WILL NOT BE DISTURBED.
Blanco Can Rest in Peace Until
Commodore Watson Returns

Commodore Watson Returns.
New YORK, July 14.-A Tribune
special from WASHINGTON says:
The actual departure of Commo
dore Watson's ralding squadron for
the coast Of Spain, which the naval
authorities expect will occur about
the end of the present week, indicates
sufficiently the complete abandon
ment Of any intention to besiege Ha.
Yana in the hext three or four months
and confirms the impression that no
extended military operations will. be
prosecuted in Cuba after the capitu-
lation of Santiago.
The remarkable difficulties which
have attended the Investment Of San
tlago and the resulting tedious delays
have served to convince the military
and naval authorities that HaYana
cannot be attacked successfully with
less than 1000 men and the entire
naval force in the Atlantic. l.5
The city, ordinarily one Of the best
fortified ports in the world, has been
made more impreguable in the last
two months through the ceaseless ac-
tivity of General Blanco, who has
surrounded it with several chains of
strong entrepchments and fortifca-
tions, in addition to the new bat
teries he had mounted along the
coast. Without the strong vessels
attached to the raiding squadron the
navy would be powerless to render
effective assistance to the army
against Havana, and it is deemed inn
possible that land forces alone could
secure the surrender of the city within
less than several months campaign,
which would be out of the question
before mldwlnter on account Of the
climatic conditions.
Promptly upon the fall Of Santiago,
it is announced, the expedition to
Porto Rico is to be undertaken, with
General Miles in command of three
divisions, aggregatirg more than 3d.
600 men. He will have the co.opera-
tion of Admiral SIMPSONS heavier
ships in the assault on San Juan, and
it is his intention to clear the entire
island of Spanish troops with every
energy at his command. His force
will include practically all the regular
and volunteer troops now at Santiago,
the Cubans and immunes being left to
hold that province.
In addition to the AZ transports al
ready secured to carry troops to Porto
Rico, including the 80 that formed
General Skaters main expedition,
the navy has consented tn the tempo
rary use Of the auxiliary cruisers St.
Paul, st. Louis, Yale and Harvard
to carry the regiments, and number
OF other vessels will be available next
week.
The medical corps of the army ex-
poets yellow fever to appear among
the troops at Santiago at any time.
The light fevers which are DOW in
validing many Of the men may at
any moment assume malignant types.
For this reason urgent recommended
tions have been made that the troops
be taken out of the country as soon as
possible. The surgeons declare that
tine horrors of a long continued siege
would be incalculable, and in their
opinion it will be found better to lose
hundreds of men in an aggressive as
sault than to expose the entire army,
and this country as well, to a deyast-
ating epidemic of yellow fever. g

CHAPTER IX.
The Prophet.

When Harewood reached the front door
he stood amazed. The Rue d'Ypres, that
broad. sunny street, usually quiet and
deserted as a country road. was thronged
with people, from the Porte Rouge to the
Prince Murat barracks. In front of tho
house the people were silent and attentive,
watching a swarm Of laborers gathered
around the bastion. A company of sail
ors from the fleet stood leaning on their
rifles in front Of a strange. shapeless struc-
tIre that lowered into the air above the
heads of the crowd. one long steel arm
stretched out stark against the sky. Be
yond it, on the rusty rails of the narrow
gauge track stood car truck, painted
blue, and on this truck lay gigantic can
non.
The guncarriage had already been placed
on the circular track, sunk into the cement
below the ramparts the terrassiers were
shavlng the terrace, sodding it along the
glacis and piling sacks filled with earth
across the angles of the epaulment. The
rotten gabions and packed barrels that
supported the gun terrace were being re-
moved and new ones substituted. Lock-
smiths and carpenters worked in the bomb

A ssilorman is fond Of pets, but q ship is

All this was clear to Harewood as he lay
there in the dark. but 1t did not satisfy him
as 1t had once. Moreover, whereas few
days ago he was, certain that he himself
risked nothing, now he was far from sure.
He asked himself whether he was In danger

not reply. Had he been simply curious to

Cunning on the Susqushanna.

The sportsmen OF the State are now inter
ested in securing Game Protective Laws, and
the Susquehanna river grounds are coming
in for their share of attention, as the follow
ing articles show:
James +. Busey, an ardent sportsman, said:
''There are four changes | would like to see
in the laws regulating shooting on the Sus-
quehanna flats. Knock out bushwhackng,
use only single sink boxes, stop teal shooting
in September. and, fourthly, stop duck shoot
ing on March Il"
James r. Malone, captain of the Baltimore
Shooting Asson., says: II concur in what Mr.
Busey says, but think the proper plan would
be to increase box licenses to $50 and make
bushwhackers pay the same amount
John A. WIIiar, one Of the best posted
duck shooters in Maryland, snid II am in
favor Cf stopping all duck shooting in the
spring for Il period OF three years, abolshing
teal shooting in September, and of taxing
sink boxes and bushwaack boats $50 each. $
Mr. ]. l.. Straus says: "a number of anglers
OF Baltimore made several visits to the Sus-
Quehapna river at Havre de Grace in the last
bass fishing season and had delightful sport.
On one trip a party caught seYonty-threc
bass, the individuals Of which weighed from
one to five pounds. This was reported to be
the largest catch ever made in one day there
with rod and reel.
"On another trip, while fishing in the old
Susquehanna and Tidewater canal. which
runs from Havre de Grace to Bells Ferry,
noticed several fishermen hauling Il seine.
and l am also informed by well-known
resident of Havre de Grace that as much as
300 pounds of bass have been taken out at
one haul, and that hardly day passes dur
ing the season but they are at work hauling
their seines. If this be allowed to go on it
will certainly break up one of the finest
sports with rod and reel in this State, if not
in this country.
"When our Game and Fish Protection AS
sociation go down to the presen. Legislature.
| trust it will not overlook this matter, and
have a law passed to prevent any seine or net
hauling in the bass season in the Susquehanna
river or the old Tidewater canal and will
provide heavy penalty for violations, to
protect what in few years will be the great
est and finest body of water in the world for
bass flshing.'
