The Spanish prisoners, about 400 in
number, including 81 Spanish officers,
reached Portsmouth, N. H., last Sun
day morning. Admiral Cervera and
Captain Eulate, who was commander
sf the Vizcaya, were among the OIL
GERS. Admiral Cervera had been ill
for the past three days, but felt better
during the day, and was interviewed.
he speaks good English: ''How do l
like America? 1 answer you that l
have always liked, and l may say,
loved your people, but this war has
been. duty with me and the men un-
der me. I knew that the American
feet clearly outclassed us, but it was
question Of fighting either inside OF
outside the harbor. I have many
friends in America, and have only the
kindliest feelings for them, but every
man has duty to perform to his
country and all Spaniards tried to
perform that duty. There has been
much feeling in Spain and l want all
Spain to know the truth, that every
ship Of my squadron fought until the
last, and when we could do no more.
We surrendered. I have much inter-
est to know the exact situation in
Spain. Capt. Goodrich mas treated us
as we'll as anyone could possibly be
treated. Ny officers have occupied
quarters in the saloon and we cannot
complain" Admiral Cervera will not.
however, remain at Portsmouth long.
Az soon as the enlisted men are land
ed in the quarters prepared for them.
he, with the officers Of his squadron,
except the surgeons, who will be left
with the men, will be sent to Annapo-
fis TO be confined within the limits Of
the Naval Academy Reservation. The
bringing Of Admiral Cervera to the
United States does not signify that
tho proposition to parole him has been
fnally dismissed. It has simply been
postponed for time. Itis very prob
able that he will be more comfortable
here until the feeling Of unnatural re-
sentiment displayed against him in
Spain has subsided. Ninety-one Of
the prisoners were sick, but it was
found that most Of the sickness was
due to wounds. There is no evidence
Of yellow fever or other contagious
diseases.

stimulants to native energy.
As ii had become obvious that, as was
only natural and polite. the railway
would be entirely a Russian enterprise,
foreigners ceased to apply, and plan
after plan was submitted by Russian
projectors until sufficient information
had been obtained to warrant the APP
pointment of a special commission. on
whose recommendation the European
lines were, in 1873, extended across the
Trails to Ekaterinburg, and four years
later to Tiumen, which was at first in
tended TO be the departure point of the
route to the Pacific. Further surveys
were then made, and the outcome was
the railway now being built, which was
estimated TO cost $50, 600. 900 rubles, and
will almost certainly cost more.
Throughout its length it keeps well
TO the south, that for military reasons IL
may skirt the frontier, and for CONNER
cial purposes it may run through the
richest country and cross the chief riv-
ers as near their sources as they are
n~avigable. The main line from st. Pet
ersburg runs through Moscow to RiaZan
and thence EDWARDS, crossing the Volga
at Samara and the Bielaya at Ufa. to
Mass and down to C~heliabinsk, where
the Great Siberian begins. When the
enltIpitSc was ullucI liid COnclutl dllOh
the choice had to be made between
three routes, but as all the three would
inevitably meet near Mini Uuinsk, the
shortest-that through Mass. and not
that through T~iumen-was determined

The new line thus crosses the Tobol at
Kurgan, the Ishim at ~Petropavlosk and
