OF THE CONFLICT =&, of the conditions in Spain, her in- ternal troubles are even greater than her foreign ones. It is more than likely that the defeat which we be- lieve will come will bring about revolution and anarchy in Spain. It is difficult to see how the dynasty can be maintained in view of the incom- petence:of Spain’s leading men. “I do not put much confidence in the Cabinet as the result of recent changes. No Cabinet could stand which would make overtures toward peace at this time. There must be one Department of State Is Already ARNUiCi- e on e percer pating the Closing of the Hostilities. But the Prospects Are That Spain Will aster of Manila. That effort will be made within the next few days. When we have defeated the Spanish fleet Spain’s friends in Europe may start a movement looking toward peace. It is certain that this Govern- ment will listen to no suggestions of peace which fall short of the loss to Spain of Cuba, Porto Rico and the Never Philippines.

Spanish Troops in Cuba Said to Num- ber One Hundred and Forty Thousand. CITY OF MEXICO, May 14.—Lead- ing Spanish residents have issued news from Havana, brought by the steamer Lafayette to Vera Cruz. Blanco has shown great energy In preparing for the expected siege by the American fleet and land forces. The city and forts are provisioned for three or four months. It is believed the mortality among the besiegers in the hot and rainy season will compel the Ameri- cans to raise the siege. Havana is now surrounded by en- trenchments for thirty miles. The troops in the garrison number 70,000 and a like number are in the interior fighting the insurgents. The condition of the reconcentrados in Havana grows steadily worse. The Spaniards ask them when their Yan- kee benefactors are coming to relieve them. The mortality is increasing among this wretched class, which has taken to begging for morsels of food. Nobody in Havana except a few higher officers knows that the Spanish fleet was annihilated at Manila, and the report is believed that the Americans were beaten there. Blanco allows no O000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000OOO guests were escorted through the great WILL teers, but it was considered best to call later.

It is believed in Havana that the campaign on the island will prove enormously fa- tal to the American troops and will be prolonged a year. Another account is that food supplies in Havana are good for a much less time than four months, and that Blanco is in a trap unless the Spanish fleet breaks the blockade to allow supplies to come in. The Havana people continue light- hearted and the theaters put on pieces ridiculing the American fleet. sl MUTINY IN THE RANKS OF NEVADA VOLUNTEERS. Captain Wright of Reno Arrested and Three Men Sent Back to Their Homes. CARSON, May 14.—Insubordination broke out in the rank of the Nevada volunteers and Captain Wright of Reno was arrested this morning. ‘Wright, upon being sent to drill the men, called an indignation meeting and protested against the temporary officers appoint- ed by Govérnor Sadler. A petition signed by about seventy men, asking the Governor that the company be per- mitted to select its own officers, is said to have been headed off by Major Cox, who is Sadler’s appointee; hence the meeting. A number of men refused to accom= pany the troops unless the officers were changed, but only three fell out of line when Governor Sadler visited the camp at 8:30 this morning. These three were permitted to return to their homes. The troops left to-night for Cheyenne, Wyoming. = A dispatch from Congressman Newlands announced that Nevada would, in all probability, be permitted to furnish another troop of cavalry or infantry.
