perhaps $4,000. Gen. Arthur f. Marsh,
chairman of the republican state COM

Complaint Against the United States ON
GERS at Key West


GERS at Key West.
Washington. June S.-The complaints
made against the United States officers
at Key West Of improper treatment Of
the captives on prizes brought in by
American vessels are being daily rein
forced and are creating so much dis
satisfaction here that it would not be
surprising if the prizes hereafter taken
by naval vessels were ordered further
north, to Charleston, for instance, thus
depriving the Key West officials OF the
fat fees which they have been making
from this source First came the re-
port through Admiral Sampson of Cadet
Jones charge against the officials,
which are now to be formally fnvesti-
gated by a naval court-martial. The
latest case is in connection with the
British ship Restormel which was
captured off Santiago with a load of
coal, apparently destined for the Span
ish fleet inside. This vessel was brought
into Key West with a prize crew. AL
though her British nationality was per-
fectly evident, the officials at that port
for some unexplained reason positively
refused to permit the captain to COM
municate with the British vice consul.
The British embassy here, being ad-
vised of the fact, made prompt repre-
sentations to the state department with
the result that orders were forwarded
without delay to the district attorneys
office Of Key West to at once put the
captain of the Restorrnel in commune
cation with the vice consul.

TROOPS ON THE WAY.
Belief That the First Expedition Is En-
Route tn Cuba.

Washington, June 9.-Troops are be-
lieved to be on the way to Cuba and
Porto Rico. Neither the navy nor the
war department will officially admit
this, but there is much cumulative evil
dence to prove that the first expedition,
under Generals Shafter and Brooke, is
we'll out to sea on the way to the Wind
ward passage. When it arrives at that
point the situation at Santiago Will de-
termine whether it will there divide, one
wing standing on the course to San
Juan and the other to Santiago, or
whether the combined army will go to
the Cuban coast temporarily.

Arms for spaniards on Board.

Key West, Fla, June S.-Commodore
Remey has seized the cargo of the Eng
lish steamer Restormel. caught by the
st. Paul off Santiago de Cuba. This
action is taken to save the government
from being fleeced by spectators. The
Restormel carries 1900 tons of coal, but
suspicious acts make the naval officials
believe that guns and ammunition for
the Spanish are buried underneath. The
captain OF the Restormel made a big
fuss and some of the crew broke the
hosting cranes so that the cargo could
not be taken out.

Off Santiago, via Kingston, Jamaica,
June "a great naval battle is eN-
pected at once at Santiago de Cuba.
Nearly every warship in the fleets of
Sampson and Schley is in front of the
harbor, and preparations are being
made to force an entrance into the bay
in front Of the city and then land
troops. The big battleship Oregon is
with the squadron. General Shafter,
with an army of 5000 is expected to be
landed in Santiago province. TIE Unit
ed States soldiers are said to be on the
warshirs with Sampson. Part of the
force will make an attack on the out
skirts of the city. Three thousand Gu
bans, well armed, are in camp behind
Santiago, and arrangements have been
made to have the patriots act with the
Americans under General Skaters
command 1t is the intention to bonn
bard the city of Santiago again and at
the same time invade the city by land.

Within twenty-four hours the stars

over Santiago, and If Cervera's fleet is
there IL will either be sunk or capt
ured The Christobal Colon. at any
rate is doomed to destruction or capt
ure. It is reported here that the Cadiz
fleet is on its way to reinforce Cervera.
and it is the intention to force the
Spaniards TO surrender before it is pos
sible for the Spanish feet to receive
assistance. Fifteen warships are at
Admiral Simpsons disposal to pit
against the six men-of-war flying the
Spanish flag. They include the Massa-
chusetts, New York, Brooklyn, New Or
leans. Marblehead, Minneapolis, Nash
VILE. Scorpion. Vesuvius, Porter Har'
ward. Yale and Eagle. With such a
|force attacking Santiago de Cuba naval
experts, who have heretofore contend
ed that Admiral Cervera had fight

his position is absolutely hopeless.
