The officers and crew were on the qui vive, because for several days they had been hoping to lure to a chase the Spanish gunboat of boasted prowess and twenty-two knots speed that inhabits Havana harbor.

The men on the | torpedo-boat now stopped breathing | entirely, after the screeching had| ceased, fearful even that it might at- tract the aim of the enemy’s gun.

Enlists at Tacoma With a Com- pany That Will Go to the Philippines. Visitors to the Camp Find the Young Man Engaged in Washing Dishes, Spectal Dispatch to The Call. TACOMA, May 5.—The branch of the | Vanderbilt family living in Tacoma has shown its patriotism. William Howard Vanderbilt, a cousin of Cornelius and William K. Vanderbilt, has enlisted as a private in Company C, and in a few days will be mustered into the ser- | vice of the United States. With other ‘Washington soldiers he expects to be sent to San Francisco and thence to | the Philippine Islands. Howard Vanderbilt is 21 years old | and six feet tall, and has a perfect physique. His grandfather was Jacob Vanderbilt of New York. His father is Jacob Vanderbilt, second cashier of the Metropolitan Savings Bank here, owned by George Vanderbilt of New York. Young Vanderbilt has been am- | bitious to see military life for several | years, but would not yoin the army nor | seek entrance at the lowest point while he thought there was no active service | in sight. When the twelve companies, comprising the Washington regiment, marched through Tacoma last Sunday his military enthusiasm revived and he | determined to enlist. After much per- | suasion his father consented. On Wednesday young Vanderbilt left | his luxurious home and started for | Camp Rodgers, accompanied by friends. | Company C of Tacoma was found | to have one vacancy. He quickly en- iisted, and to-day visitors to the camp found this scion of the house of Van- derbilt appareled in an ill-fitting uni- | form and washing dishes. It had fallen to his lot to-day to join the company mess squad. ! For several years the National Guard | of ‘Washington has held no annual en- | campment, for financial reasons. The | reglment contains many recruits of a | year's service or less, and is conse- | quently somewhat “green” as to tac- | tics and discipline. It is customary when the Governor appears at camp to | “call out the guard” as a mark of cour- | tesy, which order is repeated from sen- tinel to sentinel until it reaches head- quarters, or the officer of the day, when the guard turns out and presents arms. When Governor Rodgers appeared at the camp on Wednesday the order to “turn out guard for the Governor” was repeated by the sentinels and the guard speedily turned out. The Governor, | however, wished no ceremonial and di- rected the first sentinel to “never mind the guard.” This direction was mis- understood, with the result that the guard of forty-eight men stood lined up and presenting arms for twenty minutes, while Governor Rodgers was strolling about at the further end of the camp. This is one of the many ludicrous in- | cldents at- Camp Rodgers that have caused much merriment to those fa- miliar with military rules.

