Havans, March 9.-Dark hints at
the probable fate of the Montgom-
cry, which arrived in Havana harbor
this morning, and significant chances
in the direction of the muddy bay,
in which lies the wreck of the Maine,
are the latest developments of Span
ish venom. The certainty that q
feet of torpedo boats is on the way
to Cuba and preparations are being
made to send couple OF battleships
aud q few more cruisers this way
makes the Spaniards boastfal Of
SPANS naval superiority.
The ease with which the Maine
was destroyed is confirmation of this
opinion, and the presence in the
harbor of the armored cruisers and
battlsships alongside the Fern and
Manerove increase the feeling oil
insecurity and belief that Spanish
outrages would meet with no serious
rebuke.

Jay L Torrey, of Wyoming to Pres
ident and also to the commanding

as a reason why they should be call
ed into service, and pointed out the
fact that they are hardy men and
perfect horsemea, able to cope with
all difficulties and competent to tlke
care of themselves under all circum.
stances. The president expressed
his thanks without making any
promises, but assured both Senator
Warren and Judge Torrey that in
any case OF necessity the cowboys
would be remembered.
The commanding general said of
the cowboys: The services Of such
regiment would be invaluable to the
government. The cowboys are able
in pre-eminent degree to take care
Of themselves and always know
where they are; why, you can not
lose one Of them-no, not even in a
blizzard. They are the best horse
men in the world ard do not know
