is that referred to above. Another is that

right on with the same scheme. And

TO BE MAJ oR GENERAL,
Promotion Promised For Gen. Frank. a
Former Maine Man.

New York, June 3O.-A Washington de-
spatch to the Herald says:
Brigadier General Royal T. Frank, who
has been in command of the department
of the east, will belmade a major general
President Mckinley will nominate II
more major generals soon, OF whom Gen.
Frank will be one. The majority of
these nominations will be made from
officers in the regular army.
Gen. Frank reported at the war depart
inent today and was assigned to duty at
Chickamauga Park, to command divis.
ion of the Third Army Corps under Major
Geuerl Wade. 1t is his wish to see actual
duty in the field RS soon as possible.
For this reason he was relieved of his
command of the department. of the east.
For the third time since the beginning
Of the present war, Brigadier General
Royal L. Frank, as commander of the
department. of the east, has officially re-
buked volunteer courts martial for their
leniency.
In a special order issued from Cover.
nor's Island yesterday he used caustic
language in attaching his disapproval
TO the findings of the courts in TWO cases
in which members of the Second Penn.
sylvania volunteer infantry were found
guilty of sleeping on post. The trials
were held at Penns Grove, N. j., where
the Pennsylvanians are guarding powder
houses. Private Anthony Poppo of Co.
A, was sentenced to pay line OF 50 and
be confined at hard labor for five days.
Private Edward X. Sloannlaker of Co.
H, was fined one months pay and sent
enced to ten days confinement at hard
labor.

the court conducted the trials and deolar.

If anybody but Third Party Prohibi-
zionist had made the statements about the
working of the prohibitory law that were
made at the Waterville conference he
would probably have been roundly de-
nounced for trying to bring the law into
discredit.s The gentlemen who have
constituted themselves special cham
pions Of this law have always seemed to
assume that while it was perfectly
proper for them to tell the truth about its
failure to accomplish all that was expect
ed from it, for anyone else to do SO was
to give aid and comfort to the rum inter
est. By what kind Of logic they arrive at
the conclusion that public exposure of
the weakness and inefflciency of this law
By its special friends is likely to do
less harm than when made by peo.
pie who do not claim any special
affection for it, we are at loss to i'm
agine. To the ordinary mind it would
seem that the confessions of friends, such
as were made at Waterville, would be
likely to do more injury to the cause than
criticisms coming from persons COM

It is evident that ansattack on Santiago
is several days off at least, in spite of the
statements of correspondents, who have re.
presented that Gen. Shafter has
been just on the eve OF
ordering an assault for several days
past The heavy siege guns are not in
position, and until they are an attack is
not likely to be made, unless possibly it
should appear that strong reinforcements
were on the way to Santiago, when it
might be deemed wiser to attack imme-
dately, even without the siege guns than
to delay. So far the Spaniards have made
very little resistance to our advance, and
many officers are sanguine that their
fighting behind intrenchments will be
feeble. Gen. Garcia, however, who
knows the Spaniards as we'll as any
one can. believes that they will put up
pretty strong defense, though he has no
doubt that we shall succeed in capturing
the place when we set out to do so
