There is a feeling of anxiety over the possibility of an American attack upon some Spanish por Spanish begin to talk ot Santiago a naval station. A Dangerous Mission. Washington, June 11. — Lieut. H. S. Whitney, of: the Fourth artillery, who has been on a m ion for the govern- ment to Puerto Rico, has reported to the officials here and submitted im- portant information secured by him while on the island. Lieut. Whitney was formerly in the information de- partment of the adjutant general's of- fice here prior to his assignment to the dangerous mission from which he has just returned. Miss Barton Gets Permission, New York, June 11. — Some time ago Miss Clara Barton asked permis- sion of the proper authorities to es- tablish a Red Cross headquarters in each of the military camps of the United States. President McKinley referred the matter to Secretary Alg- er, and a letter has just been received in which the secretary says he saw no objection to the proposed plan and granted the desired permission, Spaniards Are Celebrating. Lima, Peru, June 11. — Spaniards here are celebrating as a result of re- ports that the Americans have been repulsed at Santiago with a loss of 1,500 killed and wounded, among them Capt. Philip, of the Texas. According to the reports received by the Span- iards the hero of the day was Gen. Lineras. Illinois Naval Reserves. Chicago, June 11.—Illinois sent her last detachment of naval reserves to the front. With this contingent, 1,066 men have been enlisted from this state. The detachment, consisting of 200, left via the Pennsylvania road for Norfolk, Va., where they will be placed on board the Newark for active service. Pardon for Hart.

Spanish Warships Said to Be Lurk- ing in That Vicinity. Newport News, Va., June 12.—A dis- patch just received from Fortress Monroe says: caused here last night shortly after 9 o'clock by a dispatch received from the signal station at Cape Henry stat- ing that Spanish warships were lurk- ing in that vicinity. A shorty while later a message was received from Washington instructing the command- ant of the fort to be on the alert. Re- ports as to the number of ships seem to conflict. A lieutenant who was seen after midnight said he had been informed that a Spanish battleship, two cruisers and a torpedo boat had been caught under the searchlight of Cape Henry steaming from a northerly direction. As soon as it was reported that the Enemy's Warships had been sighted there was great ac- tivity at the fort. The big search- light of the fort began to search the bay and signals were flashed to the cruiser Minneapolis, auxiliary cruiser Dixie and dynamite cruiser Buffalo, who are anchored off Old Point. Quarters were sounded and the crews hastily prepared the ships for action. The gunners took positions at their posts, where they were ordered to re- main during the night. The ships’ searchlights were kept playing on the waters. In the fort ammunition was hurried to the big guns and the troops ordered to their posts. Some of the of- ficers were with their families and buglers were dispatched for them. The men scurried out of the hotels half-dressed and hastened to the fort. In the camp of the Maryland troops orders were given for the men to sleep in their clothes with their guns close by. CHARLESTON’S MISSION Said to Be the Seizure of the Span- ish Ladrone Islands. Washington, June 12. — The state- ment coming from San Francisco to the effect that the real object of the Charleston’s voyage was the seizure of the Spanish Ladrone islands has small basis of truth in it. When it was de- cided to send the monitors Monterey and Manadnock clear across the Pa- cific from Mare Island to Manila it was well known that this could not be done without sending along colliers because of the insyfficient coal supply of the monitors. It Was not decne practical to tow the big ironclads the 4,000 miles of the voyage that would have to be traveled by them without coal, so it became necessary to find places in the Pacific where they could replenish their bunkers. <A study of the charts showed that there were several groups of islands lying be- tween Hawaii and the Philippines which might afford a harbor in which the colliers could lay alongside the monitors and fill up their coal bunk- ers. The officials do not deem it pru- dent to name the particular islands chosen for this purpose, but it is obvi- ous that being barred by neutrality laws from the possessions of neu- tral countries, the first recourse of the navy department would be to some of the Spanish islands such as the La- drones or the Carolines. Therefore, it is assumed that if the Charleston real- ly goes to one of the former islands it will be for the purpose of seizing in advance a suitable harbor for the us¢ of the monitors. AFTER RECRUITS. Officers of the. Thirteenth on Hand, and Will Begin Reeruiting. St. Paul, June 12.