Washington Aug. 2O.-The state depart
ment received cablegram to-day from
Consul Thompson at Progresso, Mexico,
stating that Gen. Pando the Spanish gen
eral, second In command TO Gen. Blanco,
had arrived incOgnito at Progresso yes
terday on the Mexican steamer Campeche
The consul says Gen. Pando seeks to en-
ter Havana or Batabano, Cuba, on the
British steamer Gulllermo Lopez.
When last heard of Gen. Pando was al
legged to have command OF the Spanish
forces at Manzanillo, near Santiago, al
though at that time 1t was asserted at
Havana no was stan there.
With the cessation Of hostllities there
appears to be no reason why he should
not go to Havana or Batabano.
