The Former Came In For Coal and
Water at San Diego.
SAN DIEGO, CAL, June 1.-THE u. S.
S. Monterey and her coal consort, the
Brutus, supposed to be speeding on their
way toward Honolulu and Manila,
were sighted at noon yesterday steam
ing south toward San Diego at a good
rate of speed, the Monterey leading.
They arrived off the harbor mouth and
separated, the Brutus going about five
miles south and anchoring near Ooron-
ado island, while the Monterey came in
rapidly and dropped her anchor off the
coal bunkers, and a great crowd being
on the wharf to receive them. Pay
master Rogers stated briefly that they
had simply come in here for coal and
water and would sail this afternoon at
high tide for Honolulu.
Officers stated that they met heavy
weather the second day out and lost
overheard So tons, which was secured
in the netting on the Monterey's decks.

WASHINGTON, June II. = Assistant
Secretary of War Meiklejohn said last
night that it was probable the first part
of the next expedition to the Phil
ippines would leave San Francisco for
Manila today. The transports which
will convey the troops to Manila are
Ohio, Indiana, Colon, Morgan City,
China and Para. The expedition will
consist of about 5000 men, and with 1t
will be taken large quantity of am
munition and supplies.
The first part of the expedition,
which is expected to leave today, will
be followed early next week by the re-
mainder, so that by the 18th of July the
entire expedition may be either landed
or in readiness to land near Manila.

AGREED TO VOTE.
Hawaiian Annexation to Be Considered
and Acted Upon In the House.

and Acted Upon In the House.
WASHINGTON, June 1.-THE feature
of the session Of the house yesterday
was the securing of an agreement to
consider and vote upon the Newlands
resolution to annex Hawaii. Begin
ming today, the debate will proceed IN
til O'Clock next Wednesday afternoon,
when vote will be taken The an
nexationists came yesterday determined
to force consideration and for three
hours the opposition fibustered.
Consideration of the resolutions yes
terday could have been prevented, as
under the rules recess until the even
ing pension session necessarily would
have been taken at 5 O. clock, but it was
plain that the annexationists would win
their victory today. Realizing this,
and knowing the resolutions would pass
and go to the country involving an is
sue, the opposition treated for liberal
debate, and their demands were granted
readily. Eight Democrats voted with
the annexationists in the movement
yesterday to force consideration of the
(Ky.) }, Deveys (Cal.), Livingston (Ga.),
and Vohslage IN. " and Cochran
(Mo.).
1t is claimed at least 20 Democrats
will favor the passage of the resolu-
tons.
The bill to enable volunteer soldiers
to vote at congressional elections was
passed, and a number of minor meas
ures, chiefly of private nature, were
considered.

WASHINGTON, June 11.-Out of the
maze of doubt and contradiction as to
the dispatch of the first army Of inya-
sion to Cuba one thing stands out clear
ly, namely, that the government, feel
ing strong IN its present position and
plan, is moving cautiously and with the
elaboration which it believes will Sc
cure success unattended with disasters
With this main purpose in view the
army and navy are cooperating toward
the dispatch of the troops, some 20, 900
in mum Der, under escort of strong
fleet of naval conveys made up up of Is
warships, headed by the battleship In
diana. Unattended by this strong fleet
the troops might have left yesterday a
week ago, when one strong naval con-
voy was ready for this service. Since
then, however, reports have come as to
the presence of Spanish ships in the
North Atlantic.
Realizing that nothing was to be
gained by haste and that the war was
progressing steadily towards success, it
was determined not to take the one
small chance of having our troop trans
ports menaced by some scouting ship of
the enemy. As result the troop trans
ports have not proceeded to Cuba.
They are in readiness to go, but will
not move until the naval convoy is
ready to accompany them, assuring
safe conduct from Florida to the point.
of destination.
The war department positively de-
clines to say when the forces will move,
and there is authority for the statement
that any reports purporting to give the
hour or day when this formidable flo
tilla of invasion will start is not only
unwarranted, but meets with the most
vigorous official condemnation. The
administration feels that the time has
come when it is of utmost Importance
that the precise movements of this in
vading fleet should not be published in
this country and thus heralded to the
enemy
The completeness with which the
transport of troops has been planned is
shown in the official list of transport
vessels given out at the war depart
ment yesterday. OF this list 81 large
steamships, varying from 4, 100 tons
down to 600 tons, are at Florida ports
ready to carry our troops to the point of
invasion. There are some IS other
craft, including vessels suitable for
conveying fresh water, stores, ETC., and
for hghtering the troops and stores
from the ships to the beach when the
debarkation begins.
The entire transport fleet of
about so steamships, augmented by the
fleet of naval conveys, Is in number,
will make formidable marine process
sion, exceeding in magnitude the nota-
BILE spectacle of the naval review during
the Worlds fair year.

NOT READY FOR PEACE.
Mr.. Balfour's Reply as to Whether Eng
land Has Moved to Inter-
vene In the War.

LONDON, June lin the house of
commons A. j. Balfour, first lord of the
treasury and government leader, yes
terday replying to question as to
whether, ''in view of the condition of
the population of Cuba and the suffer
ings and evils arising from the Spanish
American war, her majesty's govern
ment or any the European powers have
any intention of intervening to secure
cessation of hostilities by inducing one
or both belligerents to negotiate terms
of peace said;
''Her majesty's government will
gladly take any favorable opportunity
for promoting a cessation of hostilities
and negotiations for peace, but any ac-
ton on their part for this purpose can
only be undertaken if there is reason
able prospect that it will be well re-
ceived by both parties and of its being
likely to lead to an agreement between
them.

This the Advice Given by an English
Newspaper.

LONDON, June 1.-THE st. James
Gazette yesterday published long edi-
torial pointing out the hopelessness of
any further Spanish resistance and sug-
gests the Americans seek settlement
of the Cuban question in Spain. 1t
says:
fsThere is no need of an invasion, but
the mere presence of a strong arma-
ment which the Spanish navy could not
drive off, on the coast, would produce a
tremendous effect and there are numer
GUS nnfortified anchorages where the
Americans could recoal with leisure.
.Of course there are powers in Europe
who would witness the operation with
great disgust, but if the Americans are
going to be frightened by the vague
abstraction called Europe they must be
very tirnid Let them consult the sui
tan and remember that England is
their Russia for the time being"
