lishment OF the blockade several inter
esting and daring expeditions have been
made into the enemy's country to dis
cover the actual condition of affairs in
Santiago. 1t is no easy matter to get
near the city these days. About 5000
Spanish soldiers and 1000 home guard
troops cover every roadway about the
place, and General Pando, the Spanish
military commander. is very active.
although his operations are limited by
tne mountains surrounding the place
which are full of insurgents.
On Sunday, June 4, the converted
light house boat Suwanee, commanded
by Lieutenant Commander Daniel Dele

on board about 1000 rounds of ammu-
milton, 5000 rifles, 1000 carbines. 1000
machettes and hundreds of pounds of
bread, bacon and other provisions.
With the aid of a Cuban pilot picked
up by Commodore Schley, she landed
this stuff in two days, besides taking an
active part in the bombardment of the
forts at Santiago. The landing was eff
fected about 10 miles. to the westward
OF Santiago in the presence of 500 in
About 100 more insurgents
were on guard in the mountains and
passes. The ammunition, food and
arms have put the insurgents in excel
lent shape to prevent the Spaniards
from getting provisions from outside

ed materially in cutting off one part of
the Spanish army from the other.

Delehanty saw two sloops trying to run
iway up river to Assaresaro. He fired
Vt them and they were run ashore and

The only aid he had to offer them was
tons of ammunition in his ships maya

today by spies, shows that after the
bombardment of the harbor forts by
Commodore Schley, on May 81, the Span
ish cruiser Reina Mercedes, which was
disabled, was towed into the bay behind
the Socapa battery, where she lies with
two torpedo boats. Hall mile farther
up, under the lee of Cayo Smith and the
mortar batteries, is the Vizcaya, COM
manding with her broadside the two en-
frances, east and west, of Cayo Smith.
A half mile north and at the gate of
the third narrow entrance, lies the AL
mirante Oquendo, and half q mile to the
northeast are the Cristobal Colon and
Maria Teresa. The ships are about
mile and half from the city proper,
the shallow water forbidding them to go
much closer. The sunken collier Merri-
mac is directly in the narrow part of the
channel.

KANSAS POLITICAL CONVENTIONS.
Sunfower Democrats and Populists in Ses-
sion Today Nominating State Tickets
Pop State Administration Com
mended by Democratic


Atchison, Kas., June 15.-The Demo.
cratic state convention was called tC
order this morning by j. MacLove,
chairman of the Democratic state cen
tral committee. Over 300 delegates are
in attendance David Overmyer was
selected temporary chairman. In his
remarks he indorsed the present Popul-
ist state administration.
He congratulated the delegates that
Kansas was no longer Republican
state; the present state administration
was elected by Democrats and he was
proud Of it, Things, he said were now
shaping themselves so that the time is
coming when there would not be three
parties in opposition to the Republicans,
but one instead, the old, indestructible
Democracy. Referring to the Chicago
convention, he congratulated the dele
gates upon the immortal platform and
the illustrious candidate.
Populist Convention.
Topeka, Kas., June 15.-There were
six candidates for temporary chairman
of the Populist state convention today,
but Judge j. E. Andrews was chosen.
He said: II appreciate the honor of
presiding over the convention which is
to renominate our present state officers.
Their records will stand the most ex-
acting criticism. In the great contest
going on now, our party was the first to
declare that the principles of humanity
should be applied to Cuba.
"The chairman of the convention at
Hutchinson q few days ago sarcastically
asked: Where would we be now If
Bryan was president?' l will say, we
would now be closing the war without
the issuance of bonds" Cheers and
cries "Hit EN- again" and clay on Nc
Duff"
The whole ticket with the exception
of lieutenant governor is likely to be
nominated. Lieutenant Governor Har-
vey, recently appointed major Of the
s2d Kansas volunteers, Is now with the
regiment at Falls Church, Va. 1t is an
ticipated that the Democratic conven-
tion at Atchison today will nominate
David Overmyer. lieutenant governor,
and the Populist convention will indorse
him. There was a strong movement to
place David Martin, formerly chief JUS
tice, elected as a Republican, in nomina-
tion for associate justice, but today
Martin refused peremptolily to run, an
nouncing that he was not a candidate
and had no desire to re-enter public
life,

NEW LOAN A SUCCESS.
Government Will Have No Trouble Placing
the Bonds-Proposals Covering Entire
Tssua Receivad

Washington, June 15.-lf there was
ever any question about the success of
the new per cent war loan, it has been
settled by the way in which subscrip-
tions are coming in. The assurance of
the success of the loan, has, however,
been made absolutely certain by two
propositions, each averaging the entire
present issue of $2O0,OOO,OOO. The SUBJ
scription by the National City bank, the
Central Trust company and Vermilye
& Co., made the day the loan was
opened, was for any part of the total
issue that should not be taken by the
public. Another proposal covering the
entire amount came from j. Pierpont
Morgan and associates.

Rear Admiral Sampson and Commodore
Schley, with their combined forces, are
slowly but surely putting such net
work about Santiago de Cuba and cut
ting off so effectually every source of
outside aid, that within short time
starvation's tapping will give way to
deaths solid knock for admittance

Within three days, three separate
sources of supply and reinforcement
have been cut off, and Santiago is now
isolated from the world and down to
famine rations. When Admiral Cervera
arrived at Santiago with his fleet, people
there welcomed him for the relief they
thought he would bring; but instead of
food he brought them 700 more men to
feed.

placed before Joseph Letter today and

were consigned to P. d. Armour, who
