erty placed in his charge and waiting
IN vain for the order to join his COM
pany. Hours passed, but Connolly
stuck to his post. Finally a bicyclist
who CHANGED that way saw the solitary
son of Mars and inquired why he had
not gone with the regiment Connolly
told him that he had been ordered to
guard the property, and must stay until
relieved. But as his commanding Off
GERS had gone. the order could only
come from the war department, so he
asked the inquirer to go and ascertain
what should be done with the property
In his charge. On the way the bicyclist
met an ambulance on temporary COM
m1ssary duty, and on explaining the
case to the driver, the latter went to
Connelly's assistance. He offered to
take the solitary guard and the prop
erty in his charge to the train, which
was on the opposite side of the city,
but Connolly refused to bulge without
orders. So the driver went to the war
department, obtained the necessary or

to the station. The regiment. however.

INSURGENTS AS ALLIES
cUBANs WORKING, IN HAIR
MONY WITH UNITED STATES
Will Be Under the Direction of
Cuban Guides, md They Will Be
the Commands OF Gomez and Gar
cia.

KEY WEST, Fla, May 2S.-The sys-
TEN OF communication between the
United States government and the in
surgents has been so we'll established
that the Cuban forces are working in
perfect harmony with those of this
country. Messengers pass between the
insurgents and United States vessels
every day. Yesterday Ernesto Castro
arrived on the Annapolis with news
from Matanzas province, and this
morning Alfredo Lima was brought in
by the Tecumseh and Manuel iowa
from Eastern Cuba by the Wempatuck
In spite of all that has been said in
disparagement of the usefulness of the
insurgents as allies the army considers
lt-h1ghly essential that for every move
ment on the outside there shall be a.
corresponding movement in the interior.
When the American troops land it will
be with Cuban guides; when they move
inland they will be met by the veterans
or Gomez and Garcia. The war depart
ment is establishing a cu.nplete under
standing with the insurgents and con-
Veying arms to them.
There is no real difficulty in the way
OF landing small bodies of men on the
Cuban shore at night. The shore, ex-
cept at few points, is not so we'll
guarded as it. was a year ago. It is
we'll known that the steamer Dauntless
landed large cargo in Matanzas har-
Dor last year, the lights of the city aid
ing them in finding the landing place.
There is no reason to doubt that present
expeditions and those to go later will
have no trouble whatever.
Practically all the warships are out,
even the monitors, except the Terror
The hospital boat Solzio is still here

COAL FOR CERvERA.
Two Vessels Held at Perth Amhoy
on SUSPICION


on Suspicion.
PERTH AMBOY, N. j., May 2S.-The
American bark Annie Reid and the
British bark Lottie Moore are at anchor
or South Amboy. These vessels have
been loading with COAL The destina-
ton Of the Reid, the Danish West In
dies, and that of the Moore, Vera Cruz,
nave given rise to the suspicion that
the coal is for Cervera's squadron. The
vessels will not be allowed to leave this
port without giving a more satisfactory
account of themselves
Orders were received at the custom
house on Saturday to allow 40 vessel
to leave for the West Indian or Spanish
ports without Instructions AS soon as
the application came in, therefore the
collector of the port of Perth Amboy
telegraphed the circumstances to the
treasury department. He was told to
hold the suspected barks
Capt. o. c. Welt, of the Reid, says
the coal is not intended for Spanish
consumption. He believes that the
owners are sending the coal South on
speculation, hoping that the United
States government will buy it at a high
price.
A vessel loaded with coal and now
at st. Thomas is being held, he says,
the government paying a heavy demur-
rage meanwhile, because 1t is believed
that the cargo may shortly be needed
for use in the navy

FOREIGN OFFICERS FRIENDLY.
They Think the United States Has
Done Very Well.

