would be inevitable in the Atlantic
10 case the clash comes. From what.
ever point Of view considered the pol
icy OF more fighting on the part Of
Spain promises nothing but more
Spanish misfortune, Navy officers
think this view must prevail at the
Spanish government aud believes at
end Of the var, Upon the basis Of
Cuban independence, is TO follow soon,
aud that too, without further notable
opportunity for the American navy
tU prove its power and distinguish
itself.
One result Of Admiral Dewey's vic.
tory, IL Ia thought, may be action on
the part OF the powers Of Europe to
induce Spain TO abandon what is re-.
garded as a hopeless contest for her.
Representations may be made to
Spain that she would better relinQulsb
her hold upon Cuba than to risk losing
all OF her West Indian possessions and
the Philippines as well. 1t is believed
to be not unlikely that the represent
atoms milliudicate that since Spanish
honor has been satisfied By q coufict,
Spain can now yield to the inevitable
and .ccept the good offices Of the
powers to bring about an adjustment.

The passengers on the Rock Island
train to Caldwell Saturday night were
considerably frightened when the
train ran into the thickest part of
the storm between Perth and Corbil.
The wind blew the window glass out Of
the coaches and almost created a
panic among the passengers. The
train rocked as II 1t would be blown
from the track. 1t was necessary for
the engineer to stop the train until
the storm blew over.

THE STORM.
South Kansas and Oklahoma Visited
by Wind and Rain.

One of the heaviest rain storms
that has visited Southern Kansas for
years fell Saturday night and Sunday.
The rain was accompanied by ccnsid.
erble wind and great deal OF light
ming. No damage was done in Wei.
lington or the immediate vicinity.
The rainfall here measured inches.
1t was equally heavy 10 all parts of
Southern Kansas and In Oklahoma.
10 many places large wheat fields are
under water and all small streams are
overlooking the bottom lands. The
Cowskin 10 many places Is a mile
wide. The fast mail train from the
north Sunday was delayed several
hours on account Of a washOut near
Mulvane. All OF the trains we're de.
layed more or less by the storm.
The wind did considerable damage
at Clearwater, near Conway Springs.
Several buildings were blown away
aud the pOstoffice was lifted into the
middle OF the street. A cyclone is
reported at Duncan, 1T. Several re.
frlgerator cars we're hurled from the
Rock Island track and a brakeman
Injured. W. D. Frantz, who came up
from Enid Monday, reports JEFF
fersOn under water. The Salt Fork is
away out Of its banks. The family OF
Geo. Brewer, fOrmerly.of this city,
have sought refuge in box car. The
railroad tracks are weakened by the
high water.
At Hayesville the water from the
COSskin is up to the foundation Of
many OF the houses and families are
moving to higher ground. Thousands
of acres of wheat along this stream
are submerged and the water was still
rising Sunday night.
In many places damaging washouts
have occurred, The water seemingly
came down In torrents and small
draws quickly overtlowed and made
running streams through wheat and
corn fields.
1t would be hard matter to esti.
mate the damage done to crops by
Saturday nights storm. No rain in
recent years has done so much damage
by OVERLOOKING small streams and sub.
merging bottom lands.

The following official dispatch was
received by the Spanish minister of
war at Madrid from the governor gen.
eral of the Philippines, as to the en-
gagement off Manila:
Last night, April Both, the
batteries at the entrance to the fort
announced the arrival of the enemy
forcing passage under the obscurity
OF night. At daybreak the enemy
took up positions opening with a
strong fire against Fort Cavete and
arsenal Our feet engaged the enemy
In brilliant combat, protected by
Cavete and Manila forts. They OBJ
liged the enemy with heavy loss III
maneuver repeatedly. At 8 O'Clock
the Americans took refuge behind
foreign merchant shipping on the east
side OF TIE bay. Our feet considering
the enemy's superiority, naturally
suffered severe loss. Maria ChriStiana
is on fire and another ship, believed rC
be the Don Juan De Austria, was
blown up and sank in the bay, There
was considerable loss Of life. Captair
Cadarzo, commanding Maria Chria.
tiana, is among the killed. l canuot
now give further details. Spirit OF
the army, navy and volunteers is ex-
cellent."
Additional war bulletins dated at
Madrid read:
Madrid, May 1.-The Don Juan D,
Austria was severely damaged ard
her commander was killed. Another
Spanish vessel was burned. The
