powers in favor of peace are prema-

men are prepared to seize the first
opportunity to end the war, providing
it can be done on terms honorable
to Spain.
Should a neutral nation come for
ward with an honorable arrangement
its proposals would be examined here

If, therefore, America does not insist
upon impossible humiliations, there is
a possibility of peace being negotiated.

MONTEREY'S VOYAGE.

WASHINGTON, May 23.-Naval Off
Gals have calculated to their entire
satisfaction the possibility of getting
the Monterey safely across the Pacific
to Admiral Dewey's squadron at Ma
Mia. The principal difficulty in MAX
ing such a trip as this is the small
coal carrying capacity of vessels of
the Monterey type. She carries nor
maIIy go tons in her bunkers, which,
at her most economical rate Of steam
ing, would take her about 500
miles less than the distance from San
Francisco to Honolulu. In emergen-
cies such as the present it is possible
to store a good deal of coal on the
main deck, being placed in passage
ways and open spaces of the super
structure of the vessel. It is being
planned to coal the Monterey at the
CaroIines after her Honolulu supply
is exhausted.

ARMS AND FOOD FOR CUBANs

WASHINGTON, May 24.-OficiaI
information has been received at the
Cuban legation in this city of the sail
ing last Wednesday from Tampa of
the first important expedition of native
Cubans. The expedition, which sailed
on the steamer Florida, was organized
and commanded by General Jose Nor
let, whose preliminary report, sent as
the ship sailed, has just been re-
ceived here.
The expedition was far more impor-
tant than the number of men taken
along would indicate. The Florida car
ried a warlike cargo. In the hold were
piles of boxes holding no less than
10000 Springfield rifles, with enough
ammunition of the right caliber to
make them effective. There were also
rapid-ffre guns of the HOtchkiss type
for the insurgent artillery forces, with
plenty of shells. These arms will en-
able General Garcia, for whom they
are destined, not only to equip 10000
additional troops, but to supply his
own men with the ammunition of
which they have been in such urgent
need. He will also be able to form
and equip several batteries of light ar
tilIery with rapid-fre guns-a weapon
which has always proven effective in
the hands of the insurgents.
Besides the large consignment OF
guns and ammunition, the Florida car
ried supplies of food, clothing and
medicine for the insurgent army. There
are also seventy-five mules for the
formation of pack trains to transport
the supplies from the coast.

DEWEY IS MASTER.

HONG KONG, May "a. - Dewey
maintains a strict blockade and holds
Cavite and the arsenal, but has made
no attempt to land. The foreign Con-
suls hold frequent conferences with
him regarding the safety of non-com-
batants and private property.
A Spanish transport has been cap
tured and will be used in the United
States service. Troops are urgently
needed, but Dewey has ample supplies
and ammunition, and there is no dan
ger of a land attack.
The situation at Manila is desper-
ate Food is scarce and meat is ex-
hausted, while all the canned stuff is
nearly gone Two weeks fill exhaust
the available supply.
Spanish officials say that 500 were
killed and 700 wounded in the bonn
bardment by Admiral Dewey. All
classes are waiting anxiously the ar

is no sickness on the American ships.
