. been signed by
the Spanish government. Many think it
will never be signed until ample provision
in soma way has been provided for the loss
Of revenues which will ensue. Rumors of
new tax to be imposed upon the already
overbufdened agricultural industries alarm
those vhoee capital is occupied in this busi'
ness. and all classes Of manufacturers are
fearing that their interests will suffer.
Many importers are doing very little bust
ness, waiting TO see the new treaty in force.
The sugar market is very cuist, owing to
the high pretension, Of those 10 are hold
ing large stocks on specr on. Some
large vessels have lately bee ;aded as the
ridiculously low freight Of & ents per 100
pounds for sugar in bags for north Of
Hstteras. The stock Of sugar at all the
coast ports is much greater than that Of
last year, and there is little hope for higher
prices.
The government officials, sided by the
soldiers stationed along the lines Of cur
principal railroads, have been actively en-
gagged in The search for ihe outlaws which
continue to infest the country and have
succeeded in capturing qaite number,
who will suffer the penalty Of death
in due time. II appears very strange to see
every railroad car with guard Of soldiers
fully armed, and as the train rushes along
to pass, at regular intervals, soldiers STA
toned slong The line. Notwithstanding 6
frequent arrests and the execution of a
number Of these outlaws, the business of
robbing and killing people in this Country
continues, and people who would prefer
living out Of The city dare not expose them
selves and their property to the acts OF the
brigauds.
Tire summer is passing Pleasantly with
70 signs Of cyclonic troubles, aud the
health of Havana continues excellent.

sent to the Pensacola, now at Calloa, to re-
turn to the United States and repair at the
Mare Islsnd, CAL. Nsvy-yard. Admiral
McCann, who is the commsnder-in-chiefo OF
the South Atlantic Station, will also come
to the United States by steamer. The cause
for the order is said TO be the necessity for
repairing the Pensacola, one of the old
wooden ships, and the need for the ser
vices of one of the two sdmirals, now in
the Sorth Pacific, elsewhere.
When the Chilian rebellion broke out,
Admiral Mccain Was with his command on

orders from the navy department, he
hastened around Cape Horn with his dag
