Occupation of Cuba Will Not Be as Easy as
 Reported.
Spaniards of Havana Have Good Defenses, Plenty of Food
 and Ammunition.

KEY WEST, Fla, May 26.-The feel is rapidly changing regarding the re- sistance to be expected from the Span iards pending the occupation of Cuba, and upon other matters of vital import. Every expedition that returns from Cuba helps to dispel the belief that the Spaniards are by any means neglecting every precaution for a long and deter mined resistance. It has Geen circu- lated that the Spanish arc short of am munition, especially powder, but as a matter of fact 1t is known here that there is a large powder factory running night and day turning out smokeless and black powder The use of smoke less powder is proving a great advan- tage to the Spaniards. The land patrol of the Cuban coast is excellent, while the fleet of torpedo boats at different points along the coast are larger in number and size than at first calcu lated.
 The army of occupation will have to encounter, 1t is claimed by foreign resident of Havana now here. a force of acclimated, well drilled Spaniards is in constant cable communication with Cuba.
 I asked him whether he believed the reports of Havana becoming short of provisions. He replied: No; but I can easily find out" He wrote a dis patch to one of the secretaries of Blanco, addressing him not in an off, oial capacity but as a practicing phy- sician to the effect, How are Mary and

MATRON ROYCE
 HAS RESIGNED A Sensation at AgneWs
 Insane Asylum. SCANDALOUS STORIES TOLD. A YOUNG LADY's CHARACTER UNJUSTLY ASsAILED. Dr. Sponogle Also Involved by the Talkative Matron, Whose
 Charges Are Found to
 Be Groundless.
SCANDALOUS STORIES TOLD.
A YOUNG LADY'S CHARACTER
 UNJUSTLY ASSAILED.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SAN JOSE, May. 26.-Miss Ella Royce, matron of Agnews Insane Asy- Ium, has resigned her position, and there are several sensational stories af10at as to what brought her retire -rment about. The board of managers held meeting at that institution yes tefday and the session was a stormy one It is said Miss Royce was given the privilege of resigning or being dis charged, and she preferred the former The trouble originated thus: A story became circulated among the young lady attendants that Miss Royce had accused one of their number of immor- al conduct The young lady whose character was impeached became in- an investigation. Then Dr. Sponogle, the medical director, was dragged into the scandal It is said Miss Royce de- nied making charges against the young lady attendant, but said that she had stated that Dr. Sponogle had made inn proper advances toward herself. This accusation was denied by the doctor.
 It is impossible to learn just what oc- cured at the meeting, but it is said that the managers sustained Dr. Spon- ogle and that Miss Royce was given to understand that she would have to go.
 Rumor has it that Miss Royce's re- tirement is but the beginning of some very sensational developments at the asylum, and that the whole affair will eliminate in thorough investigation.

ROADBED FOR
 VALLEY ROAD Dredgers Working West
 of Stockton. LAND WILL BE RECLAIMED A BIG WATERWAY WILL ALSO
 BE MADE.
The Channel Will Be Fifty Feet Wide and About Ten Feet Deep - A Great
 Improvement.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

STOCKTON, May 26.-Vice President Robert Watt says that the scheme of building the roadbed across the swamp has been abandoned, the difficulty of getting brush for the fascines making the construction too expensive. The short piece of roadRed built in that way near Old River has been a success, as far as practicability outside of cost is concerned, but it is much cheaper and would probably be just as satisfactory to throw up an embankment with dredgers. Three dredgers are at pres ent engaged in making a roadbed through the swamp land between here and Brentwood. Two of them are at work in this county, and the third just beyond the county line.
 The dredgers must necessarily dig a channel wide enough for them to pass through. This channel is about fifty feet wide. The earth excavated is thrown to one side, forming the road bed. Tn order that 1t may not squash out, the embankment is being con- structed gradually, the height being in- creased from time to time as the mate rial hardens. By the time the roadbed Is finished the channel from which the earth is taken will be about ten feet deep.
 This will make quite a waterway and as it will be seven miles long it might be used to advantage for pur- poses of navigation or drainage, but in all likelihood it will not be put to such uses, for land owners will probably connect levees with it, utilizing the roadbed as one levee in retaining 1T air land

