The TRIBUNE feels that it owes its
subscribers an apology for the lateness
OF this issue, but having a large run of
election supply work on hand the delay
was unavoidable. During the trying
times of political battle circumstances
often arise which makes il impossible
at certain times to do as one would
wish and in this the TRIBUNE is not an
exception. A good thing is always bet
ter late than never and we trust this
issue shall be no exception to the rule.

Manila Captured and Entire Spanish Fleet Destroyed

The famous ST. Clair county bond
case bids fair to be settled at last.
Judge Philips has been working
through the county judges and
other influential citizens of that
county to effect compromise, and
recently a number of mass meetings
were held and the expression is
pretty general that compromise
will be effected on the basis of
issuing new bonds to the face value
of the old ones, 100000. The
bond-holders have agreed to throw
off the 80 years accumulated inter
est which, with the principal, now
amounts to S1,5OO,OOO Before a
special election can be ordered fifty
citizens of the county have to peti.
ton the court to that cad. Petitions
are now being circulated and it is
thought that the election will be
called about June % The bonds
which have been Ia source of annoy
anes to ST Clair county for so many
years, were issued to promote the
building of a railroad which was
never constructed. The people of
the county have always denied any
liability for the bonds, claiming that,
as the road was never built, they
should not be called upon to pay the
debt. The case has been in the
courts for years, and many of the
county judges have been sent to Jail |
for refusing to order tax levies, after
being ordered to do so by the courts. |

SIX PAGES.

YESTERDAYS dailies told of the
commandment of the Spanish fortitica-
tions at Matanzas by the New York,
Puritan and Cincinnati, which they re-
duced and sienced in Is minutes. 1t
was provoked by continued firing at
our vessels, when Admiral Sampson
undertook a reconnaissance. a naval
engagement in Asiatic waters is ex-
pected near Manila, where the Spanish
fleet has taken position and is being
approached by Commodore Dewey's
squadron. Saturday is the day fixed
for the establishment of base OF sup
plies for the Cuban sufferers and it is
said the insurgents are gathering 10
aid the warships in the effort. Neu-
trality proclamations have been Issued
by Italy, the Netherlands, Russia,
Switzerland, Norway, Sweden and
Colombia. 1t is unofficially known that
France and Great Britain have done
likewise. The statement that Portu-
gal will also issue such proclamation is
discredited in our dispatches.
Matanzas, at which the first battle of
the war occurred, is s.. miles from Ha-
vana and has $1,000 inhabitants. 1t is
next TO Havana in commercial import
ance and is most valuable port for the
U. S. to hold. It is said that many
Spanish were killed and wounded by
the shells, but the American vessels
were unscathed. The result shows that
Havana is at the mercy OF our warships
and that they could destroy its defen-
ses in an hour
A Madrid dispatch says that the
Spanish fleet will not attempt to lift
the blockade of Cuba, but will be used
for more effective work elsewhere,
which means that the merchant marine
had better seek friendly ports.
Gov Bradley now has full instruc-
tions from the war department as 10
the organization of the militia. The
number wanted is 3,246 instead OF $500
as stated, and they must be between
he ages of Is and 40 and in physical
vigor.
