A LENGTHY WAR.
Skaters Expedition Destroys All Chances
Of an Early Peace.

Skaters Expedition Destroys All Chances
Of an Early Peace.
WASHINGTON, June ia leading
member of the diplomatic corps said
today that the departure OF Skaters
army OF invasion Into Cuba put an
end TO all present prospects Of peace.
While none Of the foreign representa-
tives had eyer made peace representa-
tions TO the government, yet peace
negotiations always seemed to the
members of the diplomatic fraternity
as within the bounds OF possibility,
and even probability, so long as the
troops remained at Tampa and Key
West. Now, however, with 1900
American soldiers about to take a
position on Spanish soil, it is said the
conditions heretofore opportune for
peace have undergone a material
change, as the United States is COM
mitted to an aggressive land cam
paign, aud it also makes it impossible
for Spain to adopt any other course
than that of defending her soil
against invasion.
The cabinet crisis In France may
exert an indirect influence on the
present war. Hanotaux, the minister
Of foreign affairs in the present French
cabinet, has been foremost in over
coming the anti-American spirit
shown by the people and the French
press. He has moreover, exercised
strong repressiye influence on Spain.
He was able to do this through his
PECULIARLY close and personal intimacy
with the Spanish ambassador at Pasis,
Senior Castillo, and through him to
haye a considerable part in shaping
the policy of the Spanish govern
ment.
The course Of Hanotaux has been
highly gratifying 70 the authorities
here. and they would be glad to see
him regain control of foreign affairs
in France. What is feared particularly
In Democratic circles is that Hano-
taux' withdrawal, along with that of
the Meline cabinet, will bring some
frey deputy to the head Of the foreign
office, thus giving free rein to the
popular ill-feeling against the United
States.

At Daylight the Work Was
Begun.
Dynamite Cruiser Vtsuvius Gets
in More Deadly Work,

KINGSTON, June 1.-THE fleet of
Rear Admiral Sampson bombarded
Santiago de Cuba, yesterday morning
for the third time. This time the
attack was successful. The Spanish
shore batteries were entirely destroyed
with great loss of life, The entire
American fleet aided In the work of
destruction and the dynamite cruiser
Vesuvius got in some more of its
deadly work.
Eor hours the ships pounded the
batteries at the right and left Of the
entrance, only sparing El Moro,
where Lieutenant Hobson and his
companions are in prison. The
western batteries, against which the
main assault was directed, were
badly wrecked. One was utterly
destroyed. In the other many guns
were dismounted.
At the first the Spaniards replied
passionately and wildly, but most Of
the guns were deserted, Not ship
was struck, nor man injured on the
American side, 1t is believed the
Spanish loss of life is very heavy.
AS preliminary to the hammer
ing given the batteries the dynamite
cruiser Vesuvius has been given
another chance. Three 250 pound
charges of gun cotton were sent oyer
the Notifications at the entrance.
The design was to drop them in the
bay, around the channel back Of the
eminence on which Ell Moro is stu.
ated, where it was known that the
destroyers were lying. Two charges
went true, as no reports were heard, a
popularity Of the explosion of gun
cotton in water. Whether the de-
stroyers were demolished is not known
but the destructive area of gun cotton
is large, and it would not be surpris-
ing If one or both torpedo boats were
destroyed. The third charge exploded
with terrific force on Cayo Smith. A
crater, big enough to hold a church,
was blown out of the side of Cayo

