Sloops Captured.

Off SANTIAGO, June II. On Tues
day while working u miles from San
tiago, Commander Dclhanty of the Suw-
anee saw two sloops trying to run up
the river.
The guns of the Suwanee were i'm
medateIy turned upon them and several
shots were fired.
AS soon as the firing commenced the
sloops made their best time towards the
shore, where the crews of both deserted.
The sloops were easily captured.
Each had a Spanish flag and one of
them had helograpA for signalling so
that it is thought the capture is one of
much importance. The general opinion
is that the sloops were about to signal to
some of the Spanish forces near there.
They were both taken as spoils OF
war. One of them was sunk and the
other presented to to the Cubans,

Since the disastrous fire on Monday
evening, when the large granite plaht
of Mackie. Hussey T. Co. was burned 10

steamer Twickenham which was cap
,ured by the st. Louis June 10 off
Kingston when it was supposed to be
in the act of carrying supplies to the
snaniards arrived here this morning in

on board 5000 tons Of coal and pas

of the Spanish government as her ac'

were considered very suspicious an'
it was thought that at the time OF the
capurc she was in the very act OF con
vcyinr coal to the Spanish.

Montana soldier courtmarti.I.d.

Butte, Mont, Aug. 22.-Private Ed
Moran, of company c. Montana regi-
ment, writes to relatives in Butte from
Honolulu that he had been courtmar-
tailed and sentenced to two years inn
prisonment at Alcatraz military prison
in California, for striking Lieutenant
John f. Mercer of the same company,
and had been recommended for dishon-
orable discharge also. A courtmartial
has been ordered for Lieutenant Mer-
GER
Moran writes that the lieu tenant
was crazy drunk at Honolulu, and
abused and insulted him, whereupon
he knocked the officer down.
Moran is the man who acted as
spokesman for the Montana soldiers
who struck against the foul rations
furnished them in camp at San Fran
cisco. and refused to drill until their
rations were improved. For that
offense Moran was reduced from the
rank of corporal and transferred to
another company. Prominent state
and federal officials have already been
appealed to to use their influence in
Dung Moran's behalf.

to your telegram about overcrowding

Ives, member of the board. states it
was not overcrowded Accommodations
for officers were. however, somewhat
deficient. The large number of
deaths can probably be accounted for
by the fact that this brigade took
nearly all their sick with them; great
est care has been taken in this respect.

from 200 to 300 men less than the same

Omaha, August 2l.-Since the well

Of May. it has been matter for won

gunners were able to destroy Spanish
squadron in a Spanish harbor without
the loss of single American life
When history repeated itself at
Santiago two months later the wonder
was intensified.
In the Government Building at the
Trans Mississippi Exposition is an ex-
hibit which in a measure explains the
mystery. This Is a naval range finder.

does not involve a mathematical calcu-

time lost, and in most cases they find
it quicker to get the range by actual
experiment The Spaniards, for in

fora fhax- aar he of ~
Uncle Sans ships If their first shot
falls short they try again and then
they are apt to overshoot, and by that
time the position of the vessels may
have been altered and they are still at
sea. Meanwhile the officer in the con-
ming tower of the American ship has
located them almost exactly with this
instrument and reported the range by
telephone to the various gun captains.
This has only consumed few seconds.
and while the Spaniards are still try
ing to get their range the shells from
the American guns are sweeping their
decks.
1.-The peculiar thing about the in
strument, is that while it is one of the
simplest things in the world to any
one who knows its secret, the most
expert mechanic or inventor might
examine it as long as he wanted to and
still be unable to discover how it
works This is why representatives
of other navies have been completely
baff1ed in their efforts to find it out

All along the line, on piers, on sheds,
houses, and every possible point OF
vantage, people were packed. The
river craft. crowding the warships
close, were jammed with passengers,
sinking the sides of the vessels almost
to their guard rails on one side, giving
the impression that even the ships
themselves bowed in Unconscious salute