Some Cases of Shocking Brutality and Murder on the Part of the Mad Rioters. Special Dispatch to The Call ROME, May 6.—There were renewed bread riots at Pavia yesterday even- ing. The rioters stretched chains across the streets, in order to prevent cavalry charges. Several soldiers and civillans were injured. A riotous mob surround- ed a detachment of troops at Sesyo Fiorintino and the soldiers fired a vol- ley, killing three of their assailants and wounding four others. There were further disorders at Pra- to, ten miles northwest of Florence, to- day. The extension of the bread riots to Central and Northern Italy is regarded as an extremely serious feature of the case, because the people in that section are more enlightened and better edu- cated and there will be great difficulty Some of the worst rioting has oc- curred at Pavia. Among the killed is a student, a son of Signor Missi, vice- president of the Chamber of Deputies. The news of this has caused trouble at Milan, Signor Missi being very pop- ular there. A conflict occurred between the troops and rioters and one was killed on each side and many injured. At Pralo and Florence there has been The latter ecity has been occupied by the troops. It is believed that the censorship stops the worst news. On Thursday a savage scene was wit- nessed at Murgie-Minervino in Cala- bria. The rioters laid siege to a mill, whereupon the miller fiung money into the crowd and begged that his life be spared. The mob shouted back, “It is not your money, but your skin we want.” The mill was then stormed and the miller and his wife were bru- tally killed. A physician who appeared at a neigh- boring window to protest against the brutality also fell a victim to the mob, and his wife, who was lying ill, died of fright. Another townsman was stabbed and beaten with hatchets until he died. e g S THIS IS RATHER AN ABSURD YARN. LONDON, May 6.—"he Exchange Telegram Company asserts on the highest authority that the United States dispatch-boat Hugh McCul- loch, which reached Mirs Bay, near Hongkong, a few days ago, heard of the victory of Dewey's squadron and hurried back to Manila for dispatches. It is further said that the MecCulloch cannot get back to Hongkong until to- morrow, when she is expected to have the most important news. ——— Escorting Coal-Laden Barks. PORT AU PRINCE, Hayti, May 6.— The German steamer Valdivia, from Hamburg, on March 21 for St. Thomas, where she arrived on April 11, has put into Aux Cayes, on south coast of Hayti. She reports having met a Brit- ish warship escorting westward six barks, nationality unknown, apparently laden with coal. On April 26 cannonad- ing was heard seaward from Jerimie, Haytl, a port situated 125 miles west of I this place. SPAIN'S MOSQUITO FLEET ABOUT CUBA Hidden in Bays and Coves of the Island Are Little Gunboats Afraid of Our Ships. Hidden somewhere in the many bays and sheltered coves of the Cuban coast lie about thirty-four Spanish gunboats and steam launches, ranging in dis- placement from fifteen to 100 tons. Al- together the Spanish fleet in Cuban waters number fifty-eight craft of all descriptions, from 8090 tons down to | fifteen tons, and none of the larger [vessels, of which there are but two, | are equal in speed and armament ‘to | the smallest American cruisers. The gunboats are literally only mosquito gunboats, unable to venture out of sight of land, as they carry but a small supply of coal and are, for the most part, slow. The only dangerous ves- sels in the entire lot are apparently the seven torpedo gunboats, provided their speed and efficiency have beenkept up since their trial trips, and of this there is a reasonable doubt. The following table shows the strength and details of the Spanish navy which, at last accounts, was credited to Cuban waters: NAME, Type. | Bullt. | Tons. Armament.

The 4.7-inch guns are not rapid-firers like the 5 and 4 inch guns on our fleet, and besides their | comparatively insignificant weight of | shot and range they can only deliver “ a third the number of shots which the | American 4 and 5 inch guns can dis- | charge in the same given time.

The surrender or destruction of this mosquito fleet can only be the question of a very short time, as the coal sup- ply is daily becoming less and the blockade prevents landing of more fuel. ‘Without it the gunboats are helpless and must fall an easy prey to the num- erous auxiliary gunboats fitting out on the Atlantic coast, consisting of speedy steam yachts protected against injury from machine gun fire and armed with quick-firing Hotchkiss guns.

Epecial Dispatch to The Call. NEW YORK, May-6.—A Washington special to the Herald says: It has been decided to divide the regular and volunteer armies of the United States into seven corps, numbering from one to seven inclusive. As soon as the mustering in of the volunteer army is | completed the War Department will designate the corps and send them un- der commanders to six points of mob- ilization, the most northern of which will be Hempstead Plains, Lond Isl- and. Most of the troops will be sent | South, as Surgeon-General Sternberg | has advised that all northern soldiers | be allowed to get acclimatized to the | Southern climate of the United States | before they are sent into the intense | heat which will be experienced while fighting in Cuba. The difficult task of assigning troops to brigades, divisions and corps has not | yet been completed, but a general out- line of a statement has been made by Adjutant-General Corbin and his as- sistant, Brigadier-General Schwan. It is the purpose of the department to mobilize about 30,000 troops in the near vicinity of Washington, in order that | they may be in a position to be im- mediately sent to the South. Major- | General Breckinridge, who has seen several years of active service, will, in | all probability, command the troops situated at the capital. Although it is not possible to defi- nitely state who the other corps com- manders will be, I have been told on good authority that these generals will | be selected by the department: Major- Generals Brooke, Merritt, Breckinridge, Otis, Wilson, Shafter and probably Cop- pinger. As will be seen all of these officers are in the regular service, ex- cept General Wilson, who was appoint- ed from civil life. General Joseph Wheeler will, with- out doubt, be given command of the cavalry doing service in Cuba. Gen. eral Fitzhugh Lee will certainly see actual service against the Spaniards in Cuba and will, in au probability, command the immunes that will re- leve the regular army during the rainy season. tenth relay, Bunt Smith. —————————— .

