N ana Mr.. Perciyal Lowell assert that
me planet always keeps the same side
toward the sun, and Mr.. Lowell thinks
II Is a lifeless desert, baked on one

HoNGKONG, May SO-The British Sc
cond-cIass cruiser zahro has arrived here
from Iloilo and Manila. She reports all
| quiet at both places.
| The Spanish garrison at Iloilo numbers
100 men, and the place has no defences.
The foreigners there are safe.
Supplies are reaching Manila plenti-
| fully from the surrounding country. There
| is no panic at Manila.
The Spanards are working upon the
Notifications, but their guns are old and
useless, and they are short OF ammunl-
ton. Rear-Admiral Dewey has Informed
the authorities at Manila that he will
hold them responsible for thu life of the
captain OF the Spanish gunboat Callao,
captured by the United States fleet. The
Spaniards have been threatening to shoot
him for surrendering. although confront
ed by the whole American feet.
All the American ships are at Cavite,
in Manila bay. Salt provisions are pier
tiful, but fresh provisions are not OBJ
tainable. There is no sickness In the
American fleet.
In reply to the Spanish attempt to win
over Aguinaldos men, tho insurgents are
said to have told the Spaniards that they
are neutral and will await events.
INSURGENTS NEUTRAL
The Spanish glnboat FL Cano, which
captured the American bark Saranac,
loaded with coal, and owned by William
Simpson, Jr.. OF New York, has left Iloilo,
and gone to the Samoangan river.
1t is said tho Spaniards released the
Saranac owing to the British flag having
been carried prior TO her capture
The Americans have captured the Span
ish gunboat Leyte, which was attempting.

NORTH CARoLINA's QUOTA.
Governor Russell and the War De-
partment Lock Horns About 1t.

| RALEIGH, n. c., May 3O.-(Special.)-
! Governor Russell and the War Depart
ment have again locked horns, it seems
The Secretary Of War telegraphs the
Governor that 7S3 of the States new
| quota, under the call for SOL more troops,
will be required to recruit the First and
Second regiments 20 $50 each. This, OF
course, wipes out the Third Regiment,
which the Governor had contemplated
forming. Governor Russell replied to the
Secretary Of War that he had thousands
of men for other regiments under their
own officers, but did not propose to use
single man 10 fill the present regiments.
The claim is made by the Governor that
Ii is hard TO recruit on other officers;
that is, to induce men to join OrganiZa-
lions already formed and Differed.
There will be two ways, however, for
the government 20 recruit the First and
Second regiments, which are now only
$50 strong. One way will be through the
colonels and captains making calls on
their respective communities for recruits,
and the other for United States recruit
ing officers i'm the State TO gather men
and send them forward. The government
may go ahead and do either of these
things.
Colonel Burgwyn, who left yesterday
to secure clothing and arms for the Sc
cond Regiment, is hopeful that his sue
cess will be prompt.
The two half companies Of colored
troops from Raleigh, under command OF
Captains Andrew j. Haywood and
James T.. Hamlin, left here at noon to-
day for Fort Macon, the point of rem
devious. Muster-in-O Officer Graham also
went there. The colored people made the
departure a notable event. Two or three
thousand gathered in the park in front
of the railway station, where an address
of farewell was made and America"
and other patriotic airs were sung.
