Concentration of Troops ut Tampa.

Tampa, Fla, May 3.-Eleven regi-
ments of infantry, one of cavalry and
ten light batteries of artillery are now
concentrated at Tampa and Port Tam
pa, making force of about 1000 men.
All the troops recently ordered here
from Mobile, New Orleans and Chicka-
mauga have arrived. 1t is generally
believed in Tampa that this force will
be augmented in the near future by at
least two regiments of cavalry from
Chickamauga, besides the artillery.
Two recruiting offices were opened in
Tampa Monday for enlistment of Gu
bans for Gomez army. The specifica-
tions allow only young unmarried men
to enlist. 1t is believed at least 700
will respond to the call.

CAPTURE OF PORTO BELLo.
The Pirate Morgan Forced Monks and Nuns
to Place Scaling Ladders Against tho
Walls.

Walls.
The buccaneers found Porto Bello a
hard nut to crack; they landed and
marched upon the town, which was de-
Tended by several forts or castles.
Even when one of these had been cap
tured by assault and blown up with all
its garrison, who had been taken pris-
oners, still the town was not intiml-
dated. The governor vowed he would
never surrender, but would die fight
ing to the last. In vain the pirates
made desperate efforts to capture
the principal fort, and Morgan be-
gan to dispair. The garrison was
strong and well commanded, and when
ever the pirates attempted to scale the
wall they were shot down, or fire
pots full of powder mixed with stones
and other missiles were hurled upon
them.
At last the willy Morgan had an idea.
He set his men to work to make some
ladders long enough to reach the top
OF the walls and wide enough to allow
three or four to go up abreast. If he
could get these properly set up, his
crew of desperate tigercats could make
q oSohiplhSt uoii, dhu Bcb oNSi ehS w '''i''-
But it was not Morgan's plan that
these men should lose their lives in
getting up these ladders. He had cap
tured some converts in the suburbs of
the town, with a number of nuns and
monks, and he now ordered these poor
creatures, the women as well as the
men, to place the ladders against the
walls, believing that the Spanish gov
ernor would not allow his soldiers to
fire upon these innocent persons.
But the governor was determined to
defend the town, no matter who had to
suffer, and SO the soldiers fired at the
nuns and the monks just as though they
were buccaneers or any other enemies.
The poor creatures cried out in terror
and begged their friends not to- fire
upon them, but the soldiers obeyed the
command of the governor, and the
pirates were close behind them, and
threatened them with their pistols,
and SO the poor nuns and monks had to
press forward, many of them dropping
dead or wounded. They continued their
work until the ladders were placed and
then over the wall swept the pirates
with yells and howls of triumph, and it
was not long after that the town was
taken. The brave governor died fight
ing in the principal fort and the citi-
zens and soldiers all united in the most
vigorous defense, but it was useless

UNLUCKY DONS.
The Cruiser Marblehead Captures
the Steamer Argonaut.
Several Spanish Army Officers Were on
Board, Among Them Being Colonel
of Infantry Who Is Said to he
Brother-in- Law of Gen. WeyIer.

Key West. May 1.-THE Spanish mail
steamer Argonaut was conveyed into
Key West harbor by the United States
cruiser Marblehead yesterday. 1t ap-
pears that Col Vincente de Cortijo, of
the Third Spanish cavalry, who with
10 other army officers was taken on the
prize, is a brother-in-law of Gen. Wey-
Ter. Cortijo denies this, but 1T IS
learned from good sources that he sus-
tains this relationship to the former
governor general of Cuba. His cap
tors are elated. Cortii 10 and the other
officers were transferred to the Guido
and the privates to the Ambrosio Boil
var, two other trophies of the war that
are lying in the harbor.
The Argonaut herself is no mean
prize, being of 1000 tons burden, but
the value of the capture lies mainly in
the prisoners of war and the mail mat
ter going to Gen. Blanco. Her cargo
was general merchandise with a large
quantity of arms and ammunition in
tended for the Spanish troops in Cuba.
The gunboat Castine has proved her
prowess as well as the more redoubta
bic ships of the squadron. Sunday
morning she went near Cabanas and
anchored only about mile from the
Notifications, which are a sort of com
posite of fort and block house. Then
she sent her steam cutter in until it
was within thousand yards of the
fort. There the cutter made sound
ingS and observations for half an hodr,
after which she returned to ship un-
molested. A number of persons were
clearly observed about the fort. They
watched the operations with apparent
interest. but offered no hostile sign.
Two unfortunate accidents occurred
on the ships during the last few days.
While the flagship New York was ly-
ing at Matanzas a sergeant of ma
rines dropped his pistol, which eX-

Taylor, an apprentice, and passing

the harbor, 4 ball got mixed with
dummy cartridges and J. 5. ComeX,

"Electrois" Causing n Great Sensation In
Europe-Latest Discovery at Thebes.
The London letter says that the
weeks discoveries have been most in
teresting. Rychnowsky, the electri-
clan of Lemberg, claims to have dis
covered an electric fluid which he calls
''electrois." The discovery has caused
a great sensation on the continent. He
obtains it by electrolysis; but it is not
identical with electricity. It's effects
are declared to be startling, producing
light and causing Geisslcr tubes to
emit fuorescent rays. 1t works pho
tochemically, rotates objects in midair,
produces whirlpools in water and kills
bacteria. Metal and glass thereby can
be charged with electricity, and the
magnet needle changes directly under
its influence.

Key West, May 6.-The mail bags on
the Spanish steamer Argonaut, which
was brought in by the Marblehead on
Wednesday, may prove most impor-
tant capture. There were l. in all.
They contained mail both to and from
Havana. One letter from Havana, un-
der date of April 20, spoke of suffering
among the poorer classes of the popu-
lation, who were entirely without
means of support. The writer himself
said he did not known where he was to
get his dinner. Another letter spoke
of suffering, but apparently the gov
crnmcnt had fair amount of supplies
for the soldiers. A large amount of
rice had been imported by spectators
who fores NV the blockade and placed
1t in warehouse. Blanco was eX-
pected to seize this rice. The Argonaut
had cargo chiefly of provisions in
tended for Havana.
The mail taken showed that the con-
dition of the Spanish in eastern Cuba
was desperate. They were then on
the point of yielding some of the
smaller garrsoned cities held by them.