—Maj. Frederich of Red Wing, Lieut. Merrill of St. Paul and Capt. Corriston of Minneapolis, with a detail of twelve men, one from each company in the Thirteenth regi- ment, arrived from San Francisco to recruit the 300 men to fill out the com- plement of the regiment. They will open recruiting stations at the armories in St. Paul and .Minne- apolis and hope to have their men ready to start. by Monday evening. They may not be able to make quite as good a record as this, but they say they already have many men enlisted, and notices have been sent everywhere over the state. Lieut. Merrill will have charge of office in St. Paul and Capt. Corriston in Minneapolis, while Maj. Friedrich will supervise all the work. In ease sufficient men are not obtained here, some of the officers may visit St. Cloud, Stillwater and Red Wing. MUST GIVE IN. Spaniards Can Make No Serious Re- sistance in the Philippines. London, June 12.—The Shanghai cor- respondent of the Daily ‘Telegraph says: Advices from Hong Kong re- port that a serious resistance by the Spaniards who are pressed by the in- surgents and the Americans is out of the question. The Japanese are dis- cussing the desirability of buying the Philippines if the islands are in the market. Failing to purchase them they would prefer that the islands would become British. To Discuss the Philippines. Madrid, June 12.—It is reported that Germany will prepare a meeting of the European conference to discuss the question of the Philippines. An inter- view which the German ambassador, Count de Radowitz, has had with Duke Almedevar de Rio, minister of foreign affairs, has provoked general comment. An official dispatch from Gen. Blanco at Havana says the Spanish tropedo boat destroyer Terror is in Puerto Rican waters. School Beard Boycott. Sioux City, Iowa, June 12.—A boy- cott by the Sioux City board of edu- cation of non-union-made school sup- Intense excitement was {| WORK OF CONGRESS | Washington, June 6. — With no evi- dence of excitement and without inci- dent worthy of special mention, but with manifestations of deepest inter- est, the war revenue measure was passed by the senate Saturday even- ing at 7:05. A score or more of at- tempts were made to amend it, but only in three or four incidents were the efforts successful. A party effort was made to amend the bond section of the measure, but it was futile in every instance. The most notable amendment of the day was offered by Mr. Tillman, placing a duty of 10 cents per pound on all tea imported into the United States. The amendment cre- ated no debate and was adopted by a vote of 38 to 32. It is calculated by the senate experts that the duty, if it is finally enacted into law, will raise at least $10,000,000 a year and prob- ably more. An amendment offered by Mr. Chilton of Texas, a member of the finance committee, provides for a tax graduated according to prices upon all articles sold of patent rights or trade marks or names not open to “general use which are not otherwise taxed by the bill. Through an amendment offered by Mr. Lindsay of Kentucky the measure is not to place a stamp tax upon bundles of newspapers wholly or part- ly printed which weigh less than 100 pounds. A tax of 4 cents a barrel was placed on adulterated flour and a stamp tax of 1 cent entitling the hold- er to a seat in a palace or parlor car or berth in a sleeping car, the company selling the seat or berth being required to affix the stamp. On the passage of the measure every Republican voted in the affirmative, By parties the vote in favor of the measure was as fol- lows: Republicans, 39; Democrats, 7; Populists, 1; Silver Republicans, 1; t tal, $8. Against the bill the vote was: Derocrats, 20; Populists, 7; Silver Re- publicans, 1; total, 28. The Democrats who voted for the bill were Messrs. Caifery, Gorman, Lindsay, McEnery, Mitchell, Murphy and Turpie. The Populist was Mr. Kyle and Silver Re- publican was Mr. Mantle. * Washington, June 7.