Smith, and was clearly seen from the

ships.
Admiral Sampson issued the order
Tor the bombardment the night before.
Coffee was served to the men az half
past 3 in the morning, and with the
hrst blush Of dawn the men were
called to quarters. The ships steamed
at knots to the SOO.yard range where
they closed up, broadside on, until a
distance Of three cable lengths sepa-
rated them,
They were strung out in the form of
a crescent, the heavy fighting ships in
the center, the flagship on the right
and the Massachusetts, on the left
Hank. The line remained stationary
throughout the bombardment. When
the ships got into position it was still
too dark for any firing. The admiral
signalled the ships not to fire until the
muzzles of the enemy's guns in the
emorasures could be seen by the gun
captains.
Fifteen minutes later at 5:25 a. M
the New York opened with a broad.
side from her main battery at the
works east Of the entrance to the
harbor. All the ships followed in
streaks Of flame, The fleet enyeloped
In smoke they relted hills and kicked
up nils and masonry. 1t was a mag.
nifcient spectacle from where the
Dauntless lay. Though the gun cap.
tains had been cautioned not to waste
ammunition, but fire with deliber.
alton, the fire was so rapid that there
was almost a continuous report. A
strong land breeze off shore carried
the smoke Of the ships seaward; while
it let down thick curtain in front of
the Spanish gunners, Their guns
responded spiritedly at first but their
frienzied, half crazed fire could not
match the cool nerve, trained eyes
and skilled gunners of the Americans,
Our fire was much more effective
than in the preceding bombardments.
The 'admiral's ordnance expert had
given explicit directions to reduce the
powder charges and to elevate the
guns so as to shorten the trajectory
and thus to secure a plunging fire,
The effect Of the reduced charges was
marvellous. In fifteen minutes one
western battery was completely
wrecked. The Massachusetts, tore a
gaping hole in the emplacement with
a thousand pound projectile and the
Texas dropped shell into the powder
Explosion wrought terrible
havoc. The frame was lifted, side
was blown out and a shower of debris
flew in every direction. The loss of
life must haye been great.
The batteries to the east of Moro
we re harder to get at, but the New
Orleans crossed the bows of the New
York to within $50 yards off shore,
and played tattoo with her long
ten-lnch rifle, hitting them repeat
edly, striking a gun squarlY in the
muzzle, lifting it off its foundation
and sending it in sweeping somer-.
saults ints the air.
After while Admiral Sampson
signalled the ships to temporarily
cease firing, in order to allow the
smoke to clear from the batteries.
When the order came to $50 to cease
firing every gun Of the enemy had
been silenced for ten minutes, but as
the ships drew off a half dozen shots
were fired at the Massachusetts, and
Oregon, falling in their wake.
Probably no fewer than 5000 project
lies were fired of, in all weighing a
half million pounds.

DELAWARE. TUESDAY. OCTOBER III 1898.

Jim Corbett has been practically ar
ranged to be decided at the Lenox Ath-
,etic Club, New York. some time in De-
cember. Although no articles have been
signed Corbett has given his word to the
club that he will accept.
Parson Davies is now managing two
st. Louis theatres.
1t is fatty denied that Charlie White
will be the matchmaker of the Lenox
club.
Frank Erne does not know exactly
when he will leave for California.
George Dixon and Dave Sullivan have
been matched, and the date is to be
agreed upon.
Fred Preston, who calls himself the
champion of Australia, says he will come
to America if he can get on match
with Fitz or Corbett.
Matty Matthews and Andy Walsh are
to box twenty-five rounds at the Lenox
A. G., New York, on October 2l.
Mysterious Billy Smith will lay off for
a few weeks to rest his sore hands.
Frank Farley, the Philadelphia 125
pound boxer left for Baltimore Monday,
to take charge of the Johns Hopkins
University boxing classes. Farley was
the instructor last season, and is popular
with the students.
Mysterious Billy Smith will probably
not fight for some time. His hands are
in bad shape, and he intends to rest un-
til they become thoroughly good, when
he will try to get on match with
Tommy Ryan. Smith has fought eight
battles in two months, and is certainly
entitled to rest.
Kid Mccoy got in saloon fight with
a colored man at Washington, D. G., Sat.
urday, and, as usual, left his footprints
on the mans stomach.

CYCLING.

A model cyclist never gives pedestrians
unnecessary annoyance.
Daily advice to those who need it:
Don't ride downtown on street car
when you can use your wheel. You will
save both time and money, and, besides,
you will at least be sure OF a seat.
Champion Eddie Bald and Tom
Cooper rode dead heat in the five mile
national championship at the National
Circuit race meet held at St. Louis Sun
day. This, by the way, was the first
Sunday race meet.
To carry bicycle brake will increase
ones mileage per hour, Hills can be
taken at better pace, bad corners can
be rounded more quickly and safely, the
general speed may be materially in:
creased, and rider can stop much
sooner because of the aid afforded by the
brake.
One of the most signal examples OF
how much the bicycle has done in edu-
eating the builders of carriages and aid
ing the progress of vehicllar construc-
tion generally is furnished by the news
that the largest ice company of Chicago
has adopted ball-bearing axles for all its
carts at an expense of many thousands
of dollars, with the resell that seven
tons OF ice are now drawn by two horses,
where three or four were formerly en-
ployed.
A valuable article for touring riders
and others who GO into the country,
where they have occasion to drink from
springs and brooks, is water filter fixed
with a rubber tube near one end, to the
outside of which mouthpiece is at
tached. By dropping one end into
brook drink of clear cold water can be
obtained without danger OF consuming
insects or dirt or germs of any kind.
The tube is short, and, being flexible,
can be carried easily in a pocket or
tool bag.
