1t is also stated that the Spanish
ounboat at Caimanera has been loaded
with inflammables and will be burned
with the city, her commander declar-
ing that she will never become an
American prize.
The scouts also say that the Spanish
soldiers are in almost as complete a
state of panic as are the civilians, and
that they could easily be induced
to surrender Some of the prisoners
taken by the marines also say they be-
lieve the Spanish troops are on the
verge of surrender owing to the lack
of food. Captain McCalla of the cruis-
CT Marblehead, and Lieutenant Colonel
Huntington, in command of the ma

ceived information that a general at

is contemplated within night or two.

HONOLULU WELCOMED THEM.
The First Philippine Transports Reached
Hawaii.

VICTORIA, British Columbia, June 30
-Advices to-day per steamer Wowera
from Honolulu, June Q, say:
The United States transports City
of Picking, City of Sydney and Aus
tralia arrived here together on June
l. The voyage was pleasant and the
vessels travelled abreast most of the
way, although it was necessary for
the Picking and Australia 20 slow up
and wait for the City of Sydney. Eight
mild cases of measles broke out
upon the Australia. The sick men
were separated from the other pas
sengers on the ship, quartering them
on the hurricane deck, and the sur
geons had the cases we'll in hand when
the vessel arrived. AS soon as the
three vessels were sighted Honolulu
turned out to welcome the soldiers.
The docks were lined with people and
as the vessels entered the harbor the
spectators yelled themselves hoarse.
During Friday, June 3, the soldiers
were entertained on the grounds of
the executive building. President Dole
welcomed them. Visiting troops were
introduced to the president by mem
bers of the National guard and cit
liens generally. The utmost freedom
prevailed, the affair being very in
formal. To each the chief executive
gave a word of welcome to Honolulu.
An outdoor luncheon was given by the
ladies of this city.
The United States transports left
for Manila June L. The Charleston
began to draw anchor about :
o'clock. She steamed outside and
waited for the fleet, consisting
of the Pekin, Australia and City of
Sydney, which got away about 10
o'clock, with the vessel Charleston in
the rear. While the vessels were in
the port they took in the neighbor-
hood of 1, 600 tons of coal.

LATE WORD FROM DEWEY.
Insurgents Had Practically Surrounded
Manila June 12.


WASHINGTON, June 1S.-The navy
department has received the following
from Admiral Dewey, under date of
June 12:
"CAvITE, June II. via Hong Kong,
June 17.-There is little change in the
situation since my telegram of June 3.
Insurgents continue hostilities and
have practically surrounded Manila.
They have taken $500 Spanish
prisoners, whom they treat most
humanely. They do not intend to take
the city at the present time. Twelve
merchant vessels are anchored in the
bay with refugees on board, under
guard of neutral men OF war; this with
my permission.

Evidence of Fatality Among Spanish
soIdiers-Report That HObson and His
Companions Have Been Murdered.

KINGSTON, Jamaica, June 20.-A
careful inspection of the Notifications
along the crest of the hills defending
Santiago harbor since the lombard
ment Thursday morning shows the
American gunners spread wreck and
ruin everywhere. Some of the bat
teries were demolished beyond repair.
The vultures which circled over the
hills as thick as swallows around a
ceased furnished gruesome evidence of
the fatality among the Spanish sol
diers Hundreds of troops could
be seen from the ships digging
in mounds of earth piled up by the
explosions of the projectiles
from the heavy guns for bodies while
their heads were famed by the wings
of the black scavengers of the battle
field. There were two spots, one in
the east and the other in the west of
the harbor entrance, which were de-
nuded of the foliage. The hill tops
seem literally blown away. These
marked the places where the 2OO-pound
charges of guncotton thrown by the
Vesuvius landed. But the most omi-
nous token of death flew from Moro
castle. The saffron flag of Spain was
half-masted for several hours. The
significance of this is not known.
1t is customary to half-mast flags,
but possibly some Spanish leader was
killed by the heavy fire of our guns,
though some officers of the squadron
believe that the flag was half-masted
as notification to the Americans that
Lieutenant Hobson and his brave men
men were dead. If such is the case
they must have been wantonly MUIR

