there has been serious engagement
is the fact that it was yesterday in
correspondence with Schley by cable.
1t is believed that the Commodore ac-
knowledged receipt Of suggestions from
the Department anad the War Board
that he refrain from an unsupported at
tack upon the Notifications and Spanish
fleet, if to do so would involve risk of
ships anad life, that would scarcely be
necessary. The fact however, that the
American Commodore undertook to re-
frain from an attack voluntarily is not
convincing proof that he did not shell
the forts and the Spanish fleet, if, as
entirely possible, and even probable, the
latter attempted to escape from the
harbor.
There is also reason for accepting the
statement that heavy fighting of some
character has taken place at Santiago
from the fact that the advices to that
effect came from Spanish sources from
Santiago through the cable to Hayti.
1t is inconceivable to the officials that
the Spanish authorities would permit
dispatches of that character which re-
flected no credit on Spanish men to
leave Santiago unless there was some
real basis of fact, and Intentionally to
minimize very serious disaster to the
Spanish.

No Official Advices of Engagement

WASHINGTON, June 1.-The Navy
Department had not heard from Com
modore Schley up to noon to-day con-

but nothing beyond the regular morn

noon. The press reports saying the tor
pedo boat Porter put into Mole St
Nicolas early this morning lent to the
belief that official dispatches are on the
way here. 1t was said, however, that
the delays incident to cipher cabling
might delay the receipt of such dis
patches.
The officials stated that some of the
statements in the account of the ac-
tom We're inaccurate. They would not
say what the inaccuracies We're, but il
is probable that some of the ships said

not have been at Santiago The de-

officials are always able to tell where

A BLoCK-HoUsE WRECKED.
Laid Low by Shells From the u. S.
Auxiliary Cruiser Uncas.

KEY WEST, June 1.-The United
States auxiliary gunboat Uncas arrived
here this morning from the Cuban
coast. She reports that on Monday
last, when about mile and half from
Matanzas lighthouse, she sighted a
Spanish blockhouse on shore. Taking
up a position about 600 yards off shore,
the Uncas fired two shots at the house,
and that two shells went clear through
the building, which was wrecked.
During the firing the auxiliary gun
boat Leyden came up and also fired a
couple of shots. 1t is not known
whether any Spaniards were killed, but
they probably fled at the first shot The
blockhouse made no reply.
The action on the part of the Uncas
and Leyden is in accordance with the
policy of the patrol boats in shelling
any blockhouse they may come across.
The crews enjoy this target practice
very much.

by the Volunteer Army Act. Regiment

pleted arrangements for the recruiting
of 1900 additional troops nder the
second call for volunteers. 1t has been
decided, however, to withhold the ap-
portionment of the different States and
Territories from publication for the
lpresent, for the reason that such pub
lication at this time would tend to en-
barrass and delay the officials of the
department in the organization of the
new regiments.
According to the plans already formu-
lated, $1,000 troops will be required to
recruit the regiments of the existing
organizations up to their maximum
strength, leaving only $4,000 troops to
be mustered in for the organization of
! entirely new regiments.

have already furnished troops under the

der both calls, and Adjutant- General

that none of them will at this time be
| called upon to furnish any additional

the following named States are included
in the list: Delaware, Vermont, North
Dakota, South Dakota, Montana Ida

communications to the War Depart
ment have manifested decided oppo-
sition to filling up the existing regi-
ments, preferring to recruit entirely
new organizations. and in some cases it

yield, although no one will make any
official statement to that effect There
is disposition ON the part of the War
Department to avoid any unseemly
wrangle over the matter, but instead
to yield point for the sake of appear
ances. Ample authority, it is aid, ex-

Laughing cheerfulness throws sun

TO MAKE VICTORY CERTAIN.

The result Of the election is with the Re-
publican and sound-money voters. They
constitute majority of the voting popula-
ton of Indiana. Those who disbelieve in
16 to are more numerous to-day than they
were two years ago. If they go to the
polls Indiana will stand with the sound
money States by a decided majority. If
they give the heresy a quietus on Tuesday
it will be the end of it.
All Republicans and many other patriotic
citizens who have not acted with the Re-
publican party cordially indorse the course
of the President in regard to the war with
Spain. They believe that he has proved
himself a wise and patriotic President and
that the interests and the honor of the
Republic are safe in his hands. So much
admitted, will they fail to sustain him by
voting for members of Congress who will
support him rather than embarrass? Can
it be that any such voters have not suf-
ficient interest to go to the polls to indorse
what they believe?
Such being the issues in the election, let
no man who believes in sound money and
in the wisdom and craftsmanship of Will
liam Mckinley fail to go to the polls. Let
no man be so false to his better manhood
as to neglect to vote the ticket because
a few things have been done which he does
not approve, or because he feels that he
has not been recognized. If, during any
great crisis like the war for the Union.
men who were not satisfied with all things
had refused to support Abraham Lincoln,
the Union cause would have been lost. Not
since the war has the wisdom of Repub-
lican policies been more completely vin6'
Gated than it has during the past lour
years.
Keep after the enemy from now until the
polls close. Be not content with voting
yourself, but make it a duty to induce
others to vote as you will vote. If those
who read the Journal will do all they can
to bring out full vote victory is assured.

Logansport Republicans are enjoying a
laugh at the expense of Prof. Michael the
Democratic candidate for Congress in that
district, who has lost his vote by changing
his residence from one township to another
within the sixty days limit. They are also
having a good deal of fun over q campaign
supplement which he is circulating, con-
tanning his own picture, and one of a resi-
dence which he formerly owned but recent
ly sold and a speech which he seems to
consider his masterpiece. The speech is de-
voted largely to advocacy of free silver and
to telling how the country is being ruled
and ruined by the money power. 1t con-
cludes as follows:
In conclusion, friends, I will say that God
has given us all brain. ] will call it a
great temple of knowledge; the whole world
knows none more grand and sublime than
this one. 1t is as broad as the earth, deep
down as the granite ages; it colonies the
massive formulas Of the mathematical and
deductive knowledges: marked with a line
of a world measuring geometry; decked
with heavens caulding astronomy, stretch
ing over ALA lifting dome. over every
pillar and every form of learning literature

with fresh beauty the solid truth, working
into many a thousand grand or graceful

craftsmanship and law. Through the center
of this great temple, eloquence and phil
and the lofty choir tunes its subtle science
of melody, and time and geology builds its
altar of the unhewn stones of a divine reve-
lation. All things are possible to minds
trained and true The metaphysics point
their topmost spires for which they for
ever seek but never reach. An ordinary
mind embracing truth pushed steadily on
through months and years of enduring
efforts, will accomplish more for good than
the mind of many talents deceptive in
thought. We need honest brain in Con-
gress We need persevering brain in Con-
gress l ask you earnestly to consider
carefully before voting. because, just in
proportion to your sending men to Congress
possessing the true manhood so will you be
blessed by the. laws they make. can but
promise you, If l am elected, to give you
my service to the best of my ability.
The biographical sketch of Prof. Michael.
printed in the supplement, says: "He is
most fervid orator. The foregoing ex-
tract from his printed speech proves that
beyond a doubt. To send such a man to
Congress in place of Hon. George w.
Steele would be conclusive proof that the
people are unfit for self-government.
