THE Wicaita Eagle, SANKEY'S home hacker,
says if the Republicans win in Kansas this year,
an effort will be made in the next Legislature to
increase official salaries. There is nothing sur
prising in this statement. If the Republicans
had controlled the last Legislature, the salaries
would not have been reduced, nor would any
laws have been enacted which would have saw
ed money to the taxpayers of the state.

In recent issue of the Topeka Capital is a
list of the sales of liquor sold by the drug

they allow the drug stores to sell without let or

NINE SPANISH VESSELS
Captured by the United States Naval Forces
Since War Was Begun.

"a pIureO DY the United states Naval Forces
Since War Was Begun.
NEW YORK, April 26.-Since the war
with Spain was begun the United
States naval forces have established a
strict blockade of Cuban ports and
have captured nine Spanish vessels.
The prizes are the steamers Buena
Ventura, Pedro. Miguel Jover, Cata-
lima and Saturnina, and the schooners
Mathilde, Candida and Antonio
All these vessels have been or will
be taken to Key West except the Sat-
urnina, which was seized at Ship is
land. The Spanish steamers Panama,
from New York, and Alphonse
XII, from Spain, both bound
for Cuba, are likely to be captured
by American warships within a few
days. Spain has made no seizures of
American vessels, so far as known.
From the beginning of the war, the
only movement of the Spanish navy
that has been reported is the departure
of the torpedo boat destroyer Audaz
from Queenstown for Spain, her de-
parture being compelled by the Eng
lish neutrality proclamation. For the
same reason the United States Asiatic
squadron has begun to leave Hong
Kong. The North Atlantic squadron
is enforcing the blockade of Cuba and
the Flying squadron remains in Hamp-
ton Roads, except the Minneapolis and
Columbia, which have gone to sea on a
mission known only to naval authori-
ties. The cruisers San Francisco and
New Orleans are at the Brooklyn navy
yard and may sail Tuesday to join the
Flying squadron. Every day adds sew
eral vessels to the auxiliary fleet. The
battle ship Oregon and the gunbOat
Marietta are coming up along the east
coast of South America, and will prob
ably touch at Rio Janeiro in few
days. The dynamite cruiser Nictheroy,

CHICKAMAUGA NATIONAL PARK, Ga,
April Reorganization of the troops
of the United States regular army at
Chickamauga into an army corps has
practically been decided upon. No
general order has been issued to this
effect, nor will such an order be issued
until such time as the various regi-
ments of infantry and the artillery
now on their way to the park are ac-
tually encamped here. The corps will
be made up of two divisions of cavalry,
of three regiments each; u
general order for the formation
of which was issued Saturday by
Maj. Gen. Brooke, two divisions of in
fantry of four regiments each and ten
batteries of artillery, to be formed in
to a regiment. 1t is quite probable
that other regiments which have been
telegraphed for, but which have not
yet been heard from, will arrive here
within the next day or two, possibly
enough to form another disvision. AS
it stands now the cavalry division is as
follows:
Col. A. K. Arnold, First cavalry,
commanding. First Brigade-Com-
posed of the First cavalry, Second cav
airy and Tenth cavalry. Second Bril-
gade-Col ). S. Sumner, commanding,
composed of the Third cavalry. Sixth
cavalry and Ninth cavalry.

will be embraced in the First brigade

KINGSTON, Jamaica, April 27.-First
Lieut. Andrew S. Rowan, of the Nine
the war department, was landed en- the
Cuban coast somewhere west of Santi-
ago probably before dawn on Monday.
His Cuban guides and an open sailboat
were used. The guides have not re-
turned.
Lieut.. Rowan is on his way to the
camp of Gen. Garcia. He will repre-
sent the war department in arranging
for the cooperation of the insurgents
n the invasion of eastern Cuba by the
forces of the United States. The time
and place of invasion will be cOntroll-
I'd by events and Lieut. Rowan's dis
patches.
Lieut.. Rowan was detailed from the
bureau of information for this danger
Gus service-dangerOus because, in his
civilian dress, he is liable to be treated
as a spy. He speaks Spanish and knows
Cuba, having written a book on the
subject. Moreover, he is an expert
map maker.
Lieut.. Rowan left Washington un'ler
instant orders on April Q. He was di-
cected to wait here, prepared to go to
Porto Rico or Cuba. AS he went to
Eastern Cuba, it is inferred that a
blow will be struck there before one is
struck at Porto Rico.