WASHINGTON, May 2S.-There are
in Washington several military attach
es of European governments sent here
to observe the preparations Of the
United States government for war and
the war operations, so far as may be
possible. The officers in some cases
have gone to the front, or as near it
as the state of preparations will per-
NIT. Others still wait here for the for
ward movement into Cuba to begin.
They have made many acquaintance
in the army and have expressed some
opinions that seem interesting as sug-
costing a point of view generally over
looked. 1t is spoken of as the common
opinion among these officers that the
United States has done wonderfully
well in making an army Of any kind
In so few weeks, considering what ap-
pears to have been next to no prepared
ness whatever 1t Is very impressive
fact, in the eyes of those foreign visi-
tors, that the government has been able
since the call for troops to induce 125, 900
volunteers to enlist in the army, be-
sides some 5000 regulars, to serve for
three years, to say nothing of the ad-
ditional regiments, marines, and sea-
men in the navy.
While the supply of equipments is re-
garded as slow, and as likely to have
been very embarrassing If not fatal If
the war had been against a powerful
and well-prerared nation, this fact that
the first and second calls of the presi-
dent will not afford opportunity to all
who will wish to join the ranks Of the

Reeves has a very good chance Of los
ing the seat in the board of aldermen
that has been claimed for him on the
returns for the Fifth ward. 1t seems
that there was very close counting
done in other wards it being certain
that DR.. Schiffmann carried the Ninth
ward by two votes, in reality.
Mr.. Reeves apparently had a major
ity over Mr.. Gleason Of eight votes, and
unless a great many of the ballots
thrown out are shown to be illegal, in
that they covered more than one can
didate for the same Office, Gleason will
win out in a walk
The recount will begin in the coun-
ell chamber on Tuesday morning and
Will probably continue for three days.
d. T.. PEBBLES will look after the inter-
ests of Mr.. Gleason, and Horace Bige-
low and Henry Johns will be the bot

doubled for bunting in the last three
weeks, and flags have increased In price
correspondingly.

COLLIER DETAINED.
OEcfals at Philadelphia Are Taking
No Chances

No Chances.
PHILADELPHIA, May 28.-The COL
lector Of customs at this port has de-
tanned, pending instructions from
Washington, the German steamship
Amrum, which attempted to clear for
Vera Cruz. Mexico. with a cargo Of
coal consigned to the Mexican Central
railway. The masters of all vessels
clearing for the West Indies or ports in
their neighborhood are obliged, under
the existing government regulations, to
make oath as to their destination, be-
cause it is suspected that recent ship
ments of coal to southern waters were
intended to supply the Spanish Cape
Verde squadron.
During a period Of twenty-four days
there has been shipped from this port
52,076 tons Of coal to ports in the West
Indies and the northern coast of South
America, and the belief has been ex-
pressed that from 1900 to $1,000 tons
of this coal has been delivered at sea
to Spanish vessels. The customs au-
thorities, under a hint from Washing
ton, will keep themselves informed of
the destination of all cargoes Of coal
hereafter.

PrOmised-R0adH Has Never Paid
Its Present Owners
Negotiations are pending between
Thomas Lowry and the present stock
holders of the ST. Paul & Suburban
Railway company for the purchase of
the stock of the company to be oper-
ated i'll connection with Mr.. LoWry'S
system of electric railways in the Twin
Cities.
A heavy stakeholder in the company
was seen yesterday in regard to the
matter, and stated to The G o that
the stock had not been sold, but that
ii had been offered for sale and had
been purchasable for some time When
asked If Mr.. Lowry was figuring upon
it with view to purchase, he refused
to be further interviewed.
1t was, however, learned from an
other source that Mr.. Lowry had for
some time been seriously considering
the purchase of the Wildwood line,
and was at present about to close the
deal. AS an investment, the road has
never been a paying one. but operated
In connection with the Twin City cleo
trio Railroads.&c. might be made paying
venture. The most potent factor in
giving complexion to the proposed pur-
chase was that, as a summer resort,
Mr.. Lowry could extend his popular
excursions another twenty-five miles,
and thereby popularize them to an
even greater extent than they already
promise to be.
Should the purchase be made, the
deal will undoubtedly be closed within
the near future.
In that event, there will undoubtedly
be additional attractions at this resort,
and considerable money expended in
bringing this about.
Improvements may be made in the
read bed, and it is not improbable that
through line to the city may be put
in next season.
