They Are Led to Believe That the Americans Are Beginning to Encounter Serious Difficulties. Copyrighted, 1818, by James Gordon Bennett. f MADRID, June 14.—Instead of the | general feeling here being pessimistic it is that the Americans are only be- ginning to feel the pinch of the shoe which, the further she goes, will hurt her the more. That three papers—the Pals, the Na- | cional and the Vida Nueva—take as | texts for the feature of the day the| question of peace is significant as| showing that public sentiment is being } rapidly molded to accept the inevita- | ble. The Pais is rabidly republican and all along violently jingo. The Vida Nueva is a new paper, born upon the present condition of affairs. Its pro- gramme is to renovate Spain; it is the | voice of young Spain. At the end of an impassioned patriotic article, it| | says: “Peace is what our country needs to- day. All men of character and strength should support it, thus putting an end to the terrible sufterlug of this unfort- | unate country.” | The Herald agent is pilloried in the Correo, which says that not only from | Gibraltar but now from Lisbon the | Herald’'s correspondents send news of | | the Spanish ships and their arma-| ments. It reproduces Lisbon telegrams to the Herald. The Bourse was buoyant to-day and up one point on rumors of interven- tion of the powers and a reported Span- ish victory at Santiago. The Govern- | ment holds no confirmation of such ru- mors. In connection with the prospects of | | peace a long consultation between | | Senors Moret and Sagasta to-day is| commented upon. Private telegrams | tell of a conference at Manila between | i the German Consul and Governor | Augusti. The Minister for Foreign Affairs, | Duke Almodovar de Rio, told the news paper men to-day that the Spanish | Government had not taken any step in | the direction of peace negotiations. The | Minister said he had not received any | confirmation of the reported third at- | | tack on Santiago. The Minister of War, General Correa, | declared the situation at Manila better than was supposed. He said Captain General Augusti had concentrated 20,- 000 men for the defense of the city and his batteries of artillery were asserted to comprise 199 long-range guns. It was officially announced to- day‘ that Senor Dubosc, the former Spanish | | Charge d'Affaires at Washington, and | | Lieutenant Carranza, the former Span- ish naval attache at Washington, have | been “invited” to leave Canada, owing | to the “Canada authorities having in- | | tercepted a letter which Lieutenant | Carranza addressed to the Minister of | | Marine, giving an account of the con- dition of the American fortifications.” The optimism of the press is increased | | by a belief that Germany intends to | | prevent a bombardment of Manila by | making a naval demonstration. The | newspapers urge sacrifices, with the view of securing Germany's assistance and political leaders express themselves | in favor of offering Germany the fol- lowing concessions in return for her | “taking the Initiative in forcing Ameri- | ca: Firstly—Naval stations and coaling depots in Spanish Oceanica. Secondly—Spanish concurrence in the development of Germany's commercial | )relallnns with Morocco. | BERLIN, June 14—Advices received from Shanghai by the Frankfort Zei- tung say news has been received there from Manila to the effect that there Is fighting every night around the town. The insurgents, it seems, are trying to | capture Manila and to establish an in- dependent government before the Americans land. The German Consul at Manila, it is further reported, has 300 Germans and Swiss on board a refugee steamer in the harbor. VIENNA, June 14—The Neue Freie | presse says that Spain has requested | the powers to urge the United States | to occupy Manila, should the town sur- render, and not to allow the insurgents to do so. YOUTHS' DIRECTOEY | Committee of Anungements for the ! Laying of the Cornerstone at Work. The committee having in charge the ar- | rangements for the laying of the corner stone of the Youths' Directory at the cor- | ner of Eighteenth and Guerrero streets on July 17 met at the home of the society at 2030 Howard street last night to per- fect the arrangements for the occasiony | There were present: Chairman James R. Kelly, Secretary David J. Costello, Dr. John_Gallagher representing the sodality, | the Rev. Fathers Crowley and Melville | with delegations from the various Irish societies who will participate in the lay- | ing of the corner stone. The formation of the committees was partly perfected at the meeting last night. On_the reception committee George E. Gallagher was made chalrman with power to add to the number requisite to give the committee a working power; on the com- mittee on music, Joseph Sullivan was made chairman; on the committee on in- ? | vitatians, General P, F. Walsh was made | the chairman. By unanimous consent T. R. Bannerman was elected marshal of the day with power to increase the number of his alds to suit the occasion. Eugene Hanna will have charge of the grounds and see that the Invited guests are prop- erly attended to. It is estimated that the procession will number over 6000 and to supply this body with appropriate music it wa3 thought that at least three bands w“uuald be necessary, which will be sup- plied. —— e Side Arms Barred. An order was issued at Camp Merritt yesterday prohibiting privates from car- rying their side arms except when on duty, Anticipating this order, the offi- cers of the different regiments have de- clded to have the tents of their men searched for pocket guns and other wea- gons that the men are known to carry t is a notorjous fact that evry gun sh np in this city has been utterly depleted of small arms.

