OF CAMARA.
Probability That He VIII Not Venture
Beyond Port Said.

Washington, June 27.-That the
Spanish Cadiz fleet is proceeding stead
lily eastward is no longer doubted here.
Trusted agents OF the government on
the shores OF the Mediterranean are
watching every movement OF the ships,
and availing themselves Of every relia-
BILE source of information. So when
word came from n Of these agents to-
day that the squadron was sighted off
Pantellaria day before yesterday, the
officials were bound to accept the state
ment as beyond question. The first re-
port to that effect, which came through
an Italian newspaper, was taken with
some reservation, owing to the known
efforts OF the Spanish government to
mislead our naval authorities by just
such publications in friendly neutral
newspapers. By reckoning Of the naval
officers, the squadron should be now
nearing Gambia, south OF Greece AT
the rate they are progressing, the
squadron should reach Port Said, at
the entrance to the Suea canal, about
Tuesday or Wednesday. Beyond this
point il is not believed that the squad
ron will 60, for it is confidently felt
that the whole Spanish movement is
nothing more than a spectacular dis
play, gotten up to meet the irresistible
demand of the Spanish ~populace and
particularly the clerical party that
something should be done to I've the
Philippines to Spain.
There is a question whether the
canal authorities will allow the heavy
Spanish armored ships to risk the pas
sage OF the canal, even if Admiral Ca
mara is willing to undertake it. Their
draught is so great that they might
easily ground in the canal and thus OBJ
struct it to navigation indefinitely.
But even if all these expectations are
not we'll founded. the naval officers
are confident of the ability Of Dewey
to successfully resist attack by the
Spanish squadron. According to their
calculation, the splendid do%uble-turret-
ed monitor Monterey is very neal Ma
Mia, under convoy OF the Brutus, and
her arrival may be expected within
two or three days. There is not an
ironclad In Camara's force that would
care tn stand before her.

June 25.-With the complete invest
ment of Santiago de Cuba by land and
sea but few days off, the admiral has
decided to strengthen the blockade OF
the large ports on the southern coast
westward Of Santiago.
For three weeks the south coast,
west of Santiago de Cuba to Cape San
Antonio, has been practically unpro-
tected. The blockade has been simply
on paper, in name only, with the result
that it is known that quite a number of
ships have run the blockade, and that
an immense quantity of provisions has
been Struggled into Havana. Most of
the blockade runners have landed their
agOes under the lee of the Isle of
Pines, and thence the provisions, etc.,
have been taken in small boats to Ba-
abano, whence the railroads runs to
Havana, only 80 miles distant.
The admiral has now decided that
blockade running must cease, and yes
terday dispatched four fast ships to pa
troll the coast from Cape de Cruz to the
Isle Of Pines.

OF TIME

Life is full of little ironies. Thus the
year 1898 sees England solicitous to
see Mr.. Mckinley, as president of the
United States, friendly to an alliance
of the two great countries. In the
year 1898 the presidents grand-uncle
was executed at C~oleraine as an enc
my of England. Today the power that
executed the grand-uncle seeks the
goodwill of the granddaughter.
The Mckinley family 1ourished on a
farm at Conagher, in County Antrim,
Ireland. They had retained enough of
their Scottish origin to remain Pres
byterians. One of them, Francis, was
evidently filled with the American idea,
for he was so sufficiently convinced
that Ireland was being oppressed by
England that he took an active part In
the great uprising of 1898.
Like many other men, he had the
misfortune to be hanged for his trou-
BILE, and was buried at Derrykeighan,
where one may still read his life-story
on a grave stone.
The veteran had two sons and five
daughters. One of the former came
to America to join his uncle, William,
who was the grandfather of President
Mckinley. His brother sold the pater-

He had completed one of tie most re-
markable feats of strength and perse-
verance chronicled in the long annals
of the An~glo-Saxon race, but he was
as fresh as a rose in the morning.
He stood on the government reserva-
ton at San Antonio surrounded by the
tawny savage band of Chiricahua
Apaches, whom he had hunted off their
feet. Near him, taciturn but of kindly
visage, stood young Chief Naches, al
most as tall as he. In a tent close by
lay Geronimo, the medicine man,

the hereditary enemies of the whites
grouped about him came only to his
shoulder. He lowered among them,
stern, powerful, dominant-an incarna-
ton of the spirit of the white man
whose wal drum has beat around the
world. Clad in a faded, dirty fatigue
jacket, a greasy flannel shirt of gray,
trousers so soiled that the stripe down
the leg was barely visible, broken boots
and a disreputable sombrero that
shaded the harsh features burned al
most to blackness, he was every Inch

officers at the post the Indians paid no

a part of a picture done for their
amusement, but the huge. massive man
with the stubble on his chin had shown
them that he was their superior on
hunting grounds that were theirs by
birthright, and they hung upon his
lightest word.
For the tenth time Geronimo's band
had jumped the San Carlos reservation.
The spring grass was two inches high
and the Indian lust for blood was
awake. AS usual, troops were started
upon a perilous chase. For days they
followed the trail over a country that
God Almighty made in wrath. Further
and further into the vast solitudes they
toiled. Volcanic crests reared about
them. Lava tore the leather from
their feet. They drank from springs