The London report that the continen- tal powers were seeking to have Eng- land join them in intervention is lack- ing in verification in official and dip- lomatic quarters here. The State De- partment has received no suggestion of such intervention and does not believe it is contemplated. The foreign rep- resentatives here, Including those of Great Britain, France, Germany and | Russia, meet these reports with spe- cific denials and declare that interven- | tion is not being discussed in any way at the present time. These officials have been fully conversant with all previous moves toward intervention and they doubtless would be aware if | such a move was on foot at present. The utterance of Emperor Willlam before the Reichstag to-day confirmed what the German officials here have maintained from the first, namely, that Germany would observe strict neutral- ity, even though no decree of neutral- ity was issued. Russian officials take | the same view as to the purpose of | Russia to keep out of any intervention | which would be inimical to the. United | States. - The French authorities here | do not consider intervention a live| question at present, and since France | issued her decree of neutrality, the French officials dismiss reports that France will participate in intervention. The British officlals have received no word concerning recent movements for intervention and they consider such moves as quite inoppgortune under exist- ing circumstances. A leading mem- ber of the diplomatic corps said to- | day: ““What could we intervene about? It could not be because the United States had occupied the Philippines, because we do not know yet that the Philip- pines are occupied. It could not be because Porto Rico may be occupied, for we have no official information yet that any movement against that isl- and is contemplated. In fact, even if continental Europe desires to inter- vene it has no facts before it thus far on which to base intervention.” The German Embassy has been re- enforced by the arrival of Captain von Rebur of the Imperial German navy, who becomes naval attache of the Em- bassy here. He called at the Navy Department to-day, wearing the unl- form and chapeau of the German navy. He presented credentials from the Ger- man admiralty, which will insure him every proper facility for making ob- servations. The German Government thus will have Count von Goeltzen to make military observations and Cap- tain von Rebur for naval observations. TRANSPORTING THE MAILS Argument in Senate on the Pettigrew Amend- ment. It Is Proposed to Reduce the Rates Paid Railroads 20 Per Cent. Passage of the Bill to Increase the Number of Surgeons in the Regular Army. Special Dispatch to The Call. Call Office, Riggs House, ‘Washington, May 6. In the Senate to-day a bill granting the Santa Fé and Grand Canyon Rail- road Company right of way through the Grand Canyon forest reservation in Northern Arizona was passed. In requesting a conference upon a pension bill Gallinger of New Hamp- shire, chairman of the Pension Com- mittee, said that the House had tac- itly adopted a rule that in cases where the widow of a general officer had no pensionable status in the Pen- | ing $30 a month would be granted, but | in such cases where a pension was al- ready being received, the pension might be increased to $50 a month. Gallin- ger made the statement he said, in order that the Senate might realize the futility of pressing for pensions of $76 or $100 a month. = The consideration of the postoffice appropriation bill resumed, the pending question being the amendment offered yesterday by Pettigrew of South Da- kota, providing for a reduction of 20 per cent in the amount paid to rail- roads for the transportation of mails. Quay said that the adoption of Pet- tigrew’'s amendment would result in re- ducing the compensation of the rail- roads $6,000,000 without any evidence as to the results or righteousness of the action. He maintained that the in- vestigation authorized by the pending bill ought to be made before any ac- tion was taken. Pettigrew maintained in the course of an analysis of the mail and express statistics that the Government paild ten times as much for transportation of the mails as the express companies paid for the transportation of their matter. Faulkner of West Virginia presented a strong argument against the Petti- grew amendment. He declared that it would destroy many of the railroads in his own State, fully one-third of those in the Southern States and many throughout the country. Quay moved that when the Senate adjourn to-day it be to meet on Mon- day next. The motion was agreed to. Unanimous consent was then given that the final vote on the bill should be taken before adjournment on Monday. Hawley of Connecticut, chairman of the Military Affairs Committee, pre- sented the House bill to increase the number of surgeons in the United States army by fifteen and in emer- gencies giving the Secretary of War authority to appoint as many contract surgeons as may be necessary, the sal- ary of each not to exceed $150 a month. The bill was passed. Cannon of Utah secured the adoption of a resolution directing the Committee on Manufactures to adulterationof food articles by manu- facturers.
