left Kingston, Jamaica, two weeks ago
under the British flag, although she was
known TO be Spanish ship.
An endeayor was made by the American
scout ships to intercept her. 1t is under
stood she landed at Surgidero, "a small
town directly south of Havana, and con-
nectea with the eaptaip by rail-
There has been much talk of late in
Spanish newspapers that the American
blockade is ineffective and that Havana
is plentifully supplied with food Mr..
Robinson an English correspondent,
wrote that the people in Havana laughed
at the blockade. He also wrote the price
OF food had risen but little.
These stories are believed to have been
largely imaginative. Food has reached
the island, but not I'm great quantities.
President Mckinley and his advisers,
however. have decided that there shall
be not the slightest foundation for repre-
sentations that the blockade is ineffec-
tive
The announcement of a blockade of
San Juan was somewhat unexpected. 1t
is believed this means that the Porto
Rico campaign will begin soon.
1t is understood that the blockade is
already in operation. The proclamation
states that ii has been instituted. 1t is
supposed that two or three ships of Ad-
miral SIMPSONS fleet are now off San
Juan. This belief is strengthened by the
bulletin issued by the Navy Department
yesterday morning announcing a fight be-
tween the ST Paul and the Spanish tor
pedo boat destroyer Terror and Spanish
cruiser off San Juan last Wednesday.

A DereIict Sighted by the Liner La

New York, June 2S-Shipping men in
this city were puzzling today to identify
the derelict sighted bottom upward by
the French liner La Bourgogne That
great vessel has been lost, perhaps with
all on board. Is all that Is known.
Barks and ships bound TO this side, one
of which may be the lost vessel are as
follows: Bertha. from Antwerp: F'idelo
from Bremen; Theodore Fischer. Otto and
Aicedo, from Hamburg; Ellisland, Iver-
nell and Dominion from Hayre; An
dora, Shenandoah. Marie and Clwyd
from Liverpool, and the Pegasus. from
London.
Soon after the wreck was passed, last
Tuesday, La Bourgogne sighted a huge
iceberg. The liners officers put the two
together and conjectured that the wreck
was due to a collision with the iceberg.
The bottom of the dereIict was painted
white and was very clean, proving that il
had been out of dry dock only a short
time.
There was no floating wreckage near
from which a clew TO the sea mystery
could be derived

It is unusual for sailing vessels to take

but this vessel may have been carried out

If the vessel struck the iceberg it is
possible that the crew had time to lower
boats and get away. No boats were near

The news of the rapid advance of the

war experts here IL hardly seems posSi-
BILE to them that the Americans could
have done so much in so short a time
The task was a herculean one and should
have required at least week. But in
stead of making a slow but steady
march, the troops in advance, un-
der the indomitable leadership of
Gen. Wheeler. Col. Wood and Lieut.
Col. Roosevelt, made for the front with
eagerness and swept the enemy before
them. The Spanish outnumbered the
American vanguard very largely but
