MANILA, June %, via Hong Kong,
June 29.-The Spaniards claim.to have
driven the rebels back, but really the
position is unchanged. The arrival Of
the American troops is awaited.
The Spanish outposts have prepared
to retire promptly to the walled citadel
and will probably make only a nominal
resistance.
The insurgents, it is said, dislike the
Americans and desire German protec.

The Spaniards continue their nightly

WENT AROUND THE WRECK

Cruiser Vesuvius Demonstrates Santiago

NEW YORK, June ga dispatch 70
The Herald from Port Antonio, says:
1t has remained for the staunch dyna.
mite cruiser, the Vesuvius, to demon.
strate that the entrance to Santiago
harbor was not completely blocked by
the sinking of the Merrimac.
While poking her nose about the en-.
trance to the harbor a few nights ago,
the Vesuvius discovered ample room in
which to pass the wreck. She went in,
made observations along the inner har.
Dor and then came back to sea, getting
around the wrecked collier without diff.
fculty.
1t has been ascertained that two bat.
tleships can enter the harbor abreast,
one passing to the right and the other
to the left of the Merrimac wreck.
This is III opportunity which will DO OF

Second Largest Lumber Mill in the State
of Washington Destroyed.
NEW WHATCoM, Wash, June 3d.
The second largest lumber mill in the
state of Washington, belonging to the
Belligham Bay improvement company,
was totally destroyed by fire during the
morning. Thousands of dollars worth

badly damaged. The total loss is esti-
mated at $40O, DOC. The mill employed
400 men.

ment to adopt this bold stroke. The
first nouncemen through a bulletin
posted at the war department Of the
governments intention was received
with incredulity. There was a sus.
picion that the story was being 1oated
to deceive the Spanish government.
However, when later in the day the
detail of the vessels selected to consti.
tute
Commodore Watson's Eastern Squadron
was announced and official orders were
given to provision the fleet for four
months it became apparent to the last
doubter that the government was in
earnest in its purpose to dispatch the
feet to Europe. The three vessels Sc.
lected as Golfers have started already
on their way to Newport News to take
on a large supply of coal. It will re.
quire about a week to get this down to
SIMPSONS feet, so if tho start is to be
made from that point it will be impos.
sible for Commodore Watson to get
away before July 4. This would seem
to be an suspicious date for the begin
ming of an expedition that will, for the
first time in the worlds history, start
from the New World to attack Cont
mental Europe. No attempt is made to
deny that the government is influenced
in ordering this by a desire to
Check the Irogres of the Cadiz Fleet.
1t was not believed that the Spanish
admiral could be guilty of the folly of
uncovering his own home ports in this
fashion, but inasmuch as he seems de-
termined to do so the naval strategists
could not do less than take advantage
OF the magnificent opportunity thus
afforded to strike a crushing blow at
Spain, and thereby perhaps save much
time and loss of life and money in the
conduct of the tedious campaign in
Cuba.
The Eastern squadron which the
United States will now send against
Spain far outranks the Cadiz squadron,
the Iowa and Oregon exceeding the
Pelayo and Carlos V at every point,
while the other United States vessels
are far superior, ship for ship, to those
of the Spanish squadron with the
single exception OF two Spanish tor
pedo boat destroyers.
Will Start as Soon as Soon Possible.
Commodore Watson should reach
Admiral Sampson by Thursday morn.
ing or perhaps earlier, for the Newark.
having been extensively repaired, is
now a swift warship. The start will
be made from off Santiago just as soon
as the squadron can be gotten ready
and this, owing to the completeness of
the naval mobilization, will be in a
very short time. The officers of the
Eastern squadron are as follows:

JUST TO BRIGHTEN SPAIN,

English Correspondents Opinion of the
Latest American Move.
LONDON, June 20.-The Washington
correspondent Of The Daily News says:
Spain is to be frightened into making
peace. That is the meaning Of the
theatrical announcement that an
American squadron is going to Spain,
an announcement for which the navy
department, contrary to it's usual Gus.
tom, has sought the widest publicity.
President Mckinley sincerely hopes
