STRONG FORCE FOR CUBA.
Enough Troops to 80 sent to the Island 50
That There VIII Re No Reverses
Says Mr.. MoKInley.

WAsHINGToN, May 90.-"We are going
to walk over Cuba with force so
strong that there will be no reverses
no checks to the forward movement"
said the president to a visitor. There
is no doubt now of the determination
to move the troops to Cuba. Cervera's
disappearing fleet cuts no figure.
Every day now tells on the prepara-
tions The presidents words, quoted
above, are well borne out by the magni-
tude OF the provision being made. When
the start takes place from Tampa in
the next few days it will be on n scale
and with a completeness which will
render unnecessary any more delays.
The president further explained the
purpose to land in Cuba in such
strength and with such support AS
will permit of active operations from
the very first. The force will be over
whelming. 1t will move upon Havana
as soon as the different divisions get
into position after they land, Within
a week from the day the troops set
foot on Cuban soil it is expected that
Havana will be invested by land The
show of strength will be such as to
impress Gen. Blanco with the utter
uselessness of cOntesting the advance.

WASHINGTON, May 19.-The navy de-
partment issued circular letter ask.
ing for bids for the construction OF
three frst-class battleships, IS torpedo
boat destroyers, 10 torpedo boats and
four harbor defense monitors. These

The naval advisory board on construc-
ton has decided that the three new
battleships shall be of the Alabama

pedo boat destroyers must have a
minimum speed of % knots, and be
able to cruise 1000 miles without re-
filing bunkers. The torpedo boats

SYRACUSE, N. Y, May 21.-The fight
last night between Kid Mccoy and Gus
Rubin, the latter of Cleveland, re-
suited in victory for Mccoy after 20
rounds Three thousand persons were
in Tie Alhambra, where the fight was
held. There was little betting on
the result and the showing made
by Rubin was surprise. He stood
a lot of punishment and was always
ready to come back for more. He
was apparently strong at the finish.
There was a great difference in the

to his statement, weighing 157 pounds,
and Rubin, according to Billy Mad

Great Activity Reported in Strengthening

LONDON, May 2O.-The Madrid corre-

ing upon the great activity displayed
in strengthening the coast defenses of
Spain, says:
Special naval and military committees have
been formed to watch the approaches to the har-
bors The reasons for this are unknown but pos
siby there are fears Of an American naval raid,
or there is n prospect of European complca-
lions. Capt Aunon, the newly designated minis
ter Of marine, who favors an active naval policy,
especially at the Philippines, has had long
conferences with Admiral Bermejo, whom he
will succeed. In the Philippines, majority of
the people are loyal and the Americans and
their few native allies are unable to conquer
another acre of soil Spain will, therefore,
keep at home the 1000 troops intended for the
Philippines until further notice and will imme-
diately send the Cadi2 reserve squadron to Ma
Mia to chastise Dewey

physician of Columbus, o., where his
family now lives. died at hospital

the stores and had slept in friends
Office. His pride had kept him from
begging, and none of his associates
knew to what straits he was reduced.
He suffered reverses in Ohio about

them of no value, he would not return
to Ohio to live in reduced circumstances
among those who had seen him prosper
in previous years.
