DISPOSITION OF TROOPS.
Kansas VIII Furnish some for the Philip
pines-A Portion Of Miss0uri's Quota
May see Service In Cuba.

WASHINGTON. May lathe Missouri
troops have not yet been ordered to
the Philippines. The report that they
had has been persistently circulated,
but Adjt Gen. Corbin said yesterday
that no such order has been made. The
troops for the first expedition to the
Philippines are to be drawn from the
regular forces now on the Pacific coast
and the volunteers of the states Of Wy.
ominp. Montana, Washington, Califor-
MIA, Idaho. Colorado, Kansas, Mime
sofa and perhaps Nebraska. 1t is the
belief Of the adjutant general that
these states will be able to furnish all
the volunteers which can be trans
ported on the first expedition. The
number fixed to 90 was $4,000. The
first two regiments ready in Missouri
will in all probability be ordered to
proceed direct to Tampa for embarka-
ton to Cuba. 1t is possible that some
of the other regiments which Missouri
has been called upon to furnish, but
which cannot be ready for some time,
may be ordered to join q second ex-
petition to the Philippines, in the
event that a second expedition should
be decided upon.

TEE BUSINESS SITUATION.
The Outlook for Trade y Fixtsering One
Rapid Advance In Wheat Prices
business Failures.
w YoRK, NAV lA-Isradstreet's

New YORK, May lA-l'radstreet's
commercial report to-day says:
The business situation gains rather than
loses In attractiveness as the spring season ad-
vances While Of course, the very favorable
situation ia cereals Is still the handspring Of
the improvement man.fest.ng itself In many
sections OF the country. there are other causes
combining Herewith 70 make the outlook for
business for the current year fattering one.
Following the rapid advances 10 prices

one single exception, and that only for very
short period o: time, for rs years past, there
has come o lull md Faction from the ao-
normally high prices caused W the squeeze IN
May delivery, which. however has left prices
far above quotations for at least ten years
back Telegraphic and cab.e advices 10
Bradstreets only accentuate the ALREADY
well-kn0wn bulish nature OF the immediate
wheat situation, while on the other hand.
owing TO the g.nerally admitted good crop
situation, p .rticularly In this ani other coun-
tries the outlook appears 10 f,vor somewhat
lower prices than those now ruling for next
seasons YIELD although above the average OF
those ruling for the past xix years With the
Quieting down Of interes, In wheat there has
come partial shifting Of speculative interest
10 other grains, particularly corn and oats, and
many classes Of provisions, with advances In
nearly oil those lines
A rather more confident feeling Seems TO per-
wade the iron traie, which Is reflected 10 frac-
tional advances for leading makes OF iron and

features OF the wees and one especially accept

conditions prevailing, is the rep )rted slight I'm

QUEEN vICTORIA'S ADVICE.
Personally Appeals to the Queen Regent to
Stop the War and Protect Young
AlfOnsO's InterestA

New YORK, May 13.-A dispatch to
the World from London says: Some
doubt is expressed here whether the
Cape Verde squadron has returned to
Cadiz, especially in view Of the fact
that the report was issued just about
the time when the squadron was due
at the West Indies, If steaming slowly
to economic coal. 1t is rumored in
well-informcd circles here that Queen
Victoria has personally appealed to
the queen regent to sue for peace on
the ground that the longer war con-
tinues the more her sons prospects
will be jeopardized. There is q gem
eral feeling here now and on the con-
tinent also that a continuance OF war
by Spain would be nothing short OF
criminal lunacy, but 1t is clearly un-
derstood that the European powers
will not intervene unless they are In
vited by Spain and on conditions &C
ceptable TO the United States.

TO DESTROY ALL VESSELS.
Adm. Dewey VIII Not Leave Any Spanish
Gunboats In Asiatic Waters II He
Can Get at Them.

New YORK, May IA dispatch to
the New York Herald from Washing
ton says: There is reason to believe
that the further instructions sent to
Rear Admiral Dewey via the dispatch
boat McCulloch, which returned to
Manila from Hong Kong, required
him immediately to destroy any other
vessels or Notifications which Spain
has in the Philippines. "You must
capture vessels or destroy Them was
the directions given to Rear Admiral
Dewey before the battle OF Manila
bay. These instructions were due to
the desire Of the authorities TO remove
from the Pacific the Spanish feet and
thus prevent the enemy from hsrass-
ing American commerce in these wa
tera 1t Is doubly necessary that 1t
should be carried out TO the letter, In
view Of the fact that troops will be
sent TO the Philippines, with perhaps
the Bennington as their only convoy.

GUSSIE DID NOT LAND.
The steamer with Cargo OF Rifles and
Ammunition for Insurgents Forced
TO Put to Sea.

KEY WEST, Fla, May l4.-1nforma-
ton OF a vague character reached here
OF the attempt to land on Cuban soil Of
q cargo Of arms and ammunition taken
over by the steamer Gussie on Wednes.
day. The Gussie came from Tampa
with 1000 rifles and large quantity
OF ammunition, clothing and provi.
sions for the Cuban insurgents. The
expedition was in charge Of Capt. ]. H.
Dorst, Of the United States cavalry.
With him were about 100 members Of
the First artillery Of the regular army
and ten Cuban scouts Arrangements
had been made to have body of in.
surgents meet the Gussie at Cabanas to
receive the expedition and carry 1t to
the insurgent troops. When the Gussie
reached Cabanas, however, there was
no one there to meet her but a
body Of Spanish soldiers, who opened
fire from the shore. The auxiliary
gunboats Wasp and Manning had met
the Gussie on the way over and acted
as escort They returned the fire Of
the Spanish troops, ana are said to
have killed many, though this, OF
course, is largely conjecture. Under
the protection Of the gunboats the
scouts and detail Of soldiers made a
landing, but they were driven back by
the Spanish troops who maintained
vigorous attack. One Of the American
party WAS shot in the arm, but none
Of the others were injured. The
Gussie eventually abandoned the at
tempt to land her cargo, and at last
accounts was still cruising along the
coast awaiting favorable chance to
do so.