the children doing; have they all they want?" The reply he showed me read, Doing we'll enough for months yet"
 The same authority claims the ~uns of Havana's Notifications are in charge of German, French and English off, cers, whose services had been secured before he left the island. The same in formation is obtained from the corre- spondent of the London Times here, who only left Cuba a few days previ- ous to the declaration of war. He also corroborates the figures regarding the strength of the Spanish forces, the ex- cellence of the Spanish coast patrol, and he expresses a belief that Havana can hold out for months yet, so far as the question of provisions is concerned. The Spanish fleet, he maintains, is car rying out exactly the policy which he had been informed they would follow by the Spanish authorities before he left Cuba, and the tactics of the Span ish admiral for the future will be to close himself up in Santiago, where there is a good coal base, and endeavor to draw on the United States vessels to battle. By this time the Spanish fleet now getting ready at Cadiz will be here to support him and to attack American vessels in conjunction.
 a competent authority here who knows every inch of the harbor and ap- breaches, will be this: The American fleet cannot judiciously attack the Spaniards in the harbor; they can only blockade. As soon as the Cadiz fleet arrives sortie will be made and an at tempt made to hem in the United States ships in the channel and force a fight by land and sea-

 Locality.
GREAT CAUSE OF REJOICING
 AMONG VALLEY PEOPLE.

BAKERSFIELD, May 26.-Never be- fore in the history of Bakersfield was the town so gayly and elaborately deco rated as it is tonight. The main streets and many residences are perfect laby- rinths of f1uttering red, white and blue, green and yellow, all in honor of what this people are pleased to call Valley road jubilee" which will come with the rising of to-morrow's sun. Everything is alive with a spirit of festivity. There has been a hard tussle between war and jubilee spirits, but at last the lat ter are triumphant, and tomorrow promises to be the greatest day of re- joicing ever known in this portion of the country. The thought of being re- lieved from the grinding rule of the Southern Pacific causes old men to re- joice as they never have before and young men to see bright visions of commercial freedom.
 Just how extensive the crowd will be tomorrow is hard to estimate. The advance guard began to arrive last night, and all day the town has hustled with the throng. Los Angeles arrived in full force tonight. and in the morn ing Fresno, Hanford, Visalia, Tulare and other up-valley towns will pour in.
 The trades procession will begin at 10 o'clock and wind up at the Airing ton Hotel corner where speechmaking and other ceremonies will take place. There will be five brass bands in the parade, besides Chinese music galore. The Chinese feature of the parade promises to be unusually attractive. All the Mongolians will take an active part in the celebration. They have im- ported 1000 worth of trappings from San Francisco to help their procession al display. There is to be Wild West show, a barbecue, and great ball in the evening" The ball will take place in a new warehouse, 50 by 400 feet, near the Valley road depot.
 Besides a vast display of fireworks, there will be many significant features among the decorations. One store keeper has two windows trimmed up, one being labeled 1888" and the other "1S9S." On the former appears this in scription MT Huntington, can't we induce you to give us lower freight rates?" Mr. Huntington-"Oh, my dear sir, you are unfortunately off the line of competition"
 Under the 1898 date the story appears thus: MT Huntington-"Mr. Farmer, can't induce you to allow me to haul your wheat?"
 Farmer-"Oh, my dear sir, you are unfortunate in being located on the line of competition"

NEW YORK, May 26.-It was a frightful day at Morris Park to-day. The rain poured in torrents and the track was like a quagmire.

Up the hill they rushed like a team, but before they had reached the summit Hamburg was done to a turn. Then Previous set sail for the flying Bowling Brook and for a few seconds it looked as if he might overtake the leader It was a useless chase, for Littlefield let out a link and it was all over. Bowling Brook crossed the line half a dozen lengths in front, pulled in to an abso- lute walk, while Previous got the sec ond place by ten lengths. Results:
