DIRECT FROM SANTIAGO.
"Almost'' Certain the Spaniards Are
In the Harbor.

Copyright 1898. by the Associated Press-)
Kingston. Jamaica, May 2S.-10:30 a.
m.-The United States auxiliary cruiser
Harvard, formerly the American line
steamer New York, arrived here this
morning, after having left the Ameri-
can feet at noon yesterday.
Twelve American WarShipS are now
outside the Santiago de Cuba harbor
and Admiral Cervera and the Spanish
fleet are almost certainly inside. But
nothing certain is known as TO the
communication which Commodore
Schley has had with the short, or as
to the number of Spanish fighting YES
sells bottled up in the harbOr.
1t is TO be presumed that the Har-
ward has important dispatches for the
naval authorities at Washington.
The Harvard, while steaming at full
speed from Port Royal, was boarded
by pilot 20 miles out at this morn
ing. After stopping a few minutes at
Port Royal the cruiser proceeded to.this
port. Captain Cotton received the
representative of the Associated Press
on board. He said the Harvard left
the Mole st. Nicholas on Thursday
came down the Windward passage,
sighted the Cuban coast, and joined the
American squadron at Santiago de
Cuba. As he was short of coal and
water. she sailed for Kingston, bring
ing Clerk Proval. OF the Consulate here,
who, on the Associated Press dispatch

fleet from Port Maria on Thursday

a BRILLIANT AFTERTHoUGHr
II Commodore Schley Only Had a
Balloon.

Washington. May 2S-The possibility
that the balloon can be made a useful
adjunct of the war is suggested by the
problem that confronts Commodore
Schley, if Admiral Cervera is really
bottled up in Santiago harbor. A
practical way of aScertaining that fact
beyond all doubt, suggested today,
would be to send up a balloon from one
of the warships, which are supposed
to be at the mouth of the harbor on a
tour of observation. This, it is believed,
could readily be done without any great
risk or danger to the persons in the
airship. The signal Office has a bal
loon equipment, but it could not be as
certained that any Of the vessels of the
fleet are furnished with it From the
experience of the past there would be
no trouble in initiating a balloon which,
soaring at an elevation of 1000 feet or
more, could have ample opportunity of
observing the entire stretch of coun-
try surrounding Santiago harbor. or of
detecting the strength of the Spanish
squadron, and of noting with consider
able detail all the fertilization works
on either side of the harbor leading to
the city. Such information as might be
obtained, it is pointed out, would be
of inestimable value to the American
fleet, and enable it to act intelligently
in determining what future operations
were desirable

two weeks ago they appeared in Ogden
and Immediately attracted his atten-
ton. When approached as to their
business, they claimed to be horse
buyers from Uintah county, in the en-
ploy of a stockman by the name of
Carter. 1t is now thought that they
had laid their plans to make a raid on
some Ogden bank, but that circum-
stances were not favorable, and the
officers too incuisitive.
ORDERED PROVISIONS.
The Herald's Springville correspond
ent says:
Yesterday afternoon the men called
at the store of James Wignall and or
dered a quantity of provisions to be
other places, and their tough appear
ance was a subject of comment They
spent the night with 7. J. Kerswell,
young farmer, living on the Mapleton
bench. They gave him in payment for
their entertainment an order on the
Springville bank for 81, reading as fol-
lows:
Pay to the order of T. J. Kerswell
two dollars, and charge to the account
of c. T. Carter. By c. F. Burton
Mr.. Kersweu became suspicious of
his guests, and this morning followed
them to town to await developments.
While he was in the street the robbery
occurred. KerSwell at once took up
the chase with his horses and wagon,
being joined by your correspondent and
others.
THE BANK ROBBERY.
It appears that A. o. Packard, book
keeper of the Springville bank, was in
the bank a few minutes before 10
the bank and inquired if Mr.. Curtis had
been there that morning. and if he had
deposited any money. They We're in
formed that no such person had been
there. at which they expressed some
surprise. and for a moment engaged
Mr.. Packard in conversation. He turn
ed mis- head for an instant. and, turn
ing again, was confronted with two re-
volvers and told to throw up his hands
One of the parties Immediately went
behind the railing and proceeded to
take all the cash in sight. In the mean
time Mr.. Packard managed to touch an
alarm button, and a moment later the
ring from the telephone frightened the
desperadoes, and they carefully walked
to the door and made a rush to their
horse and buggy, which was near by.
Hardly had they left the bank when
the alarm was given and c. L. Gran
dali, H. T. Reynolds, Joe Storrs, Mar
shall Temmell and others We're on the
trail. In Is minutes the road was full
of horsemen at full speed.
BOUGHT A HORSE.
On leaving the bank. the men at once
climbed into their rig and drove south,
along State street, heading for Hobble
Creek canyon, by way of Mapleton
bench.
Their progress through town attract
ed attention by the reckless pace at
which the rig was driven. On the
bench they encountered Tommy Smell
son, who had been TO the creamery, and
had his horse and cart laden with milk
cans. Tommy was halted and compell-
ed, at the muZzle of guns, to sell his
horse to them, for which they paid him
S46.50 in silver half-dollars. The money
was in a sack and probably hindered
their movements.
From here they drove rapidly east

