War Barge Sunk in Saturday Nights
Storm

CHARLESTON, S. c., June S-A war
laden barge and her crew of five men in tow
of the steamer Leonidas were lost last Sat-
urday night between Norfolk and Charles
ton. The Leonidas and her cargo were en-
route from Norfolk to Key West to supply
the army and navy. The loss Of the barge
and her crew was brought to port today
by the pilot boat r. H. Cowan, which was
hailed off the jetties by the Leonidas and
given dispatches to be sent north. The pilot
boat was given but little information of
the disaster, the full details of the tele-
gram being sealed From what could be
learned. the vessel encountered a severe
storm last Saturday night off the coast of
North Carolina and during the gale the
hawsers parted and the barge went down.
The barge was of iron and schooner-rigged
The steamer is en- route to Key West with
ammunition and supplies for the United
States war vessels and army The cargo
of the Leonidas required an immediate de-
livery, and her master found 1t impossible
to put into port to wire the particulars.

WHITNEY's REPORT
Based on Observation of Porto Rican
Affairs

NEW YORK. June S.-Lieutenant Henry
Whitney, Fourth United States Artillery,
who has twice penetrated into the very
heart of Spanish territory, once In Cuba
and last time in Porto Rico, arrived here
today on the British steamer Ardanrose
from Porto Rico. Through him the War
Department will soon be in possession of
important and accurate information con-
corning the military strength and de-
lenses of the island. The Porto Rican mis-
sion was undertaken under orders from the
department to travel through the most
strongly fortified places and the head
quarters of the military bodies and OBJ
serve their strength and the preparations
the commanders had made to resist occu-
patton by the American troops.
Lieutenant Whitney made the journey
with great expedition. He found ten vol
unteer troops and $500 regulars in and
about Ponce. The soldiers were sickly,
however, and disconnected for lack of pay.
Food was scarce and that fact combined
with the American sentiment pervadiag
the towns, inclined him to the belief that
if the United States troops did not invest
the island soon the inhabitants would turn
upon the Spaniards and drive them out.

THE OREGoN'S TRIP
Calls Forth Comment From Builder Of
the Vessel

NEW YORK, June S.-Irving M. Scott, the
builder of the battleship Oregon, sailed for
Europe on the North German Lloyd liner
Kaiser William Der Crosse. He goes to ST.
Petersburg, it is said, to seek contracts for
warships from the Russian government
The builder of the Oregon arrived in this
city on May 30th after spending several days
in Washington. There he was overwhelmed
with praise for the Oregons achievement
President Mckinley was among those who
congra tulated him.
1.-The Oregon represents the best type of
battleship this country has yet built" said
Mr.. Scott. "When 1t was designed the OBJ
ject was to have something to fight with
after the big guns in the forward and after
turrets had been destroyed. Hence, eight
guns in turrets forward and after were in
troduced.
1.-THE Royal Sovereign class which Eng
land built prior to the construction of the
Oregon had two Pinch guns in barbettes
forward and aft, and ten six-inch rapid
frers, five on each side. Only four of these
broadside guns were protected, and If It
lost its big guns it would only have the
six-inch ones to protect itself with.
ut would seem that the proper thing to do
in the future would. be to develop in still
more advanced stage the original Of the Ore
gon, lengthen the hull increase the power
so that the ship would have greater speed
and coal-carrying capacity, and IL possible
suppant the present slow six-inch battery
with battery of rapid firers
1.-THE run of the Oregon was no more
than those who knew the vessel felt sure
it would make. 1t is not the first ship that

President was in consultation with q
senator when he received press dispatch
to the effect that Captain Phillips Of the
battleship Texas had been killed by a
Spanish shell at Santiago. He said there
is no reason to believe 1t to be true. He
cited Admiral SIMPSONS official dis
patch announcing no casualties and said
ii the report was to be given and credence
he would have been wired at once.
Throughout the forenoon there was q
long line of callers. Practically all Of
them sought war appointments. Senator
White was among the callers.

Death

PITTSBURG, June S.-Three children
met death in frighlful manner last even
ing in Allegheny. By the explosion of a
can of oil their clothing was ignited and
the children were burned so terribly that
they died in a short time. The victims
were:
Ella, Edith and Harvill Watts, children
of Charles Watts of Fern HILL near
Woodsrun avenue, aged II and years.
and months respectively.
The eldest child proved herself heroine,
for with the flames roasting her body,
she tried to carry her baby brother to a
place of safety Mrs. Watts was also
burned in trying to save her children.
The children were playing in an out
house in the yard and one of them struck
a match. In the same room was a large
can containing two gallons of oil. When
the match was thrown down it dropped
into the can and the explosion followed
instantly.

tanned no injuries, and that there had been
no casualties among the personnel OF the
American fleet.
, Naval officers today expressed the belief
that about all of the force landed Monday
from Simpsons fleet were marines, and that
their purpose was not SO much to take mill
itary possession of the landing made. but to
spike some guns and destroy some batteries
that might have been reoocupied by the
Spaniards to advantage after the retirement
of the American fleet after the action. One
object of Admiral SIMPSONS attack, which
has escaped general observation, though
exceedingly important, was pointed out at
the Navy Department. This was to pre-
vent the Spaniards from making a sue
cessful attempt to remove the obstruction
of the channel, caused by the wreck of the
Merrmac. Having silenced the forts at the
entrance of the harbor, which while effec-
tive obliged the American fleet to lie many
miles out at SEA to keep out Of range Of
their guns, Sampson will now be able to
place one or more Of his ships close to the
mouth of the bottle where 1t will lie in COM
paratve safety and yet be able to command
easily with its guns the wreck of the Mer
rimac.
Cannon for Cuba
NEW YORK, June S.-The siege guns
that are going to Cuba with the army of in
vasion have nearly all come from small
ports and from many cities of considerable
Importance, says the Washington cores
ondent of the Tribune.
The plan of mounting these guns was car
lried out by General Wilson, chief of engi-
lneers, who managed before the war began
ito get together number of converted old
rifles and smoothbores and placed them in
position for the defenses of such ports as
Port Royal, Miami, Jupiter Inlet and St.
Augustine and several of the smaller towns
along the gulf coast These guns gave a
air defense, the General says, and would
have kept at distance any light draught
ships entering the ports where they were
mounted.
| Senator Tillman was one Of the most per-
sistent advocates of sending guns to these
little coast towns, and succeeded in getting
the mouth of Cape Fear river well pro-
ltected. Other Southern Senators presented
strong arguments and used such persua-
sion for defending ports in their States that
soon all the siege guns available were
mounted on improvised emplacements.
All this was accomplished at considerable
outlay of money. Lately orders came to
ship every field gun to Tampa and other
ports where troops are to embark for Cuba,
and the work of removing the pieces was
begun Senators are now protesting against
their removal, but they have been assured
that with Cervera in Santiago and the
Cadz fleet too decrepit to cross the ocean,
the most exposed port need have no fear
from Spanish bombardment If any Of the
enemy attack these ports the war officials
say that the old smoothbores would keep
off any ships that would get close enough
in shore to operate their guns successfully.
