NOT INFORMED OFFICIALLY.

Washington. April 29.-The shelling OF
the Matanzas batteries was the topic of
absorbing interest in naval and official
circles yesterday. IL was discussed on
the basis OF the press reports from Key
West as the navy department received
no information whatever on the subject.
Secretary Long said as he closed up his
Office work for the day that no report
had been received from Admiral Samp
son, nor was the department advised in
any way of the shelling OF Matanzas.
Mr.. Long added that he felt no disposi-
tion to keep from the public any news
concerning such an important event as
a naval engagement, or battle. While
IT was essential elat strategic moves
should be guarded with the greatest
care. yet he recognized that, as TO battles
and their casualties. the public was en-
titled to know what had occurred.
In the absence of official information
the secretary was inclined to believe
that the shelling was confined to the
exchange OF fewishots and did not as
sumo the proportions OF a regular bonn
bardment. When his attention was di-
rected to reports that the shelling was
the result OF direct orders from the
president, MIR. Long said that this was
not so. as the president was giving no
direct orders on any Of these movements.

THE NORTHEAST GALE.

Boston. April ga week or more of
cold. rainy. disagreeable weather cul-
minated yesterday in strong north
east gale accompanied by a heavy rain
along the entire coast of New England.
The blow was severe off the southern
coast, the wind attaining velocity Of
nearly 30 miles an hour at Nantuche ct
and Block island. As the storm was
anticipated for some days, but little ship
ping was Off the coast. and with the ex-
ception Of the wreck of a small schooner
inside Cape Cod bay and the little steam

were reported.
The storm found the cruiser Columbia

ATTACK ON MATANzAs.
Was Undertaken to Stop Work on Ne,

Was Undertaken to Stop Work on New
Batteries at the Entrance.
or Havana, April 29.--The lombard
matter OF history. The flagship has
returned to her station off El Morro. As
briefly stated In these dispatches, the
bombardment accomplished it's purpose
in full, and that without any loss of life
Oh the American side. 1t is believed
that the Spaniards must have sustained
some loss of life. in addition to having
their nearly completed earthworks and
Notifications torn up by the explosion
of shells. The capture of the city was
not at all contemplated, the object being
TO stop the erection Of the batteries.
This engagement. the first In which
the United States navy has participated
for about 30 years, occurred quite un-
expectedly. The New York was lying
about 20 miles east of Havana when
Admiral Sampson decided to steam to
Matanzas. When about three miles from
Putna Corda. the extreme point OF the
eastern arm of the harbor. a long yellow
streak was seen In shore. 1t looked
like newly erected battery work.
Closer inspection revealed a number of
men clustered around the shore. Still
the New York steamed slowly ahead
until 1t was ascertained without any
doubt that the Spanish troops were busy
I'm erecting what seemed to be sand
battery and had already gotten several
guns into position. Rear Admiral Samp-
son decided that this was detrimental to
a pacific blockade.
Every man was at his post as calm
and collected as II II was only practice
drill. The gunners had been getting the
range. and every gun on the port side
was trained on low-lying embankment
OH the west side of the bay. Cade.
Boone was In charge OF the port gun
amidships. The command had scarcely
been given when the report OF his gun
rang out. Il was the first gun fired in
an actual contest with the enemy. This
was only the beginning. Like o thing OF
life, the flagship semed to Jump forward
until she got almost In a direct line be-
tween the two batteries. Then she
swung around, broadsides on, and all
the terrors OF her armament were let
loose. From broadsides and turret her
guns spoke In continuous roar. and
every soul on board felt thrilled with the
strange exhilaration which men feel
when engaged in glorious, but. deadly
fray. l
After the battle and we had time TO
take better view Of cur surroundings
we could see that hundreds OF people
were assembled os the hills behind Ma
tanzas. Most Of them were doubtless
half-starved reconcentrados. and un-
doubtedly they were filed with JOY as
they watched the work Of the American
warships and noted their magnificent
triumph over the Spanish fortincations.

CAPTURE OF THE GUIDO.

Key West, April 29.--Aside from the
news of the Matanzas bombardment,
which set the town wild with joy. the
event OF yesterday, practically marking
the end Of the first week of the war. was
the arrival of a big prize, the Guido.
She was captured by the Terror and the
Machias 10 miles off Cardenas at
o'clock Wednesday morning. but not un-
I'll after stern chase. Five shots were
fired. four by the monitor and one by the
gunboat. though the shot from the Ma
chias did not take effect. Two of the
Terrors shots went through the pilot
house, and one struck a long boat and
the upper works.
Manuel Rivar, a sailor. was In the
pilot house OF the Guido. and the flying
splinters penetrated his breast. infiicting
wounds which may cause death. He
was brought ashore and taken to the
hospital. Captain Kichiando received a
flesh wound in the wrist from a splinter
when the shot went through the pilot
house.
The Guido was bound from Corunna
to Havana with cargo OF provisions
and money, thought To be for the Span
ish troops. The Terror first sighted her
and began the pursuit by sending blank
shot across her bows. The Spaniards
promptly put out all her lights and
started In a desperate attempt TO run
away. The monitor then brought her
six-pounders into play and sent three
more shots directly at her. all finding the
mark. She also trained her big 12-inch
guns on the Guido, prepared to sink her

