ion embodied practically all of the in formation which the department pos sessed. He said further that no one at this moment could accurately forecast the outcome of the insurrection.
 The present intention is to keep the third division of the fleet at Key West so there maybe an adequate force within five hours sailing of Havana This precautlon is deemed essential, not that there is any in formation in the possession of the state department to the effect that an outbreak is impending at Havana. but there is much doubt as to the actual state of mind of the laborers in Cuba The extent to which politics may enter into the situation also is problematical
 With the weapons already in poss- ession of the Cuban army, and those soon to be sent them from the United States arsenals. it is believed the soldiers will be amply equipped to deal with the scantily armed insurrectos, many of whom are said to possess no weapons save machetes and ancient fowling pieces and sporting rifles stolen from plantations for which no ammunition can be obtained
 The real essential, in the opinion of general staff officers, is cavalry necessary to run down the exceedingly active insurrectos, for the most part mounted on stock communicated from plantations. 1t is believed General Monteagudo's first effort therefore will be to increase the number of mounted rurales.
 A disconcerting suggestion from an army officer with wide Cuban expert. ence was that when closely pursued, General Estenoz would instruct his black followers to break into small bands and surrender themselves to the American marines assigned to guard the plantations. As it might be re- garded a certainty that General Mon teagudo would summarily hang or shoot all insurreetos that fell into his hands, an American marine officer would feel embarrassed in refusing to accept the surrender of such insur- rectOs

 Rear Admiral Hutch l. Cone, of the bureau of construction of the navy department; Commissioner of Naviga- ton Eugene T Chamberlain and others argued for a standard for construction of American ships.

CANAL BOND ISSUE
 HAS BEEN EXPENDED
LAST OF FUND FROM REGENT ISSUE HAS BEEN PAID OUT
 FOR WORK oN CANAL.

Washington, June 6.-The entire proceeds of the Panama canal bonds of 1861, issued less than year ago, have been spent The last of the loan was wiped out today by the progress of the waterway that will sever the American continent Off cials of the treasury do not contem- plate issuing any more canal bonds during the present administration.
 Secretary MaeYeagh today dis bursed $1,000.000 for the construction of the ditch. An amount not only exhausted the proceeds of the bonds and their premiams, but in addition deducted S559,0U0 from the general fund of the treasury.
 The construction of the waterway, like the ordinary expenses of the government, it is expected, will be borne by the receipts from customs and internal revenue for months to come. If necessary, Secretary Mac Yeagh could issue $136, 6,3o7 900 in ca- nal bonds at once. That amount has already been spent out of the general fund and by act of congress is reim- bursable by bonds. The total cost of the waterway, it isf estimated, vii be $s75,200.9S0 Of this S2T4, 4,90S,D0C has been expended to date. %

 There were riotious scenes when the plate glass door of one shop was shattered while 800 women screamed approval. In the three or four other shops militant housewives attacked customers. knocking from their hands parcels of meat and trampling upon them. Dealers were warned against continuing offering meat for sale. A canvas Of the district tonight disclosed that eight shops had obeyed the orders of the housewives, removing all meat and promising not to make any further sales until they can do so at lower prices.
 The scenes of disorder were limited to two sections in Brooklyn, which are foreign quarters.

MONTEAGUDO
 HAS FAILED
HIS ELABORATE PLANS FOR GU BAN CAMPAIGN HAS PROVEN
 ITSELF lMPRAcTICABLE.
Artillery and Infantry Cannot oper- ate in Mountains-American Ma rlnes Win Guard Plantations
 of Foreigners.

Havana. June Military opera tions ill the province of Oriente have been brought to a complete halt due to the apparent failure of General Monteagudos original plan of cam paign, which comprehended simul- taneous advance intol the territory occupied by the insurgents of heavy columns of infantry. accompanied by artillery and rural cavalry. The mountain roads appear to make such tactics impossible
 General Monteagudo now depends upon reinforcing his regular organ ization with plantation guards who have been released from duty by the arrival of American marines, espe- cially in the vicinity of Guantanamo City. dividing his forces into smaller units and increasing them by bodies of regular troops, mostly mounted, winch have been recruited in the prov ince and are familiar with the scene of the operations. This will involve considerable delay before the troops can be so disposed as to compel the insurgents to accept combat.
 The military situation closely re- sembles that in 1S979S. when small bodies of Cuban patriots, operating in the same locality. long successfully evaded pursuit by much larger bod ies of Spanish regulars. The diffi- eulty of the military operations has been greatly increased because of tor rental rains now prevalent in large part of the island.
 Apprehension in Havana, which yesterday was somewhat allayed, was increased tonight by persistent ru-
 mors that bands of armed negroes i had appeared in many places iii the immediate vicinity of the capital De- tachments of tho national police harmed with riiics,s fissI3esi .tss-s srss' sat
 skirts of the city. but up to the pres
 ent there is apparently no substantial
 cause for alarm.
 Through all parts of the island loy- al citizens are arming, and organ ! iging volunteer corps. Assistant Sec retary of the Interior Vanadama an nounced tonight that it was the duty of all whites to arm themselves with cut awaiting the formality necessary to secure permits from the govern ment. Twenty five additional soi- diers have been ordered from Camp Columbia to reinforce the strong guard of the palace.
 The situation was discussed at a cabinet meeting today, after which Secretary of State Sanguily express ed the opinion that the crisis waa most grave, but that he had full con- tidence that the government was SUD- ported loyally by the mass of the Cuban people and would soon prove it's ability to crush the insurreclfon.
 Great alarm continues at Santiago, where preparations are being made to defend the city American and other foreign property owners esti- mate that nearly l.500 troops are needed to protect the plantations and mines. Only unimportant skirmishes are reported Tranquility is report cd elsewhere. In Oriente suspension orA constitutional guarantees was pro- cl~imed this morning.

June 6-For the pre- sent at least the four battleships com prising the fourth division of the Atlantic fleet, which are due to arrive in Guantanamo Bay tomorrow with the gunboat Paducah lying off Daiquiri, will constitute all of the United States naval force to be assembled in Cuban waters.
 The state department today signi- fled its satisfaction with that part of the naval program and If there should be aE change involving the sending of more ships to Cuba it must follow developments in the situation not now expected.

 The secretary told Mr. Sulzer that the reports which he had given to the press regarding the Cuban insurrect.
