1t is now believed that the elusive Span
ish fleet, which has Eeen seen so often in
the offing, in various parts of the world,
since it left Cape Verde, has gone home
to Cadiz. The Navy Department is said
to have information of its arrival there.
If this is true-and this has been one of
the three theories constantly in mind-it
is ii practical abandonment of the West
Indies, which are the subject of conten-
ton, if not a virtual abandonment of the
war. For while the idea of concentrating
great fleet for one tremendous demon
stration against the United States may
seem feasible on paper, it is most unlikely
that it could ever be carried into effect,
and to send the fleet eastward to the Phi-
ippincs is still more ineffective sugges-
ton
Admiral Sampson meanwhile must be
near to San Juan and he will probably
have no difficulty in disposing of any ma
val force he may find there, though the re
duction of the defenses of the harbor will
not be simple. If the report from Cadiz
is true, there need be no further anxiety
about the Oregon, which will soon add its
big guns to the powerful armament of our
fleet.

THE OBJECT of this suit is to procure
i decree of divorce of the plaintiff
from the defendant.
The bill in substance states that the
parties were married in Prince Georges
county December 19th 1898, where they
have since resided; that the defendant has
committed adultery and on the 18th day
of April, 1898, left the plaintiffs home in
company with party named in the bill
and has gone to Philadelphia, State of
Pennsylvania, and is living with him in
illicit or adulterous intercourse.
That the plaintiffs conduct has been
without reproach.
1t is thereupon this 2Sth day of April,
1898, ordered by the Circuit Court for
Prince Georges county in Equity, that the
plaintiff by causing copy of this order
to be insertedin some newspaper published
in Prince Georges county, once in each
of four successive weeks before the 30th
day of May, 1898, give notice to the said
absent defendant of the object and sub
stance OF this bill warning her to be and
appear in this Court in person or by solic-
itor on or before the 10Th day of June,
1898, to show cause, if any she has, why
decree should not pass as prayed for.

If the Spanish fleet has returned to
Spain, as is now believed in official circles,
an entirely new phase of the war has been
suddenly presented to US The strained
suspense the county has felt during the
last week, because of the apparently inevi-
table battle between the greatest fleets of
the two nations, is now ended, and the
army must come to the front and win the
future victories of the war The govern
ment is moving with all possible expedi-
ton to land a sufficient force upon Cuba
to capture Havans, and when that shall
have been accomplished, a like movement
will doubtless be made upon Porto Rico,
unless some other unexpected phase of the
war shall be developed in the meantime

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON, d. c., May 9Th.

Mr.. EDIToR:-Patriotic enthusiasm
could scarcely go further than when 1t
caused Senator Hanna, who was present
when Secretary Long received Commodore
Dewey's official report of his remarkable
victory in Manila harbor, resulting in the
destruction of eleven Spanish ships, the
demolition of heavy shore batteries, and
the placing of the Philippine Islands I'M
der the stars and stripes, to propose three
cheers for Dewey, They were given with
a will by the crowd gathered in the Navy
Department, including many newspaper
men and Senator Tillman. But even more
astonishing than Commodore Dewey's re-
port that his victory was won without the
loss of a man, or the injury of IA ship, and
with only six men wounded, was what fol-
lowed. Senators Tillman and Hanna, two
men as widely different in everything as
could possibly be brought together locked
arms and walked over to the White House
to talk over the glorious and eXtraordi-
nary victory with Mr.. Mckinley After
seeing that the most of US are prepared
for any sort of miracle.
Secretary Long, in the name of the Presi-
dent, cabled Commodore Dewey his pro-
motion to Acting Admiral, and the thanks
of the people, and Congress is going to
pass the resolution reported from the
House naval committee rendering him the
thanks of Congress; also Il bill creating an
additional rear admiral i'll the navy, III or
der that the position can be given to Dewey
Orders have been issued for the forward
ing of ten thousand troops from San Fran
cisco to the Philippine Islands at the
earliest possible moment and present eX-
pectations are that they can be started by
the 18th inst. The Philippine Islands are
a bigger prize than most people suppose.
Their area is ten per cent. greater than
that of New England. New York, New
jersey, Maryland and Delaware combined,
and their estimated population is about
100000 900. The fact is not generally
known, either, that more than half of the
commerce of the islands is with the United
States.
The next important war news is expected
| to come from the vicinity of Cuba-it NAV
| come any hour. 1t is easier to get com
mission in tie volunteer army than it is to
| get direct hint from officials of either the
| War or the Navy Department, but they
| cannot disguise their expectancy. News
| is expected from Admiral Sampson fleet
which is believed to be in the vicinity of
| Porto Rico, and to be charged with the
double task of whipping the Spanish fleet,
| if it can be located and of capturing Porto
Rico. The first section of the army of in
vasion is known to be ready for embarka-
| ton and only awaiting the command to
! start for Cuba.
Camping grounds for twenty-five or
! thirty thousand men have been selected in
| Virginia. several miles from Washington,
and this week that portion of the volun-
tcer army which is to be modified in the
vicinity Of the National Capital will begin
to arrive.

THE WHEAT MARKET

The scarcity of wheat abroad where it
is the ostcnsible cause of riots in Spain
and Italy, is reflected in the high prices re-
corded in New York Tuesday In that
market May wheat sold at 81 so and 81 81
per buShel, which figure is to be compared
with so cents a bushel at the same date
last year. On the 25th of January of the
present year May options were selling at
from 95 to 80 cents bushel, and the price
was about the same as late as March 18th.
The demonstrated shortness ofthe world
supply and the manipulations Of specula-
tors began soon after the latter date to
tell on the price. Letter, CT Chicago, es-
tablished corner" by buying many mil
lions of bushels to be delivered in May,
and the abnormal price now being paid
for that option is due chiefly, it appears,
to his disposition to get his profits. The
shorts have contracted to deliver to him
some millions of bushels at from S. to %
cents a bushel, and they are now buying
from him to fill contracts with him at such
fancy prices as he may choose to fix. July
wheat, in which Letter is said to have no
interest, sold Tuesday at from S123 to
S131&: September wheat at from So cents
to 81; December wheat at from IS to 90
cents
The wheat market at the Chamber of
Commerce, Baltimore, Wednesday devel-
oped decline of about six cents over the
price on Tuesday. This was attributed to
selling by persons who desired to realize
profits in sight and an easing up in the
foreign demand. At the close of the mar
ket May wheat was quoted at S1.39 a
bushel, against As, which was asked on
Tuesday.

SenatorW ellington and Judge McComas
spent considerable time at the War De-
partment Wednesday afternoon exertin q
their influence to secure some staff APP
polntments in the army for Maryland
The two gentlemen were most anxious for
appointments as colonel or lieutenant
colonel. There has been such pressure
from all over the country for these APP
pointments that they had to be satisfied
with the promise of three majors The
gentlemen nominated by them for posi-
tions are J. c. Mullken, Noble H. Creager
and II. kyd Douglas. The two former
were in the federal army and the latter in
the Confederate army.

As Southern men and Southern taxes
are doing their full part in the present
war.we think it a timely suggestion of the
Philadelphia Record that the flags Of the
Southern States that were surrendered at
the close of the war between the States, be
returned to the States to which they be-
longed. But it cannot be forgotten that
when Mr. Cleveland issued an order for
the return of those flags, he was scared
into revoking it by the expressed hope of
the G. A. R., endorsed by the whole re-
publican party, that his heart, brain and
hand might be paralyzcd
