consideration the eostoffice appropria-
ton bill. The measure carries 500. 224,-

Cuba who are destitute and in imminent
danger Of perishing unless they receive
the same.
Sec. 2. That the president and general
officers commanding troops in Cuba are

CAMARA,s STAGE PLAY.

VANS to Go to Manila.

ASSOCIATED Press DispatCh.l
NV York, June "a Tribune dispatch
from London says:
I Admiral CEmara's voyUge to PORT Said
has been reEarded by EEyal experts here
as a theatrical device Cor inducing the
Spanish people TO belieys that the Madrid
government is not torpid, but is capable
OF doing something. TIES have considered
| II incredible that he should have any
| Invention Of going to Manila. where he
could only arrive withaut coal and un-
prepared to meet Dewey with fleet well
supplied ana heavily reinforced from san
EnlnCisco
The only theory on WAich so foOlhardy
plan could be explained would be q
sSSret intrigue between Germany aud
SpEin by which their fleets might act
together, and that supposition is not
within the bounds Of cradibility, mysteri-
QUE as the German emperor's Interior pur-
pose in the Philippines may be. The
prnmpt announcement from Washington
that an American fleet is preparing 10
sail for Spain Is regarded in naval circles
here as a convenient preteXt for the re-
call OF Camara's squadron TO home wat
ers, after a great naval promenade
through the Mediterranean.
Whether Camara will be allowed TO pass
through the Suez canal Is eagerly dis
cussed here. There is nothing in the canal
convention or International law that
stands in his way, and the tolls while
heavy, can be paid to the Suez canal
company in Paris. Lord Cromer could
undoubtedly preTent the passage Of the
fleet II he was ordered to do Il from Lon
don, and there would be various methods
OF harrassng Camsra and obatructing the
passage Of his squadron, for Lord Gro
mer's will is supreme in Egypt
The vessels could be detained there II
the London government We're to suggest
the propriety of such action, but it is
impossible for anyone in London to find
out whether the American government
really wants to have Camars's feet
stopped, and, unless mat fact be estab-
lished, he may so on to Manila through
the canal il he desires to do so.
The feeling among naval men here Is
that the American government would do
better to oppose no obstacles to his pro-
gress since II he perseveres he will run |
short Of coal, break down on the way |
and be in no condition for fighting Dewey. !
Meanwhile the American fleet will be 1t |
liberty to set out for the Spanish ports |
and bring the war to a close.
There is no evidence that the foreign |
office has received any intimation that
the American government wants to have
the Spanish fleet stopped. At any rate
Camara can only have enough coal TO take
him back to Cartegena, His maneuvers
are not regarded here with seriousness,
but are pronounced an unexpected bit of
comic by-play in the drama of war. What
promotes more reflection here is the pro-
duction OF artificial interest of various
kinds for justifying the meddlesome ac-
tivity of the German admiral at Manila
by the discovery of some effective sub
stltute for the murdered missionaries who
were so useful at Kiao Chou.

W oRT TOWNSEND, June g.
- According to adviees brought
from Japan by the steamship
Columbia, which arrived here
last night, considerable Indignation
prevails among the American sailors
and officers Of the feet at Manila over
the treatment Of the captain OF the
Spanish gunboat Callao, which sailed
into Manila bay about week after
the battle and was captured by Dew
ey's fleet.
The Spaniards claim he showed COW
ardlce In not returning the fire Of the
Americans. After giving him a Span
ish court martial he was sentenced to
be shot, but Admiral Dewey came to
his rescue and took him under the
protection Of the American govern
ment.
Hundreds Of people in Manila are US
ing every effort to leave and are offer-
ing 500 and 500 for transportation out.
As the time draws near for the ar
rival Of the United States soldiers they
are becoming more restless. Another
source Of anxiety is in the case Of the
bombardment of Manila what the
spaniards will do with their women
and children, as they cannot be sent
to the interior, since they would be-
come the prey Of the rebels. 1t is
stated an appeal will be made to the
British consul to make arrangements
for their removal in case Of lombard
ment.
Since entering Manila bay the Ameri-
can fleet has been unable to obtain
fresh provisions and the men have
been living on salt fare. Notwithstand-
ing this, there is no sickness among
the crews and all are patiently waiting
Tor orders to take possession Of Ma
Mia. The Spanish soldiers are anx-
ious to meet the American troops in
battle. They are well armed with
Mauser rifles, and Captain General
Augusti says everyone will fight with
desperation to maintain the honor Of
Spain.
