points almost simultaneously from three
different vessels. Besides this, In the same
time, four other vessels took thousands of
guns and macheies and countless cart
ridges safely to Cuba, and these stores are
now in the hands of the revolutionists.
This is the way we answer Gen. Weylers
proclamations He may continue his ex-
alted course of butchering prisoners in the
plaza Of the Morro and directing his brave
legions to massacre defenseless women AMI
old and decrepit men, but he dares not
show his nose outside Of Havana. Matan-
zas is two hours from Havana by railroad,

why did say we had no trouble in land
ing stores and ammunition? Why, my dear
sir, the Spanish gunboats are like the Span
ish general in chief-they take good care
to stay within the safe protection Of a
fortified port.
The Coming Elections.
Gen. Weyler's troubles, however, are not
confined to the Insurgents nor to the sub
ordinate Spanish generals, of whom no less
than fifty have left the island in disgust
since the beginning of the war. The farce
of holding an election in time of war and
when all the island is under martial law
will be enacted on the 18th of April. Only
the rabid Spanish population will take part
in this election. The reform party and the
home rule party have both decided to have
nothing to do with it. We have just re-
ceived the declarations of these parties to
this effect. The home rule party declare
that the perturbation now in progress in
the island has rot lessened in extent and
Importance, and that therefore they de-
clare against holding elections at time
when the conditions make 1t impossible to
faithfully express the opinion of the cleo
toral body. This Is from the home rule
central committee. OF course, the Amer
lean people may expect to hear after the
election a resounding declaration from Gen.
Weuler to the effect that the Cuban people
are unanimous in favor of Spain, but
hardly think any intelligent person will
place any reliance in such representations
Sure of Ultimate Success.
There has been no d.ninution in the
patriotism and loyalty to our cause on the
part of any of our people," said Quesada,
proudly, in conclusion. I'VE are just as
certain now as it is possible for men to be
of the ultimate success Of our efforts.
Spain stands aghast at our resources.
While she is pleading with all her sisters
in the family of nations for money and
begging on her knees at the doors Of every
European pawnshop, the poor Cubans are
making no requests, save those Of moral
character. All we ask is fair treatment, an
honorable and equitable recognition of our
rights as men VINO are struggling for the
precious boon OF self-government When
Spain imagines We have exhausted all our
finances, we confront her with the sub
stahtial proofs of q replenished treasury"

Gambling Raids.

Saturday night the police of the sixth

poker games in full blast were found, there
were eighteen men in the two rooms, and
the men who were conducting the games
were arrested. One raid was made at No.
45G G street, in the house adjoining the
Metropolitan Church. This place had been
complained of several times and the DO

ago annoyed the churcn peop.e. William L.
Conw az was in charge of this game.
Joseph F. Moore was conducting the other
game at No. 337 Pennsylvania avenue, In
the Martin House. There was a big game
in progress there, but the players managed
to get most of the money from the table
Today they appeared in the Police Court
and pleas Of guilty were entered.
1t was their first arrest, so the police said
and Judge Miller fined them SIS and gave
them one day in jail.

OF lines imposed for bad service, the con-

ing further relief by having all fines i'm

THE LOCKS AND The RAILROAD

The Dalles Chronicle has dispatch
from Hon. w. R. Ellis which says that
the senate resolution appropriating $780,
600 for immediate use at the Cascad e
locks has just passed the house. AS the
bill has passed both houses, all that
now remains is the presidents sigma
ture, which in this case is only matter
of form. The whole amount will thus
be at once available, and it is supposed
that it will be used in completing the
works. If it is SO expended there is no
reason for delaying the opening later
than the middle of May at the farthest.
AS soon as the walls are somewhat above
the water the canal could be used with
out danger. Work ut present is almost
suspended as the riprapping is about
finished and the water is too high for
the dredger TO work. But there is no
use 10 speculate on the opening of the

THE GREcIAN GAMES.

The attention of lovers of ancient
history is centered upon Greece
where a revival of the Olympic
games, so famous in the days when
Hellas was the world, has been in
stituted. Not only to the student,
but to the desultory reader of his.
tory, this event is of surprising in
terest.
Greece still charms the world with
stories of her past. Her hills and
valleys, her cities and groves, are
sacred places, hallowed by the pres
ence of men who, honored in their
day, still receive the homage of
countless admirers. Greece is but
a memory now, but memory that
will linger as long as the clear blue
sky that inspired the poets of olden
times, stretches across the Mediterra-
mean.
The Olympic games which today
are being celebrated in classic lands
will bring to mind the departed
glories of a wonderful civilization.
In the contrast which the revived
games of 1896 will make with those
of ancient days, renowned in story,
no point is more vivid than that
made by the part, though small,
taken by the American contestants.
Imagination pictures the contest of
thousand years before our era, and
how from sculptured story every de-
tail of costume will be faithfully
reproduced by the committee of ar
rangements. But who are these

and of Corinth to claim right to
