Reported Deficiencies in spaIn's
Equipment.
NEW YORK, April 28.-A World
special from Madrid says: The Span
ish people are almost paralyzed with
tonight that the COM
bined souadrons at the Cape Verde
Islands sailed today for a destin alton
which was not made public. Every
body believed that the feet was nearly
across the Atlantic and was ab3lt to
attack United States ports. In vas an
nounced officially today that the feet
had left for America. Afterwards 4 d.
miral Bermeio, Minister OF Marine
told the public that the fleet was fa!f
way over the ocean.
The Governments deception OF the
people is resented bitterly. The official
announcement says that the fleet
which sailed was composed of the first
class armored cruisers CristObal Colon,
Infanta Maria Teresa. Almirante,
Ouuendo and Vizcaya, tOrepdo BOAT
destroyers Furor. Terror and Pluton
and transport City of Cadiz. 1t was
added that the torepdo boats Ariete,
Rayo and Azor would return to Cadiz.
If the small, unseaworthy tOrepdo
boats are left behind to come home, it
is presumed that the others intend to
cross the sea.
Public Indignation at being trifled
with in reference TO the Cape Verde
fleet. of which great things are expect
ed, was intensified by the news that
the battIeship Pellayo only left Carte
gena last Monday, and reached Cadiz
today. 1t was supposed that the Pellayo
and another battleship, the EmperadOT
Carlos V, were on the other side Of the
ocean by tbs time, and perhaps IRE
pairing to lombard New York. The
same deception and dilatoriness have
been discovered in the fitting out OF
other vessels of war at navy yards, due
partly to q scandalous deficiency OF
equipment and supplies at the roya-
arsenals.
Spaniards are extremely angry with
their Government. If the navy fails tC
come up to their extravagant expecta-
lions, or meets with serious reverses
there will be an uprising Of the people
which will be irresistible.

BOMBARDMENT Is BAD.
Bert Wilson Made Acquaintance 4
of Shells in 1890.

ol oAlSAAS HI 4opp'
Willison. the circus man and Mrs.
Wilson were spending their honey
moon at Buenos Ayres when that place
was bombarded by rebels in 1890
Frank Saunders, Wilson's outside
man, was there also. Saunders went
out for look when the trouble began.
He was picked up by the insurgents,
handed gun and was in the fighting
for six days The Wilson party had
4S hours notice 10 leave and all ez-
cepting the proprietor and his wife and
Saunders went down 10 Montevideo.
Wilson and Saunders thought Buenos
Avres would be all right. The Presl-
dent of the country had been invited TO
resign. He declined and ordered out his
army. which was promptly engaged by
the rebels. who had several warshlps
with them and all of the civil guard or
militia. Wilson says shells from the
ships killed people and demolished
property at a fearful rate. Every day
or two a truce of couple OF hours
would be declared to permit gathering
ND of the dead from the street. Some
most terrible scenes were witnessed.
Mrs. Wilson tells of the child OF a
! friend of hers being killed in the arms
of its father by a wild bullet. Wilson
saw a man struck dead by shell rag
ment. Mr.. and Mrs. Wilson joined
the Red Cross corps and did all they
could to aid the wounded and assist
distressed people. Food was very
scarce and the only opportunity TO lay
in supplies was when firing ceased Ic
allow picking up the dead. In Bueno'
Avres they have one of the most ez-
tensive tram systems Of any city OF tnF
world. Early in the revolution TeSl
ment of loyal troops were brough
from distance in cars Of the tran
company. This train was set upon d.
the rebels and the whole regimen
wiped out in the streets. The lnsuI
gents had built forts hurriedly an'
seemed to have things their own way
: FINALLY the President announced tina
to stop bloodshed he would give up III
office and as we'll pardon all Offenders
The insurgents believed this offer non
estly made and laid down their arm:
. The President was fearfully dishones
and securing control again had hun
, dreds of the rebels shot down. In
only satisfaction the defeated me
! could get was to kill policemen at nigk
and they kept up at the rate OF doze
victims or more a week till heav
= military patrol was instituted.

CYCLOMERE ECHOES.
One More fort VIII Be Made to
Have the Sport.

Everybody seemed sorry yesterday 10
learn that the town was really to lose
Cyclomere. a number of men of means
who favor such sport as the place has
seen, expressed willingness to contTi-
butte money TO continuance of racing
for year or so. However. no one ap-
pears to care to assume the burden of
management of Cyclomere. The track
is probably doomed. 1t is not expected
that interest in cycling will abate to
any great extent, it is certain that the
wheel interest will lose that zest
which racing has given it everywhere.
The New York World is authority for
the statement that 1898 will be the
greatest cycling year the United States
has yet seen. New tracks for middle
distance racing are being built at
number of centers of population. Mi
chael, the phenomenal pace follower, is
to receive $4,000 for riding seven
times in June and July. Nearly all the
best California men have been called
East for the season. Bilmartin has
gone to New York.
1t was learned at a late hour last
night that a young man who is promi-
nent in amateur sporting circles and
who has both the means and ability to
carry out the project would endeayor
today to secure Cyclomere for a limited
time. In case this man gets the lease
he will give a meet, beginning Satur-
day night of this week. The coopera-
ton of the riders is already assured
A good program will be offered and all
that will remain will be for the public
to extend patronage. This will in al
likelihood be the very last effort made
to hold the beautiful track. 1t is evi'
dent that baseball is not going tt
amount to as much this year as las
and aside from cycling there will b'
little amateur sport.

whether. since San Francisco has been
