Naval Officers Puzzled About That
Much-Talkcd-Of Cadiz Fleet,

Naval Officers Puzzled About That
Much-Talkcd-Of Cadiz Fleet.
Washington, June 15.-The Spanish
CadiZ fleet is almost as much Of mys-
terry to the naval officers here as was
Admiral Cervera's flying squadron
during the two weeks Immediately
preceding the inglorious bottling up at
Santiago. Yesterday a report came
that the squadron was unfit for sea.
That would have been credited except
the department has had information as
late as Saturday to the effect that the
squadron was all ready for sea and
was about to depart. About a week
before that it had been told that the
Cadiz fleet had sailed. Having in
mind these conflicting reports that the
war board scarcely knows where to
give credence, though it would seem
to be an traordinary circumstance
that the least doubt could exist as to
the presence in, or absence from, the
harbor Of a popular city such as Ca
dix Of a whole squadron Of warships.
However, the weight of opinion seems
to incline to the presence of the fleet at
Cadiz, owing to the bad condition of
the ships. It may be noted, however,
that although acting upon this belief
as shown by the beginning of the mill
tary invasion of Cuba, the war board
is taking no unnecessary chance of a
surprise.

SPANIARDS STARVING.
Terrible Suffering Mt Santiago
Guerrillas Deserving in Droves.

Guerril1as Deserving in Droves.
Kingston, Jamaica, June 15-While
the work of arming and feeding the
insurgents is being pushed vigorously
the Spaniards in Santiago are reported
suffering from an incipient famine,
and Cuban officer off shore Eester-
day, asserted that the guerrillas were
deserving in force to the insurgents.
Yesterday Lieut.. Commander Dele
haney, with the gunboat Suwanee,
armed 5000 Cubans with rifles, ammu-
milton and machetes. To-day he land
ed 5000 rifles, 100000 rounds of ammu-
milton, a large consignment of mach
etes, quantity of medicine and sew
eral tons of bread and bacon. The
rebels are very active, expressing the
confidence and promising to maintain
a close blockade of Santiago on the
land side. Strict supervision is exer-
cised in the landing of arms and sup
plies, and nothing is given an insur-
gent camp beyond what it can success
fully defend against any possible
Spanish foe. The insurgents represent
their numbers rapidly increasing.
Certainly they have shown their abil-
ity in the neighborhood Of Guantana-
mo, where they have got possession of
the railroad and telegraph termini.
The fine harbor will make a good
American base. The insurgents say
they watched Mondays bombardment
from the hills at the rear of Santiago,
that as many as 800 Spaniards were
killed and several hundred wounded.
Terrible execution was wrought by the
tWelve-inch shells of the Texas. If
their statements can be relied upon the
Spanish garrison at Santiago is on
half-rations and the town itself is even
worse off, the military authorities re-
fusing to sell citizens provisions at any
price. The insurgents predict that a
famine will cause the speedy capitula-
ton of Santiago.

Agreement eRached Regarding the
81 Hawaiian Resolution. $3.50
The feature Of yesterdays session of
the house was the securing of an
agreement to consider and vote upon
the Newland resolution to annex
Hawaii. Beginning to-day, the debate
will proceed until 5 o'clock next
Wednesday afternoon, when a vote
will be taken. The annexationists
came determined to force considera-
ton and for three hours the opposition
filibustered. Consideration of the res
Olutions could have been prevented,
as, under the rules, a recess until the
evening pension session necessarily
would have been taken at o'clock,
but"it was plain that the annexation
lists. would win their victory to-day.
Realizing this, and knowing the reso-
lutions would pass and go to the coun-
try, involving prominent issue, the
opposition treated Tor liberal debate,
and their demands were readily grant
ed. Eight Democrats voted with the
annexationists in the movement to
force consideration of the resolutions,
they being Messrs. Berry of Kentucky,
Deyries OF California, Livingston of
Georgia, Brucker Of Michigan, Cum
mings of New York, Sulzer of New
York, Nohslage of New York and
Cochran of Missouri. 1t is claimed at
least twenty Democrats will favor the
passage of the resolutions.
The bill, to enable volunteer soldiers
to vote at congressional elections was

ures chiefly Of private nature, were

Washington, June II. - For nearly
two hours the senate had under dis
cusson the resolution of Mr.. Lodge di-
recting the claims committee to make
an inquiry as to the disposition of the
money appropriated by congress to
pay the claim of the book concern of
the Methodist Episcopal Church South.
A heated colloquoy between Mr.. Chan
dlef and Mr.. Pascoe was the feature
of the discussion. Mr.. Chandler said
THAI Mr.. Pascoe was unwittingly and
unVillingly the agent through which a
deception had been practiced upon the
senate. Mr.. PascOe demanded the
withdrawal Of the statement but Mr..
Chandler insisted that it was correct
and refused to withdraw it, although
he disclaimed any intention to reflect
upon Mr.. Pascoe's honor. The resolu-
ton probably will be called up again
tomorrow. At 2 o'clock the considera-
ton of the bill providing for the incor-
poration of the International American
bank was begun. The measure was
still under discussion when the senate
adjourned.
Hawaiian Debate in the House.
The debate on Hawaiian annexation
continued in the house, ten speeches
being made. Very little interest was
manifest either upon the floor or in the
galleries, few occupants Of the latter
being present, and the attendance upon
the floor hardly exceeding at any time
forty members.

erS of the Pacific Coast, -


ers of the Pacific Coast. -..~
At the session of the senate Mr.
Carter of Montana, in connection with
the rejection by the government of the
steamship Centennial as a transport,
made some ugly charges against the
ship owners Of the Pacific coast. He
said they had been endeavoring to
hold up the government and compel it
to pay inordinate and extortionate
charges for ships to be used to trans
port troops to the Philippines. Mr..
Perkins of California denied the state
ments Of Mr.. Carter, declaring that
the vessel owners Of San Francisco
had placed their ships at the disposal
OF the government at a rate fully SO
per cent less than they usually re-
ceived for them. Mr.. Lodge of Massa-
chusetts made some sensational dis
closures concerning the disposition of
the money appropriated by congress a

of the book concern Of the Methodist

duced a resolution directing the claims
committee to make an investigation of
the matter and report to the senate

Washington, June 11.-Short]y after
4 O'Clock in the afternoon the confer

was agreed to by the senate after a
discussion lasting four hours The de-
bate upon the measure was without
special interest and was entirely de-
void of acrimonious features. It was
foregone conclusion that the report
would be agreed to, and the only
question of interest involved was how
soon vote could, be reached. The de-
bate Indicated generally that the bill,
as agreed upon by the conferees, was
reasonably satisfactory to everybody,
except as to the bond provision. The
votes cast against the adoption of the
report reflected the opinions of those
senators who are opposed to any in
