Merritt has issued verbal instructions,

ignated to sail in the second Philippine
expedition, to have finished by Tues
day the placing aboard ship of all camp
equipage and to be ready to embark
their troops by noon Wednesday.
These orders, though not from the Of
fetal typewriter nor graced by the Of
fetal caption, are bOnafide commands
and were actually issued by Gen. Mer-
rift. AS a result. in the camps of the
regiments that are to sail. packing up

Arthur Macarthur, the last Of the
brigadier generals of volunteers or

Francisco for the Manila expedition
has arrived. Gen. Macarthur comes
direct from Tampa and Chickamau@a
camps, where he assisted in the mo-
bilizing of two armies.
Measles threatens to become epidem-
ic among the soldiers at Camp Merritt
and the surgeons in charge of the field
hospital are bending all their energies
to prevent the further spread OF the

The Captain General Need" War
Stores-Spain VIII Try to Furnish
Them.
London, June 1.-THE Madrid CORE
spondent of the Standard says: Gen.
Blanco, having again telegraphed that
i'll case the blockade becomes stricter 1t
will be urgent to send war stores. as
his supply is running short, the gov
eminent has taken steps to dispatch
abundant supplies by fast vessels from
Spain and foreign ports. The more inn
portant supplies from Spain will be
strongly conveyed and will be sent i'm
mediately. Gen. Blanco also tele-
graphs that the authorities at Santiago
de Cuba claim to have repealed the
American attempt to land in the inner
and outer bays of Guantanamo, the
Spanish forces being entrenched in
positions commanding the best landing
places between Santiago and Guam

Indians can be sued in the state
courts, is the gist of decision of the
wisconsin supreme court in the case Oh
w. H. Stacy against Thomas La Belle
"a member of the Menominee tribe, who
had contracted a debt with an Indian
trader. 1t has always been accepted as
law in Wisconsin that Indians could
mot be sued in the state courts TOT
debts, and in this case the trial court
lso decided, and refused to give Stacy
Judgment. The supreme court holds'
however, that the provisions of the
federal constitution do not give the
federal government exclusive jurisdic-
Ition over business agreements between
Indians and white men, and such con-
tracts may be sued on in the state
courts.

OUR OWN SHIPS.

Probable Identy of Those Myster1-
Gus Craft Seen ear Havana.
Key West, June II. - A sensational
story was circulated here that four
suspicious looking vessels had been
seen in Nicholas channel, eighty miles
east of Havana, and headed for that
city. 1t was said that they were aD-
parently trying to elude the blockad-
ing fleet, and some contended that
they were Spanish warships. Others
seemed to fear that the alleged war
ships had run the blockade and had
reached Havana. There seems to he
scarcely any doubt that the four yes
sells were our own WarshipS.

Chicago may fall into the line ct
civic progress and go into the electric
light and gas business for itself. The
city council, at a recent meeting, in
Istructed Mayor Harrison to name a
committee of nine aldermen, with him
self as chairman ex officio, to agitate
the question of municipal lighting. The
project was presented in long resolu-
Ition offered by Aid. Bigane. By the
provisions Of the resolution the COM
mittee is instructed fully to investigate
the municipal ownership of lighting
plants in other cities, and to work for
such legislation as shall permit the city
TO go into the Illuminating business.

SPAIN READY TO GIVE UP.
Sees the Hopelcssrcss of Further
Continuing the War.

Sees the HOpelcSsResS of FurtheH
Continuing the War.
London. June little Madrid cor
respondent of the Daily Mail says:
There is now little doubt that Spain,
seeing the hopelessness of further con-
tinuing the war, is approaching the
powers with view OF obtaining ali
honorable peace. The cabinet council
finally authorized Duke Almodovar Gle
Rio to expedite diplomatic actlon, ana
in consequence the duke IS now con-
ferring with certain Ambassadors ana
ministers in Madrid
Instructions have been telegrapned
to the Spanish minister in Vienna ana
orders likewise given to Senior Agueras
the under secretary OF state, 10 pro
coed at once to the Austrian capltaI.
Spain is unquestionably looking TO
Austria for assistance in her distress.
1t is unlikely that any appeal VIII De
made to the pope as the carrier inter
yention of his holiness met with as
coura cling reception in America. Prob
ably Capt. Gen August will be or
dered to make the best terms he can
with Admiral Dewey. A minister has
Informed me that if achievements
were on their way to the Philippines
August would be ordered to hold OUT
to the last, but as they are not, he
would act according to circum-
stances'-a mild euphonispl for sur
rendering.
The cruiser Lepanto is still at Car
tegena. completing her crew. Orders
have been issued for between 2,OoO
and 5000 men to be assembled at Ca
diZ in case Admiral Canvas squadron
NAV lack its full complement.
All the forces opposed to the govern
ment are showing restlessness. Mar
0uis de CerralbO, the chief agent OF
Don Carlos, assures me that while the
war lasts the Carlists will remain
quiet, but should a dishonorable peace
be negotiated, they will act in ac-
cordance with their ideas OF duty -"
This is a plain statement and should
not be lost sight of, since it is hardly
possible that the government Will be
able to negotiate a peace which the
people will not regard as crushing.

