GERMANS CRITICISED.
Incidents of the Arrival of the Trans
ports at Manila.

LONDON, July 5.-The Hong Kong CORE
spondent Of the Daily Mail says: THE tri-
umphal entry of the reinforcing squadron
into Manila harbor was married by an un-
pleasant incident, for which the Germans
were responsible. As the ships came up the
bay they were closely followed by the Ger
man war ship Kaiserin Augusta, which had
been cruising about Marivelee for some
time. The impression given every one who
watched her was that she was not only
making a close observation of the Ameri-
can forces, but endeavorlng to show both
Americans and SpaniardS that she repre-
scented a nation which must be reckoned
with in. the present crisis The feeling
among both Americans and Englishmen in
the bay is that Germany's attitude as
shown by those movements, is highly rep
rehenSible and anything but respectful to
the United States. Many German mer-
chants at Manila are almost as much dis
pleased by the incident as are the English.
THE annexation OF the Ladrone Islands
was marked by a ludicrous incident The
Charleston entered the harbor of Guahan
and fired seven guns at the forts. The
governor thinking this was a salute, sent
word that he regretted his inability to re-
turn 1t, as he was without powder. When
informed that he was. prisoner of war
he Indignantly protested, saying that he had
no idea that war had broAen out. An
American citizen residing in the town was
appointed provisional governor of the La
drones.
Among those on board the captured
Spanish gunboat Leyte was the governor
or HaInpdngaS, WITH loO OIucerS anG men
Harassed by the rebels and believing that
starvation was. at hand they evacuated
Pampangas and were trying to cross to
Manila harbor when they were captured.
The United States cruiser Baltimore met
the transports off Cape Engano, on the
northern coast of Luzon, on Tuesday, June
q. When the troop ships were sighted by
the American squadron in the mouth Of the
bay the crews of the latter crowded upon
the decks and received their comrades with
enthusiastic cheers. Complete preparations
had been made for the reception of the re-
Inducements at Cavite, the navy yard,
arsenal, forts and barracks having been
transformed into an admirable camp which
has been christened Camp Dewey.
Manila is in a state of excitement Dor
dering on panic Thousands of foreigners
anticipating bombardment, have taken
refuge on the neutral ships in the harbor
Meanwhile General Aguinaldo's wild levies
continue to attack the Spanish outposts in

ing able 70 prevent General Monet from eff

spanish Paper Urges Peace.

BARCELONA, July 4.-The Diario pub
fishes a remarkable article strongly urging
peace between Spain and the United States
during the course of which ii says: 1.-The
Americans are winning by strength of will
spends to the national feeling of all Ameri-
cans, Spain was forced into the war by
party politics." Then the article after de-
claring the Americans were the aggressors
and that Spain was bound to defend her
national honor, says: Our honor being
satisfied, nothing compels us to continue
such an unequal combat. We cannot COM
pei these who have gone to the war to de-
fend our honor to fight to the death. Those
who are directing the struggle ought to put
an end to the duel when it is materially
impossible for one of the combatants to con-
tinue it."

THE SURF CITY swAMpED.
Out of Sixty Passengers Probably
Twenty Were Drowned.

Twenty Were Drowned.
BEVERLY Mass, July 4-The small ex-
cursion steamer Surf City, with about sixty
passengers on board, while half way over
from Salem Willows to her wharf here, a
distance of about two miles, was struck by
a terrific squall about 6 o'clock and cap
sized. OF those on board a large majority
is believed to have been rescued by boats
from both the Salem and Beverly shores,
but no less than six bodies had been recov-
cred at dark, and as it is known that many
rushed into the cabin before the squat, it
is thought that twice as many bodies are
still confined there. AS one or two of those
taken ashore are in a critical condition, it
appears likely that the list of dead may
reach a score. The following bodies were
recovered from the wreck:
Mrs. CATH ERNIE D. WEBER, twenty
five years old, of Beverly.
Miss GRACE SMELL, thirteen years old,
daughter of Arthur Smell, of Beverly.
Son of JOHN KENNEY, aged three. of
TWO UNIDENTIFIED WOMEN.
ONE UNIDENTIFIED BOY, aged six.
OF those rescued Miss Bertha Livett, of
North Beverly; Hazel Hersey, one year old,
OF Beverly Miss Emerson, OF Danvers, and
an unknown two-year-old girl are still in a
critical condition. Otto Carts, the fireman,
was badly scalded. The vessel had just
reached Beverly bar when the storm struck
the boat and al the same time lightning
bolt struck the beacon at the end of the
bar The boat sank in about fifteen feet
of water. The steamer was seen to go
down by persons on both sides of the bay
and boats Immediately put out to the
wreck, reaching her in a few minutes.
Those in the water were quickly hauled
aboard, and with the living were drawn
the bodies of two children. over half Of
those on board were women.