Meanwhile the Mach,ns had come up
and sent shot from four-inch rifle
at the fugitive. Captain Kichiando.

enemies to combat. surrendered.

and enlargement of the right hip, caused
by the unnatural position, and many med
ical men forbid women to ride except on
the cross saddle.
The saddle generally used by ladies is
the Somerset, so called because IL was in
vented for one Of 0e Somersetfamily who
had lost leg below the knee. 1t is pad
ded before the knee and behind the thigh,
to fit the scat of the rider, and II provided
with a stuffed seat Of buokskin will give
all the comfort and confidence Of an arm
chair. The front roll of stufling affords q
fulcrum against puller and a protection
against a kicker. A great advantage this
saddle has over the sidesaddle Is that
with heel each side to guide the horse
and tho weight equally distributed the
rider also sits much lower, so that she be-
comes, as it were, one with the horse, in
stead of being percbed on top of him.
The divided skirt SO closely resembles
the common habit that not one person in
go notices the rider Is astride, except when
seen directly from the front or rear, while
no unprejudiced beholder could hesitate
for moment as to which was the more
modest and becoming position who had
ever seen stout woman try both saddles.

Washington April 29.--Of1cials at the
smile and discredit to the frequent sug-
gestions that come through the news
papers OF q wholesale bombardment OF
the Cuban coast by Admiral Sampson.
The apparent lack OF sufficient purpose
and very poor strategy involved In such
action are said to be sufficient to dismiss
at once such stories as mere figments OF
imagination.
Indeed, 1t can be stated on as good au-
thorlty as can be obtained in such a
time as this that there is no intention on
the part OF the government to lombard
any Cuban ports at present, II at all. and
certainly such a move will not be made
until the fleet is reinforced by the trans
ports carrying troops enough to hold any
advantageous positions ashore that 1t
might win.
The war department has chartered
eight large steamers of an average ca
pacity of 1000 tons and able to carry
from 500 to 1900 passengers each. These
are to be used for the conveyance of the
first military expedition to Cuba. The
price paid is from SO 900 TO SIS. 900 for the
80 days for which they are to be engaged.
They will be taken charge of be the quar-
termasters department at the earliest
possible moment
General Shafter, In command Of the
United States troops now concentrated
at New Orleans, has been In consultation
with the officials as TO the execution OF
plans OF the campaign, but the orders
given him cannot be made public.
No information of the grounding of
one OF our warships. which Blanco re-
ports. has been received either by the
president or the secretary OF the navy.
An examination OF the best Cuban map
OF the war department fails to show any
point on the coast called Dimas. the
nearest approach to ii being Point
Diamente on the northern coast OF Pinar
Del Rio province. short distance west
of Havana and in the blockaded zone.
News from Admiral Dewey and the
Pacific squadron is not expected before
Saturday.

TO FIGHT FOR CUBA.

Key West. April Pa big expedition
of independent Cubans will leave here
for the eastern part Of Cuba 1t is COM
posed of men who have been anxious to
reach Garcia's army with the hope that
they will be In at the windup Of the east
ern cities. They are thoroughly organ
lied, equipped and drilled for service in
the field. They will take with them
arms and ammunition. and will land
where they can connect at once with
General Garcia or General Menocal.
1t is not filibustering expedition.
The Cubans in it desired to enlistin the
United States army. but decided 1t was
better to go In first. They will be -
lowed by other parties, and will in reality
be the vanguard OF toe Cubans return
ing to fight under Gomez. Garcia and

pedition, which will be sanctioned by the

Orders for the Recruiting OF Four Regi-
mepts Issued by the Governor.
Boston, April 29.--1n response to the
written request from the secretary OF
war for troops. Governor wolcott has
issued the necessary orders for the ro-
cruiting OF four regiments of volunteers
and designated four colonels now I'm the
militia as their commanding officers.
The officers chosen are. Colonel Clark
of the Second. Colonel Began OF tho
Ninth. Colonel Pew OF the Eighth and
Colonel woodward OF the Sixth. The
field, stan and line officers OF three OF the
regiments met last night. and every man
offered his services to the government.
The heavy batteries called for by the
government will be filled from the First
regiment. heavy artillery, and an effort
is to be made TO have the general gov
ernment taAe the entire IL batteries of
that command into its services. If the
First heavies are taken. only the Fifth
regiment, the light batteries, the cav
airy troops and the two corps OF cadets
will remain without assignments, and
the members OF these organizations will
be asked to volunteer in the new COM
mands.
Lieutenant e. M. Weaver. who has
been detailed by the war department &c
muster the state troops into the national
service, was ordered to muster his
men In Springfield. but Ii Is thought that
the wishes of the state In this respect
will be agreed to by the war department
and the troops modified at South Franz
ingham.
Another board of military men has
bsen formed. IL is named the ordnance
board and is to take up the subject OF
coast defense. The board will consist
of Lieutenant Colonel Thomas r. Ed
mands, Captain Andrew Robeson. Cap
tain George III. Thompson, Captain Hugh
Bancroft and Lieutenant Henry N.
Sweet.
The eagerness Of the militia to volun-
teer fills the four regiments and three
heavy batteries called for by the govern
ment from the present active force. This
will be disappointing to the organizations
and associations that have recently been
active in recruiting for a possible con-
tingency. and will probably discourage
further work in that line.
