 of the result of the fighting. They
 are dreaming day and night of the
 victory and are waiting anxiously for
 the news of a defeat of the United States naval forces by the Spanish
 fleet.
 News from Mexico and the Spanish American republics is also awaited
 here, it being believed in certain quar- ters that assistance is coming from those directions in some shape or other.
 On the other hand, the Americans here are looking forward to the day when Spanish misrule in this island will be ended forever, when the stars and stripes float over this unhappy land and the red flag of Spain is hauled down forever.
 Gen. Pando, the commander of the Spanish forces in the field, when last
 heard from, was travelling from Trini- dad to Sancti Spiritus, on his way to
 the Jucaro-Moron trocha, from which
 place he was going to Manzanillo and Santiago de Cuba, inspecting the forts and other Notifications. From San tiago de Cuba, it is said, Gen. Pando is
 going to visit all the ports on the north coast of the island, as far as Nuevitas. He will then go to Puerto
 Principe to await developments.
 The life of foreign newspaper cor respondents in this city at present is far from being enviable. The recent expulsion of MT. Ackers, the cores pondent of the London Times, has caused more and more ill feeling
 against correspondents among the
 masses, if not the more enlightened circles. However, it is generally ad-
 mitted that the government is doing
 everything possible to protect the for eigners who remain here. Americans

THE PLAN IN CUBA.
Everything Points to a Fall Cam
 paign on Land.

Washington, May 2.-Plans for the first military expedition to Cuba have been outlined and practically ar ranged. A point on the northern coast Of Cuba, within the radius of the blockade instituted by Admiral Samp- sons squadron, has been selected for the landing place, and when the mlll- tary force which will make the move ment is ready there will be no delay whatever in carrying out the details of the programme. How soon the troops will be able to move to the Cuban coast has not been determined, but the military authorities feel cont1- dent that they will have completed their preparations in a fortnight and that the first detachment will be on Cuban soil early this month.
 It is the purpose of the government to establish a base Of supplies at the point already selected. This will b5 strongly fortified, and additional pro-

May 2-Jose M Del Vale, the proprietor of a magnificent central plantation at Mapos, in the district of Sancti Spiritus, province of Santa Clara; Modesto Ulloa, railroad en- ploye, and Arturo Chalu and Jose Mer- file, prominent citizens Of Sancti Spiri- tus, with some Spanish artillery cap tains and various other people of that district, have joined the insurgents
 Senor Del Valle has been appointed a colonel in the insurgent army.
 The excitement caused by the re- cent developments in the political sit nation is very great, though of the subdued kind. In other words, the people may not be doing much, but they are thinking a great deal, and are determined to make as stiff a fight as possible. Correspondents are not allowed to obtain any information re- garding the military and naval move ments, and it is not wise for them to ask any questions.
 The quiet maintained by the peopIe under the circumstances is astonishine all those who understand the Spanish character, and the only explanation

It's a Slow Process.

~HE raising of the Maine Is a
process that bids fair to wear
out the guncotton reporters
from New York. who have been mag
lining all sorts of things that never
happened. These romancers had the
cable to Havana cut, the resident
Americans in danger of general
massacre, the members of the Names
crew telling just how the thing hap
pened They put lies in Captain Sigs-
bees mouth and told what the divers
found on the ships bottom before the
divers had arrived in the harbor. They
discovered a certain proof that the
Spaniards did 1t. as often as twice an
hour: they fiattered themselves that
they had brought on war with Spain.
The western press has had occasional
specimens of this style of reporting, but
what has reached this section Is only
as a drop compared with the showers
of false reports that have been dashed
on the New York public during the
past ten days. The net result is that
the public is waiting for the first in
s1allment of significant news regarding
the cause of the Maine disaster.
All that thus far has been learned Is
that there are probably no tunnels
leading to submarine mines in Havana
harbor. To reach the portions of the
wreck that can tell story is a difficult
process, tedious and dangerous. The
authorities at Washington assert that
they have given tn the public all the
news they have-and doubtless that's a
truthful statement; and at that the
authorities have not given out much.
It will take time.