—Beyond the passage of an urgent deficiency Dill made necessary by the war with Spain the senate accomplished little. The de- ficiency measure carries appropriations for the war and navy establishments aggregating $17,745,000. These appro- pfidtions are in addition to the amounts to be carried later by the general de- ficiency bill. During the greater part of the session the measure providing for the taking of the twelfth and sub- sequent census was under considera- tion but no progress was made towards its completion. y In the House. = * After the revenue bill was sent to conference the session of the house to- day was devoted to routine business chiefly under suspension of the rules, a number of bills being passed. Ad- journment was taken pending the dis- posal of a measure providing a code of criminal law and proceedure for Alaska, 2 Washington, June 8.—Almost imme- diately after the senate convened con- sideration was resumed of the bill for the protection of the people of the In- dian Territory. After the reading and discussion of the measure, which occu- pied nearly three hours, it was passed. It provides for the allotment nm sev- eralty of certain lands to the Indians of the territory, the payment of inter- est claims to the Chickasaw Indians, and the ratification of the agreement effected with the Indians by the Dawes commission. The discussion of the census bill precipitated a civil ser- vice debate which had not been con- cluded when the senate adjourned. Urgent Deficiency Bill Passed. After disposing of the urgent wat deficiency bill as passed with amend- ments by the senate the house consid- ered the conference report upon the sundry civil bill. The report, so far as it embodied agreements, was adopted, and the house then began voting sev- erally upon the senate amendments upon which no agreement had been reached in conference. Of these there are thirty-five. The house considered eight of these, acting favorably upon three and rejecting five. The house adjourned pending the discussion of a measure to enable volunteer soldiers to vote at congressional elections dur- ing the war. Washington, June 9.—A bill provid- ing for the taking of the twelfth cen- sus was passed by the senate after a debate which occupied the greater part of three days. Several weeks ago a census bill was presented by the committee having the matter in charge but the matter was so unsatisfactory that it was recommitted to the com- mittee. The bill passed was intro- duced in lieu of that which was recom- mitted, and as slightly amended, re- ceived the unanimous support of the senate. Under it, if it should become a law, a director of the census, an as- sistant director and five expert statis- ticians will be appointed immediately to make the preliminary arrangements for taking the census of 1900 in ac- cordance with the outline presented in the bill. A determined effort was made to provide that the employes of the census bureau should be examined and certified by the civil service com- mission, but it failed by a vote of 18 to 31. A provision was inserted that not more than two-thirds of the super- visors and enumerators should belong to one political party. In the House. The house disposed of the senate amendments of the sundry civil bill and agreed to further conference. The conference report upon the postoftice appropriation bill was adopted without debate and the house proceeded to con- plies has been requested by the trades and labor assembly here. The board will announce its decision at the next meeting. Madrid, June 12. — A dispatch from Teneriffe announces that a British yes- sel has arrived to take off British res- idents, who are leaving for fear of thé arrival of an American fleet, sider the bill to provide for participa- tions of vclunteer soldiers in congres- sional elections. Adjournment was taken pending disposal and it will come up tomorrow. Washington, June i0. — After five hours devoted to the consideration of the bill authorizing volunteer soldiers to vote in congressional elections tho conference. on the war revenue bill. Was presented to the house. Consid- eration was interrupted until 8 o'clock in the evening, when the report was taken up again, and after three hours’ debate, covering a wide range of sub- jects and somesensational features, it was voted upon and adopted—l54 to 107. The election measure will be disposed of to-day immediately after the meeting of the house. Mr. Pierce of Tennessee made a vigorous attack upon the prosecution of the war and the alleged unwarranted delay in send- ing relief to Gubans. A sensational feature was the clash between Mr. Grosvenor and Mr. Swanson of Vir- ginia, growing out of the former’s at- tack upon the latter’s speech in a crit- icism of the revenue Dill. The Ha- waiian annexationists made a strong fight to get the election bill out of the way to prevent its going over as priy- ileged, and likely to postpone another day their efforts to secure considera- tion of the annexation resolution. aE Ls “ IN THE SENATE. Senator Carter