spy, sends the following to the Tribune
from Kingston, Jamaica:
Havana from the sea is almost i'm
pregnable. All the Notifications have
been or are being strengthened, and
work on them is pushed almost inces-
sanity. Havana is not starving. and is
not near 1t. There is enough food on
hand to last some time. There are
so, 900 troops in the city, apparently in
good conditiou. The esprit du corps is
excellent, and the soldiers all seem
anxious for fight. There is no yell

epidemic are not true.

LANDING MADE.
First Landing In Force on Cuba Sol

/
CAIMANERA BLoCKHoUsE, Guam
tanamo Harbor June 10; By dispatcl
boat Simpson to Mole St. Nicholas
June 1.-THE first landing in force by
Americans on Cuban soil was effected
here this afternoon. This dispatch il
written on the ruins of the Spanish
blockhouse, beneath the folds ofthe
Stars and Stripes.
Five minutes ago, at ten minutes
past two o'clock, to be exact. Color
Sergeant Richard Silvey. of company
G; First battalion of United States ma.
rines, of Brooklyn, N. Y, raised the
American flag above the still smoul-
dering logs of the fort.
AS it folds caught the breeze six
hundred men from the troop ship
Panther laid their csrbines, picks and
shovels, and tent poles aside to lift
their caps and join in q mighty shout
These six hundred men are swarmin 2
up from the beach to the block house
on the top of hill $50 feet high above
q small fishing village of half q dozen
houses which marked the entrance to
Guantanamo harbor. These houses
are now q mass of smoke and flames.
AS the marines landed the torch was
applied to them at the direction Of
their officers who are taking this and
all other precautions and safeguards
possible to prevent yellow fever from
breaking out among the men.
In the harbor to protect the landing
of the marines lay the cruisers Marble
head, Yankee, and Yosemite; the
battleship Oregon, the torpedo boat
Porter, the Dolphin, Vixen, Panther,
and q collier.
The landing was effected without the
necessity of Smelling the place as the
way was paved bv the Yankee and
Marblehead Tuesday when q Spanish
gunboat vas put to flight and the
blockhouse bombarded. The Oregon
and Dolphin joined the Marblehead
and Vixen here.
About noon the Panther, carrying
nine hundred sailors and marines, ar
rived under escort of the Yale and
Yosemite. All the vessels entered the
broad, open harbor and cast their
anchors. The small boats of the
Panther were at once lowered. and the
task of landing marines with tents and
supplies began immedia'ely.' With
out ceremony the frightened Spaniards
fed at the first sight of American war
ships coming up to the village.
At the entrance to the harbor was
the headquarters of the pilots. Like
all Cuban harbors this one is tortuous
and long. Guantanamo is Is miles in
land and only pilot homes, the cable
station, and the blockhouse are at the
entrance These houses the marines
found deserted.
The shells from the Yankee and
demolished the cable
One solid shot cut the wires
at the side of the buildings and another
had smashed the dry batteries and in
struments.
This landing is for establishment of
a naval base for the fleet, especially as
a coaling station. II is no place for
landing troops to operate against SAM
tiago, but will Ds used as rendezvous

The French troops at Tonquin were

But the question will now be asked
Granting that II Is possible to transmit
plain colors by telegraph. how Is Il
possible TO make these coloTs resolve
themselves into proper shapes? How
will we know that Il Ia the mans neck
tie that Is red or blue. and not bis coat
or his vest. To answer this. II must
FIRST be stated that the pair pf mirrors
In the transmltter and the pair OF mir
rors In the receiver move synchrOnous-
ly. That Is. they move or osclllate IN
perfect time II the lower mirror In
the transmltter assumed for a moment
an angle OF ass degrees. then the lower
mirror In the receiver assumed that
exact angle al the same instant. II
the upper mirror In the transmltter
momentarily assumed an angle Of ~ &c
degrees the upper mirror In the re-
ceiyer also assumed the angle Of i2.6
degrees at the same instant. In short.
the pairs OF the mirrors move together
in perfect time and in the same dlrec-
ton constantly. Now, II the two mir
rors In the transmitter happen to be at
certain angles when they send a refiec-
tion through the slit on the selenium.
II follows that II the reflection we're to
be returned TO those same mirrors
again through that same slit at the
same instant II would naturally spread
Itself over them In the same form that
II had when II first came from them.
In short. II the mirrors were In a posi-
ton at rest so that they could send a
triangle OF red light through the sll,
II would be impossible to send the red
light back again through the slit. and

a triangle. The mirrors would have to
be moved before the reflected light
could assume any other form than a
triangle Hence. as the mirrors In the

A poor Galleian school teacher is re-
ported TO have solved the problem over
which many leading scientists have la
bored In vain for years. II is announc-
ed that he has perfected an apparatus

and a detailed description OF the appa-
ratus shows that the performance Is,
after all. a very simple one.
An English patent attorney says that
Herr szczepanik. the inventor OF the
process, has been offered over $1,000
600 for the right TO exhibit the appara-
tus In the Paris exposition Of 1900. IL
is also said that the inventor perfected
his theory OF how images and eolors
could be sent by wire in one night. This
Is indeed wonderful. in view OF the
facts that Alexander Graham Bell has
been at work on a similar process ever
since he perfected the telephone, and
that Amstutz four years ago published
the results OF his very conclusive re-
searches in the field Of visual teleg-
raphy. However. the cardinal claim
made for the new invention Is that
moving images may readily be seen
hundreds OF miles away from the ini-
tial point OF transmission. and that
their colors are also reproduced very
naturally. II really partakes Of the
spirit OF that wonderful mirror Of fairy

merely in order to produce any wished
