NO MORE BLOCKADE RUNNING.
Now that Havana Is Thoroughly Stocked
with Provisions the Blockade IL to
BE Made Effective.

Copyright. 1888. by the Associated PreSs.l
OFF SANTIAGO DE CUBA. Wednesday,
June - p. IN, via Kingston, ia
maica. June 24.-With the complete in
vcstment of Santiago de Cuba by land
and by sea. but Il few days off. the adj
miral has decided to strengthen the
blockade of che large ports on the
southern "a westward of Santiago.
For three weeks the south coast,
west of Santiago to Cape San Antonio,
has been practically unprotected. The
b.oc.ladc had been simply on paper. in
name only, with the result that it :
known that quite Il 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 cargoes under the lee of
the Isle of Pines, and thence the pro-
visions. etc. were taken in small boats
to BataIrano. whence the railrJa | runs
to Havana. only 81 miles away.
The majority of the blockade run
ners have gone out from Jamaica. and
two of them at least are known to
have made several trips. Only last
week the steamer Purisima Conception,
flying the Spanish flag. took Il cargo
OF; of Kingston, ostcnsibIy for Man
zanillO. but probably for the Isle of
Pines. The auxiliary cruiser Yosemite
missed her by IA few hours. The Pu-
risima Conception carried. in addition
TO provisions. arms and ammunition.
These cargoes were undoubtedly SNUG
gled into the Spanish lines, and will
aid Capt.-Gen. Blance greatly in with
standing the siege.
The admiral has now decided that
blockade running must cease. and yes
terday he dispatched four fast ships to
patrol the coast from Cape Cruz to the
Isl e of Pines.

FAITH IN GERMANY.
Washington Discredits All Reports
of Interference in Manila.
GERNANY'S GOOD FAITH Is PLEDGED.
h Government Bound to Believe the
Representations OF Her Agents Until
Some Overt Act Proves Tnem Insin-
ce~re-COnfidence In Dewey.

WASHINGTON, Jun: a4.-The reports
that Germany has landed a naval force
at Manila is discredited in the most
positive manner at the state depart
ment, and in the best informed GiplU-
matte quarters. 1t is looked upon as a
part of the persistent foreign propa-
ganda, inspired from Madrid, which
for weeks has been seeking to stir up
luminosity between the United States,
Germany, France and other countries.
That the report is purely ~conjecturai is
shown from the fact that there is no
cable communication out of Manila,
and even Admiral Dewey, who holds
the shore end of the cable, has not
been heard from in some days.
The authorities here take strong
grounds in maintaining that the good
faith of Germany cannot be questioned,
in view of the definite statements from
the German foreign office, and from
the German ambassador to the state
department. These have said with
the utmos positiveness that Germany
was not only maintaining the strictest
neutrality, but that any reports Of
Interior motives on her part where I'M
warranted and were a reflection upon
the good faith with which that empire
deals with the outside world.
The officials here regard such assur-
ances as conclusive and they will not
even entertain the idea hat the pres
ence of German ships in Manila har-
Dor is a mace
So long as there is no overt act or
presumption of an overt act, but will
rely absolutely on the Ger
many has given voluntarily.
In some quarters it is suggested that
such a serious condition of affairs
might arise at Manila as to cad the
foreign naval commanders to land
forces for strictly police duty. But it
is d by officials tina. no such condi-
ton has arisen thus far. and Thai there
is every evidence tina; Admiral Dewey
is strong enough to MAINTAIN order
and protect the lives and property of
all parties concerned.
In any event, it is pointed out. the
landing of ii foreign force would be
solely for policing purposes. in case an
insurgent raid threatened wholesale
massacre. and such police protection
would be temporary and quite distinct
from Il well-detined government pol
icy to secure territory in the Philip
pines.
Aside from the reliance placed on
the voluntary friendly assurances of
Germany, the officials are confident
that the tact and foresight of Admiral
Dewey will successfully maintain the
interests of this government and at the
same time avoid foreign complications.

"Senor Sagasta informed the chamber

upon the government, declared that
the monarchy was to blame for all that
