Extra Session Not Probable

Governor Voorhees, said, on Monday
that there was no likelihood of speca
session of the Legislature being called il
order to provide more funds Tor tquippiDt
the State troops called for by President
McKinley's proclamation. The Governor
said:-
Anticipating the call for troops the
Legislature provided equipment for 400C
men and also provided sufficient sum fol
subsistence. There was some little delay
in camp and this caused slight deficiency
The money necessary to make it up will bs
borrowed, and [ have no doubt that the
Legislature will refund the same, at itf
next regular session.
An extra session will only be called il
it should be found necessary to make pro
vision for the voting Of soldiers. This
question is now under consideration. An
old law was enacted which permitted vot-
ing by soldiers, but whether the subse-
quent enactment of the Werts law repealed
the prior law is now the question we are
trying to decide. If it found there is no
such repeal, no extra session will be
needed. If the occasion should arise, the
Legi Iature will, undoubtedly, make the
necessary provision so that the soldiers can
cast their votes. /"
General Plume visited Camp VOORHEES,
on Wednesday afternoon and held long
conference with the Governor.

cERyERA WAS NOT THERE.


Else Our Warships Would Have Been
Defeated, Says a Havana Dispatch.
Havana, June Admiral Cervera,
it is reported here, was not at Santiago
de Cuba during the bombardment by
the American squadron. Had he been
there the Spanish warships would have
entered the combat against the Aneri-
cans, confident of a victorious outcome.
The Spanish troops have orders to
make an energetic, a slight or no re-
sistance, according to circumstances.
with view of facilitating the landing
of American forces, SO that the latter
may go into the interior of the country,
where the Spanish are convinced they
will be able to defeat them.
The Spanish army and navy are
anxious to measure arms with the
Americans, and DESTROYS that propi-
tious occasion may soon present itself,
trusting for the result to the courage
of the Spanish soldiers and sailors, to
their better organization and to the
greater skill of their commanding Of
ficers.

Cape Haytien, Hayti, June 2.-Tht
fight at Santiago de Cuba Tuesday was
as fierce as the first reports indicated
the big Spanish fort Ell Moro, at the
entrance to Santiago harbor, being
completely destroyed Several Ameri-
can ships were struck, and the auxili-
airy cruiser ST. Paul, commanded by
Captain Sigsbee, was seriously dam
aged by the Spanish shells, part of hel
sides being torn away.
The United States torpedo boat Por-
ter arrived in the harbor of Mole st
Nicolas. Hayti, yesterday and left dis
patches for Washington, returning to
Santiago. Admiral Sampson was not
in Tuesdays fight at Santiago, as re-
ported, all honor being due to Commo-
dore Schley, whose object in the attack
was to discover the strength of the
Spanish Notifications.
According to the story told by one OF
the Porter's officers to a Mole st. Nico-
las correspondent, the battleship Iowa,
commanded by Fighting Bob Evans,
led in the attack, being closely follow
ed by the torpedo boat Porter, the St
Paul and the protected cruiser New
Orleans.
Just inside the harbor entrance, be-
tween Ell MORO and La Socapa, was
the Spanish cruiser Cristobal Colon
one of the ships that Admiral Cervera
brought from Spain, which supported
the forts in their defense.
The New Orleans was detached and
sent ahead in order to draw the Span.

The gunners on the American battle
ships concentrated their aim on the
Spanish cruiser, which stood 2 perfect
storm of shell for a little while, bu,
sought refuge behind promonotory.
Then all attention was paid to the
batteries. Firing was kept up on them
for five hours. The walls were riddled
and the guns knocked from their en-
placements. The Spanish soldiers
could be seen from the Porter running
for protection among the hills.
The American ships are said to have
fred 70 shots, and the destruction OF
life in the Spanish lines must have
been great. The walls tumbled in on
the gunners, and the list Of wounded
must be UP in the hundreds.

Senator Daniels made one of the strong
est speeches yet made against the issue of
bonds, and in favor of paying the expenses
of the war as we 90 along, rather than sad
ding them upon posterity. Replying to
the contention that the issue of bonds pro-
posed was intended for eject upon Spain
Senator Daniels said that if the desired eff
feet could be assured he was ready to vote
to issue bonds "But, he impressively
continued, if Spain was not convinced at
Manila that this country was in earnest in
this war, then Sampson and Schley and
Miles and their lieutenants have some ar
guments to submitto her that will prove to
be even more assured vehicles Of conviction
than any issue of bonds could be-" He de-
clared the stamp tax to be the most odious
and pestiferous tax invented by man.

President Mckinley was elected on a
platform which promised to Territories
officials chosen from among their res
idents The President has been eloquent
on behalf of this principle. Nevertheless
when Senator Quay went to the White
House and demanded the Receivership OF
Public Money at Perry, Oklahoma. for
James J. Power, of Pennsylvania, Mr.
Mckinley repudiated his pledge and sent
in the nomination. The Senate committee
to which the matter was referred, made an
adverse report upon the ground that a
Territory with SO large population as
Oklahoma ought to have the promised
home rule. But Boss Quay easily secured
good majority to override the adverse
report and thus showed once more that

There is no necessity OF any issue of
bonds by the United States Government if
the expenses of the war are to be paid by
Spain, and the people will insist upon
that. The fact is that the Administration
wants to issue bonds to cover up the eyer
increasing deficit under the Dingley Tariff
bill and conceal the utter failure of that
Republican measure by imputiDg its results

The wheel has done a good deal for
the physical development of the new
woman. A little incident that hap
pened yesterday on upper Nineteenth
street gave interesting proof of this.
A sweet-faced woman with silvered
hair and clad in plain gray dress was
riding slowly along when she saw
ahead of her small boy pushing along
on tricycle. and towing a little blue
cart tied with a string to the axle Of
his vehicle. There were more young
sters further up the street, and the
little chap was looking at them and
trying to put on speed to reach them.
A smile oyerspread the face of the sill
ver-haired woman, and a sudden
thought seemed to occur to her.
She rode a little slower, held the
handlebar with one hand and with the
other found the pocket in her dress.
Skilfully she guided her bicycle close
to the little red cart, and as she reach
ed it the disengaged hand drew from
the pocket a big, round, red apple,
which she deftly dropped in the little
cart.
The boy did not hear it and kept on.
The woman rode past, then turned and
came behind, riding slower than be-
fore. The youngster at length reach
ed his playmates and dismounted.
AS he did SO he saw his prize and
jumped for it, then looked wonderingly
around to see where it came from.
The lady with the silver hair watch
ed him as she wheeled past and evil
IDENTIFY had her full reward in the
child's pleasure and establishment.
But the marvel to the man who saw
it from the sidewalk was how a wo-
man could find her pocket on a wheel.

One of the great bugbears of spins
terhood has been demolished by Min
nesota woman Though she had had
many suitors, of course, she was still
unwedded az thirty, and one day, as
she was sending off a gift to a girl
friend. who was about to be married,
she bewailed The fact that the bachelor
girl never got wedding presents or a
trousseau. Her father promised that
she herself should not be sighted in
this respect, whether she married or
not, and a few weeks ago, when she
accepted the offer of business position
and decided to sake up her bachelor
residence in Chicago, the old gentle
man was as good as his word. He
gave her handsome check to buy a
complete outfit of clothes, from shoes
to bonnets; and many of her friends
took up the idea and gave her useful
and ornamental articles for her bache-
lor apartment. And now it is an
nounced-whether it be through the
aid of her fine feathers or not is not
stated-she is to marry the president
of the company that employs her.
