All these men weigh in the neighborhood of POO pounds.

 The race between Boston and Baltimore certainly is interesting, and, with just a little luck, the latter team will come out with flying colors. They are better pro- vided with pitchers than their opponents having in Hughes, Maui and McJames three of, the best twirlers in the league Boston has but one pitcher their equal and it will be interesting to note that he is expected to win the pennant for Bos- ton. He may do it, as he has in seasons past, but if Baltimore ever catches them as they did last year 1t is $20 to q they win the flag. During the last series with stpn 5oston , m T, Baltimore ,e had hot pitcher three, one almost as good as the other. this year and should win easily if the fates are generous enough to allow them to catch up with the leaders
 To-day's game will be between the Gilt Edges and Sand Crabs. That 1t will he the greatest game of the season may be judged from the fact that the crack twirlers, Harney and Borohers, are pitted against each other. Come one and afl and root.

from tho United States gunboat An.
napolis at point near the entrance to
the upper bay. He had no rifle for he
was too weak to carry it. According
to his story there are many Spanish
soldiers in Guantanamo in the same
state of star ton. He says there is
absolutely nothing to eat there, but the
Spanish sol diers are daily told that if
they surrender to the enemy they will
be killed.
A corporal and eight privates from
Baracoa came into the bay in small

Marblehead. They were ostensibly
greatly surprised and claimed not to
have known the bay was in the pos

WASHINGTON, July 9.-The govern.

dispose Of Admiral Cervera. A feeling
of the highest admiration prevails hero
at the gallantry displayed by the old
warrior and the noble spirit exhibited
by him under misfortune. It has been
proposed that'he be released on parole
not to engage in hostilities against the
United States until the end Of the war,
but it has notyst been decided whether
to do this or to .confine tho admiral
technically within tho limits Of the
naval academy reservation at Annapo'
lis. All the other captured Spanish
naval officers will b confined there,
save the surg sons, who will be allowed
to remain with tho enlisted men at the
prison station Of Zevayas island,

impression Also Prevails That
Conditions Are Serious
at Santiago.

WASHINGTON, July 8. There was a
continuation Of peace talk during the
Jay and many evidences in this line
IRE coming to the surface. Such, for
instance, was the confirmation by the
state department Of the report that
the Cadiz feet was returning to Spain,
since it is scarcely conceivable that the
Spanish government would doom this
last remnant of their feet to destruc'
ton at the hands of Watson's squad
ron, which, in all probability, could
head it of before ; it reached Cadiz, its
home port. Therefore. the assumption
is that the Spanish government caicu'
lates that at least an armistice, prece'
dent to peace. will be obtained before
the ships reach Spain. An unusually
definite report was in circulation that
the United States had been
Sounded In the Interest Of Peach
by the British ambassador, but when
it was brought to Sir Julian Paunce'
totes attention he authorized All ex'
plicit denial and said he had not COM
municated with tho government in any
way regarding the termination Of the
war.
Conditions at Santiago also are re-
garded a. favorable just now, accord
ing to General Skaters dispatch re-
ceived during the forenoon. Nothing
more came from him during the day,
but the impression prevails that the
Spanish are in desperate plight
within the lines Of the city, and Cen
eral Skaters action in allowing Lin
ares to communicate freely with Mad.
rid is an implication that there is at
least reasonable hope that the Span
ish general contemplates surrender.

AUSTRALIAN SYMPATHY.
An American.AngIoA Alliance Is strongly
Favored.

Vancouver. b. c., May 20-The
steamer Aorang which arrived here
last evening from Australia. via Homo
lulu. brings the following mail advices:
In Australia the feeling is strongly in
favor of the United States in the pre-
vailing war with Spain. sydney papers
strongly favor an Anglo-American alli-
ance. The result of the battle at Manila
had not been learned. and there was
some fear among merchants that the
war would interfere with trade between
the colonies and the United States.
When the Aorangi left Honolulu, on
May IL, the Hawaiian government had
not received official notice of a declara-
ton of war. President Dole had con-
firmed a statement that he had brought
from Washington a bill drawn up there
placing the Hawaiian islands under the
sovereignty of the United States in the
event of war. President Dole refused TO
say whether the Hawaiian government
would take any action on the bill.
The United States warship Benning-
ton was preparing to leave Honolulu for
San Francisco as soon as British war;
ship arrived. in pursuance of an agree
ment between Great Britain. France and
the United States to maintain a naval
force at Honolulu. A British cruiser was
daily expected.
Commenting on the fact OF the Ben
nington Deing renewed by British snip.
the Honolulu Bulletin says:
Instead of the Hawaiian islands be-
ing annexed as a war measure the pros
pect is that they will virtually be aban-
doned by the United States until the war
is over"
The Hawaiian senate committee has
submitted a report on a bill authorizing
the Pacific Gable company TO provide
telegraphic communication between the
United States. Hawaii and Japan. The
company favors giving an exclusive
franchise to Japan only because of the
great cost Of laying the cable, which
