Cor W. J. Bryan has named his regiment the ‘‘Silver Battalion.”’ It ig said that before they leave home the members will have their pictures “took”? wearing crowns of thorns and crosses of gold. Tux “responsible sources’? in- forms the world that large numbers of the Spanish volunteers are now deserting their ranks and joining the Cubans. Up to this date over 5,000 have been added to Gomez and Gar- forces from this source alone. ———_ “SUNEAST the bead which wears a crown.’’ The czar finds that the nibilists are upon his trail and that the spot upon which he was to stand during an important cere- mony had been mined. But for the discovery by the police, the aesign would have been carried out, This is the tale told by the secret policey which possibly had some interest of their own to serve, ———— Tuere is much laughter at the aim of the Spanish, and it is a good good thing for our ships that the Spanish gunners are poor marksmen. When one of their shots do hit the the influence of the missile is visible. For instance, the Massachusetts had a couple of her 13-inch guns knocked out of position by one of the Spanish balls, Itis a fact that a 10 or 12- inch shot does make a bad impres: sion when it does strike. ‘Tux Philippine Islands have de. veloped another hero, one ‘native to the manor — born’’—Aguinaldo Since Dewey mastered the sca and the forts, Aguivaldo bas whipped everything he has come across on the land. He is cvilently a man of brains and courage, and controls his forces as well as others in less flerce latitudes. Dewey laid down the law that barbarous warfare should not be indulged in, and the power of Agui- naldo over his men has been sufli- cient to secure its «bservance, Gen. Merritt will lose much of military honor io that part of the world if he does not ‘get » move ov him.” He will probably leave the United States about the same time Camara syils for West Indies, rests Iv appears that the British news- papers have been giving Germany credit for bad intentions towards the United States in the matter of our war with Spain, They have been charging the Germans with acts in- 1 to us, and designs upot Philippines. The state department says that ic understands every move on the part of Germany, and is satis- fied that Germany will maintain a strict neutrality in all her relations to the war, The Germans will pro- TAR, |tect their citizens in any part of the world ad it is entirely proper that they should be prepared to do so. There is to be no intervention in our affairs. They know well enough that Spain ought to be roundly thrashed, as well as they know she ought to be punished for the dastard- ly act of wrecking the Maine. Gexerat Mrnnitr now hopes to get away to Manila with the next ex- | pedition, which may not sail before July 1, General Merritt bas dis- played evidences of insubordination that would have been punished by the guard house ia a less prominent man, but in his case it has been dure for reasons that can guess. He has refused to go to Manila unless he could have as many troops 43 be wanted, and further- more, he has demanded the right to select his troops. Also he did not go with the first expedition as he ought to have done, but is now lag- ging bebind and will not be in Max nila before about the the first of August. It isto be hoped that the honor of receiving the surrender of Manila and of raising the stars and stripes over the Philippines will fall to Admiral Dewey. probable that long before General Merrit reaches Manila that Admiral Dewey will be in possession of the en- no outsider It is more than city, and will be acting military gov- ernor of the Philippine Ber few people appre the wegnitude of the armada that is now before Santisgo and other adjacent Coban pots. The fleet that con- veyed General Shafter and his army consisted of 43 transports, escorted by a squadron of 16 war vessels, vessels in all, the largest American leet that was ever together. Aboard this armada were 17,000 soldlers and 5,000 sailors, besides horses, mules, ammunition, heavy and light artillery and army supplies of every possible kind, e It must furthermore be remembered that it has only been sixty days since was declared ‘That in that time it has not only been necessary to mobilize the army, but it bas heen necessary to manufacture the greater part of the equipments. war In sixty days an army of 278,000 men has been created and equipped and nearly 25,000 of the troops have now landed, or soon will do so, upon Cuba and the spectively, Philippinea re The record made by the war department thus far bas no par- allel in history for the immensity of the work actually accomplished in so short a tir (HE GROWTH OF PUBLIC § TIM rr Sixty days ago there could hardly be found in this whole country a newspaper that advocated the cap. ture and retention of the Philippines.

In every portion of the United States public opinion is rapidly ery: allizing in favor of the retention permanently of every foot of termtory that shall be in our possession when Spain sues for peace. From the pulpit and the press, from the workshop and the bank, from the tion and the halls of congress comes land made political conven- the demand that every sacred by the tread of an American soldier shall be dedicated to Ameri- can freedom. And yet,the birth of this new public opinion dates from the battle of Manila on May 1. Sixty days hence, what will be the demands of public sentiment, when the stars and stripes, all probabi will wave over Hawaii,! the P| pine, the Carolines, the Ladrones, the Sulus, Cuba and Porto Ricof Every one of those islands may have been christened with American blood or have becn made famous by some deed of courage and daring. Does anyone imagine that when that glor- ious day sha!l come, that the Ameri- can people will meekly surrender the fruits of victory or that the blessings of freedom will be denied to those people who have been fortunate enough to have lived but a few days even under the shade of Old Glory?

The dynamite steamer Vesuvius has been a long time coming, but she seems to have arrived at last. Her work off the entrance to Santisgo harbor demonstrates that her pneu matic dynamite guns are as destruc- tive as her most enthusiastic cham- pions declared they would be, Her guns are of 15-inch caliber and throw 100 pounds of gun cotton a distance of 2's: miles. When the charge is increased io 500 pounds of gun cotton, the guns have an effect- ive range of one mile, Judging from her destructive work during her ini- tial trial off Santiago, it is apparent that as soon as Lieut. Hobson and his heroes are removed from Castle Morro, Rear Admiral Sampson may entirely destroy the fort in a single night by turning the silent but death deating guns of the Vesuvius upon it The Vesuvius is built for quick action, for striking a blow unexpect- edly and getting away before the enemy knows what has happened. She has a speed of 21.4 knots and can skim the waves like @ bird. Her description in a technical way Dimensions, length on water line, 52 fect; beam, 26 feet 6 inches «raft, 10 feet 1 inch; d 29 tons. She has two propellers driven by vertical triple expansion engines. Her horse power is 3,794; coal capacity, 152 tons. In addi- tion to her three joch dynamite 1 guns, she carries three three-pounder rapid-fire guos. Her crew consists of six officers and 64 men. She was built by the Cramps at ao expense of $350,000. Her keel was laid 1 nd the launching took place in 188%, The Vesuvius may revolu- tionize naval warfare as thoroughly as did the union Monitor and the confederate Merrimac, BOB BLANKS TRIAL, It is Now Set for July Sih Will Take The Lexington military company has been in readiness for several days to go to Mayfield to protect Bob Blanks, the rapist.
