THE THIRD AND FOURTH.

Reports from the Third and Fourth
regiments indicate that enlistments are
about as rapid in their companies as in
those Of the Second. Many of these also
report having enlisted above the maxi
mum. in order 10 have men to take the
places of those who may possibly be re-
jected by the medical examiners.
1t is utterly impossible to predict with
any certainty when the Virginia regi-
ments will be ordered here 10 be formed

Everything depends upon the arrival OF
the necessary camp equipage from the

GO TO PUNCHBOWL.
Troops to Leave Camp Mckinley
Without DELAY

Acting upon the advice of Major
Morris and Major Davis. General King
yesterday condemned Camp Mckinley
as being unfit for the quartering Of
troops from sanitary standpoint. The
New York regiment and Engineers will
be removed this morning. or as early
as possible, TO the slope Of Punchbowl
on the mountain side There they will
camp in tents until a more permanent
location can be selected.
The appearance of typhoi fever in
the camps has forced the change of
base. Camp Otis would also be shifted
were il not for the fact that the Ari
IONA was daily expected 10 take the
companies there away. At 1870 yes
terday afternoon work on the new bar
racks ceased There is a suggestion
TO divide the troops, having the First
New York and Engineers camp by bat
talions in four different places.
The Camp Otis Provost Guard has
been relieved of duy in view of The
early departure of the troops for Ma
Mia. The Guards baggage is all on
the wharf awaiting the arrival OF the
Arizona.
There is now an average of eleven
men day added TO the patients in the
hospital.
Thirty men tried to run the lines AT
Camp Mckinley, Thursday night bur

Light on the Tariff Bill.

In the course Of his remarks on
the Tariff bill in the House this
week, Mr.. Lentz, the we'll known
Democratic Congressman from
Ohio, said:
But let me give you some more truth
about the other side of the House, the
majority. This bill we are now requested
to railroad was prepared IN secret session
by the Ways and Means Committee, and
the Democratic minority had nothing to
do with it After the document was
complete the minority was led to the
table to hear il read while the majority
stood around with the thumbs OF their
impudence in the armpIts Of their lDso-

spanish aud Cuban Finances.

The nearness oi Italy to Spain
and the sympathy, as well as the
community OF commercial inter
ests, existing between the two ma
tions, lead the Italian ournals, and
especially those of the industrial
centres Of the north, to devote con
siderable attention to Spanish af
fairs. A case in point is an excep-
tIonally we'll informed article on
the financial condition OF Spain
Just published by the GasSetta del
P0b0lO OF Turin. The Cuban debt,
guaranteed first by the Cuban Gus
toms, and secondly by Spain, Of
which the coupons are payable IN
gold, amounts to no less than g.
a4S, 400. 900 pesetas (S45o. .ooo, ,oool,
bearing interest to the amount Of
nearly SAC, 900, 900 a year Most
OF these bonds are in Spanish
hands, having been accepted in
great part by the Bank Of Spain as
security for advances made to the
Government. In addition to the
above debt the Spanish Govern
ment is liable Tor nearly sIoo, ,ooo, :
600 in respect of arrears Of pay to
the army and navy, to contractors,
and TO pensioners, as well as for
the sum OF SIC, ,ooo, 900 a month due
to Marshal Blanco for war expen-
ses in Cuba. Before the outbreak
of the present insurrection the an
nual revenue OF Cuba did not suf-
fee to cover the sums needed for
interest and sinking fund in respect
Of debts previously contracted by
the Government OF the island, anc
therefore Spaniards were agreed
that the debts incurred in put.
ting down this insurrection mus
be assumed by Spain. Wher
granting the recent Cuban Lonsri
tuition. however, the Spanish Gov
ernme1t left this point unsettled
postponing its solution until more
peaceful times. The Spanish au
thorities are therefore confronted
by the following situation. Cubi
cannot bear any further burden o
debt, and Spain is not in position
to assume any further fnancia
charge, since her recent budget
have shown a deficit oi betweei
$40, 900, 900 and $40, 900, 900 year
the deficit being chiefly due to tn
$50, ,ooo, 900 annually required TO
the service OF the public debt @
Spain.
Washington sentinel., 1898-04-30
Senator Oh andItr

publicly declared that until re-
Gently it was not the intention OF
Mckinley to force Spain to give
up Cuba; that he and his minister
Woodward had always been work
ing against Cuban independence,
in fact never mentioned a word
about the latter.
Mckinley has been driven by
Congress a little farther than that
now. But his heart is the same.
Why the Spanish ships do not come
over quicker, is known to HIM. By
keeping them back and doing
nothing he still hopes to make an
arra ngement with Spain which will
save the Spanish bonds. All that
has been done bV our fleet before
Havana has been against his will.
Thus he was thunderstruck when
the first Spanish ship was captured.
Secretary Long now declares
openly that the firing upon Matan-
zas was without orders from Wash
ington.
Our officers are mad over their
forced inactivity. This policy may
turn out most disastrous TO US. 1t
ought to be stopped. This war can
be finished within four weeks if
Mr.. Mckinley would allow it.
