SIGSBEE IN WASHlNGTON
Captain of the Lost Maine is Wei
coined by his Neighbors.

Washington, March 29.-Cap-
tain Sigsbcc, of the wrecked
Maine, arrived this morning from
Havana at 7 IL o'clock, accompa
MED by Paymaster Ray, Chief
Engineer Howell, Naval Cadet
Holden and DR. Heneberger. The
captain was Immediately driven
home. His neighbors on both
sides of the square on which he
lives, had profuseIy decorated their
residences with flags and bunting.
The captain went to the navy de.
partment and reported his arrival,
and in the course of conversation
SAID re had not yet received any
assignment to duty. He would
be ready, however, as soon as he
could get his wardrobe replenish
ed, to 90 anywhere.

Another Warning.

The war scare should Lave
moro interest TO the Southern
farmers than to any other class of
people in the United States. If
war comes, higher prices for corn,
meal, flour bacon and all food
stuifs will come with it. The
Southern farmer who does not
produce enough for himself, his
family and his stock to eat will
surely suffer. There's no doubt
about il. Our farmers have been
warned in time. If they do not
raise wheat, oats, corn, barley,
vegetables, hogs and cattle in
abundance this year they will have
only themselves to blame. -

THE ANONYMOUS LETTER
The Alleged Plot to Blow Up the
Maine as Detailed in a Letter
Sent to Consul General
Lee-Thiee Men, the
Letter Says, Did the
Job for IS, 900.

Washington, March 20. The
most interesting feature of the
published report of the Maine
testimony issued from the Gov
ernment Printing Office today,
was the famous anonymous letter
mentioned in the evidence of
Henry Drain, the clerk of the
American consulate ut Havana.
The letter was received by Gen
eral Lee a few days after the
Maine disaster. 1t is dated Feb
ruary 10th, 1898, and signed
"An Admirer. 1t is in Spanish
written by n fairly well educated
person. The certified translation
is as follows:

Colored Troops Wanted.

A special from Washington to
the New York Herald says that IN
the event of the necessity of de
failing United States troops for
the invasion and occupation of
Cuba during the rainy season, it
is probable Chat the main BODY Of
the army will he composed of
colored troops. Such II plan,
adds the special, is being scrl-
ousIy considered by the war de
partment and should the number
OF colOrcd soldiers now in the re.
guIar service be insufficient. the
department has assurances that
an adequate number of colorcd
volunteers from the southern
states can be counted on.
