GAME 0F HIDE and SEEK
HARD TO LOCATE THE SPANISH
SQUADRON.
Sampson Using Every Possible Effort
ley Decides to Invade Cuba at Once.

WASHINGTON, May 1s.-OfliciaI
information was given out late today
to the effect that the Oregon is safe.
Unoilcially it is learned that the Or
egon, Marietta and Buffalo are all
safe.
1t is learned further that these
vessels have joined Admiral Sampson's
fleet and have thereby materially in
creased the strength of that most for
midablc squadron. With the Oregon
safely within the limits Of West In
dia waters. the five great battleships
of the United States are now i'm po-
sition to cope with the entire Spanish
navy if necessary.
Sampson is using every possible eff
fort to bring about conflict. while
the SpaniardS, on the other hand,
seem to he playing a very successful
game of hide and seek That is. the
Navy Department apparently has no
exact information as to the location
of the Spanish vessels. Still it is
thought that the great battle which
was expected to be fought last Sun
day will occur within a few hours.
This belief is based upon the convic-
ton. shared by almost every officer of
high rank in the navy. that Sampson
knows more of the movements of the
Spanish fleet than he has commune
Gated to the department.
The wise action of the President in
removing all restrictions from the Ad-
mirafs movements. not only enables
him to carry out his plans without the
necessity of communicating with the
headquarters in advance, but it leaves
him untrammeled in the matter of
perfecting his program.
CUBAN INVASION AT ONCE.
WASHINGTON, May 1S.-At last the
administration has decided on Wig
orous prosecution of the war. The
President. tired of the dilitory tactics
of the so-caled Navy Strategy Board,
and the failure to definitely locate or
overtake the Spanish vanishing
squadron" has instructed Secretary
of War Alger to prepare for the i'm
mediate invasion of Cuba without the
waiting for the Spanish fleet to show
itself.
1t is understood that this sudden
change in policy was brought about
by the President himself, who since
Sunday last has been very much dis
turbed over reports from Havana that
only remnant of the reconcentrados
survived and that these were on the
verge of starvation. Inasmuch as the
relief of these wretched people was
the very reason for our armed inter
vention in Cuban affairs. the Presi-
dent is keenly sensitive to the crit-
cism which points out that the very
object of the war with Spain is being
defeated by the present dilatory tao
ties of both army and navy.
BOMBARD MORRO CASTLE.
NEW YORK, May 1s.--The Sun in
an extra printed the following from
Havana: Three American warships
today bombarded Moro Castle at
Santiago de Cuba. Only slight dam
age was done. No details of the en-
gagement have been received here.

"GRAND OLD MAN" GONE.
William Ewart Gladstone Succumbs
to the Last Enemy.

HAWARDEN, May 19.-AIr. Glad
stone died at } o'clock this morning.
MIR. Gladstone had been unconsci-
Gus practically all day, though at
times he seemed to recognize for IA mo-
ment some of the watchers about him.
Certainly he did recognize his
wife, who was beside him all day, eX-
cept when the physician prevailed on
her to rest. She tenderly clasped her
husbands hand as she watched him.
Apparently he slept IA good deal; oc.
casionally he uttered few words in
an incoherent, dreamy way; words
which those about him were unable
to catch. Their only consolation was
that he was not suffering pain. No
narcotics were administered.
Though national funeral will
probably be accepted by the family,
there is little doubt that the remains
of Mr.. Gladstone will be laid to rest
in the peaceful graveyard at Hawar-
den, adjoining the church where he
was married more than half century
ago.
William Ewart Gladstone, third son
of Sir John Gladstone, was born De
cember 20, 1909, in Liverpool. He was
educated at Eton, and at Christ
Church, Oxford, attaining a double
first class in 1881, graduated NJ. \. in
1898, and was given the degree of
Doctor of Civil Laws in 1913.
He married Miss Glynne in 1899. Af-
ter six months in Italy he was elect
ed to Parliament in 1892, and soon be-
came known as the ''rising young
hope of the Tories" He accepted Of
flee in Sir Robert Peel's Ministry in
1894, and went out with that states
man.
In and out of Ministries he became
Chancellor of the Exchequer in 1858,
and established himself as a Minister
of Finance with his first budget.
Having become Liberal of the Lib
erals he began in 1869 that wonderful
course of legislation with which his
fame will always be connected. This
includes the disestabishment of the
Irish church and many other measures
not so well known. Prime Minister
four times he went out of office the
last time on the Irish National bill, to
which he devoted the energies or Il
great many years.
He was a wonderful Greek scholar.
and p voluminOus writer on wide
variety Of subjects, particularly Dollt-
ical and theological themes He re
fused an earldom. remained the Great
Commoner, and win ALWAYS be known
as THE Grand Old Man"

