SPANISH WARSHIPS
OFF ATLANTIC COAST,
Battleship, Two Cruisers and Torpedo
boat Reported to Have Been
Sighted or Fort Monroe.

NEWPORT News, Va, June IA
dispatch received from Fort Monroe
says:
Intense excitement was caused at
Fort Monroe last night shortly after 0
o'clock by a dispatch received from the
signal station at Cape Henry, stating
that Spanish warships were lurking in
that vicinity.
"a short while later message was
received from Washington instructing
the commandment of the fort to be on the
alert.
Reports as to the number of ships
seen conflict. A lieutenant, who was
seen after midnight, said he had been
informed that a Spanish battleship, two
cruisers and torpedeboat had been
caught under the searchlight of Cape
Henry steaming from a northerly diree-
ton.
GAS soon as it was reported that the
enemy's warships had been sighted
there was great activity at the fort. The
big searchlight began to sweep the bay
and signals were flashed to the cruiser
Minneapolis. auxiliary cruiser Dixie
and dynamite cruiser Buffalo, which
are anchored off Old Point. Quarters
were sounded and the crews hastily
prepared the ships for action.
1.-The gunners took positions at their
posts, where they were ordered to re-
main during the night The ships
searchlights were kept playing on the
waters.
In the fort ammunition was hurried
to the big guns and the troops ordered
to their posts. Some of the officers
were with their families at the hotels
and buglers We're dispatched for them
THE men scurried out Of the hotels
half dressed and FASTENED to the fort
In the camp ofthe Maryland troops or.
ders were given for the men to sleep in
their clothes with their guns close by.
A dispatch that came from Washing
ton stating that one of the vessels seen
was probably German freighter, had
a tendency to allay the excitement
among the guests at the hotels, but the
officers did not relax their vigilance

Lee and the HammOcks.

The volunteers who go to Cuba with
Fitz-Hugh Lee will not sleep on the
ground if the general can prevent it.
One precaution ranks above all others,
in the opinion Of General Lee. 1t is
that the Americaa soldiers should not
rest at night on the earth. A ham
mock with a strip of canvas stretched
over it to keep off the dew and the
rain is what he is asking for each
member of his command. This will
beat tents all to pieces, he says. He
has planned that the whole outfit
hammock, strip of canvas and two
poles sharpened at one end-will
make compact, easily transported
package, that can be carried by the
soldiers if transportation is lacking.
Campaigning in Cuba, General Lee
says, calls for light clothing and little
covering and some provision against
contact with the moist, malaria, ex-
haling soil after dark. Louis

They had been living on lines, cocoa
nIts and sweet potatoes. Ensign Gil
pin OF the 5uwanee went ashore and
accompanied the CubaAs to their tenn
porary camp inland. where he found
ten or a dozen wounded men badly in
need of surgical Attendance. Bandages
for them We're sent from the Suwanee.
Ensign Gilpn said ii part:
II found the insurgen5s a rough look
ing and lulxed lot of boys and ole men,

all sorts, and all anxious to borrow

the camp while was there, and said
they wanted TO join the insurgents.
Conservative authorities believe the
United States troopt will have TO carry
out their plan OF campaign without
placing much reliance upon the insur-
gents Several plucky young officers.
like Ensign Gilpin, have made trips
ashore and taken observations of the
interior harbor and the Notifications,
seeing Admiral Ceryera's four ships.

MISS LONG TO NURSE.
The Secretary's Daughter and Several
Friends to Attend Wounded
and Sick Sailors.

WASHINGTON, June IA very SUBJ
stantial evidence of self sacrifice for the
sake OF their country is afforded by the
taking up of military nurses duties
by the daughter of Secretary Long,
Miss Margaret Long, with some of her
chums at the Johns Hopkins Medical
school of Baltimore. The young ladies
who go with Miss Long are Dorothy
Reid, Mabel Austin, daughter of ex-
Governor Austin of Minnesota, and
Mabel Simis. They have already re-
ported to the naval hospital at Brook
lyn to nurse the wounded and sick sail
ors who were sent up from Sampson s
fleet on the Solace.

