EAGLES THIRD GREAT SCOOP
1t Published Exclusively the Wars
First Bombardment.

1t PuDi1SneO E1etuSAFely THO " M .
First BOmbardment.
Again were the Kansas City haf-baked
newspapers taken out of the oven too
| soon.
Again the world failed to time its events
to accommodate the afternoon papers pub
lshed in Kansas City at midnight and
| called morning newspapers"
Again the Eagle Is the hrst TO the peo-
pie with an epochaI event. Il first ana
exclusively gave the blowing UP OF the
Maine. II first and exclusively gave the
passage by congress of armed lnteryen-
ton. 1t first and exclusively gave the
first bombardment Of the war, the Smelling
Of Matanzas.
That great luminary. which ceases 20
shine after midnight. the Kansas City
star. mad lot Of dull, slumber-heavy
news. but not word of the shellingi
the Kansas City Journal, the Santa Fe's
pet, talked on its first page about a
battle soon" but did not have a line
about the rain of iron upon Matanzas;
the Kansas City Times published a lot
of dry rot about what may happen next
week, but not breath about the news
of the day preceding.
It is demonstrated now beyond doubt
that the Eagle has the news first When
a thing happens before 10 o'clock IN the
evening there is likelihood that the
Kansas City half-bakeds may have It. 1t
is always expected that they will have ii,
leaving the Eagle the rest of the night
for its exclusive field.
But here. Matanzas was shelled at l
o'clock in the afternoon. Not az midnight
Not at o'clock in the morning. Not
after the Kansas City blotches had gone
to press. 1t was sheHed IN the middle of
the day and the batteries at Matanzas
answered twelve long hours before the
Kansas City papers went to press. But
the twelve hours passed away and the
Kansas City papers went to press without
line OF tbs so far big event Of the war.
The few deluded people IN southern
Kansas and Oklahoma who persist in
paying out their money for Kansas City
papers when a good weekly would an
swer just as well, borrowed and bought
the Eagle to get the news. just as they did
the morning after the Maine explosion
and Che day congress directed war.
Battles are not fought at day-break.
They are fought mostly in the day time.
Nightfall sees a cessation and. usually,
victory and defeat. And in the future,
as so notably in the past, the Eagle will
tell about it first, exclusively, and accu-
rately.

Havana, Nov. 26.-The last few days
have seen revival of activity in every
quarter. Things appear to take on
more definite forms in every branch of
military occupation. Here at Havana
wharves are being built and railway
connections made. The camps chosen
have actually begun to be constructed.
Government boats and supplies are ar
irving and the first installment of Unit
ed States troops is daily expected. At
the custom house the archives are be-
ing packed hurriedly, preparatory to
turning over the building to the Ameri-
can authorities. The best energies Of
the Spanish now seem bent upon an
immediate evacuation of the island.
All this has had salutary effect upon
the general tone of commercial and
social life in the city, which looks to
the immediate future for relief from q
long season Of doubt and stagnation.
Outside OF the principal business
streets in Havana a veritable reign OF
terror has set in with the return of 400
desperadoes, members of the infamous
band Of Nanogoes, sent to Ceuta three.
years ago. The robbers do not await
darkness to pursue their profession,
though by far the greater number of
crimes are committed at night. These
men work in gangs, which makes sue
cess of opposition to their plans al
most impossible. Indeed, the police
have found it cheaper to refuse to see
their depredations. Yesterday two
members Of the new force of civil 70
lice made an attempt to illustrate the
plans of four footpads. The only re-
suit of their temerity was that the
bodies of both policemen are in the
moryue. Guanabacoa is in a far worse
condition than Havana. These despe-
radoes have as absolute control Of the
two towns as Weyler did of Havana
when he YVES here. The Spanish mill
tary officials say: "Americans are now
responsible for Cuba. If crime is to
be put down let their soldiers come in
and attend to it. For three years they
have said we were brutal in our treat
mcnt Of Cuban criminals. We shall
watch their method with great inter
est" have quoted literally remarks
made by members of Gen. Arola's
staff.

Washington, Nov. q. - In the army
orders published yesterday the an
nouncement is made that under in