THE SOLD|ERSARE COMING HEARD THE TRUMPET GALL.
COLONEL McGREW VOLUNTEERED
LIKE 4 MAN.
How a Veteran of the Army is Es-
teemed by His Former Comrades in
Arms.

Colonel John 5. McGrew is the
proud recipient of a letter from the
Headquarters of the National Nolun-
teer Reserve. of which General Scho-
field is the commander, General Long
street is vice commander, and General
\. Med. McCook secretary. and gener-
ais of both North and South form the
Committee. Colonel McGrew. better
known to our community as the "Doc-
tor" and the Father of AnueNation.' =
as soon as the war news arrived, at
once wrote and offered his services
to his government. He received the
following reply:
Washington, d. c.. May 6, 1898.
Colonel John S. McGrew, Honolulu,
Hawaii.
My Dear Colonel: Nosr patriotic
letter just received.
In reply will say that the National
Volunteer Reserve is TO be called out
after the National Guard. and to take
the place of the National Guard. when
it is called out.
| sincerely trust that there will be
no necessity for another call. but will
enroll your name. and i'm case your
services are needed. they will be call
ed upon.
With warmest regards, believe me.
very sincerely yours,
\. Med McCOOK.
The Doctors war record is a fine
one and though he faced bullets and
stood the racket and hardship of cam
paign life more than thirty years ago
he is as ready as ever to go to the
front and take his share with the
youngest men among us.
Not only did DR.. McGrew receive
this very interesting letter. but by the
same mail he received a draft from the
war department of the United States
paying a draft which Uncle Sam has
owed him for over three decades.
When Kirby Smith moved on Cincin-
natl with the object of occupying that
important position, John S. McGrew
was ordered to join headquarters as
an officer of staff and paid his own
transportation from West Virginia to
Kentucky. The amount of railway
fare has at last turned up and the
Doctor now holds a check on the as
sistant treasurer of the United States
for the amount of six dollars and sew
enteen cents. and who will say that
bread cast upon the waters does not
return after many days.

MAY SEIZE THE ISLANDS
FIFTEEN HUNDRED TROOPS TO
BE LANDED.
It VIII be an Army of Occupation and
VIII be Employed in Fortifying
Honolulu

WASHINGTON, May 16.-Should
Congress fail to move at once in the
matter of Hawaiian annexation seiz-
ure will result, and that very quick
ly. At least President Mckinley is
having prepared a plan for the land
ing at Honolulu of Il regiment of in
fantry and at least two battalions of
artillery to hold the harbor and pro-
tect it from entrance by any foe.
The determination to move with ce-
lerity has been made very recently.
The treatening attitude of Germany
and the peculiar position taken by
France. and the perils of the Philip
pine expedition brought President Me
Kinley at once to see that should eth
er of the European powers desire to
strike the United States in the Paci-
fic just now, their first move would
be to cut off Hawaii.
So it was decided that force of
1,500 men shall be sent down to Hon
olulu at once If Congress does not in
dicate some plan of action.
The men who will go will not only
provide Il garrison. but as well will be
employed in fortifying the town.
