completion of the Nicaraguan canal is
now necessary, and that the war and
its results make the canal indispensa-

dent, his callers say, intends to make
strong recommendations to congress
for legislation making 1t the direct

ference said:
Congress at it's next session will
be asked for appropriations for COM
pleting the canal and its acquisition
as the property of the United States.
It's completion Is now essential. and
there is no doubt of favorable action
being taken by congress. The war has

ton than any Of the old world powers
would display under similar ciTcurn-
stances. Europe has no right what
ever to NEEDLE in the negotiations. My
government at least will not attempt
to dictate what the United States shall
do. Other powers may try to make
SPANS loss as light as possible, but
all such representations will be guard

No need to advise him to be good solder;
he has done done all he could for his country, Civ

had been. When we left the steamer together

The hospital people did all they could. It

To Enter the Campaign Against
BIancO on His Own Account,

blahcO OH his OWN Account.
NEW YORK, Aug lit is reported
that the boats of the mosquito fleet
here will be ordered to Cuban waters
to make tighter the blockade around
Havana. 1t is stated today by an Of
ticer of the navy, who has recently
come from Washington, that the pres
ident has decided to carry on a little
campaign against Havana on his own
hook. Whenever he can find an armed
vessel, big or little, with nothing par
ticular to do, he will just send it to
Cuba to fill up a gap in the Gordon
of ships around Havana. His idea is
to extend the blockade as far east and
west of the city as possible. In this
way and with the eastern end of Cuba
in our possession, the president has
notion that he may be able to starve
out Gen. Blanco and his army without
interfering with anybody's plans except
Blanco's, and thinks that, if Gen. Miles
and Gen. Merritt and Gen. Shafter and
all his other lieutenants don't look
sharply to their laurels, he will have
concluded the campaign, secured the
surrender of Havana, and gone on his
vacation before the others have fin
tshed their undertakings
