THE CIENFUEGOS MATTER.
Spanish Story of the Repulse of the
 Americans.

Madrid, May 12.-The following dis patch has been received from Havana: "Early yesterday morning four Amer ican warships fired repeatedly com mon shots at Cienfuegos. In the meantime several steamboats towing eight large boats loaded with arms and ammunition for the rebels ap- preached the shore. Several batta- ions of infantry drawn up on the sea- shore, fired upon the boats, which speedily retreated. At the same time the batteries of the fort and oth- CTS along the coast fired upon the transports, which tried to make a landing along the banks of the river. The Spaniards again repulsed them by . hot volley. inficting heavy losses. Fourteen Spaniards were wounded" A second dispatch from Havana says: At o'clock yesterday morn ing three large and three small American ships appeared of Car denas. A small boat was detached with marines who landed near the fort and seized it. They also seized the semaphore station, taking the coast guards prisoners
 The whereabouts of the Atlantic squadron still remains undivulged ministers refusing to give any Information on the subject
 Official dispatches from Havana con firm the reports of an American re- pulse at Cienfuegos. They assert that the firing lasted eight hours and that the American losses were heavy. According to these dispatches great enthusiasm prevails in Cuba

A BREAKING CABINET.

Madrid, May 12.-It is said that Senor Moret, secretary for the col onies, and Senor GulIon, the foreign minister, have resigned. Admiral Bermejo, minister of marine, and Count Xiquena, minister of public works, are also said to have resigned.
 The retiring members offered vari- ous excuses, such as illness and weari- ness, for their withdrawal. Sencr Sagasta begged them to remain until an indemnity bill had been passed, but it is believed tonight the cabinet council resignations became definite. though it is impossible to cerify the exact situation at this hour.
 11:30 p. m. It turns out that Ad- miral Bermejo, on learning of the Ca vite disaster, told Senor Sagasta that he must resign owing to the deIIcacy of his position, though it is felt he is not responsible for the defenses of Manila.

SUPPLIES FOR THE ARMY.
Swift Packing Company Asked to Bid
 on Bacon.

Kansas City, May 12.-A telegram from the war department was received by Swift & Co. asking quotations on 100000 pounds of bacon to be sent forward to the various army posts in short order. This is one of the very large number of heavy orders that have come to the packers of this city. The firm submitted the bid on the stuff and if it is ordered filled at the price made will be sent out just as the war department requires. The war orders for rations have been something of a bonanza for western packers and rush orders have been filled by each of the Kansas City houses.

NEW HAMPSHIRE ALARMED.
Word Received at Portsmouth of the
 Approach of the Spanish.

Portsmouth, N. H., May 12.-Rear Admiral Carpenter, the commandant at the navy yard here, received a dis patch from Rear Admiral Erben at New York today informing him that the rear admiral had information which he considered accurate that Spanish ships were heading toward the New England coast Commandant Carpenter immediately informed the mayor, and Mayor Hilton at once tel ephoned Governor Ramsdell and tele- graphed the authorities at Washing ton for necessary orders to bring the New Hampshire troops to Portsmouth as soon as possible. Nothing has been seen of the squadron on this coast nor has anything been reported by incoming vessels at this port to furnish a foundation for Rear Admiral Eben's message, but the authorities are moving quickly and taking every precaution in view of the possibility of it's correctness.

probably be willing to do the same thing for the Spaniards, provided the latter pay the necessary cash.
 ''I doubt very much if this govern ment would direct Commodore Dew to the Mediterranean for the purpose of haTassing Spanish commerce in that sea and of attacking Spanish ports which lie upon it, but it would be possible for American men-of-war to reach the Mediterranean through the Suez canal if they were ordered to do so.
 There is a great deal of popular ig- norance on this point. AS mater of fact, the Suez canal is open to bellig- erents
 ''The principle of the naturalization of the Suez canal was applied by the convention of October 29. 1888, which was signed by the six great powers. by Turkey, Spain, and the Neither lands. Strictly speaking, their action does not bind the powers that were not parties to the convention, but, as none is of any importance except the United States, and all have distinctly acquiesced in what was done, the practical result is much the same as if the whole body of civilized nations had formally expressed their adhesion to 1t.
 "The convention declares that the canal is to be open in time of war as well as in time of peace, to all ships, whether merchantmen or vessels Of war, whether belligerent or neutral, but no acts of hostilities are to be committed either in the canal itself or in the sea to a distance of three miles from either end of it.
 "The entrances are not to be block aded. The stay of belligerent vessels of war or their prizes within the ports at either end is not to exceed twenty four hours, and belligerents are not to embark troops or munitions within the canal or it's ports.
 By using the Suez canal, Spain's vessels will be compelled to go only 7200 miles to reach Manila. The steaming radius of the Almirante Oquendo, Vizcaya and Infante Maria Teresa is 9700 miles, going at the rate of ten knots, and they, therefore, could not go the entire distance with out re-coaling. If necessary, they could take colliers along. None of Commodore Dewey's vessels has such a great steaming radius, and if they should be sent to the Mediterranean they would have to take colliers along and might be caught without coal in that sea.
 None of the members of the war board believe for an instant that Spain will attempt to retake the Phil ippines, notwithstanding the Suez ea- nal is open to her fleets. It was pointed out by an expert, with whom talked. that the withdrawal of, B .sut- ficient force from the Atlantic to at tempt the recapture of the Philippines would place not only Cuba and Porto Rico, but the Cananies and Spain it. self. at the mercy of the American warships on this coast
 It was more probable, he said, that the United States would send ships from the Pacific coast through the Suez canal to the Mediterranean to attack Spain's coast than it would be for the Madrid government to order its ships to re-take the Philippines, but either contingency he thought de- cidedly remote. @e

y In summer men selling crabs in Full
ton market handle them with a curious
sort Of wooden tongs, that work like
sugar topgs; but they don't need them
in winter, because then the crab, numb
with cold, doesn't bite, says the. New
York Sun. In nature the crab buries
itself in the mud or sand in the winter
and stays there through the season,
covered up. all but it's eyes, and possi-
bly, a very little OF its body. It gets
nc food there except such as NAV come
to it; its claws are almost, If not en-
tirely, covered up in the mud, but it
couldn't use them then if they were
mot. The crab in winter, however, is
fatter than in summer. Though it may
take little or no food, it does not wear
Itself away by exercise.
The crab is in the market the year
round. 1t is raked up out of the muo
in winter. 1t may then be handled
freely in the colder weather of winter.

s The crabs atthe aquarium, that dance

A Godsend Lufliin, of Tiiden, Me-,

Clergyman who christened him.
Godsenh's father, old Peleg Lufkin,,
owned about an the wild land in the
town. When he died he left his prop

whole fit to go to the first grandson
who should come into the world. At
that time none, of the boys were mar

fault, every one taking wife inside OF

father was, made. Six years after hi,

II think you'd better call him god

family"
The words spokemirl Jest were taken
in earnest by the Clergyman, who pro-
