WILL SEARCH FOR CARARA.
WATSON WILL not BOMBARD

SUCH IS THE CURRENT REPORT.
Havana Not Yot 10 BE Taken-war. How

A Washington special says: A dgni-
ficant statement was made to the Asso-
ciatod Press Friday by a gentleman in
position TO speak with knowledge and
authority as 10 tho plans Of the admin
istration in reference TO future war
operations. In substance, the state
ment was as follows:
"Commodore Watson, In proceeding
to the Spanish peninsular as soon as
the Porto Rioan expedition lie got un-
der way Is not 10 lombard the cities

Of bombardment Of the cost is enter
tanned. While there may be other in
cidental purposes, the main mission
Of Watson is TO take care Of Admiral
Camara's feet.
The movement of this feet and the
the fears and apprehensions caused by
reports concerning il are to be stopped
for all time. The ships under Camara
will be located by Watson and finally
met and engaged. The talk occasion
ally INDUCED in as to the Canary
islands is utterly without foundation.
This government has no plnn TO take
these islands and does not want them.
despite popular expectation that
Porto Rico operations will be followed
Immediately by action against Ha-
vana, it can be said that Havana will
not be attacked while yellow fever
conditions exist. This is certain.
No Advance On Havana Yet.
cit would be the height Of national
folly to engage our troops in and about
that fever pest hole. Consequently il
will be left until the climate lends il
aid in the autumn. Shafter will hold
his own in the eastern strip now sur
rendered, may gradually push his way
over some districts, and if there
should be any particular need of i'm.
mediate aggressive action at any
point, viii move against it, bat Ha.
vana will be left until yellow fever
dangers are past.
Meantime, in the next two months
there will be enough to keep this gov
eminent busy. We will have to cope
with the most serious problem yet, Of
providing for the government and tn,
future Of the lands involved in this
war. The hauling down of the Span
ish flag and the hosting Of that of th,
United States means more than on III
face it indicates to the popular mind.

W. B. Henderson, president Of the
Florida state board Of health, shown
published statements to the effect that
yellow yellow fever prevailed at Tampa,
said that if parties making the state
ment were within the borders of the
state he would see that the full penalty
of the law was melted out to them. He
says that he is still prepared to prove
by experts that there is no yellow fever
in Tampa and that there has been
none. He has the best fever experts

there has been a single case, and say
that the army physicians who reported
it knew nothing about fever.

Unusual interest has attached to
current forecasts OF the American
wheat crop of 1898. The recent
shortage of the worlds supplies, after
the two deficient foreign harvests Of
1897 and 1896, and the consequent
assured continuance Of foreign de-
mand at profitable prices, united to
show that American prosperity had
peculiar stake this year in the pro-
duction of an abundant crop, thinks the
New York Post. The one possibility
Of misfortune which has qualified the
views Of optimists has been the ever
existing chance Of deficient Ameri-
can harvest, and this possibility is
now in large degree removed. The
Agricultural Department has pub
lished it's estimate for the growing
crops and forecasts may be made with
safety. The Government estimate
shows, as was to be expected after the
seasons high prices, great increase
IN planted acreage of wheat For the
early and late crops combined, the
estimated area is 43, 600, 600 acres, as
compared with SO, 465, 900 acres har-
vested last year, 84,61s,O 900 in 1896,
and only SO, GIG, 500 even in the cree
ord year" 1891. In other words, the
planted acreage under wheat this year
Is By far the largest in our history.

BRITISH SHIP CAUGHT.

She Was Taken as a Prize For Trying
to Run the Blockade.
The British steamer, Regulus, of
about 1900 tons, was captured by the
United States auxiliary gunboat Hawk
nineteen miles from Sagua la Grande,
province Of Santa Clara, and was
taken to Key West. She had landed
a cargo at Sagua la Grande and was
coming out when taken. The Hawk
hailed her by megaphone and told her
she was a prisoner for running the
BLOCKADE.
No protest was made to this and
Ensign Schofelds was put aboard with
prize crew.

1t isnot quite right to look closely
at the working Of a note penned in a
time Of great sorrow, but surely at.
tention may be called to the peculiar
use Of foreign countries" in the fol.
lowing, which appears in the London
papers: lowing to the overwhelm-
ing multitude of messages Of sympathy
received by Mrs. Gladstone and her
family from all parts of the British
Empire, from the United States, and
from foreign countries, they are
obliged to ask all, whether private in
diyiduals or members of public bodies,
whom they may not be able personally
to thank, to accept their heartfelt
gratitude, expressed through the
medium and by the courtesy of the
press. Mrs. Gladstone feels deeply
the kindness showered upon her,
which neither she nor her sons and
daughters can ever forget" The
United States, it will be seen, are not
numbered with lands alien to the
English people.

I have been here before, but I wanted

Swinging windows above the second
story on al new buildings are required
by building ordinance lately passed
in Chicago. The avowed purpose OF
the new law is the prevention of fatal
accidents in washing windows, now SO
frequent. The law says that the win
dow must swing on horizontal or YER
ical pivots, OF q balcony must be built
in front of every window. The law is
objected to by,architects and builders,
who claim that it was passed in the in
terest of the owners of patents on
swivel windows. It is also objected
that the size of windows will have to
be reduced owing to wind pressure,
and they predict that fatal accidents
will result from falling window sash.
In many of the recent high Office build
ings of New York City staple is Sc
cured to each side of every window
opening, and the window cleaners
wear stout belts, to each side of which
is attached strap. A suitable clip
on the end of each strap enables it to
be readily attached to the staples on
either side, and the straps have slack
enough to permit the free movement
of the window cleaner.
