AN excursion from Fayetteville ar
rived here today. The people came to

1t will be remembered that the day
before the First regiment left here for
Jacksonville Mrs. King attempted by
means of habeas corpus proceedings
before Judge Purnel to secure the dis
charge of her son, who she claimed
was only II years Old. The judge de-
cideJ he had no jurisdiction. Mrs.
King then got to work on Senator
Pritchard and the latter secured the
discharge.

The matter of procuring clothing and

1t is said that the Third regiment

You correspondent learns that n
reason for the governments slowness
in equipping the First and Second reg

would all be guard organizations and
were fully equipped. The govern

Key West, Fla, May 2S.-1O:05 p. m.
Despite reports to the contrary, it
can be stated positively that no ar
rests have yet been made in connection
with the attempt of three supposed
Spanish spies to blow up the fortif-
cations here Thursday night, when
Sergeant Charles H. Richards was
shot and slightly wounded. Several
persons have been and still are under
surveillance on suspicion of being re-
motley connected with the case, n
there is no possibility of their escape.
The three men actually wanted have
been located by the military authori-
ties and will almost beyond doubt be
under arrest within a few hours. 1t is
deemed inadvisable now to make pub
lie the details Of their apprehension.

BALLOONS FOR USE IN WAR.
Two VIII He Pat to Practical Test i'm
the Cuban CanIpaign-General Greedy
Certain that Ccvera Could Have BE en-
Located by Aerial observations.
(Washington Post, 29th.)

= washington Post, 29th.)
General A. W.. Greedy, chief signal
officer, has been informed officially of
the arrival at New York of the two
war balloons which are to be used
in the Cuban campaign. They have
been transferred to Governors Island,
where certain finishing touches are to
be put to them, after which they will
be shipped to Tampa. In addition to
these two balloons General Greedy has
another Of American manufacture
ready for use, and has given orders
for a fourth. Probably a weei. or
more will elapse before the two from
Europe and the American balloon will
reach Tampa, and during the interval
work will progress on other features
OF the equipment, which are necessary
Tor the successful working Of the air
ships.
The arrangements for making ready
the War-balloon train or section, as
1T is called, are in the hands Of Major
Joseph e. Maxfield, Of the signal corps,
stationed at Tampa. The train will
be made up of two parts, which will
include one balloon for active service,
while another will be held in reserve.
The expectation is that those brought
1IOII dDTOdu Viii IISL pt put " pTdCll-
cal use. Accompanying the train will
be complete apparatus and material
for making gas and also for COM
pressing it to 100 a~tmospheres, which
will permit the transportation Of large
quantities in steel tubes ready for in
fating the balloons in emergencies.
Each balloon will float a cable through
which Geographic communications
may be a with those below.
Numerous inquiries, both verbally
and by telegraph, have been made of
General Greedy, asking whether by the
use of balloons it could not be definite
~ ascertained if Admiral Cervera's
fleet is actually in Santiago harbor.
The general feels certain that the true
state of the case could readily nave
been determined by their use. He has
long been an advocate of balloons in
warfare, and has repeatedly urged
upon congress the need of an appro-
priation for experimental purposes in
DallOoning. An allotment was given
the signal office out Of the emergency
appropriation Of $50, 900, 900 for this
purpose, but General Greedy has not
yet had sufficient time to arrange for
sending a balloon to the front in time
to get it aboard ship.
