The official confirmation caused tre- mendous excitement, particularly in naval and military circles, where the Government is accused of ordering | Admiral Cervera to make a sortie, de- spite the known opposition of several naval experts. MADRID, July 6, midnight.—The Cabinet is now sitting, and its resigna- tion may be regarded as threatened. | The sequel will probably be a military Cabinet under Marshal Campos. There will also be, most likefy, a suspension of the constitutional guarantees. Senor Gamazo, Minister of Public In- struction and Public Works, had a long audience with the Queen Regent this afternoon and subsequently conferred with Duke Almodovar de Rio, the For- eign Minister. These interviews have caused much excitement. The Queen Regent has signed a de- cree promoting Colonel Ordonez and Colonel rio to the rank of general. The Government will transmit to the | powers the protest of the Cuban colo- nial chambers against the American in- sion of Cuba, which the protest de- ibes as ‘a2 brutal attempt to seize tory."” MADRID, July 6.—The popular ver- sion to-day is that Cervera was bought by the Yankees and offered no resist- ance, and that the one American killed died of delight at seeing the Spanish squadron sunk. This evening in po- litical circles the conditions of possi- ble peace are being discussed. It is absolutely certain that General Cor- rea, Minister of War, has an enormous majority of his powerful party. The army is calling for the war to end. LONDON, July 6.—The Madrid cor- respondent of the Daily Telegraph sent a dispatch to his paper to-day, saying: “I am informed that peace will be demanded to-day.” warehouses were all that saved.

MARYSVILLE, July 6—Fire at 4 o'clock this morning destroyed the large livery stable of Henry Elmore, and the tinshop and storeroom of White, Cooley & Cuts. It originated in Elmore's stable. Twenty-six horses perished and thirty- seven vehicles, including fine hacks and hotel buses, were burned. The loss of Elmore is $30,000, insurance $11,300; White, Cooley & Cutts $10,000, insurance $5000. The Ellis block, Western Hotel and other large bulldings narrowly escaped. Fire this afternoon partially destroyed the handsome residence of ‘WersA Charles Binney. It was caused by palnters whe were removing puint with a gasoline torch. Paci;c-Const Pensions.

Cesmat, | Home, | EQUIPME | WASHINGTON, July 6.—By compari- son with what has gone before to-day was very quiet at the War and Navy ‘departmenls. There were bulletins | posted In the former department, but there were none of more recent date | than yesterday and, so far from indi- | cating an impending battle, the general tendency of these bulletins was to | absolutely immediate contemplation. Deep concern is felt here at the de- | privations and sufferings of our troops lying in trenches and field hospitals surrounding Santiago, and there is everywhere a disposition to insist that herafter haste shall be made slowly and that the equipment of our soldiers, their commissary and quartermasters’ supplies, their ammunition and their | nospital stores shall be complete in | every respect before they advance | further. This is likely to be the rule, even at the expense of time and in the face of the criticism of an element that has been vehemently insisting upon rushing the campaign without regard to cost in blood and money. Confidence is felt that there will be no friction between the army and navy commanders and that the conference between them will result in an agree- ment on a joint plan for the prosecu- tion of the campaign. In the event that this belief should not be well founded the President is prepared to | act himself by orders from first hand. There is much of force in the naval {argument that if Sampson is obliged | to enter Santiago harbor before the forts are captured he will jeopardize the safety of the whole of the ironclad fleet under his command, since by the sinking of one of these ships in the narrow channel, through a Spanish mine or shell, the fleet would be left { helpless and exposed to destruction under the guns of the forts, to which they could make no reply, owing to the elevation of the latter. On the other hand the army officers seem to be justi- fied in avoiding the tremendous sacri- | fice of life that would be involved in again trying our soldiers upon the Spanish defenses until they have been materially reinforced in numbers and strengthened by artillery. .Sampson did not report to-day to the { Navy Department, but the War De- partment sent over a very agreeable | message from Shafter announcing the readiness of the Spaniards to exchange Hobson and his men. It is believed that this was accomplished some time during the day, though notice of it has not yet been received. The fact that several of the vessels selected for Watson’s fleet were in the | thick of the engagement of July 3 | promised to delay somewhat the de- parture of the Eastern squadron for the shores of Spain. The vessels have con- sumed a good deal of coal and doubt- |less have expended a large quantity of their highest grade ammunition in the furious attack on the steel war- ships of the Spaniards. It will be necessary to replenish these stores be- fore the long ocean voyage is begun. However, Secretary Long has given rush orders for the preparation of this squadron, and it certainly will be off in the course of a few days. The movements of the Cadiz fleet are very puzzling to our experts here. Weakened as it is by the sending back |of the torpedo-boat destroyers, the | Spanish squadron bound for the Phil- | Ilppines seems destined to go to sure destruction, as did Cervera’s unlucky ships when they headed westward from the Cape Verde Islands. The Spaniards are without doubt fully aware of the inferiority of their fleet, and why they persist in sending it to | be sunk in the Philippines is a mys- |tery. The department was advised to- day that the squadron was passing | through the Suez canal, and as the ves- | sels must have paid the heavy toll re- quired in advance, the indications are | now regarded as conclusive that the ships are actually bound for the Phil- ippines. This belief stimulates the preparations here for Watson's sail- ing. He will strike stralght after Camara, who, in the end, is doomed to be caught between Watson and Dewey. Secretary Long regarded the report that the Alfonso XIII had been de- stroved while trying to run the Ha- vana blockade as the best news of the day. It had not come to him in any direct official way, but through a re- port from General Greely, chief signal officer, who had received a cipher mes- sage, stating briefly that the Spanish ship had been overhauled near Mariel while trying to get through the block- ade, and was a total loss as a result of the fire upon her. Both the Secre- tary and General Greely regarded the report as authentic, but there was a desire to get more details, as this has been something of a spectral ship. The Alfonso XIII was an iron gun- boat with one screw, one funnel and military mast; square rigged, 280 feet long, 43 feet beam and 15 feet draught. She had a displacement of 3090 tons. She had a speed of seventeen knots for short distances and an average speed of fourteen knots; carried eight- een large guns, five machine guns and five torpedo tubes. Her officers and crew numbered 370. Secretary Long-is quite hopeful that several of the Spanish ships of the Cervera squadron can be saved, in part at least, and possibly as a whole. Assistant Secretary Allen shares in this belief and thinks that the Cristobal Co- lon can be got off the rocks as an en- tirety, and that the hull, upperworks and guns can be made available. She was the best armored cruiser in the Spanish navy, and if she can be floated and repaired will make a valuable ac- quisition to the American navy. Allen is hopeful also that the Vizcaya and Oquendo can be saved in part. Infor- mation has reached the department that the hulls are not badly damaged. The contract with the Merritt Wreck- ing Company is by the day, and may be canceled at any time if the Govern- ment finds the salvage is not progress- | show that no forward movement is in| NT OF SOLDIERS CONSIDERED Deep Concern for Troops Lying in Trenches and Hospitals.

