THE PROGRESS OF THE WAR

H URING the past week the land fighting in l Il J Cuba began vigorously the part ot our - troops and was met by guerrilla resistance on the part of the Spaniards. contest resulted of sui hcient importance to be heralded the first land battle of the war, though when measured by the mighty conflicts of our civil strife it would hardly | have been noted skirmish. The advance of our troops was checked for hardly more than an hour and have Santiago invested on the land side as we'll as bockaded by sea.
 According to the reports the advance of our troops largely aided by the forces of the Cubans. They co-operated with considerable effect and managed to hold the attention of large number of Spanards thus preventing consolidation of the entire Spanish force against advance guard. These reports of Cuban activity encouraging for however ineffi- cient the insurgents might be in open pitched bat tle 1t IS unquestlonabe they be of vast service n watching and harassing any Spanish movements of | bushwhacking or guerrilla character.
 From the events of the week 1t seems clear the Spanish generals do not intend to risk anything on battle in the open The resistance made to advance could hardly have been designed to stop it. The aim of the Spaniards to have been to take advantage of the ground to ambuscade our troops wherever pos sible, to kill many they could without great risk to themselves, and then fall back the moment their positions became subject to our attack This
 
 defense of Santiago and make their sole determined fight behind the entrenchments of that city.
 It is announced that General Shafter after driving the Spaniards into Santiago will not make deter mined effort to capture the place until the arrival of his artillery, which has been delayed. In the mean time there may be severe skirmishing almost every day with the Spanish forces in the suburbs It has ceased to be wholly a one-sided contest We no longer get reports of conflicts ending with the nouncement No loss our side" Mourning and grief to be heard in American homes as we'll as in those of Spain, and the war is in earnest
 Reports from Madrid are encouraging to the hopes of early return of peace. The Ministry is going to pieces The party said to have lost prestige and the prediction is made that even if Sagasa main tains his position Premier he will within a week make every effort possible to put end to conflict in which Spain has no hope of gaining anything Too much confidence, however should not be placed in these reports The Spaniards stubborn peo- pie. The war is not costing them very much. Their fleets resting quietly in port Their troops are already in Cuba. It entails great expenditure to maintain them there and the chances are they will not surrender to either Santiago or Havana until we have compelled them by force of arms.

NEWS OF FOREIGN NAMES.

Russia is now building six first-class battIeships, one second class battleship. one coast defense ship, one armored cruiser. three second-class protected cruisers, three gunboats, seventeen tor pedo boat destroyers, and ten torpedo boats.
 The Russian admiralty has offered a prize for the best composition for coat ing the bottom of ships-of-war to pro- tect the hull from fouling. Experiments are now in progress in tropical waters with upward of 100 different kinds sub- mitted for tests up to last February.
 The French battleship Charlemagne has passed through number of steam trials. which were apparently satisfactory. With IA, 300 horsepower she made 17.7 knots in a run of four hours, and with only one of her three screws in operation she de- veloped a speed of S.3 knots with only 1500 horsepower.
 Vickers, Sons and Maxim recently test ed a thirteen-pounder quick-firing gun. The shell weighed thirteen and quarter pounds, and twenty-seven rounds with charges of sixteen and half ounces 'ballistic'' gave a velocity of 1850 foot seconds. Fifteen rounds were fired in sfxty-seven seconds, or at the rate of thirteen and half rounds per minute. With careful sighting the rapidity of fire was ten rounds per minute.
 The Hfghf1yer, sheathed cruiser of $500 tons, was launched at the Fairfield yard, on the Clyde, June 4. She is one of twelve vessels built from the same de- sign, some of which are yet on the stocks. They are expected to make nineteen and half knots with 10000 horsepower. I'm proved Belleville boilers are being intro duced in most of these ships, and e4- periments at the Fairfield yard show an increase of evaporative efficiency of 31s per cent over the ordinary Belleville boiler.
 Rear Admiral Arthur Khyvet Wilson, controller in the British admiralty, won his Victoria Cross in the following man. ner: In 1884 he was in the Soudan cam paign, and was with the naval brigade at Fl Teb.

 The failure of the Terrible to steam rom Gibraltar to Portsmouth under 15, 900 horsepower was due to defective engines.

THE ELECTIONS IN EUROPE

Y E have been much engaged with war \AI matters of late that we have given but little
 attention to affairs in Europe outside of reports of possible European interference with control of Manila Much however, has been going there that is worthy of notice and even of study This is particularly of the elections in France and Germany where the results have been widely different from what might have been expected by persons who have thought only of wars and international compli- cations
 In both countries the elections have shown that the people thinking great deal more of home affairs than of any territorial military expansion. They show moreover that the drift of public sentiment in both countries is toward economic and social re- forms The Radicals virtually triumphed in France and the Socialists made larger gains than any other party in Germany There IS of course wide differ ence between French radicalism and German social ism so far as their political programmes go, but the spirit among the people which anin1ates the move ment in the two countries is essentially the same that of disconent with the existing order of things and revolt against its authority
 The election results in Germany have been, it is said, highly irritating to the Emperor His aggres- sive foreign policy carried out in China and his ap- peal the warlike spirit of his people through the of the navy has apparently not affected the popular mind in the least They voted on local issues without regard to imperial policies, and elected so many Socialists that the Emperor is quoted as hay ing said, '1t IS time to stop persuasion and try drastic measures or these fellows will destroy a"
 It is clear that both in France and in Germany the people at this time intent on providing a remedy for wrongs at home than upon acquiring glory abroad. In neither country are the majority of citizens devoted to the army as reports would sometimes incline to believe This attitude of the public mind in two such powerful nations may be an augury of long peace, but it may also be the oppo- site. Governments have been known in times past to go to simply to distract the attention of their people from local affairs. If the Germans persist in talking of socialism despite the Kaisers bluff at war in the Orient he may day be induced to try the effect of real war. That would probably seem to many of his counselors safer means of checking the home revolt than his suggested drastic measures of suppression
