TROOPS HAVE LANDED.

Direct Gable Dispatches from Command
ers so Announce.
Washington, June 22.-Ohicial des-
patches received tonight by both Secre-
tary Alger and Secretary Long indicated
that the landing of troops near Santiago
was progressing most favorably. The
first landing was affected at Daiquiri this
morning and met with comparatively
slight resistance. This was stated in a
despatch received this afternoon by Sec
retary Alger, which though brief was full
of news and meaning. 1t follows:
PLAYA DEL ESTE, June %.
Secretary of War, Washington, d. c.:
"On Daiquiri, Cuba, June 22.-Landing
at Daiquiri this morning successful.
Very little if any resistance.
(Signed) SHAFTER.
Secretary Alger expressed himself as
delighted at the expedition with which
the landing of the troops was being
effected and with the fact that no serious
obstacle was being offered by the enemy.
He construed the text of Gen. Shafter' 5
message to mean that the enemy had
made merely a nominal and Ineffective
resistance by firing from the hills at long
range.
Shortly after Secretary Alger received
his despatch, Secretary Long received a
more extended cablegram from Admiral
Sampson. 1t, too, was dated at Playa
Del Este at 80 this evening. The text
of the despatch, translated from the
navy department cipher, is as follows:
Landing of the army is progressing
favorably at Daiquiri. There is very
little if any resistance. The New Or
leans, Detroit, Castine, Wasp and Su
vance shelled the vicinity before land
ing. We made demonstration at Ca
banas to engage the attention of the EN-
emy. The Texas engaged the west bat
terry for some hours. She had one mar
killed. Ten submarine mines have beer
recovered from the channel of Guanta
namo. (Slgned) SAMPSON
In both army and navy circles the in
formation contained in the dispatches O.
Gen. Shafter and Admiral Sampson wa
received with intense satisfaction. |
was evident from the text of Admira
SIMPSONS despatch that a considerable
landing had already been effected nea
Guantanamo, as he noted that communi
cation by telegraph had been re-estab
lished at that point and that the channe
had been cleared of submarine mines.

Eniscoralians in Convention.

The Protestant Episcopal convention
of the diocese of Vermont was held in
St. Paul's church, Vergennes, last week
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.
Among the important business trans
acted was the amendment of the consti-
tuition and canons of the diocese to allow
of fuller representation of the laity of
the permanently organized missions of
the diocese in the convention upon the
same general conditions as those which
govern the representation of parishes,
involving also the assessment of these
missions for diocesan expenses; the elec-
ton of delegates from the diocese to
attend the general convention at Wash
ington, d. c., in October; the appoint
ment of committee to inquire into the
titles of church property and secure the
better preservation of titles and deeds {;
provision for increased efficiency in the
conduct of the missionary work of the
diocese.
The standing committee of the diocese
elected for the ensuing year was Rev.
j. Isham Bliss, d. D., Rev. w. f. Weeks,
Rev. II. r. Foster, Messrs. Arthur of
Burlington, Briggs of Brandon and W.
Seward Webb of Shelburne.
Delegates to general convention Rev.
j. |. Bliss, ID. D., r. b. Foster, ID. l..

Missionary committe Rev.'s d. L. San
ford, b. w. Atwell, George Y. Bliss
Messrs. c. E. Parker, John Locke and

The report of the missionary com
mittee showed that the deficit of the
previous year had been extinguished
DR.. Seward Webb and LeGrand B. Can
non having contributed 81 600 each
The office of general missionary was
discontinued, as there is now greater
need of establishing missions in places
already covered by this work, ant
because Bishop Hall can attend to mucf
of that work himself.
The convention of 1899 is to be held il