Sherman Not In 1t.

TT is quite in the line of sensational
news to read that yesterday cab
net meeting was held at which all
the members of the cabinet, including
Secretary Sherman. were present
Really, Mr.. sherman had passed en-
tirely out of the public mind, at time
when the department Of state is the
very center of tremendously exciting
doings In connection with the intense

as uncomfortable as possible for the
veteran statesman--all because Mark
Hanna wants 1t that way
Day has been much quoted and talked
about of late, but not Sherman. Day
hasn't said thing that amounts TO
anything-the country does not believe
that If any emergency arises, he is in
any way qualified To meet II. In n

For that matter this country couldn't
possibly be persuaded that any man Is

| Day lets himself be used, in the effort
to crowd his superior officer into the
background. That is the use to which
this hitherto-unheard-o Day permits
himself to be put, as against John
Sherman who. to-day, in respect To dis
tinguished career in public life, Is alb
solutely without "a peer among living
Americans who made national repu-
tation in rebellion times.
Mark Hanna simply kicked Sherman
out of the senate. Then he put Day
into the state department to make
Sherman a shadow there. The country
knows perfectly we'll that Mr.. Sherman
| grows old apaee and that the respon-
sibility of the state department Is a
burden greater than he ought TO have
thrust upon him: he should have beer

The fact is that in all the state-de'
partment comment involving possible
complications with a foreign power, th'
unknown Day does all the talking. The
country is not deceived as to the sneak
ing purpose he serves in connection
with the cabinet If he is the real sec
rotary of state why doesn't Presiden
Mckinley have the courage To say 81
and put sherman out bodily instead %
elbowing him constantly? This Mr.

liability against the government of
Spain. 1t is an elementary principle
of international law that a government
is in no way responsible for the acts
of private citizens. If it We're not so
complications would be arising con-
tinually, which would keep nations
in turmoil and arbitrating continu-
ally"
This opinion finds approval in many
newspapers; it is radically opposed by
others, and the presidents seem not to
sustain the view Mr. Lincoln advances
Some of these presidents are cited.
Among them is one that dates from
1851. In August of that year mob de-
stroyed the building used by the Span
ish consul at New Orleans for official
business and at the same time mobbed
and maltreated other Spanish resi-
dents of that city. The Spanish gov
eminent, through Don Calderon de la
Barca, it's minister, Immediately de-
manded an apology for the insult and
| indemnifcation for all the losses. both
official and personal.
The matter was the subject of much
| diplomatic correspondence, the delicacy
of which was increased by the fact
that American residents at Havana
| had been maltreated for alleged COM
| plicity in the Lopez instruction IN
| Cuba. Finally, upon the recommended
| ton of President Fillmore, congress
| two years later passed joint resolu-
ton granting indemnity to the Span
iards mobbed in the New Orleans riots
| of 1851. This act was in recognition OF
the responsibility of this country. under
it's treaty with Spain, for the acts of
private citizens"
This case is claimed to have been a
precedent for Mr.. Blaine in disposing
of the troubles that arose with the
Italian government as the result of the
killing of several Italians in New Or
leans. in March, 1891. These Italians
had been indicted for the murder Of
David Hennessey, chief of police. They
were acquitted and then shot by eitl'
Zens who believed them to be guilty
The department of state tritled long
time with the matter and finally gave
the Italian government $4,000 francs
for distribution to the families OF the
dead. Several cases, hardly presenting
a parallel with the Maine affair but in
which the United States successfully
demanded indemnity, are mentioned IN
this mornings dispatches.
AS for the presidents in England, the
New York sun in support of the propo-
sition that state is responsible to 4
foreign state for injuries inflicted by
the private citizens of the former state
on citizens of the latter, refers to the
celebrated case of Don Pacifico, a Brit
ish subject, whose house at Athens wal
plundered by a mob in 1S47 because i
was believed that he had induced tn
Athenian police to prohibit the Easte
custom of burning Judas 1scariot il
i efigy. The British fleet laid an EN-
barge upon Greek shipping, and thu
compelled the payment of an ampl
sum in indemnity.
