BLANCONEEDS AMMUNITION

Spanish Fleet May Make Desperate At
tempt to Relieve Him.
WASHINGTON, May Examinations
have been received here that Captain
General Blanco at Havana is very short
of ammunition, in which case the pow.
erful batteries at the entrance of Ha-
vana harbor would be deprived of a
large part Of their defensive strength.
This state Of affairs may lead to some
desperate attempts at blockade running
on the part of the Spaniards in the
hope of getting more ammunition into
Havana. 1t is believed that the sup.
plies so frequently referred to as being
on the Spanish flying squadron were of
this character rather than food sup.

coed in keeping Admiral Cervera from
reaching Havana or Cienfuegos or any
port in Cuba connected with Havana
by rail-
Commodore Schley probably is well
down on the Florida coast now and
should be able to guard the Florida
straits shortly. His appearance on
that side of Cuba would enable Samp.
son to bring his ironclads with perfect
safety into Cienfuegos on the south
side, and with this disposition of our
naval force it is hard to see how the
Spanish feet can escape from the
Gulf of Mexico or the Caribbean sea.

BRUSH FIRES PREVAIL.

Villages of Northern Minnesota Exposed
to Great Danger.
DULUTH. May 17.-Small brush fires
that have been burning on all sides of
Duluth north of the Wisconsin line are
rapidly becoming more threatening.
During the day 100000 feet of Nor.
way pine, ~ miles south of Tower,
was burned by flames that crept up
from the underground. The mill,
which, with the lumber, belonged to
Alex McLaren of Chippewa Falls, was
saved. Fires are burning in the brush
along both range roads, the Duluth,
Superior and Western and the St..
Paul and Duluth. Unless rain falls
soon wind is likely to fan the flames
and drive them into the woods and
villages and cause heavy damage.
