whether there was going to be mu-

Lord Adolphus laughed, but replied
that he really did not know what would

fering for the Want of Food-FIour
Worth Fifty Cents a Pound.

KEY WEST, Fla, June 21.-A vessel
arrived here from the blockade Mon
day morning and reported all quiet
along the line. She brought an officer
of the Cuban army and a pilot, who
are carrying important dispatches to
Senior Estrada Palma, of the Cuban
junta. from Gen. Alexandra Rodriguez,
the insurgent commander of Havana
province.
The Cubans were taken on board on
Saturday last from an auxiliary gum
boat which had picked them up. The
messengers of Gen. Rodriguez gave
very interesting account of their ex-
periences. After leaving the insur
gent camp they made their way into
the city of Havana. spent several days
there, proceeded to one of the small
inlets in the neighborhood, stole
small boat and rowed out to sea in the
hope of coming across an American
vessel. They were three days in the
boat before they were picked up.
The Cubans report that there are no
supplies of rice, maize, potatoes or
eggs in Havana. Flour, they say, is
so cents per pound and the army has
been placed on half rations.
The messengers class as false that
vessels have succeeded in entering
Havana harbor with supplies. They
assert that since the blockade began
only three small fishing vessels have
entered the harbor and that no food
whatever is received from Cienfuegos
The Cubans confirm the reports that
work on the defences of Havana is
proceeding steadily. Two lines of tor
pedoes extend across the mouth of the
harbor, which is said to be further
protected by two Automobile torpedoes,
one at each side, dischargable by press
ing a button.
The only war vessels in the harbor
of Havana are sm all gunboats and the

An auxiliary gunboat off Cardenas
has been visited by a Cuban officer
from the shore who reported that
place to be effectively besieged by the
insurgents on land and by the war
ships in front He made the statement
that in two weeks time the whole pop

Lieut.. Z. B. Christian returned from
Durham yesterday. He only secured

First Regiment. He wants 140 men.
Lieut.. Christian is discouraged over the
outlook for recruits, and is seriously

drained of men, having furnished at
least 125 men for the two regiments.

claimed he was 10 years old, and refused
to be mustered in. When he enlisted
here he swore to his age as being 80

people in Jacksonville that he got a
free ride to Florida at the government
expense. He was given transportation
back to Durham and will arrive there
tonight. Lieut.. Christian received a
