W. T. SAMPSON.” LIEUTENANT HOBSON HAS WON THE REWARD So He Will Get the Recognition Ac- corded Cushing and Be Advanced. WASHINGTON. June 11.—The only subject for an official bulletin to-day at the Navy Department was Hobson’s glorious feat in bottling up the Span- uadron with the hull of the Mer- ‘With the frankness and candor peculiar to the man, Admiral Sampson withheld no credit from Hobson for either the execution or projection of a well-worked out scheme to which the constructor was entitled, and he has cleared away the small cloud of dis- satisfaction that had shown itself among a few of the line officers because of the selection of a staff officer in the person of Hobson to conduct the des- | perate enterprise.

A consultation—of the records of the | Navy Department shows that the re- cognition accorded Cushing was in his advancement one full grade, that is, from the rank of lieutenant, which he had when he took his little boat up to the Albermarle, to the rank of lieu- tenant commander.

He said that in 1881 he asked that a powerful squadron be sent to the Phil- ippines, and that the other defenses of the islands be increased. He later, during the critical relations with the United States, informed his Govern- ment that an American squadron was about to appear at Manila, and again asked for several fronclads and other war vessels. The Government wired him May 12, 1897, that he need not fear a war with the United States and that he could return to Spain, but on March 12, 1898, he received another telegram announc- ing that war was probable between the United States and Spain, and instruct- ing him to prepare for the defense of the Philippines, “but,” said the speak- er, “what means of defense had I, when everything I had requested since 1881 had been refused? I know I ought not to divulge this matter in the interest of Spain.” At this point a Senator cried: moment has come to say all.” General Rivera, continuing, declared that the Spanish squadron in the Phil- ippines, owing to lack of means of de- lense, was foredoomed to perish. Af- ‘er dealaring that a native army in ithe Philippines was absolutely neces- sary, as Epropeans could not survive the climate and the attendant diseases, he spoke of the agreement with the rebels by which the chief, Aguinaldo, undertook to submit, if the Government would give a certain sum to the widows and orphans of the insurgents. A tenth part of this sum was given to Agui- naldo, ‘who undertook to distribute it. General Rivera concluded by declar- ing that he would give up the cross ‘with which he was decorated if the ‘thamber did not think him worthy of it. 4 Senor Romero Giron, the Minister of the Colonies, made a reply, praising General Primero de Rivera's service and at the same time assuring the “The chamber that the Government was working incessantly to prevent the country’s woes from increasing, which was to be feared. The debate then ended. RAIN FALLING DAILY IN THE GULF REGION Wet Weather Will Now Be the Rule Until the Coming of Autumn. Copyrighted, 15%, by James Gordon Bennett. KEY WEST, June 11.—The rainy sea- son seems to havefinally set in through- out the gulf region. It has been an unusually dry season up to now, the oldest inhab!tants and the natives de- clare, but yesterday the spell was broken by a downpour that turned the dusty streets of Key West into rivers and rain has been coming down ever since, with brief glimpses of sunshine. Every day from this time until fall wet weather will be the rule, with occa- sional squalls and hurricanes that are features of the West Indlan region dur- ing the summer months. In Cuba the rainy season really be- gan two or three weeks ago, but the rain did not extend beyond the borders of the island. Boats cruising along the Cuban coast have at times been unable although the sun was shining down on the boats’ decks. Every morning and every evening there has been heavy rain, accompanied by lightning.. The rainy season has been one of the things most dreaded in’connection with the Cuban invasion, but for some time it looked as if there Wwas not going to be much rain all dur- ing the summer, owing to its long delay in beginning. — Necessitates a New Base. ‘Copyrighted, 184, by James Gordon Bennett.

NEW ORLEANS, June 11.—The Louisiana State Board of Health has been informed by Dr. H. R. Carter of the United States Marine Hospital service that the Fontainbleau camp, near Pascagoula, is now open for the reception of yellow fever patients. A telegram was received to-night from Dr. Gill. Health Officer of Missis- sippi, announcin~ that there was a sus- picious case of fever at Bonds, Miss., a small station on the Gulf and Ship land road, fifteen miles rorth of Mc- Henry. In cons2quence of this dispatch the board decided to place inspectors on the trains, who will stop all passengers from infected districts. The town of McHenry is quarantined in a most rigid manner. A gentleman and his wife attempted to leave the place last night. Dr. Haralson, the State Health Officer in charge, imme- diately disinfected himself, changed his closhing and went in pursuit and brought the refugees back. WASHINGTON, June 11. — Reports received to-day by Surgeon-General Wyman indicate energetic measures are being resorted to by the representa- tives of the Marine Hospital Service at McHenry to stamp out yellow fever at that place and to prevent its spreading. Surgeon Murray reports that a guard of twenty-two .men has been placed around the town and Surgeon Carter states that a house-to-house inspection 18 being conducted on the line of the Gulf and Ship Island Railroad, in or- der to make sure there are no cases outgide of McHenry. ATLANTA, Ga., June 11.—Sixty-five sick soldiers arrived here last night from Tampa, and were taken to the General Army Hospital at McPherson. Nearly all are regulars. Many of the sick are suffering from fever.

