AMERICAN FIRE FURIOUS.
Spanish Suffer Severely in the At
tack at Santiago.

London, June o. 8 a. m.--Fhe Madrid
correspondent Of the Standard says: at
Is reported that during the engagement
at Santiago two shells struck the Vizeaya
and one the destroyer Furor.
Admiral Cervera praises the splendid
behavior of the marine brigade that serv-
ed the guns of the Castillo de la Socapa
battery under the terrible fire for several
hours.
"The papers are doing their utmost to
dispel the unfavorable impression made
by the news from Santiago, and they re-
commend the authorities to give more de-
tails and not to keep silent on the facts,
which afterward would leak out through
foreign or private sources.
Nevertheless, late last night and again
this morning the ministers and leading
officers were very reticent. although they
admitted having received fresh dispatches
from Havana and Santiago, which Gen
Correa and Capt. Aunon had eommuni-
Gated to Senior sagasta before replies We're
cab.ed to Capt Gen, Blanco and Admiral
Cervera.
Press dispatches say that the Reina
Mercedes suffered most from the shell fire.
which mortally wounded her commander
Capt. Acosta. The total number of fatali-
ties on board the ship was thirty-nne
the captain, Ave seamen, and twenty-one
marines killed, and Aeutepant and eleven
men wounded Most of the Hontoria and
Krupp guns had, before the action, been
placed In the Socapa battery.
Admiral CerVera's squadron, with
steam up. was lying behind the first line
Of defenses in the chanel leading from the
bay, ready to cooperate, but the land de-
lenses sufficed to keep the American fleet
from attempting TO force the entrance.
THE loyalst volunteers, according to the
press dispatches, took part in the gallant
defense of MORO fort, losing two officers
and several men. They also assisted the
troops to oppose an American landing at
tempted at two places,
Capt. Gen. Augusta has telegraphed,
through Hong Kong, important dispatches
which the government has not yet publish
ed. 1t Is understood, however. that he re-
ports he has concentrated the Europeans
within the lines of Manila, which have
been much strengthened against land at
tacks
In consequence of the spread of the ag-
itation fomented by Agunaldo, the natives,
however. are so divided that Spanish Of
ficials continue to hold many provinces in
the island of Luzon and elsewhere
THE efforts of the dsaffected are limit
ed to the neighborhood of Cavite, Manila,
and they are backed up by the Americans
Such is understood TO be the substance
OF the captain generals dispatch.
THE government does not purpose to
send reliefs or a squadron 20 the Philip
pines just yet. Capt. Aunon, minister Of
marine Will probably go to Cadiz shortly

ANGLO-sAxON ALLIANCE.
John Morley Says Its Value Depends
Upon Its object.

Upon Its object.
London, June S.-The Right Honorable
John Morley, liberal. NJ p, speaking at
Leeds this evening and referring to the re-
cent Birmingham speech OF the Secretary
of State for the colonies, the Right Hon
orable Joseph Chamberlain, on the subject
of an Anglo-Saxon alliance, said that he
did not believe word of oil the gloomy
talk about Engands isolation and threat
ening prospects" unless she secured an al
lance with Germany or America.
"England's naval power Is gigantic. her
financial resources and credit are hrmer
than ever" said Mr. Morley, land the
spirit of her people to repel invasion or to
protect their rights is as great as at the
beginning of the century. The whole coun-
try desires more intimate relations with
the United States, an end always dlligent-
ly worked for by Lord Salisbury and Mr.
Gladstone. 1t Is unconceiVable however
that n treaty between Great Britain ana
the United States could be entered upon
without taking into consideration the Irish
vote In America II the vote Is against the
treaty il Is not the fault of the liberal
party"
Proceeding to discuss the kind OF alliance
Intended, Mr. Morley said. IF &c is an al
lance for peace and harmonious COOPER
alton for the mutual good IL will indeed be
the dawn Of brighter days. But is thar
what is intended? or is It to be an alliance
between the jlngoes Of America and the
jingoes Of England. an alliance not for
peace, but for menace and war?
we shall see, but / know tens of thou
sands Of the best and wlsest men In Amer
lea believe that hardly any more mex

a Remarkable Feat.

Prof Dewar's liquefaction of hydrogeS
under conditions of atmospheric pressure
is a remarkable feat, and one which may
be expected to have an important bear
ing in the future on physical research at
low temperatures, says the New York
Times. So far no attempt has been made
to apply the discovery to practical pur-
poses, only small quantity of liquid hav-
ing been obtained. In fact, the supply Of
gas was cut off after a few drops had
been collected, by the fact of the supply
pipe becoming blocked with solid frozen
air. The boiling point Of hydrogen, or In
other words the point at which the gas
becomes liquid. Is within 20 or 80 degrees
OF IA degrees centIgrade, which Is stat
ed as the zero of absolute temperature
Liquid hydrogen is colorless. and has a
larry high index of refraction. Its tent
perature Is so extremely low that IL tne
sealed end of glass tube he dipped in IT,
the tube becomes filed with solid ar
where the liquid surrounds it. Helium IN
the same way becomes condensed, al
though its boiling point is almost as 10"
as that of hydrogen. There was sotne-
what remarkable scene at the meeting Oh
the Royal Society when Prof DeWar an
nounced his latest discovery. At the close
OF the paper several fellows rose 70 make
comments, and Prof. Ramsay stated once
more on behalf of Prof Olszewski of Cra-
COW that he had received a letter IN 1870
from that patient experimental (whose
work Is said TO have been used WITHOUT
acknowledgment by the Royal Institution.
