SHALL WE VISIT SPAIN?
Unless Spain Knows When to Cry
 Enough, We May.

Washington, June 13.-In this city where war is the all absorbing topic, it is difficult to get expression of opin- ion from reliable sources. Yet from these sources even occasional leakage is bound to occur. On good authority today it is said that the plans of the administration with regard to Spain extend much further than now sup posed, even by those on the inside.
 The statement is made that if Spain does not surrender with the fall Of Porto Rico and Santiago she will be made to feel the sting of war at her own doors. The Spaniards at home will find out that all the stories told them about rotten American ships and Spanish victories are the merest fabri- cations.
 It is known that the belief of the president is that the fall of Porto Rico and Santiago will bring Spain to her knees, and this belief takes into ac-. count the stubborn Spanish nature and the fact that it is essential to the very existence of the Spanish government that the war be prolonged as long as possible, and the Spanish people fooled

CoLoMB ON THE NAVAL WAR.
English Admiral Is Surprised at Some
 of Its Phases,

London, June 1?-Admiral Sir John Colomb writes as follows to morn ing paper with reference to the situa- t1on at Santiago de Cuba:
 T am inclined to think that for the purpose of blocking the egress of a hostile war squadron this operation of sinking the Merrimac. is a unique idea though blocking up an enemy's har- bor by sinking ships at the entrance is not new. What may be noted, how ever, with advantage is that the pecu- liar policy of Admiral Sampson is the policy if greater admirals, especially of Lord Nelson, which was to tempt q blockaded fleet to put to sea in order that it might be fallen upon and de- stroyed, for when this has been done a blockading fleet is relieved to carry out other duties.
 Sampson wants every ship that can be spared, and if the Spanish ships are really blocked in, much of his block ading force may be detached. Still, our policy in a. like case would not block the channel and would only have left a squadron off Santiago large enough to make fair fight should Ger vera determine to try his fortunes

not likely that there is now any cable communication with Santiago, so the preliminaries must be arranged direct ly through Admiral Sampson, time- consuming operation, as he can be reached only through the agency of dispatch boats from Jamaica or Hayti
 The war department officials were surprised at the number of Spanish of- icers held captive at Fort McPherson. and it will be seen that there is no lack of material, as was at first feared. for equal exchange. Two officers have already been exchanged-namely, Col onel Vincente de Cortijo of the Third cavalry Principe and Surgeon Major lsidrO Garcia Julian, sanitary corps. The list remaining is as follows:

Nevertheless. Admiral SampsOn'S cau- ton confirms what naval men, who are also students of naval history, have always insisted upon-that the entry of warships into the ports of an en- emy was no more likely to be the prac tice of steamers than of sailing ships.
 "All through this war, however, what was expected by the advanced school of naval thinkers and thing upon which, indeed, much of our own policy has been founded, has been con- spicuous by absence Admiral Samp- son has never used his torpedo boats as it was expected they would be used. He has never sent one of them into a Cuban port by night to destroy ships, such as might be found at Santiago.
 .It is plain that if 3,000-ton ship could run into the narrowed part of a channel at night little torpedo boats might have swarmed right through and into the inner harbors. What has caused the expectation of the advanced naval thinkers to be disappointed can not yet be known, but unless things alter before the war is over we shall be found reconsidering our policy in this regard.
 "The officers and men of the Merri- mac have clearly acted with the great est gallantry, and. quite possibly, Ad- miral Cervera's recognition of it may be step toward peace. But I do not understand about Naval Constructor Hobson. Whoever commanded the ship must have great experience in pi- Iotage. A naval architect has none. All the work to be done was in spec ial sense that of naval officer pure and simple and I cannot understand any one else being chosen"

PLENTY OF PRISONERS.
Spaniards Who Can Be Exchanged for
 the Merrimac's Crew.

Washington, June lS-The con- manding officer at Fort McPherson, Georgia, has furnished the war depart ment full list of Spanish captives to facilitate the work of exchange for the crew of the Merrimac captured at San tiago, Cuba. Tlfis is likely to occupy more time than was originally expect ed, because of the difficulty of com municating with the Spanish admiral at Santiago. The exchange effected at Havana was conducted through the British ambassador here, Sir Julian Fauncefote, and the British consul general at Havana, MT. Gollan, with the aid of the existing cable, but it is

A POLISHING OF. SILVER.
Col. Wilson vainly Tries to Remove
 the Corrosion of Two Seasons.

