of both the Daily Chronicle and Daily
News deny that the Austrian govern
ment has received any fresh communi-
therefore, that any efforts in this di-
rection are being made only in France,
where it is apparent they are most
likely to succeed.
A protracted war, besides disturbing
commerce, would necessitate postpon-
ing the coming exhibition in Paris. It
is hoped that the new commercial agree
ment between France and the United
States will smooth the way for French
intervention, in which certainly Aus
tria, and possibly England and other
powers will join. Russia, it is asserted,
would be willing to undertake the Office
of mediator to save France the neces-
sity Of becoming prominent.
SPAIN ELATED.
The Madrid correspondent Of the
Standard says:
'"The Madrid papers are much elated
over another repulse suffered by the
American fleets. According to official
reports the land batteries at Santiago
were undamaged and not a single
Spaniard was killed or wounded, and
not a single shell struck the Spanish
cruiser Cristobal Colon.
eel Heraldo regrets that the Spanish
fleet was not sent to the Philippines
instead of Cuba"
The Vienna correspondent of the
Daily Mail says:
Spain has addressed another appeal
to the powers to intervene, and Austria
is disposed to accede, but only in con-
junction with other powers.
CERVERA THERE.
Despite the statements Of the news
papers, that Admiral Cervera was not
present at the bombardment of SAM
tiago de Cuba, on Tuesday, Capt. Au-
non, the minister Of marine, in an. in
terview today declared that Cervera
hoisted his flag on the Cristobal Colon
in order to direct the Spanish opera
tions, 1.-The success of which is princi-
pally due to Cervera, who has given
proofs Of high strategic ability"

EYES ON HAWAII.
Men at Camp Merritt Not Adverse to
That Country.

That Country.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 2.-The re-
ports from Washington that the annex
alton of Hawaii is about to be consum-
mated is given much credence by the
officers at Camp Merritt, and they are
already figuring on an order to send
troops to the islands to look after Uncle
Sans interests, and some of the volun-
teers who fear that they will not be
sent to the Philippines are counting
upon being turned to Hawaii as place
Of second choice.
Gen. Merritt is arranging the details
of the second expedition to the Philip
pines, but has not yet made public the
assignments of troops for the expedi-
ton, and he will not make the order
public until the date Of sailing has been
determined.
1t is stated in some quarters that the
expedition cannot possibly sail for two
weeks yet, and 1t is even semi-officially
stated that the vessels will not be ready
for some days yet. Just what is caus-
ing the delay is a mystery. The owners
of the vessels say they have not receiv-
ed any hurry up orders from Wash
ington, and that they can perform their
share Of the contract at short notice as
soon as definite orders are received.
The Brutus, the steamer recently
bought by the government, will be
ready to go to sea next Saturday. Her
alterations have been completed and
she Is now receiving stores. The Mon
terey is now taking on coal in sacks,
and her magazine is well filed. She,
too, will be ready by next Saturday.
The Monadnock is expected shortly
from Puget Sound. 1t is the belief in
naval circles that She will be kept in
Honolulu.

and there are thousands Of others who
have recently left the towns to join
the army because they could no longer
live in the towns. From Puerto Principe
alone, 10000 men and women and chill
dren have left because Of the scarcity
OF provisions, preferring to take their
chances In the country and further in
fiuenced by the fear that at the last
moment the Spaniards, driven to de-
spair, will, out Of revenge, resort to
slaughter"

ADDITIONAL TRANSPORTS.
Ships That VIII Carry 5000 Men to
Cuba.

Ships That VIII Carry 5000 Men to
WASHINGTON, June 2.-Assistant
Secretary Meiklejohn, of the war le-
partment, today secured additional
transports Of capacity of approximate
ly 5000 men for the Cuban invasion.
This swells the number to over thirty,
with a carrying capacity OF over 10000
men. The ships secured today will be
sent to Florida ports chiefly Tampa,
as fast as possible and prepared for
service
The vessels are the Comanche, of the
Clyde line, now at New York, capacity
1,2O0; the Louisiana and Knickerbocker,
of the Cromwell line, one Of which Is
at New York and the other at New
Orleans, 600 each; the Special and
Union, belonging to a foreign line,
which before the war piled between
Porto Rico and New York, with car
rying capacity Of 1000 each.
The contract is subject to the vessels
securing American register.
At the same time Mr.. Meiklejohn an
rounced that the Mantea, small YES
sci now at one of the gulf ports, was
ready for service, and she will proceed
to Tampa Immediately. Her capacity
is 200 men.
The understanding at the war depart
ment is that up to this time none Of
the troops Of the regular army, which
1t was announced would sail this week,
had actually left the United States,
and the officials are reticent as to the
time the embarkation Is to take place.
The latest information is that Gen.
Miles is still at Tampa, and several
kilograms reaching here from him bear
date of that place.
Assistant Secretary Meiklejohn an
nounced with considerable satisfaction
that the troop ship designed for the
second Philippine expedition would ar
rive at San Francisco Saturday. She
has been at one Of the Pacific coast
ports and is fully equipped and ready
for her work. At the same time he
said the Ohio, also to go with the Sec
ond expedition, would reach San Fran
cisco Saturday or Sunday, coaled for
her long voyage, but not yet equipped.
Meanwhile arrangements for the Sec
ond expedition are being hurriedly
rushed, and the officials here hope that
it will not be very long before the five
vessels which are to compose it start
out of the Golden Gate on their long
voyage across the Pacific.

Spanfards Claim Alfonso XIII. Is
Now at Porto Rico.
MADRID, June 2.-The report that the
Spanish transport ship Alfonso XIII
had been captured by an American
auxiliary cruiser is without founda-
tion. 1t is announced officially that the
Alfonso XIII. is now landing her cargo
of provisions at Porto Rico.
The captain general of Porto Rico
cables that the question of subsistence
has raised no difficulty in the island,
as several vessels have entered the
port with provisions.

Restormel, captured by the auxiliary

The court held that the question for

have known that she was carrying con-