Said That a Proclamation Declaring 1t
Is About to BE Signed.
LONDON, June 2O.-The Hong Kong
correspondent of the Daily Mail, tele-
graphing Sunday, says: A conspicu-
Gus object in Manila bay is tie nucleus
of an insurgent fleet. 1t COZ sists of a
vessel of hundred tons burden, pre-
scented to General Aguinaldo by rich
native. The vessel flies the flag of the
Philippine republic-threc triangles of
red, white and blue, on white
ground, or ground formed of the old
rebel flag of the sun rising above the
hills.
The native proclamation of indie
pendence will be signed on Monday.
Manila is completely surrounded by
the insurgents, of whom there are
three forces deployed about the city,
one situated to the south between
Malete and the river Pasig; another
occupying position to the east and
cutting off communication with the
lake and the third operating on the
north side, stopping all railway COM
munication between Manila and the
rich supply towns to which the line
runs.
The success of the rebel forces is
wonderful. General Aguinaldo has
more than surpassed the expectations
of those who favored his return to the
Philippines, He has captured 1900
Spanish troops, including 900 regulars
Among the latter are eleven officers Of
and above the rank of lieutenant
colonel, including two brigadier gen.
erals, and he has taken seventy-nine
officers below the rank of lieutenant
colonel. In addition his forces have
captured five prominent priests, heads
of important parishes in provinces re-
Gently overrun by the insurgents.
These men the insurgents hate even
more than they hate the Spaniards,
and the rebels chuckle with joy when
they point them out in their prisons.
They have captured, too, old Cavite
church, taking 270 prisoners, and they
now hold the entire shore of the bay
right around to Malate A foreign
fire brigade, composed of British,
Swiss and Germans, intend to remain
ashore and quartered at the premises OF
Kerr & Co., to guard foreign property
against fire, applied to the Spaniards
to receive arms, but were refused.

Another Onense to Spain.

MADRID, June 2O.-The statement
that President Mckinley has sent to
Admiral Cervera and General Pando
messages saying that he would hold
them personally responsible for the
lives of Lieutenant Hobson and his
men has produced disagreeable i'm
preston here in military circles as
showing that President Mckinley dis
trusts the military honor of the Span :
iards, who, on their part, dispise
all threats. Such messages, it is de-
clared, render the future exchange of
the prisoners most unlikely.

system in the six first class cities of
the state. The nominations were all
punched and were sent through with a
whoop and rush.
The entire ticket of the Populists
has been specifically indorsed by the
Democratic state convention, and was
generally Endorsed in advance by the
free silver Republicans This makes
complete fusion supporting Governor
Leedy and the ticket
Some of the planl1s of the platform
as first adopted were not found to be
entirely satisfactory to the leaders of
the party, and they were reconsidered.
The hardest fight was on the plank
favoring the repeal of the Metropoli-
tan police law. After discussion
lasting two hours the convention, by a
vote of 3s1 for to 306 against, decided
to retain the plank and to demand that
the metropolitan law be Immediately
suspended by the governor and boards
of police commissioners abolished with
out waiting for action on the part of
the legislature.
The resolution providing for state
ownership of stock yards was also re-
considered and discussed at length, bnt
it was decided that the plank should
stand as adopted.
The resolution favoring a system of
state fire and life insurance provoked
serious opposition on account of its
antagonism of the fraternal orders. 1t
was finally amended by leaving out
the reference to life insurance and
providing for state protection against
fire, lightning and tornadoes.
1t is stated that Governor Leedy was
not in favor of the resolution passed
by the Populist convention for the i'm
mediate suspension of the metropolitan
police law, but wanted the law re-
ferred to the Legislature for repeal.
The order of suspension will go into
effect July /, and thereafter the police
administration of the cities of Kansas
CITY, Atchison, Leavenworth, Fort
Scott, Wichita and Topeka will rest
with the mayor and council.
Immediately after the nomination of
the state ticket, Charles Johnson of
Cowley county introduced resolution
prepared by Chief Justice Doster, and
introduced at his request, which was
unanimously adopted. 1t is as fol-
lows:
ave are opposed in the crisis of our
troubles with Spain to the talked of
alliance with Great Britain. 1t is I'M
necessary, unpatriotic and un-Ameri
can. 1t has for it's object the entangle-
ment of this country in the complica-
tions of international politics and the
imposition upon us of the British mon
etary and commercial systems. We de-
clare our ability to maintain our flag
on both land and sea against all pow
ers which dare cross us, without the
aid or cooperation of any other nation
on earth"
Short addresses were delivered by
the candidates, after which the con-
vention adjourned.
