The messengers say they were in Ha-

a rowboat, in which they made their
escape from the city. They say Ha-
vana is without supplies. The Cubans
report that lard is selling at so cents,
rice at 20 cents, beans at 25 cents, and
meat at rs cents per pound. All are
scarce, and they say that all horses
Of private families, stores and livery

Of Gen. Araolas, the military governor
Of Havana, for the use Of the troops.
There is hardly any traffic in the
streets Of Havana, and groups Of more

thOrized by Congress.
WASHINGTON, June 2O.-There was
a wholesale christening at the navy
department today when Secretary Long
supplied names for no less than thirty
five war craft. All Of these were pro-
vided for in the last naval approprla-
tion bill, and while contracts for their
construction have not yet been let the
advertisements have been issued, ex-
cept in the case of the monitors, and
all the boats will be under way before
big battleships is the Maine, for con-
gress has provided that that name
shall be continued in the naval list.
The other two big battleships will be
called the Missouri and the Ohio.
The first of the torpedo boats bears
the-name Of the brave young ensign,
Bagley, who was killed on the deck of
the Wlnslow under the guns of Car
denas, the first American naval officer
to lose his life in the war
-Four states have the privilege of
giving their names to monitors, Ar
kansas, Connecticut, Florida and Wy
oming.
Inc names given to the sixteen boat
destroyers are those Of Americas fam
Gus naval heroes, Bainbridge, Barry,
Chauncey, Dale, Decatur, Hopkins,
Hull, Lawrence, MacDonough, Paul
Jones, Perry, Preble, Stewart, Truxton,
Whipple and Worden.
The names applied to the torpedo
boats are those Of lesser fame, but
still of glorious memory. Besides Bag
ley's they are Barney, Biddle, Blakely,
De Long, Nicholson, O'Brien, Shubrick,
Stockton, Thornton, Tingely, Wilkes.
There is now only one vessel, either
building or authorized, left without a
name, gunboat officially known as
No. 16.

would not have been unkindly disposed
towards postponement Of this dis
cusslon until we could ascertain what
the issue of the war is to be and what
other questions may be presented to
US. But, Mr.. President, you cannot

ceeds all expectations. This is partic-
ularly true of the larger amounts. The
number of subscriptions received for
sums of $500 and less is large But the
department wishes it thoroughly un-
derstood by the public that even
should the whole loan be subscribed
for sevral times over in large amounts.
every subscription of $500 or less will
be accepted at once, as all small
amounts will take precedence in the al
lotments over large ones. A subscrip-
ton for $20,000,000 has been received
from prominent life insurance COM
pany of New York, enclosing a GER
titled check for 100000, as required by
the regulations governing the placing

clared at any moment, I changed my
resolution and firmly decided to OBJ
serve the most absolute impassability.
UnsWerved from this decision, do not
desire to create the least difficulty for
my country, since it is most important
that all her children should sacrifice
themselves for her. My enforced mac
ton puts me to despair, but I carry it
to the extreme of depriving myself
even of expressing my opinion as to
current events.
CRIME OF STATESMEN.
1.-THE governing statesmen have COM
mitted the crime Of not preparing the
nation for war which everybody saw
was inevitable for the past two years.
No one can accuse me of having with
drawn a single Spanish will from the
forces at the front.
The government has been continue
ally conceding to American demands,
and they will have to take the respon-
sfbility for their mistakes. This atti-
tude of mine will last so long as the
present condition of affairs exists, but
when the hour Of settlement arrives I
will make up for my present silence. I
will then take my revenge, not by
words alone, but by means and acts,
and ! will do that as soon as my con-
science as Spaniard permits me to
do it. l am firmly resolved to fulfill
my duty to the end and to omit no
sacrifice in order to redeem and avenge
Spain.''
ALLIANCES PLANNED.
Don Carlos, when questioned as to
the policy he would adopt in case he
should mount the throne, said he
could not enter upon the subject now,
beyond admitting the necessity for
large increase in the navy, but he de-
clared he had thought out and COM
pleted plans regarding the military
problem and the question Of Spain's
foreign policy.
'They are my favorite subjects Of
meditation" he observed, "and I have
certain mature IDEAS Of my own re-
garding them. I have even carried on
some preliminaries respecting alliances,
which I hope will some day yield ex-
cellent fruits. This, in my judgment, is
the capital point, because the proud
isolation Of Great Britain has been and
is deadly to Spain. I must pass the
same judgment on the policy of going
about begging for protection and inter-
ventiOn.
'The result of such a policy can only
be to reduce to the condition Of Greece
or Servia the Spanish nation, which
was once the mistress of the world"
ONLY MORAL DISASTERS.
Don Carlos spoke eloquently Of the
necessity for prosecuting the war to
the utmost
"Our peoples wonderful nerve, spirit
Of resolution and exalted sentiment
Of honor are" he said, "the only forces
Spain can bring to a nation with
which she may strike an alliance in
the day Of the coming, European con-
fagration. She must, therefore, pre-
serve jealousy that force and spirit

