GLOOM IN HAVANA.
Residents Move About without AMI
nation and Await the End.

Key West, Fla. June 22.-Havana is
now very quiet and lacks the gay appear
ance of some weeks ago. The residents
move about slowly. and their faces lack
animation and life. They now seem to
realize that the end is near.
Strict blockade maintained by our naval
vessels is evidently responsible for this
state of affairs and is producing the desir-
ed effect, slowly. perhaps, but none the
less surely.
Opportunities have recently occurred
for making observations inside the harbor
from near the entrance, and all observ-
ers agree that the city appears sad and
gloomy.
The gunboat Maple carried Capt. Lud-
low. of the Terror, in to try to effect
an exchange of Hobson and his men, but
he was told by the captain general that
1t would be necessary to refer the matter
to the Madrid government before 1t could
be arranged. and at least two days would
expire before an answer could be receiv-
ed. Blanco did not state whether he was
able to communicate with Madrid by
cable
There is absolutely no truth in the re-
ports that some vessels have succeeded
in running the blockade and getting into
Havana. The line of enclosing vessels is
SD skillfully disposed that unless a balloon
or submarine craft can be utilized there
is no possible chance of success. In fact
the whole coast near Havana is effective
ly blockaded, and not even q small boat
can slip IN or out.

WEDNESDAY, JUNE %. 1885.
The First Landing.

Twelve miles east of Santiago's Morro
Castle General Calixto Garcia has his
field headquarters. There, on Monday,
General Shafter. Admiral Sampson, ac-
companied by Colonel John Jacob As
tor and a number of other staff officers
of less note, landed and held high
conference with the Cuban chief. 1t
was notable gathering. 1t represented
the Army, Navy, American wealth and
Cuban liberty. We are told that on an
eminence overlooking the sea and back
ed by splendid mountains, under royal
palms and amid gorgeous wild flowers,
the three chiefs sat upon cracker boxes
in the shade of a palm leaf hut One
of them had blueprint map unfolded
on his knees. Which one we know not
but the statement is so strong that it
must have been Sampson. In due
course the conference ended, and, as an
immediate result, We are told in to-
days dispatches that it will be sew
eral days before the troops can be
landed.
Much doubt appears to exist as to
where the proper place for that cere-
mony may be. Ii is said that the
Cubans think Guantanamo would be a
good point, but that would mean a
fifty-mile march over thicket-covered
mountains to reach the point of attach.
Probably Asseradero, the site of Car
cia's camp, may be selected, as it Of
fers good chance to occupy defensible
ground at once from which to cover the
movement. All that is certain is that
nothing will be done before the end of
the week, if then.
We printed information this morning
to the effect that the Government is in
doubt as to the effectiveness of the
sunken Merrimac as a cork to the San
tiago bottle. Reports from the front
represent Admiral Sampson as on the
qui vive for some surprise which Ger
vera is suspected of preparing.
All this portends the calm that pre-
long continued the ensuing disturbance
may possibly be of natural and not of
4 military character. The hurricane
season is about due off Cuban shores.
and If one should happen to strike the
fleet and transports twenty miles out at
sea, there might be Spanish victory of
no mean proportions.
Therefore let us hope that the pre-
liminary conferences, preparations, diff
ferences and delays may be gotten over
with all decent speed. and that the
Army, the Navy, Colonel Astor and the
Cubans will soon begin to transact the
business expected of them

THE CADIZ FLEET.
Reported Move ments of Admiral
Can.0ra's Ships.

=
New York. June 22--The Herald prints
the following from its European edition.
dated Cadiz, via Gibraltar, June 2l:
People are rejoicing over the departure
of the squadron. without troubling them
selves as to its destination.
The captain of a steamer that passed
Cartagena on Saturday declares he saw
two vessels. which he supposed were the
Giralda and the Pielago. leave the squad
ron and proceed for Cartagena, while
the rest of the squadron continued di-
rectly east, going very slowly at about
nine knots.
1t is said that military circles here
share the fears of the Madrid press of a
revolution. The Cadiz population, how
ever, is loyal in general. Nevertheless
every measure is being taken.
1t is feared that the crowd of young
military recruits are disaffected at being
taken from their homes. and may OBJ
ject to being deported to Cuba, were so
many of their countrymen have been
uselessly sacrificed.
Capt. Aunon. minister of marine. has
examined the Lepanto. and has expressed
himself satisfied.
Work is about to begin on the belated
squadron, which will demand the united
efforts of the press. public opinion and
the minister of marine to get ready.
The Meteoro, formerly the Havel of the
North German Lloyd line, will form part
of this third squadron.
The captain of a vessel that arrived at
Gibraltar last night reports that he sight
ed the squadron off Cape Gata. He be-
lieves the whole feet Is now at Carta-
gena. In any case, it cannot have pro-
ceeded far eastward, as it has not been
signaled anywhere.
The Vitoria left the arsenal at dawn
this morning to make trial.

Internal Machine in HI. Mail.

Mex York, June 22.-B. A. Rowland.
sales agent of a large meat concern in
Gansevoort Market, has placed in the
hands of Postoffice Inspector Ashe an
Internal machine. which he received in
his personal mail Monday morning. 1t
is a wooden box about nine by five by
three inches and weighing about six
pounds. 1t was posted in the general
postofiice Saturday afternoon and ad-
dressed in large hand printed characters.
Black gunpowder filled it, and a part of
the explosive was tightly packed in a
four ounce bottle. There was also a
handful of 1-inch screws wrapped in oil
ed rags. which would have scattered in
every direction had the contrivance ex-
ploded. Seven parlor matches were fast
ened in the box in such a position that
when the lid was drawn off strip of
sandpaper would be drawn across the
heads. Mr.. Rowland happened to no.
tice loose grains of powder on the outer
wrapper. however, and soaked 1t in wa
ter before he opened 1t. He says he
knows of no enemy. but as he has been
in his present position only two months,
and has obtained some large contracts,
his only theory is that the plot may have
been inspired by business rivalry

The Source of Inspiration.

1t is now evident that the anti-annex-
Alton silver Democrats of the Senate
have been sitting at the feet of CANA
liel Pecksniff Cleveland, and there have
received the inspiration of their Ha-
waiian speeches. 1t could not be other
wise, for we have the substance of their
arguments and contentious presented to
us today in the turgid language of that
departed individual.
AS he has no Congress on his hands
at present, the prophet, priest and king
of the eX-silver obstructionists puts in
his leisure time, when not engaged in
bending his elbow to bait his hook i'm
making speeches before audiences of
school children and their admiring
teachers and parents He delivered one
on Good Citizenship" at an academy
day, which, but for its Groveresque
rhetoric, might have been the work of
Hale, Hoar or White. Among other
characteristic things, the orator said:
Never before in our history have we been beset
with temptations so dangerous those which
whisper in ears alluring words OF con.
quest and expansion, and point out to us fields
bright with the glory Of war.
II these words. with their glowing
imagery were the product of any but
the Cleveland brain, 1t would occur to
us to remark that they represent dis
connected historical trolley. The same
Temptations assailed us when we ac-
quired Louisiana, Florida, California
and Texas. and II We had not fallen
into their frightful snare. today we
