Nebraska gave women school suffrage

1886 New Brunswick and Ontario gave

few kilograms concerning some routine
details.

is doubtful whether he will be able to

remedied, but several regiments that
are TO be sent from Camp Alger and
Chickamauga are expected 20 leave
early this week. The second lombard

until the fleet finishes it's work before
Santiago. Secretary Long, however.
thinks the vessels will be available for
San Juan in a short time. 1t has not
yet been determined how large a fleet
shall be sent TO San Juan, nor of what
ships it will be composed. 1t will be of
sufficient strength, however. to reduce
the defenses. without any doubt as to
