batteries are being called in from the
interior and the field batteries from
the outskirts. Everything points to
the fact that the Spanish intend To
make a serious and vigorous defense.
Among the soldiers, both officers and
men, the greatest enthusiasm appears

In an interview Captain General Au-

Spanish point of view IL is a great
pity that their position is not stronger,

out regard to a brigade organization or
any specified number of troops.
The Puebla and the Peru lave al
ready been secured, and a third trans
port has been practically decided upon,
although the army authorities are not
yet willing to give out her name Off
cially. An attempt will be made to get
the expedition away by the 10th of July,
but II the vessels go in a fleet this can
not be lone. The City of Puebla is
ready, and it is reported that the de-
partment is considering the plans of
sending the ships out as fast as they
are fitted up. Steamship men say that
this is the proper way to do. for IL Ca

canal a fleet of transports could not be
sent from here with safety after July

The troops to go on the fourth expedi-
tion will not be selected until all the
transports have been decided upon, the
object being to adapt the organization
of the troops to the capacity of the
vessels. General Merritt has asked the

General Merritt's Plans.

San Francisco. June 2e.-Major Cen
eral Merritt expects to reach Manila by
July % or August / at the very latest.
Before his arrival Genera Merritt will
have consulted with Admiral Dewey as
TO the ACCESSIBILITY of making a joint at
tack on Manila. General Merritt's in
stallation as governor general will be
attended by as little ceremony as pos
sible. In his proclamation he will as
sure the people that their forms of wor-
ship and churches will not be interfered
with. This will be made clear. as will
also the fact hat property is not TO
be coniscated, in order to offset repre-
sentations to the contrary which nave
been made by agents OF Spain. The
general has requested the war depart
ment to appoint Major T. l. Rathbone
as his personal representative in san
Francisco.

President wattles OF the exposition.
A score or more of Montanans were
In the company that filled the pleasant
downstairs rooms OF the building. Mr..
Sutheriin expressed great regret that
the governor was not there. He owned
that he was proud that Montana was
among the first states to promise par
~ticipation in the exposition, and he was
glad that the enterprise had reached
the present point of success. Though
there were few people of his state pres
ent on the occasion. he said he felt safe
in WINS assurance that there would be
plenty of them here later on. Refrain
ing from making any extended talk
about the of Montana, he
referred those interested to various ex-
hibits that the state had placed on the
grounds.

Just before the Empress left an alb
surd rumor was current at Hong Kong
that Admiral Dewey had been assassi-
mated. This was set at rest by the
arrival or June 6 OF II. NJ. S. Swift with
dispatches from Manila. These dis
patches led TO the belief that in con-
sequence OF the straits to which the
S%paniards had been reduced IL was
probable that by the time the first
troops arrived from San Francisco the
governor general of the Philippines
may have surrendered and the Ameri-
can and their native allies nay be in

San Francisco, June 29.-The steam