MAY FORCE THE HARBoR.
French Comment On the Situation at
Santiago.

Paris. May 2s.-The Gaulois says: It
is quite probable that Schley or Samp-
son will try to force the bay of San
I tiago, riSking all on the attempt. The
passage is a most dangerous operation
on account of the narrowness of the
channel and the tOrpedoes that protect
the entrance. This hypothesis is con-
firmed by a dispatch from Havana, an
nouncing that the American ships will
be concentrated in front of Guanta-
namO and other ports near Santiago, as
wei as before Santiago itself. The at
tack Of the American fleet upon the
Spanish squadron is the only way of
Fastening the conclusion of the war.
1t is useless expecting the Spanish
ships will leave the bay. They have
adopted the only tactics that can be
favorable for them, namely. to avoid
combat, in the hope that fortune may
assist them. Nevertheless, if Sampson
does not try to cut out the Spanish
squadron in the bay of Santiago he
may adopt a plan perhaps more disas-
trous TO Spain. He might leave Schley's
cruisers before Santiago and go with
his monitors to lombard the principal
Cuban ports. What would Cervera do
in that case?

One by one the outlaws fall. Another
was added to the list yesterday.
At this rate the bandits of Robbers
Roost will not last many weeks. The
PEOPLE of Utah are determined to wipe
them out.
Two daring desperadoes robbed the
Springville bank in broad daylight yes
terday, and secured nearly $4,000 in
gold.
One covered the cashier with six
shooters, while the other shoveled the
coin into a canvas bag. Both backed
out through the door, and left town
in a buggy.
But they had not reckoned on the
courage, determination and marksman-
ship of the men of Springville. In ten
minutes 20 men were following a hot
trail.
BY noon the plumber had been recov-
cred.
In two hours from the time the rob-
berS entered the bank, one was dead
and the other handcuffed.
That is the way they treat Butch
Cassiday's bandits in Utah county.
There is no question about their con-
nection with the gang that has infest-
ed the mountains of eastern Utah for
two or three years.
The captured highwayman has been
positively identified as Maxwell, upon
whose head the governor placed price
some time ago.
The dead man has not been identified,
but it is believed that he is another one
of the doomed dozen for whom a re-
ward was offered.
The Herald's correspondent at Provo
relates:
TWO SUSPICIOUS CHARACTERS.
About three or four days ago two sus-
picioUS characters were seen coming
down Provo canyon. They were riding
two gray horses, and both were heav-
lily armed. That evening they stoD9ed
with a Mr.. 2&eldrum, near the Eouth
OF Provo canyon, and claimed that
they were working for a Mr.. Gusts of
Vernal, Uintah county, who, they stat
ed, was buying sheep in this county.
They desired to stay at his place a. day
or two and rest their horses AID
wait for Mr.. Gusts. While stopping
at Mr.. Meldrums they made several
Inquiries in regard to the purchase OF
some saddle horses, and finally nego-
tiated for two or three horses, which
were taken to Meldrum's place yester-
day, and left there, to be received by
the mysterious "sheepherders. In
the meantime the two men came into
Provo and nlred a morse ana buggy
from John A. Lewis livery stable, and
claimed that they were going to the
mouth of Provo canyon to meet their
employer. Later it was Uncovered that
they had gone in the direction of Pleas
ant Grove, and from there all trace of
them was lost.
This took place on Friday, and at
o'clock that evening, the facts having
been made known TO the sheriff's office,
Mr.. Lewis, under the direction of the
county attorney, swore to a complaint
charging the parties, whose true names
were then and still are unknown, with
grand larceny. The complaint was
filed in Justice Booths court, and
warrant placed in the hands of the
sheriff It was supposed by the officers
that the parties intended to do some
thing more than steal the horse and
buggy, and steps were taken to guard
