THE VAR SITUATION.

Elsewhere we give the definite news
from Dewey's victory at Manila in his
own kilograms. The latest news says
that he is having some little trouble
with Spanish treachery there, but he is
master of the situation.
Simpsons feet left Cuban waters
several days ago, but there is no news
of its movements and all is expectancy
regarding it.
News of an engagement with the
Spanish fleet near Porto Rico is daily
expected.
There was "vest pocket" engage
ment at Cardenas on the Cuban coast
Tuesday between the torpedo boat
Winslow and some Spanish gunboats
at Cardenas harbor. The gunboat
Machias quickly went to the Win
slows assistance and no damage wal
done to our boats. and possibly none
to the Spanish boats or batteries
Meanwhile preparations for serious
warfare are active. The troops will be
moved from Raleigh to Chlckamauga
In few days, 1t Is said.
Thus far the American forces have
lost only one man, and that was an en-
gineer who died from overhead on the
Mccullough in the engagement at Ma.
mia.
THE COMMONWEALTH still speaks re.
assurlngly to our people and believes
that the war will not be serious enough
to disturb the country long.
Let us go about our own farm work
our merchandise, our business enter
prises of various kinds, praying and
believing that the God of the nations
will not permit the horrors of war to be
long drawn out.
