SENATOR SPooNER is not constituted
to be fit antagonist of Senator Tillman,
as Spooner Is argumentative and logical
while Illlman is denunclatory and vitu-
peratlve. But Spooner made the South
Carolinian crlnge in debate this week.
He tried to inject the bond question in
the Cuban debate and called upon Spoon
er to reply. He did so with spiri. and
characterized Iillman's remarks as indie
cent. 1t is difficult to make man OF
Illlman's coarseness vince, but he did SO

ROBBED HEN BOOSTS.

East North Yarmouth, April 13.-Last
Saturday a party of six young miscreants
of Portland made their debut at East
North Yarmouth. They beat their way
over the Grand Trunk from Portland
to New Gloucester, then drifted back to
East North Yarmoth, arriving there
about meal time. Immediately taking
possession of pasture they proceeded to
build fire, and then called at neigh
boring poultry house and borrowed (?) a
hen and a pail of eggs while the owner
was absent. The fowl was dressed in
dne time and while the same was being
roasted for the proposed banquet the
festivities of the gang were suddenly in
terrupted by the owner of the aforesaid
property who CHANGED to cross their
path. The hen was put in one direction
and the marauders put in another. Later
in the day one of the patry was caught
but was released after having given the
names of all those in the gang. 1t is
understood that it is the intention of the
owner of the property to commence
legal proceedings against these parties
unless settlement is promptly made.

SPAIN BUYS TWO LINERS.

energy.

Warrington. April 18.-Spain's two
which recently arrived at Porto Rico
from Havana, have sailed again from
Porto Rico 1t is understood their desti-
nation is the Caps Verde Islands.
. Not'only is Spain desperately pushing
the completion Of men -of-war, in antici
patton of hostilities, but she has also pur-
chased the Normannia and Columbia
from the Ham burg American line. The
purchase of these vessels has been official
~ confirmed, and it is understood that
batteries and crews for these vessels have
been collected at Cadiz, to which point
they have been ordered.
The Normannia has displacement of
~, 500 tons and the Columb ia displace
ment of $500 tons. Both ships have a
maximum speed Of nineteen knots an
hour Information in the possession of
the navy department. shows that each ship
will have an armament consisting of
eight s. 9-inch rapid firing guns. four
4. finch guns, two 4-inoh quick frers,
two six Founders quick fire. and fourteen
machine guns. The German government
had two 20 ton torpedo tubes and sixteen
torpedoes stored for each vessel, and it is
supposed in naval circles that Spain will
obtain these and place. them on the ships.
Spain has bought the merchant steamer
San Ignario also, and has converted her
into hospital ship. The department has
been informed that Spain is continuing
negotiations for men-of-war in France
and England and it is believed that she
is dickering with Argentina
In withdrawing the armored cruisers
Vizcaya and Cquendo from western
waters Spain has acted in almanner which
is approved by naval experts when think
ing of her interests. At the Caps de
Verde Islands, they will join the armored
cruisers Cristobel Colon and the Infanta
Maria Teresa, which are en- route to that
place, and the first torpedo boat flotilla,
which, it Is officially stated. consists of
the transport steamer Cludad de Cadiz,
torpedo boat destroyers Furor, Terror and
Pluton and torpedo boats Ariete, Azor
and Rsyo.
1t is appreciated by the officials that the
union of this four armored cruisers and
the fotilla make formidable force, but
it is, OF course, impossible to prevent it
at This time. 1t had been hoped by the
otficiala that the American fleet would be
able to catch and destroy the Vizcaya and
Oquendo before they could rejoin the re-
mainder of the Spanish fleet, and 1T Is
admitted that Spain acted with good
Judgment in directing them to proceed to
the Cape de Verde Islands.

SPAIN DETERMINED.

London, April 1.-The Madrid CORE
spondent Of the Daily Mail telegraphing
at 1ys o'clock. Wednesday evening says:
Lieutenant General Correo, minister
Of war and Count Xiquena, minister Of
public works, both told me this afternoon
that the government was firmly resolved
to repel every attack direct or indirect on
the sovereignty of Spain in Cuba.
"They said also that they were sure this
line of conduct on the part of Spain
would certainly be supported by the
European powers more especially because
the negotiations were based on an
acknowledgement of Spanish sovereignty
in Cuba.
"Thcy told me that the conduct of
Spain would be adjusted to that of the
United States and that in the face of the
fact of the continuance of military and
naval preparations in the United States
Spain was fully justified in carrying on
her preparations Finally the ministers
said to me: Our resolution at the cabinet
council was taken unanimously and we
shall maintain it with all tho necessary

KEY VEST ON auI vIv=.
Waiting for Next Move on international
Chess Board.

Key West, April 13.-Xev West with it's
eehiporariiy increased population is on
the qui vlve of expectancy and hungry
for news OF the next move on the inter-
national chess board. Opinions vary as
to the outcome, many people holding the
belief that. following the deseive attitude
of Congress, Spain realizing that she has
no alternative but war, will sacrifice all
to avoid resort to arms especially be-
cause the Spanish fleet is SO scattered as
to require much time for concentration
about CUBA, Where hostilities are most
likely to occnr The majority, however,
consider Spain has delayed too long to
withdraw and believe IA conflict is now
inevitable.
There Is much speculation here over the
departure of the Spanish officials, Consul
Rafaelseco and Vice Consul T NJ Fer
nandez. who, after leaving theil effects
with Mr.. Taylor, the British vice consul
sailed on the steamer Mascotte for the
North last night. MI TAYLOR ayers he
does not know their destination nor
whether they have been recalled The

New York for Havana with crude oil, put

The harbor is still dotted with warsbips.
and the white clad "Jacks" can easily be
seen drilling from the shore. Steam
launches are fitting about The docks also
present an animated scene Some ship is
always coa.ing there or loading stores.
The Fern has been painted the war
color and loft for Tampa this morning to
fetch some ammunition which is coming
from the North for the fleet.
Resident Key West especially the
Cuban portion of it, was much stirred up
today and divided, some of the Cubans
shouting and singing patriotic songs and
others looking much more seriously upon
the result of the possible breach between
the United States and Spain A cake
bulletined announcing that an order had
been issued by President Mckinley for
the enrolment of all Cuban Americans
ON the West Indian Keys, between the
ages of eighteen and forty-tive to form
battalion for the army Of Cuban occupa-
ton, caused deep and far from praise
worthy emotions in the breasts of many
of the "patriots" Of Cuba.
News regarding the movement of troops
is anxiously awaited and a good deal of
the criticism which has arisen on this
subject is doubtless due it is said, to lack
of information. Some of the officers in
high command think the government will
only disclose it's plans at the last moment,
when war is inevitable, for fear of i'm
portant facts which might be utilized,
coming to the knowledge of the Spanish
agents. s9T