HAWAIIAN ANNEXATION.
Senator Frye Hopes to Secure Action In
the Senate.


WASHINGTON, June 11.-Senator Frye,
who in the absence of Senator Davis, is
acting as chairman OF the senate COM
mittee on foreign relations, said yester-
day that he would ask the senate to
take up the Hawaiian annexation reso-
luton as soon as it should pass the
house. He thinks it will be possible to
get the resolution up next Thursday
and expresses the opinion that the SEN
ate can be held in session long enough
to secure action.
The advocates of annexation appreci-
ate that the contest they will have to
make will be against the general desire
to adjourn, which is great because of
the weather and the fact that the ses-
sion has already been somewhat pro-
longed. They have, however, looked
the situation over carefully and express
the opinion that a majority of the sena-
tors will agree to remain.
In this struggle they are counting adj
visedly upon the active cooperation of
the president. 1t is possible that q
message may be sent to congress urging
action before adjournment, but this
point has not yet been decided.

THE sPANlARDs MAY STAY.
1t Would Require Special Act to Ex-
pei Du Bose and Carranza.


OTTAWA, Ont, June 11.-Statements
sent out from Ottawa that the govern
ment had decided to deport Senior Du
Bose and Lieutenant Carranza, the al
legged Spanish spies, lack foundation.
1t is conceded now in official circles
after careful examination of the law
that the crown has not the power to ex-
pei them from the country
The power is reserved to parliament,
which brings it into play by special
act. If the two Spaniards have en-
ployed persons in Canada to act as spies
in the United States they have violated
the foreign enlistment act and are
liable to prosecution under it. The
government may intimate to them that
if they remain they will be prosecuted.
But the accused may elect if they so
choose to remain and answer any
charge brought against them in the
courts.

Free Press.
The matter of building street
railway for FairmOnt is not meeting
with that hearty response that was
anticipated for it in the start. The
war times, the dizziness Of trade every
where and in all lines has had its eff
fects Another item was the lack OF
assurance that the road would be
built, even after the survey had been
made as indicated. However, the
projectors tell US that the matter is
not at its final rest, and as soon as
the war is over and money loosens up
another attempt will be made to get
it under way. This enterprise would
be the biggest thing that Fairmont
has ever had, and a source of business
patronage that would be a great thing
for our merchants.
The Fairmont Athletic club is
making arrangements for big time
here on the fourth of July. A para
chute, game of base ball, some good
horse racing and bicycle races will be
among the chief features of the days
amusement. A bicycle road race is
slated for the morning, the distance
to be about three miles or around the
'1oop,n starting from the Watson
hotel. Prizes valued at $40, So, SO,

ners. A bicycle parade is to take
place before noon, in which all bicy-
Gle riders in this and adjoining coun-
ties are invited TO join. All riders
are requested to send their names to

WANTS TO TAKE CHARGE HIMSELF,
Lieut.. H0bsOn Talks About RaIsin.r
the Colon and Vizcaya

Naval Constructor Hobson was before
lhe naval construction board again today
IN advocacy of his plans for raising the
Spanish warships Colon and Vizcaya. In
his opinion the Colon can be raised and
taken to New York or Norfolk for S5o0upo
and ttat the same can be done with the
Nizcaya for 100000. The huh of the Viz
caya Is intact and can be raised by the
use of a cofferdam. There was no doubt
in his mind as to his ability to raise the
Spanish ship Reina Mercedes and ths.
American collier Mcrrimac
The latter is now partial obstruction to
navigation and should be removed regard
less of her future usefulness. Constructor
Hobson recommended the abrogation of th,.
contract with the wrecking company for
the raising of the Colon and the Vizcava
and asked that he be authorized to make
his own arrangements for that work at an
expense not to exceed $500. .s9
The matter will be reported by the con-
struction board to the Secretary of the
Navy, and it will be for that official to
determine whether the present wrecking
operations shall be continued.
