concerning our actions in Tie East

General Miles has secured an i'm
portant Spanish document, giving COM
plete knowledge of the distribution Of
troops in the district of Holquin, San
tiagO province, and what the Spaniards
intend doing when our army reaches
that point. The document is an order
signed by Luque, Spanish commander
in Holquin. The courier carrying the
paper was killed in a skirmish by Gu
bans and the letter secured. Luque
says the only way to defeat the Ameri-
cans is to remain on the defensive.
Serenity is the only thing advise"
he says. IF our officers are serene
the American recruits will encounter
trouble and defeat"
Another formidable American fleet
has been assembled, consisting of six
ed by the big battleship Indiana, which
for all around effectiveness stands at
the head of the navy. This fleet is as
as a convoy for the troop transports
from that port. The formation of this
formidable convoy fleet is due to the
reports more or less indefinite that
Spanish warships were lurking be-
tween Florida and Cuba with a view of
intercepting the troop transports. In
order to avoid the slightest possibil-
ity of demonstration by Spanish
ships against the troop transports,
this new fleet of sixteen warships
was determined upon
Secret advice from Madrid shows
that inner official circles admit the
war Is practically lost. The Philippines
will be abandoned. No expedition has
been sent or will dare to be sent for
the relief of the Spanish forces there.
The West Indies situation is admitted
to be hopeless. The Cadiz fleet must
be kept close to home to avert a COL
lapse there. Sagasta, through the Off
cial press appeals to Spaniards to be
calm under misfortune. His greatest
fear Is a revolution. The public is
growing sullen as it finds all alleged
victories are lies. The supernatural
immunity of Americans under Spanish
fire lends superstitiousness to hope
lessness. The, talk concerning peace is
still aimless. 1t is too early to quit and
too late to save the colonies. Foreign
Intervention is no longer expected,
and the only plan is to continue the
fight until the United States is willing
to open negotiations. There is report
that preliminary conference will be
held at Paris shortly, and that Min
lister Woodford Is expected to be
there.

Kentucky distillers propose to send
$4,000 bottles of whisky to Cuba for
the American soldiers when they oc-

The government has rented from

If one of the Hobson's choice para

The National Guard of California
Is not to be rehabilitated. Members
who volunteered for service in the
army of the united States in the pres
ent war are to be members of the
guard during their absence, and when
they return they are to have the same
rank and station as before enlistment.
This is to be effected by granting all
volunteers who were recruited from the
guard leave of absence to go to the
war. No new men are to take the
places of those who volunteered, and
the state Is to wait with its skeleton
regiments for the return OF the pa
triots.
The case of John d. Berry, of Phoe-
nix, who returned from a three
months prospecting tour on the Col
orado river, is an excellent illustration
of the inaccessibiiity of some parts
of Arizona, in spite of the various
conveniences of modern civilization.
Mr.. Berry knew nothing of the war
with Spain until May 4th, when he