The cotton will be | forwarded to New York, where it will | be auctioned off toward the end of the week. The expectation is that the cot- ton will bring a fancy figure, in view | of the use to which the money is des- [ tined. CREED TRIES 10 TAKE LIFE Speclal Dispatch to The Call. SAUSALITO, July 6.—Ex-Marshal John E. Creed came again to the fore as a prominent fighter in another fra- cas over the poolrooms, and as usual his ever-ready revolver played a prom- inent role. In an altercation at about 2 o'clock this morning with M. A. | Hughes and “Teddy” Alexander Creed fired a shot, but his arm was struck | up by a cane in the hands of Hughes and what probably would have proved a tragedy was thereby averted. The accounts given by the various persons interested conflict in many points, but the general trend of the story is about the same. The two men were passing Broyer, Glynn & Hum- phreys’ establishment, where Creed is acting as night watchman. He says he was awakened by their tearing down | the Fourth of July decorations over the door, while both the others assert that they only tapped the wall lightly in | passing. Creed came out of the door- way with an oath, and Alexander threatened to thrash him. The ex- Marshal jumped inside the doorway and thrust his revolver through the aperture. Hughes caught the gleam of the weapon in time to strike Creed's arm, and when the revolver exploded the bullet passed harmlessly upward. The disturbance awakened many people in the vicinity, but the two men passed on and few knew the real cause until to-day. When Trustee Sylva heard of it thls evening he said Creed would be arrested to-morrow. Hughes says Creed threatened to kill him only a few days ago. In consequence of this trouble the poolroom disturbance has taken a new lease of life and the Town Trustees are making another effort to oust the rival San Mateo faction. A communication signed by Trustee A. Sylva, J. Thomas and L. J. Ambjornsen was at once sent to General Dickinson, requesting him in his capacity as president of the board to inform the Western Union Telegraph Company that the firm con- sisting of Glynn, Broyer, Humphreys and probably others is conducting a poolroom business without a license and in deflance of law and requesting the company’s ald in suppressing the firm by refusing to give it telegraphic communication. General Dickinson, it is asserted on good authority, has written to Superintendent Jaynes, men- tioning the communication received from his fellow members of the hoard and stating that the action of Glynn, Broyer and Humphreys in disobeying the mandate of the board has led to trouble and turmoil. The superin- tendent is asked not to support these men in the commission of a crime by supplying telegraphic service. From this it would appear that the town is about to go through another poolroom campaign. CONGRESS OF MINERS Spectal Dispatch to The Call. SALT LAKE, July 6.—The second meeting of the International Mining Congress opened auspiciously at the Assembly Hall this morning, and from the manner in which the body settled down to work the meeting is destined to be the most important yet held. expected and comprised many ladies. All the Western States, with the excep- tion of one or two, and many of the Eastern States were represented. Even far-away Peru and Venezuela had their representatives on the floor. The opening day was necessarily taken up in preliminary organization, the real work of the congress begin- ning to-morrow, when various subjects will come up for consideration. The morning session was devoted to Msten- ing to speeches of welcome and effect- ing a temporary organization.