WHERE THERE IS NO DANGER.‘ CLIMATE IS MORE FAVORABLE THAN IN SOUTHERN STATES. If Pacific Blockade Is XKept Up It Will Mean the Extermination of People in Three Provinces. Special Dispatch to The Call. NEW YORK, June 11.—The Medical News in its issue of to-day will pub- lish a discussion of the advisability of a summer campaign in Cuba, written by Dr. D. F. Laine of Philadelphia, who is a Cuban-American, in which he 8ays in part: “The unpreparedness of the military branch of the Government has become so apparent and from all accounts the necessity of a much larger body of troops to invade the island so evident, that I can well understand the hesitation on the part of the Washing- ton authorities to land iroups at this season of the year around Havana and Matanzas. In faect, I am about con- vinced that unless- Havana in the meanwhile capitulates from lack of food no troops will be landed in that province before the month of October or November. “Around Santiago the conditions are different. The country all about is hilly and much more healthful and by utilizing the several thousand insur- gents in the neighborhood for the pur- pose of garrisoning the city after its capitulation, the-American troops ‘could be safely encamped all summer under decidedly more ‘advantageous condi- tions than at Chickamauga or Tampa. “From the point of View of a Cuban, this pacific blockadé, especially if kept up all summer, means the practical ex- termination of all the people in these three provinces—Pinar del Rio, Havana and Matanzas—and as the war, we are told, was undertaken for the purpose of saving these people, why should not American troops be immediately land- ed on the island, even if they do run the risk of a high death rate from eli- matic conditions, ete.? “On the other hand, as Americans, we are justified in reasoning the matter. We are certainly unprepared for such an undertaking. Our soldiers, mostly men who were onlyyesterday clerksand mill hands, are not even supplied with one of the most essential and vital ‘things for a summer campalgn in the tropics, and that is suitable clothing. In such an undertaking we know that climate does not influence mortality as much as deficient preparation and lack of organization; therefore, let us take into consideration the lives of 20,000 or 30,000 Americans as against the Cuban unfortunates, who are, perhaps, al- ready beyond human aid. This pacific blockade will certalnly force Havana to capitulate long before October, and by that time we shall have a thorough- 1y trained and properly equipped body of troops.

CAII&E, Moderator." MAY FORCE SPAIN MAKE TERMS President Is Considering a Plan to Car to Home Ports. So It Would Be Well for the Cas- tilians to Surrender After San- tiago and Porto Rico Fall. Call Office, Riggs House, ‘Washington, June 11. As Indicated In these dispatches last night the probabilities are that a part of the Cuban expedition is well on its way toward Santiago, where it will co- operate with the marines and insur- gents in Guantanamo Bay. The main expedition under General Shafter is believed to be still at Tampa, although the War Department officials will not give out a word of news. It was said to-day that the main expedi- tion might not wait for the re-enforce- ments to be sent from Admiral Samp- son’s squadron, but that the transports would be convoyed by vessels now as- sembled at Key West, where they would meet the vessels sent by Ad- miral Sampson in the Windward Pas- sage. Critics of the War Department fail to see why there should have been any delay whatever if this plan is now to be adopted, for if the troopships may steam as far as the Windward Passage under convoy of the light vessels they can make the rest of the voyage with- out fear of the Spaniards. The only danger apprehended was from Spanish gunboats supposed to be lurking in the vicinity of Havana harbor. Naval officials do not credit the re- ports of the presence of Spanish ships in Cuban waters, with the possible ex- ception of several small gunboats which have been in some of the har- bors for a long time. They maintain that they have had the coast clear. for the sailing of transports for three weeks, and are inclined to place the blame for the delay in sending troops upon the shoulders of army officials. Naval of- ficers d6 not hesitate to say that the convoy to be furnished by the Navy Department is strong enough to afford ample protection to the transports. In endeavor to assist the army the Navy Department has even gone so far as to offer to send several armor-clads around Cape Maysi from Santiago to meet the transport fleet. It was sald to-day that immediately following the capture of Santiago a. fresh force of volunteer soldiers will be ordered there. to hold the city, while the regulars, with a sprinkling of volunteers, Wil leave fur Porto Rico to complete the subjugation of that island. The vol- unteers to be used at Santiago will probably leave upon receipt of news that the city has been captured. The President has no desire to go be- yond the limits now fixed; but it is in his mind to force Spain to terms by ADVERTISEMENTS. e rE e E et TO D e R L L OO UUTUERIy ry the War CARD 10 THE PUBLIC We ordered 40,000 pairs of Men's Shoes for the soldiers going to Manila.
