be sadly missed. During the absence
OF Mr.. Gollan, Mr. Jerome will be in
charge, and will look after American
interests, as did Mr.. Gollan after the
departure Of Gen. Lee from Havana
While Mr.. Jerome will naturally be as

he cannot exercise the influence gained
by Mr.. Gollan after years of service in
the Cuban capital.
SPANISH TRICKERY EXPOSED.
The government Is not at all worried
over the report that Germany has land
ed marines at Manila and taken pos
session of the place under the pretext
Of protecting German subjects. Tna
government, so it is said in well posted
circles, is in possession of positive in
formation that Spanish agents are en-
gagged in circulating reports calculated
to stir up trouble between the United
States and Germany, and to embroil
America and France as well. 1t Is a
well-planned scheme that will fall fiat
if for no other reason, because the gov
ernment now knows that Spain, and
not Germany, Is responsible for the cir
culation of all such wild stories. The
government officials who have discussed
the matter at all have expressed con-
f1dence that Germany will maintain the
strict neutrality promised.
DEWEY NOT DISTURBED.
The government has every reason to
believe that Admiral Dewey is in COM
plete control of the situation at Ma
Mia. Had there been any real ground
for fear of interference, such as is in
dicated in the talk about German or
other foreign forces taking possession
Of Manila, the officials of the navy and
war departments and the chief execu-
tive would certainly have been inform
ed thereof ere this. Admiral Dewey has
probably been reinforced by this time,
| and the fall Of Manila is looked for at
an early date.

Pope and Douglas counties are looked

Sixth district counties
When the ranks begin to break up,
1t is difficult to tell which way the tide
will turn. 1t is generally believed that
the southern counties which will sup
port Van SAINT, will prefer Collins to
Eustis, especially if they can get Lam
gum for secretary.
Whether or not they can persuade
the convention to shelve Berg, after
the way he ran two years ago, Is a
serious question, and the disposition Of
this office may give a good deal Of
trouble unless the nomination of Van
SAINT at an early stage In the ballot
ing should throw Langum out of the
race perforce.
The Ramsey delegation is going after
Reese, first of all, and will probably
leave Berg to shift for himself but the
Chisago county concert singer has been
looking forward to this same anti
Reese fight for two full years, and
ought to know where he can count his
noses If the men he looked to were
taken care of in the delegations chosen.

man, however, could get all these la
votes in addition to the 42S averred to
be for him, 1t would make but 546, still
quite little short Of enough to capture
the nomination on the first ballot.

NO NEWS AT WASHINGTON.
WASHINGTON, June 23.-Up to 1890
tonight neither the war nor the navy
department had received any news
from either the troops or the fleet in
the vicinity of Santiago. The navy de-
rartment had several messages during
the evening from Admiral Sampson,
but all of them related to purely rou-
tine matters of no possible interest to
the public. Admiral Sampson made no
reference to fight or even to skirmish-
ing, and his silence on that point, to-
gether with the fact that nothing has
been received by the war department
from Gen. Shafter, is taken by the Of
Gals of both departments to mean that
no engagement in the least way serious
has occurred since the landing of the
forces.

WASHINGTON, June 2S.LThere is
naturally little else save the situation
at Santiago discussed here today. But
there are various phases of the situa-
ton. and not the least is the question
as to what Gen. Miles intends to do.

rect that the war department officials
ana Gen. Miles are at variance as to
the better place for q general to be-
at the front, with the troops he is in

his subordinates. The belief is that
Gen. Miles will go to the front, and
within brief period-perhaps with the
next refnforcements that are sent

CERVERA ALARMED.

MADRID, June 23.-News of serious
fighting near Santiago de Cuba has
been received here. Admiral Cervera
cables that the situation is critical, and
the governor of Santiago admits the
Spaniards have been obliged to retire,
but a Spanish victory is claimed
SPANISH CLAIMS.
MADRID, June 23.-The minister for
war, Gen. Correa, it is announced, has
received an official dispatch from San
tiago de Cuba announcing that the
Americans attack on Punta Barraco
has been repulsed after hard-fought
and bloody engagement"
Punta Barraco is situated a short
distance from Baiquiri, where the
United States troops landed yesterday.
1t is near to the coast and is under
the guns of the American fleet by which
l. can be judged that it is highly i'm
probable that the army has been re-
pulsed, as stated in the above dis
patch.
MADRID is NOTIFIED.
MADRID, June 23-An official dis
patch from Santiago de Cuba, dated
June %, today, says:
'The attack commenced yesterday.
The enemy concentrated his land. forces
in front of Punta Barraco, lying east
ward of our left flank, which extended
for eight leagues along the coast"
Another official dispatch from Ha-
vana says:
1.-The commanders at Santiago de
Cuba announce that the American
squadron has commenced the lombard
ment and is trying to disembark at
Baiquiri and at Punta Barraco.
IAN American warship has shelled
and destroyed a small wooden fort
near Cienfuegos. Several Spaniards
were slightly wounded"

Hard Luck Stories.
SEATTLE, Wash, June %. = Fifty
prospectors, who left here last spring
for Alaska by way Of Copper river,
have arrived here on their way to their
Eastern homes, with hard luck stories
and no gold. A. H. Hostetter, of La
grange, Ind, was with 200 men that
crossed Tasmania lake and reached the
Konsinu river. He said:
"Of the many hundreds that landed
at the foot Of the Valdes glacier only
one party had been in further than the
Konsinu, and they returned half
starved, having lost their outfits in
the rapids It was reported that seven
lives had been lost in the rapids, but
the report had not been confirmed
The most discouraging story Is told
by A. c. Johnson, of St. Louis He
said about 800 men have turned back
and are waiting ait Valdes for some
means Of getting out of the country.
Some have no money and will have to
remain there until the government
sends help. They will not starve, for
tons Of provisions have been aban-
doned. 1t is impossible to sell outfits.