Galesburg, ILL.,, June 11.-The Swed-
ish Lutheran synod completed it's an
nual session here. It voted to meet
next year in st. Paul. The day was
occupied for the most part with dis
cussion of the case of the Rev. j. E.
Saleen Of Lindsnorg, Kan, a director
of the Bethany college, whose exDul-
sion from the church was sought on
charges growing out Of a land trans
action involving property at Belt City,
Ill. A resolution to suspend Saleen
temporarily was defeated and it was
decided to leave the case to the civil
courts.

MAY TAKE SANTIAGO.

Large Force of American Troops
Said to Have Landed There
Cape Haitien, June 14.-Eight thou
sand Americans, according to private
dispatch from Port au Prince, have
landed near Santiago de Cuba. The
United States auxiliary cruiser ST.
Louis has arrived at Mole st. Nicholas.
Washington, June IA. = Up to 1890
o'clock this morning no news had
reached the officials here concerning
the fight at Guantanamo. The report
that 5000 American troops had been
landed near Santiago could not be con-
firmed, and it is evident our troops
have not yet reached those waters.

A THOUSAND KILLED.

Terrible Slaughter in the Recent

Liverpool, June 14.-Steamers which
have arrived here from Sierra Leone
report that a thousand persons were
killed in the recent uprising in that dis
trict One hundred and twenty inhabi-
tants of Freetown, most of them
traders, are known to have been mas
sacred and other cOlonists were carried
into the bush by the 'warboys" and
undoubtedly met worse fate. Three
hundred friendly natives were killed.

Mole st. Nicholas, June IA. n Lieut..
Col. r. w. Huntington's battalion OF
marines. which landed from the trans-
port Panther on Friday and encampeo
on the hill guarding the abandoned
cable STATION at the entrance to the
outer harbor Of Guantanamo, has been
engaged in heading off a rush attack
by Spanish guerillas and regulars since
3 o'clock Saturday afternoon. Inc
fighting was almost continuous TOT
thirteen hours, until o'clocy Sunday
morning, when relntorcements "ele

Among the killed is Assistant Surgeon
John Blair Gibbs, son of Maj. Gibbs.
of the regular army, who fell in the
Custer massacre. His home was at
Richmond. Va, but he has been prac-
ticing in New York, and he entered the
service since the war began. The otn-
ers killed are Sergeant Charles Smith
of Smallwood, Private William
Dumphy of Gloucester, Mass, and Prl-
vate James McColgan of Stoneham,
w wounded in the head. The Spanish
loss is unknown but it is probably con-
siderable. The splashes of blood found
at daylight at the positions the Span
iards occupied indicate fatalities, but
they carried off the killed and Woun-
ded. The engagement began with des-
ultory firing at the pickets, Thousand

New York, June 14.-The Herald has
the following from Kingston, jam:
One of the Herald's dispatch boats
which has reached Port Antonio re-
ports that a fight has taken place at
Guantanamo between the United
States marines and the Spanish troops.
The Spaiards advanced on the camp
the marines had established on the
crest of the heights through the thick
tropical underground. Sergeant Smith,
who was on the extreme outpost re-
lieving the guard, fell at the first fire.
Some marines who were missing have
since been found. The outposts did not
wait to attack the Spaniards, but re-
treated, and later the firing began
again, half a mile to the right in the
woods. There was a short slIirlnish,
and the Spaniards retired. Command
| err McCalla sent a detachment of the
Marbleheads marines ashore in a
launch within a few yards of the shore,
hoping to draw the enemy's fire, but by
the time they arrived there was no
signs of the Spaniards. Nothing is
| definitely known of the strength of the
| Spanish forces, but it is reported that
| there are 5000 Spanish troops in the
vicinity Of Caimanero and Guantana-
| mo- Three hundred Cubans are eX-
| pected tomorrow to occupy a point on
| the other side of the bay from the
camp of the marines.

A Washington correspondent states
that the large number Of reflections or
volunteers has caused much comment
On the army medical corps However,
the physicians who have conducted the
examinations say that outside the
franks OF cigarette smokers there are
even fewer reflections than there were
in the days of the civil war. Among
thabitual users of cigarettes the re-
Elections are about so per cent. DR..
BENJAMIN King of Philadelphia, who
acted as an examining surgeon during
1S61-63 in New York, Pennsylvania,
Ohio and Indiana, says that the aver
age reflections during those years did
mot exceed Is per cent. He attributes
The large increase almost entirely to
the cigarette habit, and says: Il have
been inspecting the papers in number
of cases under the present recruiting
act. and observe the most of the men
who failed to pass the medical exam
snation have weak hearts or lack the
vitality necessary to make good SOL
E1iers. I had expected that the percent
age of reflections would be greater now
khan In 1861, but | did not dream II
would be almost three times as great
The examining physicians with Wnoln
/ have talked have generally told me
the excess of reflections is due TO the
barge number of young men applying
for enlistment who have become VIC
Inns of the cigarette habit.

Modern medical practice will keep
the soldiers as hearty and we'll in Cuba
as in any other section of the country
that the exigencies of war might call
them. Cuba is overrated in its ability
to do harm because the natives there
are not given to exercising the least
sensible care of their health, and even
at that some authorities say the eli
mate is excellent and the general
health good in the islands.
