P0RT AU PRINCE, HAYTI, May ST.
About 2o'clock this afternoon an Amer
lean squadron, composed of IA war
ships, with the cruiser New York dis
playing the flag of Rear Admiral Samp-
son, and a number of torpedo boats,
began a bombardment with heavy guns
of the forts and the harbor of Santiago
de Cuba.
The American fire was'directed prin-
cipally against the forts and the har-
Dor. The forts of Moro Castle. La
Socapa and Punta Garda suffered es-
pecially. The cannonading was very
persistent, and cannot have failed to
be effective. II lasted until AS p. m.
The town, which is situated near the
inner end of the harbor, escaped dam
age.
At 3 As p. m, the cannonade dimin-
ish6d. About 3 o'clock cannon dis
charges were heard at distance, pre-
sumably at sea, continuing for some
time, when the firing ceased.
The Spanish authorities maintain
strict silence as to the number of vic
tins, who were apparently numerous.
CAPE HAYTIEN, HAYTI, May 31.-Ad-
vices just received from Havana say
that since 2 o'clock this afternoon the
American fleet at Santiago de Cuba has
been cannonading the batteries of Nor
ro Castle, La Socapa and Punta Garda.
At the same time it is said the Amer
ican ships have been engaged with the
Spanish warships, The firing was ex-
tremely heavy. At $40 p. M, the
cannonading became less heavy against
the fortifications, but was more ac-
centuated in the locality where the
fleets were engaged.
The Havana adyices indicate that the
American fleet has forced the entrance
of the harbor Of Santiago de Cuba and
has engaged the Spanish fleet.
At q 40 O'Clock p. nl. the cable IS still
working from Santiago. Private mes
saoes intimate that there has been Sc
we're fight between the American fleet
and the outer tortifications and the
Spanish fleet. i.
The fight lasted the greater part or
the afternoon. The advantage seems
to have been with the Americans. Ac-
cording to the latest adyices the COM
bat is still in progress.

the reported bombardment OF santiago

CALLED DOWN.
Was a Harvard Professor Who Sought
 to Denounce the Government.

Boston, Mass, May 4.-Prof. Charles Eliot Norton of Harvard had the un- usual experience this morning of be- ing called down in the class room by an undergraduate.
 When Prof. Norton began his regu- lar lecture he took the opportunity to allay somewhat the intense feeling which is so prevalent among the stu dents. He became very bitter against the action of congress in declaring war, saying that it was the second in glorious war in our history, and was brought on by politicians and news papers. When the professor finished and was about to begin his lecture proper he was interrupted by G. L.. Richards of New York, a special stu dent, formerly a French engineer con nected with the Panama canal. MT. Richards said that he spoke from birth and personal experience, and painted black picture of Spanish in iquity, which reused his classmates to high state of enthusiasm. As he concluded his remarks he was given a tremendous ovation.
 Prof. Norton's reply was very calm and digniied, he being content to rest the case with the statement that he did not think war to be the mission of the United States.

New York, May "A special to the Press from Washington says: When President Dole Of Hawaii left the city recently, after his visit to aid in the annexation proceedings before con- gress, he carried with him a draft of a bill which promises to make history. It is for the passage by the Hawaiian congress and provides in the event of a war in which the United States may need the Hawaiian islands for base of supplies, that the islands shall be put under the protection of the Amer
 ican flag.
 It was prepared with the knowledge
 of members of the senate comm1tte6 on foreign relations and had the ap- proval of the administration in certain conditions One condition was that it
 should not be submitted to the Ha-
 waiian congress unless there was war.
 When President Dole left this country
 war with Spain had not besn declared
 but was deemed probable
 No conditions are to be imposed on
 the United States should the flag be raised over the islands. No considera- tion was named whereby an appcop- riation would be required which would
 need congress- action and probably cause complications.
 A majority in the senate and house are in favor of the annexation of Ha- waii and the project has failed so far only through lack of the necessary two-thirds vote in the upper body. In an emergency the president of the United States can exercise what is known as the war power.
 He can accept the privilege granted by the. Hawaiian government for
 base of supplies in the racific ocean
 and to guard the islands completely the flag of the United tSates would
 be raised as a barrier, against which foreign meddling would not be per, mitted. It would not surprise vel
 known legislators to hear by the nex' steamer from Honolulu the confrma- tion CT strong indication of the full
 hllment Of this important news. The operations of Commodore
 Dewey in the Philippine islands arf significant in connection with the ex' pected establishment of a protectorats or sovereignty over Hawaii.
 The Hawaiian islands are on line
 drawn from the Philippine islands
 slightly northward to San Francisco
 From the Philippine islands to Homo lulu the distance is more than 4,00(
 miles. From Honolulu to San Fran
 cisco it is 2,100 miles. The necessitie:
 of the United States demand this rest l ing place. British necessities are SC
 great in commerce that if the United States does not control this Pacific station Great Britain must, in sell preservation, assume control.
 Honolulu promises to become tht
 resort of a tremendous fleet of ocear steamers, mostly British. All collier ships have to stop there and the pres ent Hawaiian government will not bs able to maintain the proper police ant sanitary conditions. The expecta tion in the English foreign office Ii that the United States will respond U Hawaii's invitation.
 England favors this course rather than to permit another power to cen trol her line of communication witt Australia. The British ministry ha: assured the state department that I views with favor Hawaiian occupation