The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1898-06-09

It is stated, on excellent authority,
that Prof. McCleary will, Immediate
ly after his denomination to Congress
on June 18th, purchase a tract of land
in the Second district, merely for the
purpose of controverting the state
ment that he is representing district
in congress in which he has no prop
erty interests. The Professor, in this,
is opposed to the English system, of q
man residing in one district, and rep
reserting another district in which he
has no property. The act will deserve
commentator, even at this late date.

in two years ago to bring about the
defeat of Mr.. McCleary. He seems to
have forgotten the article that was

Mankato man in opposition to Mr.. Nc
Cleary, and pulled out at the last mo-
ment by the lily-livered would be
candidate. The music of the dollars
has since been heard, and Lemuel
dances to the jingle.

VAN SAINT WILL WIN.

The Minneapolis Times is one of
the strongest anti-VanSant papers
published in the State. 1t correspond
ingly favors the nomination of VIM.
Il. Eustis by the Republicans for gov
ernor. The Times is silver-democratic,
and its, interference in Republican
politics preliminary to the convention,
seems to SAVIOR somewhat of desire
to have the Republicans put up the
weakest man.
But during the early portion of last
week The Times came as near admit
ting that VanSant would receive the
Republican nomination as it would be
possible for an anti paper to do. The
Times, with its usual enterprise, made
complete canvass of the State as to
the preferences of the Republicans for
governor, and in making up its totals
gave VanSant pol, Collins 229, Eustis
2O6, and 446 doubtful. In the conven-
ton it will be necessary to have 500
votes in order to secure a nomination.
In sizing up the canvass made by The
Times the Duluth Herald has the fol-
lowing:
Times has given Mr.. Eustis more votes than
he can justly claim at the present time In
fact, his candidacy depends altogether upon
the result in Hennepin county. If he does
not get the delegation from his own county,
he will not be in the race at all, and some OF
the shrewdest politicians in Minneapolis
assert positively that Mr.. Eustis cannot
carry the county and that the delegates will
be instructed for Capt. VanSant. If this be
correct, The Times table should give Van
SAINT 4O3 votes on the first ballot. This
would, in all likelihood, result in his nominal
counties in The Times doubtful list which
are almost certain to be for VanSant, and
the natural CONCLUSION is that if Captain
VanSant captures the Hennepin county del
egation, he will be nominated on the first
ballot. There is little comfort in The Times
canvass for either Collins or Eustis, although
The Times favors the latter's nomination,
and has made as good showing for him as
the canvass would permit
In this list The Times gives prac-
tically all of the Sixth district to Col
Inns. It is certain that VanSant will
get number of the counties of that
district. In the Second district Nicol-
let county is placed in the doubtful
column. VanSant is certain to get
that county. In the First district the
Times places Steele and Dodge in the
doubtful list. VanSant is certain to
have the solid delegations of both OF
those counties.
But taking The Times at it's own
figures it is plain to be seen that MIR.
Eustis cannot be nominated, and that
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1898-06-09

VanSant has by far the best chance.
And when the counties certain for
VanSant, and yet placed in the doubt
full list by the Times, are placed in the
VanSant column, it will be seen that
the Winona gentleman is sure to win
out in the convention that will be held
on June Both next.
