NAVY FOR CUBANS.

In urgenss I:uv . Vessel and Have IL
Fit,e.! Out A. y Wa ship
PHILADELPHIA. July 30. The Press
publishes the following: . By Tuesday
or Wednesday OF this week there will
be in Cuban waters the largest expedi-
ton FROM this country that has yet
left. 1t will be under the command of
General Enrique Collazo, who arrived
In this country about July q and since
has been preparing for this expedition.
The ship is fitted out as q war vessel
and is capable of q speed of II knots an
hour. and has made ID. About 10 days
ago a trial trip was made off Sandy
Hook. She was at once accepted and
the money paid over. Clearance pa.
pers were obtained and the vessel put
out to sea. A contingent Of about %
loyal Cubans, skilled shipwrights and
experienced men-of- warsmen, were
shipped on another vessel and trans.
ferred to her
On the High Seas.
Rapid firing foul and six-inch guns were
purchased, and these, with two gatling
guns, were sent out in the same vessel,
and by the time the boat reaches Cuban
waters she will have quite a formidable
battery in position.
What is needed more than anything
else by the insurgents is said to be
aboard the vessel. There is said to
have been loaded from this city 3 1000
Remington rifles and SO, 600 pounds of
ammunition. The rifles and ammuni-
ton are sad to have been shipped to
this city by the manufacturers, or
rather to a point near this city and
loaded on vessels at points down the
river and bay. They were then carried
out on the high seas and then trans
ferred to the vessel purchased by the
insurgents. Everything was completed
for sailing on Saturday night, and the
vessel is now believed to be on it's way
to Cnba.

o proof to that already existing
that he was an accomplice Of the arch
murderer and fully cognizant Of most,
il not all, of his deeds.
The name Of Milford c. Cole, for.
merly Of Baltimore, was also added to

Rev. e. X. D"nshue Discusses the Chinese
Missionary Problem.
'~P1rTsBURG, July 3O.-Rev. E. r.
Donahue, pastor Of the Eighth Presby.
terrain church of this city, and who has
been identified with Chinese mission
work for years, in an interview, says
that he believes the efforts t o onvert
Chinese from paganism is futile. he
says that although the Cinnamon go to
Sunday school and seem to take an in.
terest in the Christian religion and
even profess Christianity yet they
cling to their heather ideas and cere.
monies. Rev. Donahue is looked upon
a. the leader and adviser Of the resi-
dent Chinese and went to Washington
in their interest when the Geary law
was first enforced.
Rev. Donahue's opinion has been
formed only after years OF study OF the
Chinese. He does not intend to give
up the missionary work in this line.
for he believes that while the Chinese
cannot be converted to Christianity.
they can be raised to . higher social
level by religious influences.
