MANILA EXPEDITION DELAYED.
Cruiser CharIesto. Returns to Mare
Island With Her Condenser
Ont NJ Asda.

Cfu1Sef CnefleStO1 Returns to Mare
Island With Her Condenser
Out of Order.
VALLEJO. CAL. May 19.-The cruiser
Charleston, which sailed yesterday for Ma
nila. with ammunition and supplies for
Admiral Dewey. is back at her berth at
Mare Island navy yard with her condensers
out Of order. The cruiser steamed about
the bay all day yesterday. outside Of San
Francisco, while her compasses were being
adjusted and cargo trimmed. When every
thing was In readiness for q start on the
long voyage the condensers were found to
be out of order. The accident was trivial,
But Captain Glass concluded that 1t would
be better to return to the navy yard and
secure the benefit Of the facilities there,
than to repair the damage at sea. The
Charleston will make another start within
the next two days.
The accident to the Charleston Is not re-
garded here as serious, and it is thought
that within forty-eight hours she will be
far out on the Pacific on her way to Ma
Mia. When the ship left the navy yard
yesterday everything went we'll until the
bay was reached. Then 1t was that the
condenser tubes began to leak slightly.
They were repaired. but soon commenced
to leak again. While the damage could
have been repaired at sea or when the ship
reached Honolulu. Captain Glass thought
it best not to risk leakage to the boilers.
and consequently returned to the navy
yard, where the facilities for quick repairs
are more complete than at Honolulu. The
cause Of the trouble is attributed to the
work Of the navy mechanics. There was no
opportunity to test the condensers before
the ship left the yard. and it was only
when the vessel was being forced through
the water at full speed that the defect was
made manifest. Captain Glass is authority
for the statement that the accident, while
annoying, is not serious. and that repairs
can be made in q few hours.

The American fleets have three duties to
perform. They must maintain the block

ports and crush the enemy. That Is not
SO easy as the stick-whittling strategists
may think. :
The American Atlantic squadron has only

leans might give the enemy a stern chase.
but the objection to forming q new flying
squadron with these fast ships is the
fact that in guns and armor they are not
an equal match for the Ispaniard.
These are some, of the difficulties forcing

Imaginative Correspondents.

The war correspondent has "A very
lively imagination. Here is Il telegraphic
report of Il battle scene:
With his plucky little band thus rein
forced, General Castillo quickly turned
against the enemy again. The fight be-
am more vigorous than at any time
during the skirmiSh. The Spaniards
fought desperately to hold The advantage
they had Just gained, but the attempt
was complete failure. Slowly and sui
lenly the enemy was again forced to re-
treat. and finally they were put to flight.
The next paragraph is as follows:
Information brought later in the day
showed the ~Spaniards had at least four
men killed. This fight, as observed
from the hills two miles to the rear. was
most picturesque.
AT least fOur men killed" In the
early days of the Comstock a saloon row

The Second Volunteers,

Colonel Torrey in Cheyenne made the
following address to the men of the
ranks comprising the Second Volunteers:

clash Of arms, but in the preparation of

predicted that you make a brilliant ZEN

have a splendid effect upon the men Of
his command.

Judge BeIknap's Poll Tax

A few days ago the APPEAL denied the
statement made by the Report that
Judge Belknap had not paid his poll tax,
The APPEAL finds however that it was
mistaken. Judge Belknap did not pay
his poll tax last year, and for tina reason
he took no part in the decision in the

rule to include the poll tax, but in this
instance the Deputy Assessor, by an

Judge had no knowledge of the state of

found that he had no poll tax receipt he
declined to take any part in the poll tax
case as he was clearly an interested