PARIS, June 14. try was defeated in he Meline Minis- the Chamber of | tense excitement and an uproar. House w lic galleries. The Premier, M. Meline, opened the proceedings by vehemently repudiating the statement that he was engaged in | an anti-democratic policy, but he de- | clared that the accession of Socialists | to power would spell ruin for France. Ex-Minister Bourgeois followed, taunting M. Meline with being unwill- ing to cut himself free from the Right- The s crowded, as were the pub- tinued their severe strictures of the Premier’'s ‘‘undemocratic policy.” M. Ribot then delivered a warm eulogy of the Premier and proposed a vote of confidence in the Government, but its terms elicited loud protests from the Rightists, amid general excitement. | M. Meline, however, accepted the | terms of the motion, whereupon M. l Cassaignac charged him with throwing | over the Rightists. The Premier retorted that he had never asked for the support of the| Rightist. The first part of M. Ribot’s motion— ‘“the chamber approving the declara- tion of the Government’—was then | adopted by a vote of 289 to 272. The | second part—"“is determined to put in | force the policy of democratic reform based on the union of republicans”— was adopted by 526 to 5 votes. Thus far matters went comparative- ly smoothly. Then M. Henri Ricardo moved to add the words, “‘and support- ed by a majority exclusively repub- lican.” M. Meline refused to accept this ad- dition. M. Ricardo insisted upon a 256 to 246, whereupon there was a ter- | rible uproar. The members of the extreme left arose en masse and shouted for the re- tirement of M. Meline. M. Berteaux yelled: “Get out; you are defeated.” Others, pointing to the | of ‘“booh: “‘Resign, resign.” | When a lull occurred another vote | was taken on the entire motion, whlch‘ M. Meline accepted, swallowing the ob- | noxious addition, and the motion was adopled by 284 to 272 votes. The Cham- ber of Deputies then adjourned until | Monday. In the lobbies of the chamber the | opinion was freely expressed that M. | Meline would resign after the council to-morrow, though nothing is certain, owing to the contradictory character of the votes. DEADLY FIRE OF | THE AMERICAN FORCE. The soclalists vociferated, Twenty-five Spaniards Slain in the| Second Fight at Guan- tanamo. ON BOARD THE ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH BOAT WANDA, OFF SANTIAGO DE CUBA, June 13, | via Kingston, Jamaica, June 14.—Dur- | ing the second night attack by the Spanish, which ended at daybreak, the marine held their grourld against des- perate odds, and the bodies of twenty- including a lieutenant, were discovered, which shows how deadly was the American defense. Every man in Admiral Sampson's fleet is anxiously awaiting the soldiers, for it is recognized that no decisive effect a landine. At no place are the than on the sun-blistered hill top where Lieutenant-Colonel Huntington's 600 marines lie in rifle pits, under almost continuous hail of Spanish bullets. Forty-eight hours of practically cease- less fighting has well nigh wrecked the men, who arrived here incapacitated for active field duty by the long wait on the Panther. With few exceptions, however, the marines showed spirit under the per- sistent fire of the Spanish bushwhack- ers, the officers particularly exhibiting the coolness and nerve of seasoned campaigners. To-day the work has been the light- est since the landing on Friday, the Spaniards having fired few shots since daybreak. Whether the enemy has been driven back to the city fortifica- tions, or has merely retired for the day, cannot be told until the darkness has arrived. A grim touch of realism was added to the warlike scenes when the flags on land and on the warships were placed at half-mast at noon to-day and gal- | lant Sergeant Major Goode was buried | on the hillside, scarcely twenty paces from the spot where he fell last night, The burial services were impressive, as the men felt that their situation was desperate and openly said they ex- pected to be gradually slaughtered until the arrival of the troops. The men freely criticize a policy which compels them to hold a position that could he retaken, they say, by a half hour’s ghelling, but not the faint- est disposition is manifested to do otherwise than to fight it out. The Dolphin arrived late last night d spent the greater part of the fore- n in pitching shells into the Span- ish blockhouse helieved to be the ren- dezveus of the Spaniards on a hill a mile and a half east of the American position.

THE GREGORYS ARE FREED FROM BLAME DISCEARGED FROM CUSTODY BY JUDGE MORRIS. | The District Attorney Did Not Think They Should Bz Held—A Clear Case of Self-Defense. ALAMEDA, June 14.—It was apparent from the statements of the District At- torney in summing up the Gregory case yesterday that there was no likelihood of the defendants being held for trial for the killing of Williams. He said then that there was little use in putting the county to the expense of a trial whose conclu- sion was practieally foregone, Acting upon this statement and upon his own conclusions from the evidence presented, Justice Morris this afternoon discharged both defendants from custody and they are now free from all legal blame for the death of Williams. As soon as they could get away from the crowd the couple went together to the home of the wife on Eagle avenue, where the tragedy occurred, It is considered robable that they will resume their mar- tal relations with each other. All through the trial there has been marked evidence | of affection between them, and when Mrs, Gregory broke down her ex-husband | > showed her every attention and endear- | ment possible under the circumstances. The result of the examination meets with the approval of public sentiment here. Willlams invaded the Gregory home and broke it up, and then sought to still further force his attantions upon Mrs. Gregory. That he should have met his death was only to have been expected. The fable that Willlams was an English baronet is exploded by the fact that the ‘‘Peeragh” does nut ive the name of any | such person as entitled to‘t,baronetcy There was once a Sir Hugh Williams, but ADVERTISEMENTS.
