CUBAN COAST PATROLED
\ ONE HUNDRED MILE PICKET
LINE.
Failure of the Gussie to Land Arms
for the Insurgents Due to Spanish
Watchfulness.

KEY WEST, Fla, May 1j.-The
north coast of Cuba from Matanzas
west to Bahia Honda or farther. a
distance of 100 miles across part of
Matanzas province, all OF Havana and
the eastern part of Pinar del Rio, is
patrolled by Spanish sentries who are
stationed within sight of each other
all the way. This explains why the
steam transport Gussie returned from
Canabas bay to Key West today, her
expedition virtually a total failure.
This does not mean that the failure
was due to any delinquency on the
part of Captain Dorst, in command,
or to any one else with the expedi-
ton, but that the Spanish are do
ing something to protect the coast
from invasion, and their arrange
ments are at least effective to prevent
communication, with the insurgents
on this part of the coast.
When the Gussie left here with a
cargo of rifles and ammunition for
the insurgents it was not anticipated
that there would be any obstacle to a
successful completion of that mission.
The 100 regulars on board expected
to protect the landing when the in
surgents were met to receive the car
go. The first approach to the Cuban
coast was made Thursday afternoon,
when three Cuban couriers were
landed with horses in order to com
municate with the insurgents and to
have them at the coast the next day
to receive the cargo.
Soon after this ianding came the
,l<irmish of regulars with the Spanish
in which the Spanish were dispersed
with the loss of four killed, including
lieutenant. The Gussie then steam
ed out of the bay and coasted back
and forth till morning, expecting to
finish the work Friday. When Fri
day morning dawned the transport
began coasting along near enough to
the shore to see the signals if any
were made but all to no avail.
Night came on and no progress had
been made 1t was evidently impos-
sible for the insurgents to reach the
shore or to signal the ships. and as
the landing of arms would he simply
handing them to the Spnnish. even if
it could he done at all, there was
nothing left to do but TO 90 home.
At 10 o'clock last night the Gussie
dropped anchor off Sand Key light,
where she lay tin morning. She came
! into Key West harbor today, good
deal Disguised at the failure of the
expedition. She will probaly sail for
Port Tampa tonight.

to him quarreling about a baby. One
woman said, This is my child and
the other woman said, No, faint; it's
mine But solomon spoke up and
said, No, no, ladies'; don't quarrel.

HIGH SCHOOL.

Cross Country Run This Afternoon.
The High School Athletic Association
will today conduct an athletic event the
like of which has not taken place in this
city for many years. For years cross
country running has been acknowledged &
fine exercise for the development of the
heart and lungs, yet 1t has been neglected
because of the labor necessary to accom-
pllsh any great distance across the cOun-
try. Many so-called cross-country runs
have been held in this vicinity, but they
consisted merely of road races, and no at
tempt has been made to go across the
fields and over the hills. The high schoo
race today will be over a course which
would satisfy the most ardent advocate oil
cross-country running.
The race will start at the foot ball goa
posts IN Bliss field, and will be from this
starting point to the letter box at Newton
square. from there the course will bt
across the fields to the front of the High
land Military Academy's buildings; from
there straight to the starting point. A
line view of the entire race can be seer
from the high hill back of the Sunnysidt
woods; as there are fine roads leading to
the top of the hill, many students of the
school will witness the race from this
point.
The race is the second OF a series Of
three, and will start at clock. The
entry list is large, and good racing is ex.

THAT DELAY.
Weaver Says 1t Was impossible to Get the
Pay Rolls Ready.

Lieutenant Colonel Edward NJ, Weav-
er, in an interview with a Spy reporter
regarding the inability of the paymas-
ter of the Second regiment to pay off
the men of the regiment yesterday,
said that many misleading statements
had been made in the papers and by
the soldiers. The colonel said it was
impossible to get the mastering out
rolls complete in time to pay the SOL
diers before they We're mustered out
Colonel Weaver also said that it was
better for the companies, in his estim-
alton to be mustered out yesterday and
PAID later by the paymaster than it
would have been if they had remained
in the service until they could be paid
He thought that the men would get
their money much quicker and that the
paymaster would leave Boston in three
days time. Colonel Weaver seemed to
regret the non-arrival Of the pay nearly
as much as the men did.
1t was stated in Springfield yester-
day, by good authority, that Colonel
Weaver has held several telephone con-
yersations over the wires with Paymas-
ter sherman during the week, and that
the colonel told Paymaster Sherman
what he thought of him in very plain
language. II was SAID that Colonel
Weaver told Sherman plainly that he
should have had the rolls ready, as ne
would have had to do it if he was mus
| tering out regiment of regular army
soldiers.
Over $135,000 will be required to pay
off the Second regiment. If Paymaster
Sherman does not start on his rounds
the first of next week there will prob
ably be war in parts of Massachusetts
that viii make the paymaster think
that he is at Ell Caney, where the boys
earned the money that is due them.
1t has been extensively rumored that
the war department at Washington, D.
G., has requested an explanation of
Sherman's delay.