are moral disasters, for we have no
further material ones to suffer, having
suffered all.

HONG KONG, June 2O.-According
to advices from Manila, dated June IL,
it was reported there then that Gen.
Nonel, coming southwark with mixed
troops from Balacan, thirty miles
north Of Manila, found the railway line
blocked and was surprised by am
bushed insurgents. Fierce fighting en-
sued and was carried on for three days,
during which Gen. Nonel was killed.
The native troops Joined the insur-
gents, and the Spaniards who were
left, about 500, surrendered.
SHOT THEIR OFFICERS.
A battalion at Pampanga, of native
militia, supposed to be particularly
loyal, began shooting its officers and
killed five when the insurgents attack
ed Marabon. The Spanish succeeded
in disarming and imprisoning portion
Of them, but they escaped when the
insurgents Captured Marabon. At
Seapote, also. whole regiment revolt
ed at a critical moment.
The authorities still use mixed forces,
with the result that tnsurgent rifle
men are frequently found to have
passed the sentries and to be creeping
along under cover and firing upon the
Spaniards from behind.
WASTE OF POWDER.
The correspondent Of the Associated
Press pays daily visits to the outposts
at the fonda, Santa Ana and Malato,
but there is no perceptibIe movement,
though there is constant firing, which
is for the most part ineffective. Moth
Ing is visible among the trees. The
insurgents, who fire sparingly, draw
abundant Spanish volleys, especially at
night. The Spaniards incessantly
squander tons of ammunition into the
shadows of the thicket, apparently in
the hope Of quickly exhausting their
stock and being in a position to sur
render honorably after a hopeless
fight.
VILLAGES BURNED.
In the meantime the Spanish COM
manders have been ordered to burn
the villages outside the towns so as to
deprive the enemy of shelter, and hun
dreds Of peaceful natives are homeless.
There was a great feast at Cavite on
June IL, when a declaration of inde-
pendence was formally made by Agli-
naldo. He had invited the American
officers to be present. but none ac-
cepted Aguinaldo is reported to have
advocated autonomy under American
protection, similar to the British pro-
tectorates.
The insurgents, 1t Is Believed, out of
Difference to Admiral Dewey, have re-
solved never to lombard.
For several days there. have been tre-
mendous transforms.
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1898-06-21

Mia expedition was also generally dis
cuSsed here today. 1t is thought that
the transports, headed by the cruiser
Charleston, are by this time within
Manila bay. Official information on the
subject is not expected for several
days, and it is practically announced
that Admiral Dewey, who will thus be
reinforced by about 5000 men, is not
expected to take any radical step until
the second expedition arrives. The
troops will be landed at Cavite and
given chance to accustom themselves
to conditions there, preparatory to the
work before them. Admiral Dewey
does not propose to give the European
representatives the slightest preteXt
for intervention or interference, on the
ground of protecting their subjects He
will be amply able to do that himself
when he takes possession of Manila.
CAMARA RETURNS TO SPAIN.
There was something like a broad
smile visible at the war and navy de-
partments today when mention was
made Of the now famous Cadiz squad
ron-famous for it's fondness for home
ports. In some way, not made public,
1T has been ascertained almost to a
certainty that the Cadiz squadron is
again in a Spanish port. This was In
no wise regarded as surprise, for the
government has never given Admiral
Camara credit for intent to cross the
seas and give battle to any of the
American fleets
FUTURE EXPEDITIONS.
Little has been heard today with
reference to future expeditions. The
talk about reduction of Havana has
by no means subsided, but there is
nothing new on the subject today. AS
to the Porto Rico expedition, that is
in about the same condition. All at
tention is now being given the move

it's correspondent has had with Don