Jumps on Ship Own- ers of the Pacific Coast. At the session of the senate Mr. Carter of Montana, in connection with the rejection by the government of the steamship Centennial as a transport, made some ugly charges against the ship owners of the Pacific coast. He said they had been endeavoring to hold up the government and compel it to pay inordinate and _ extortionate charges for ships to be used to trans- port troops to the Philippines. Mr. Perkins of California denied the state- ments of Mr. Carter, declaring that the vessel owners of San Francisco had placed their ships at the disposal of the government at a rate fully 50 per cent less than they usually re- ceived for them. Mr. Lodge of Massa- chusetts made some sensational dis- closures concerning the disposition of tbe money appropriated by congress a short time ago in payment of a claim of the book concern of the Methodist Episcopal Church South, He intro- duced a resolution directmg the claims committee to make ay investigation pf the matter and report to the senae what, if any, action could be taker. The ‘omnibus claim _ Dill," carrying something over $9,000,000, forty pri- vate peigion bills and several meas- ures from the general calendar were passed, ay je Pd it es eee Washington, June 11.—Shortly after 4 o'clock in the afternoon the confer- ence report on the war revenue bill Was agreed to by the senate after a discussion lasting four hours. The de- bate upon the measure was without special interest and was entirely de- void of acrimonious features. It was a foregone conclusion that the report would be agreed to, and the only question of interest involved was how soon a yote could be reached. The de- bate ihdicated generally that the bill, fis agreed upon by the conferees, was reasonably satisfactory to Serybody, except as to the bond provision. The votes cast against the adoption of the report reflected the opinions of those senators who are opposed to any in- crease in the interest-bearing debt of the country. The report was agreed to by the decisive vote of 43 to 22, Every Republican voted for the measure, and their votes were supple- infented by 8 Democrats, 1 Silver Re- publican and 1 Populist. The Demo- erats who voted for the report were Messrs. Caffery, Gorman, Lindsay, McEnery, Mitchell, Morgan, Murphy and Turpie; the Silver Republican was Mr. Mantle and the Populist was Mr, Kyle. The yote against the measure was cast by 16 Democrats, 3 Silver Repub- licans and 8 Populists. As soon as the engrossed bill can be signed by the presiding officers of the two branches of congress it will be sent to the pres- ident. Just at the close of the session a bit- ter personal discussion was precipi- tated by Mr. Butler, who attacked Mr. Kyle for having voted for the issuance of bonds. Mr. Butler, speaking as the chairman of the Populist national com- mittee, officially declared that Mr. Kyle did not represent the Populist party. Mr. Kyle replied warmly, say- ing that he was responsible for his po- litical actions, not to Mr. Butler, but to his conscience and to his constit- uents. Subsequently he denounced as “intentional and malicious falsehoods” Some statements made about him by Mr. Pettigrew. ae IN THE HOUSE. Agreement eRached Regarding the Hawaliian Resolution, The feature of yesterday's session of the house was the securing of an agreement to consider and vote upon the Newland resolution to annex Hawaii. Beginning to-day, the debate will proceed until 5 o’clock next Wednesday afternoon, when a_ vote will be taken. The annexationists came determined to force considera- tion and for three hours the opposition filibustered. Consideration of the res- olutions could have beer prevented, as, under the rules, a recess until the evening pension session necessarily would have been taken at 5 o'clock, but it was plain that the annexation- ists would win their victory to-day. Realizing this, and knowing the reso- lutions would pass and go to the coun- try, involving a prominent issue, the opposition treated for liberal debate, and their demands were readily grant- ed. Eight Democrats voted with the annexationists in the movement to force consideration of the resolutions, they being Messrs. Berry of Kentucky, Devries of California, Livingston of Georgia, Brucker of Michigan, Cuin- mings of New York, Sulzer of New York, Vohslage of New York and Cockran of Missouri. It is claimed at least twenty Democrats will favor the passage of the resolutions. The bill to enable volunteer soldiers to vote at congressional elections was passed and a number of minor meas- ures chiefiy of a private nature, were considered.
