MORE FINE HEATHER SOLDIERS
Providence Company Refuses to Enlist
and is Promptly Disbanded.

Providence, May 10.-Company B.,
Second regiment, of R. 1. NJ, has re-
turned from Quonsett Point camp, hav-
ing refused to join the volunteer regi-
ment because their captain failed to
pass the examination. The men claim
that favoritism caused his rejection and
they were induced to enlist on the
promise that they would be commanded
by their own officers. On learning of
their action Governor Dyer disbanded
the company to-day. The men care
nothing apparently about the order of
disbandment, and. indeed, many of
them have said that they would never
again wear the uniform of the Rhode
Island militia. Several announced their
intention to go to Framingham and en-
deavor to enlist in Massachusetts regi-
ments.

cHINA,s .41LEGED ACTION.
This Government Not Informed of
Order for Monocacy's Withdrawal.

Washington, May 10.-The report
from Shanghai that the Chinese
authorities have requested that the
United States ship Monocacy withdraw
from that port owing to the neutral
attitude of China, causes some appre-
hension among naval officers here as
the Monocacy is an old wooden ship
which could not move with safety on
the high seas. No official notice of the
order to withdraw has been received
here and the Chinese legation knows
nothing of the matter.

Auxiliary Spanish Cruisers.

London, May 10.-The chambers of
commerce of some of the most import
ant Spanish ports, says a special dis.
patch from Madrid, have decided to

ty knots, to watch the Spanish coast,
venture out to sea and run a blockade

BLOCKADE RUNNING.
The Spanish Steamer MontecraI Said to
Have Succeeded.

Madrid, May 10.-A dispatch received
her from Havana this afternoon says
the Spanish steamer Montecral, which.
with valuable cargo, troops and
large sum of money intended for Ha-
vana, escaped the United States fleet
and entered the port of Cienfugos,
Cuba. 1t is claimed here that this
proves the blockade of the Cuban ports
is ineffective. So many false reports
have been given out in Madrid re-
Gently that American confirmation of
the arrival of the Montecral will be re-
quired before the story is accepted as
truth.

Communicated.

The Shepherdstown and Charlestown
baseball teams crossed bats last Thurs
day. and the result was /; Charlestown
Is. ShepherdStown l. Unfortunately,
our men hadn't been together for a
practice this season, while Charlestown
was well loaded for us, having secured
the services Of five excellent players who
were camping out at Flowing Spring
Mills, to avenge themselves for former
defeats. We were clearly outplayed,
our inability to bat being one Of the tea-
lures g. OF the game.
The home team was, however, ably
seconded by the opportune efforts OF Mr..
Miley. the umpire, who, perceiving that
the score was very close in the first few
innings. threw himself into the game
with commendable o. vigor. admirably
cutting off our chances for scoring al
several critical points. At first we very
naturally allowed our angry passions 10
rise and Kicked vigorously. but Mr..
Miley was so genial and pleasantly OBJ
stinate about il all that, instead OF dark
ly frowning al our miSplayS, as he might
have done, he appeared highly amused
and cheered from time TO time in a sub
dued but enthusiastic manner for
Charlestown. In the fifth inning, when
Mr.. Shepherd put the ball on a man ten
feet from second base and then sat on
him to make sure Of an out, Mr. Miley
declared him safe because he was intent
on watching first base and didn't see the
act at the proper moment We then
PLAYED the last four innings for practice
only and CharleStown scored as they
pleased. For Charlestown. Galloway
and Herbst ielded their positions we'll
while RightSJine and Harris did the best
work for the visitors.
