WAR GOSSIP.

Chief Constructor Hichborn estimates
that it will require an expenditure of $500,
900 to put the Spanish flagship Infanta
Maria Teresa in serviceable condition.
This amount is proportionately small
compared to the benefit gained, as the
Teresa could not be duplicated for less
than So 900 900.
1t now rests with Congress to say
whether this amount shall be expended in
repairs, but there is little doubt that the
appropriation will be made.
Whether Col VIM. j. Bryan remains
in the service now is said to depend upon
the action of the 1St Neb. Nebraska has
more than her quota in the service, and
one regiment must be mustered out. The
1st Neb, now at Manila, and which did
excellent service there, will be given the
choice of remaining in service or coming
home. ii it decides on the latter the Sd
Neb., Col. Bryan's regiment, will be re
tanned but if the 1St Neb wants to stay
in, the Sd Neb will be mustered out.

Mr. Richardson's eloquent speech
was loudly ana frequently applauded.
In concluding he expressed the hope
that the sun of liberty and freedom
may soon shine forth over The hills and
plains of Cuba. He then introduced
Judge Lee, who delivered {, most hap
Ply ten minutes address. He told his
audience. in the stirring eleoquence of
which he is master, that while war is
to be dcplored. we are now in the midst
OF u conflict With another nation and
there is nothing for us to do but to-
meet the issue as Americans have al
ways done. when their country w;Ls as
sailed from without. He refereed To the
friglstful history of Spain. which is
written in blood. and stirred the null
titude al his feet To loud applause by
declaring That she must be driven from
the western hemisphere. Once proudly
dominant. the story of her persistent
cruelty and missovernment is such
That there is none SO poor rs to do her
reverence. He spoke of the causes
WATCH led To the present conflict and
TOLD the story in words which brought
Il hearty response from every heart
He had hoped that the United States
would impress the world with her NOR
al superiority and avert war. but it
was not to be so. and we must meet
1t as men. aye. as American men. Ia
closing Judge Lee atlmonished the sol
