Daring Attempt by the Spaniards Frus=
trated by a Vigilant Lookout


.(Copyrighted 1898 by the Associated
Press.)
OF Santiago de Cuba, Saturday, June
4.-(Via Kingston, June 9.)-The fir
ing by the New York and the New Or
leans, briefly reported last night, was
directed against Spanish torpedo
boat destroyer, probably the FuroF or
the Pluton. The character of the en-
emy was not definitely known until
the next day, when the torpedo boat
Porter found two loaded torped0ee
floating of shore. : :. Neither of them
was discharged. One sank. but the
other was hauled on board the Porter.
1t exactly fitted the description Of
the torpedoes carried by the Pluton
and Furor 1t is believed the torpedo
boat destroyer escaped. She was seen
by the New Orleans when too far away
to do any damage and the heavy firing
must have driven her back. When
the New York arrived she would have
to stink along the shore and back into
the harbor This daring attempt of the
Spaniards, which was fortunately frus-
trated by the vigilance of the New Or
leans lookout is the first instance OF
! it's kind since the beginning of the war

THE cHARLEsToN's DESTINATION
She Will Be Sent to Occupy the La
drOne Islands.

San Francisco, June 9.-The Even
ing Post will say today: The cruiser
Charleston will not go to the Philip
pine islands Immediately but her des-
tination is the Island OF Guahan, in
the Ladrone group, which is controlled
by Spanish and which are about 1900
miles from Manila and $500 miles
from Honolulu The chief city OF
Guahan is exceedingly well fortified for
such small place and affords one of
the best harbors and coaling stations
in the Pacific. About six months ago
the fortifica tions were strengthened by
the Spanish to present formidable re-
sistance in case of an attack. The
Post says the United STATES will seize
the group and use the Island of Guahan
for coaling station in addition to any
other she may seize in the future. 1t
is said the Monadnock will not stay
at Honolulu, but will proceed to the
Ladrones and remain there as perma-
nent guardian of the interests of the
United States.

THE REVENUE BILL.
The Conference Committee Agrees or
Report.

Washington, June 9.-The confer
ees on the war revenue bill concluded
their work at noon today, but decided
not to report their agreement to either
house of congress until all the amend
ments can be printed. This, it is be-
lieved, can be done by l or 2 O'Clock.
The programme is to present the re-
port first to the house and if possible
secure action upon it before adjourn
ment tonight There will be a strong
effort to get it to the senate tomorrow.
The committee declines to give out
any Of the terms of agreement in ad-
vance of the report to the house.
1t is known, however, that the sit
yer seigniorage provision was re-
tanned, though in modified form. A
compromise for the coinage of silver
bullion and the seigniorage in the
treasury provided for the coinage OF
81 SOC, 900 per month instead OF $4,000
coo, as provided in the senate bill.
Silver is to be coined under the exist
ing law and it is estimated that at the
rate provided it will require about five
years-to coin the silver in the treas
