CUBAN TROOPS.
Adm. Sampson and Gen. Shafter and
Staff Visit Gen. Garcia's Camp.
Great Shouts Arose From the HaIf-Fed,
Half-ClOthed Cuban Veterans Who
Have Spent Three Years in
Fighting for Liberty.

OFF SANTIAGO DE CUBA, June 90, via
Kingston, Jamaica, June 22.-Gen.
CaliXtO Garcia and other Cuban Off
GERS gave Gen. Shafter and Adm.
Sampson a hearty welcome at Acerra-
doro Monday afternoon, when the
American officers on board the steamer
Seguranca went to his head quarters
for consultation.
The Cubans showered upon their
distinguished visitors all the blessings
of Cuba libre for the assistance OF the
United States in the Cuban struggle
for freedom and they expressed the
conviction that victory was at hand
and that the power of Spain would
soon be driven from the island by the
combined strength of American and
Cuban arms.
When the first curl of SIN oke ap-
peared on the distant horizon at noon
and announced the coming of the long
expected soldiers, Gen. Garcia him
self, with the officers of his staff around
him, stood on the hillside overlooking
the sea and gave forth expressions of
JOY as he watched the approach of the
vessels.
The welcome news soon spread
among his half-fed, half-clothed troops
and great shouts arose from the dark
skinned veterans who have spent
three years in fighting the war of
liberty. They watched the Seguranca
accompanied by the auxiliary gun
boat Gloucester, draw away from the
other vessels and make her course to the
flagship. After she had taken Adm.
Sampson aboard they saw her heading
for shore near their mountain camp.
The Cubans sent a guard of honor to
the beach to receive the Seguranca.
AS soon as she came to anchor in the
cove, Gen. Shafter and his staff, in
Guiding Gen. Ludlow, chief of
engineers, and Adm. Sampson,
accompanied by guard of soldiers,
went ashore in small boats They
were received by the Cubans with all
AAAAACoAy lOhOISs duO IlOESCS were
placed at the disposal of Gen. Shafter
and Adm. Sampson to ride up the steep
trail to Gen. Garcia's headquarters.
The Cuban commanders tent is a
rude hut, covered with leaves and con-
tanning only a meager camp outfit.
Here, after words of greeting had been
spoken, the consultation was held.
1t lasted several hours. Gen. Garcia
explained the plans fully; told how
he had the Spanish general, Pando,
cooped up in Manzanillo, without
the possibility of his being able to CO.
operate with the Spanish troops in
SantiagoJ and laid before the Amer
lean officers maps showing all the
mountain trails leading to Santiago
from the most convenient landing
places east and west of the har Dor en-.
trance.
Gen. Ludlow in particular made a
close investigation of this subject
and sought all the information avail
able with regard to the most feasible
plans of transporting a large body of
troops overland.

graph publishes Thursday IN {, a
long letter from Madrid, in the lrse
of which the writer says:
Peace or war is the all absor bling
topic. Every fifth word shouted in
the overcrowded cafes is ''paz'' or
guerra" and the desire for peace is
unanimous. The feeling of the nation
and the military party especially is,
however, that the government has be.
trayed the country and now only
wants to arrange for peace to save the
dynasty and itself
Therefore, peace must be made with
the nations express consent, not be-
hind its back, by private letters to the
pope and the Austro-Hungarian en-
peror. 1t may be desirable to uphold
the monarchy, but the country must
be saved even though the dynasty were
to disappear in the effort In fact the
government has succeeded in placing
the dynasty in an unenviable light
and in ranging it against the Spanish
army, and it has also made the ques-
ton of peace and war a choice between
the interests of the dynasty and the
welfare CO the Spanish people.

COOP DAY FoA as,1.
Excursions and the ist maias lie Case q Z
PSrllanie Sabheih.

There have been few Sundays ~
quiet as yesterday, In this city. The
Maine Central excursions were all well
patronized and drew good many peo-
pie either to SkOwhegan, Old Orchard
or Bar Harbor. In addition to these
attractions an unusually large number
OF people left this city for Augusta to
see the LIST Maine troops. As the re-
suit there was an unusual Quietness on
the streets.
There were but very few arrivals In
town. Some OF the hotels had blank
page on the register for Sunday.
Others had one or two names only
and still others had not more than half
a dozen names Of people from out OF
town. At the Elmwood the register
was fortunate enough to be relieved
Of barrenness by the names Of the Jere
McAuliff Co.
Those who did not go on the excur-
sions took advantage of Its being the
last Sunday in the church vacations
to take carriage drive. As the re-
suit nearly every road leading out OF
town was dotted with teams contain
ing families.
Those who did stay in town found
but little for amusement besides the
quiet OF their own homes. The Wa
terville Band left the city early in the
morning on the their way to Lake
George but not note was wasted on
the people Of Waterville. In conse-
quence the people who had been plan
ming to make up sleep during the day
had nothing to disturb their plans.

William A. Roberts of Biddeford,
who at one time had aspirations to run
against Thomas B. Reed as representa-

city, Saturday, leaving on the Pull

In conversation with a Journal re-
porter concerning the proposed Elec-
trio Road from Bonney Eagle to Saco.
a distance of 20 miles, he said the road
would be surely built this fall. In
further conversation he Md contracts
had already been made for the iron
and for building the road bed. He
said further that no attempt would be
made to run the road into Biddeford
but that the permit granted to run the
road from Bonney Eagle to Saco would
be first acted on. When that part of
the road is built then application will
he made to the railroad commissioners
to extend the railroad into Biddeford.
1t is his opinion that by the time the
road Is completed to Saco there will be
such a demand for the road from the
people OF Biddeford that the railroad
commissioners cannot refuse the re-
quest of the promoters.