Col. J. F. Wilson came down from Prescott on Sunday night again to pol ish the silver question upon which a great deal of rust has been allowed to accumulate within the last two years. IT. some localities the corrosion has been so energeuc that they were un- able to get down to the pure white metal at all, up in Oregon, for instance.
 This polishing process was set for last week and the colonel came down armed with rasping eloquence and the finer emery of wit, with the aid of which he was going to remove the cor roded surface and show the boys of the Juvenile Democratic club that sil- yer is still king and that there is still God in Israel, though the minds of the people had for the moment been turned by the war with Spain, strange high prices for produce, general pros perity and other strange gods.
 There were not enough boys gathered together to make the polishing experi- ment necessary and the colonel prom ised to come back.
 Yesterday morning bright and early SOm0 UeIuOCTdJlC dQt0TIlSluS genius caused the streets, public buildings and corridors of Phoenix to be filtered with handbills upon which there was printed in prominent type, "A Grear Naval Battle" That caught the Phoe- nix eye, which had been steadily trained on the bulletins for weeks un- til it had looked the bulletins out of countenance and they ceased to ap- pear.
 The handbill stated below ill less ostentatious type that Col. Wilson would be present and something would be said regarding silver. It was popu larly expected that Col. Wilson had provided himself with stereopticon with naval views, with which he would relieve a political address. Some were even sanguine enough to imagine tia. there would be representation of 1he Gazette conveying the troopship of cd :tors putting to sea.
 But whatever was expected there was a very good attendance when Col. Wilson was presented. There was no stereopticon in sight, not even a pie ture of a battleship, though as the talk proceeded there was a good imi- tation of a storm at sea. The wind blew in, extinguished a gas jet here and there and the resultant odor en- abled the audience to believe that it

to the fullest extent Knowing the possibility that the officials of Spain may still cling to faint hope of vic tories, the president has already de- cided, it is said, to order Admiral Sampson against Spain herself so soon as certain operations in the West In- dies are concluded. Of course, this projected movement of Sampson is based upon the final disposition of Cervera, which everybody believes will be accomplished. That over, 8 goodly portion of the fleet will no longer be needed iu West Indian waters and will be sent to Spain to teach the people how badly they are being fooled by their officials.

THE TELLTALE CARDS.
A Phoenix Husbands Curious Com
 plaint Against His Wife.

| There is a man in Phoenix who is,
 almost constantly in hot water. He is well known citizen, but as his name would not lend additional interest to this narrative it is omitted. His wife is fortune teller, hence his woe She spends most of her time telling his for tune in which occupation she employs a pack of cards. Her husband is des- ignated as the Jack of Clubs. She
 runs the cards through in his absence
 and if the Jack of Clubs happens to
 oe brought in conjunction with the
 Queen of Diamonds or the Queen of
 Hearts, the husband when he comes
 home is confronted by an accusation of unfaithfulness and the heco-respondent is blonde. If, however, the Jack of Clubs becomes mixed up with either of the black queens, then the husband. partners in sin are brunettes. If the system of fortune telling ended here it would not be so bad, for there would be only one chance in thirteen of suspicious association of the cards, but as it is the husband has no chance at all of making a favorable showing. If the Jack of Clubs is run out next to sociating with men who are no better sociatinf with men who are no better than himself. If his partner is a low card he is accused of being rank failure and a man of low tastes, but if he finds himself in the. company of kings he is charged with trying to rise above his station and with blow ing in wealth which ought to be em- ployed in the edification of his own family.
 The woman believes the cards are infallible and is constantly threatening the unfortunate husband with legal proceedings on account of his short eomings, of which she is fully aware. In consequence of these tell-tale cards the husbands home life has become unbearable He says he goes home orly when it is necessary and that If lis wife's faith in the cards is not shaken soon he will cease going there altogether. He. believes now, as he was taught at Sunday school in his youth, that the devils in the cards.

Hawaiian annexation. A lively fight over making it strictly party ques- tion will occur, many of the old dem- ocrats who favor annexation being opposed to taking party action.
 Those who occupy this position say that in part they can secure whatever benefit is possible in opposing annexa- tion without taking caucus action and emphasizing differences~that exist within the organization. A large ma jority of democrats Oppose annexation, but an appreciable numDer advocate it
