H\van*a, June 9.—The latest evi« ,
denee of the loyalty of the fepaoiard*
in Spanish*America hits taken a new
form. What is deemed to be a strong I
anti-Spanish feeling in the American ,
: Senate and in the United States gen-
erally has been developed by the press \
I in the mother country, as well as in j
Spanish-Amcrica. It has led to the
calling together of Spanish merchants !
in the Republics of Mexico, Uruguay |
and the Argentine Republic. The?
have protested against what they re-
gard as tiie unfriendly utterances of !
the American people, and have unani- j
mously decided to cease further pur- ,
, chase* in the United States.

Maprii>. June —Minister of Ma-
rine iieranffer received by the last
mail from Cuba and sent to the su-
preme court of appeals the papers and
report of the admiral commanding the
West Indian station on the case of the
filibustering vessel Competitor and
the tive men captured on it.
The supreme court will appoint a
judge to examine the case and draw
up a report before the full court pro-
nounce* upon the merits of the sen-
tence of the Havana court martial. A
decision cannot be expected earlier
than a fortnight, though the govern-
ment has allowed the court to know
its desire for prompt interpretation ol
tlie text of the treaties, especially
that of 1887.
Most Spanish jurisconsults and mili-
tary men believe the court of appeals
will simply quash the Havana sen-
tence and declare the whole proceed-
ings unwarranted and contrary to the
treaties. The court will then order
that the ease will be tried afresh in
Havana by ordinary jurisdiction, with
all the guarantees of fair play stipu-
lated in the treaty of 1377.

Havana, June 0.—According to a
local paper, United States Consul
General Lee said that he came to in-
form himself on the problem pre-
sented in Cuba and would report to
Washington with strict impartiality
aud justice.
Consul (iencral I.ee has visited the
several Americans imprisoned in Ca-
banas fortress. He found the Com-
petitor men very wretched, and in
tilt by quarters and will apply for
their relief at once.
It is reported that no formal charge
has been made in the case of Thomaa
It. Hawley, the correspondent of Har-
per.*.* It is expected that he will be
released soon. He complains that his
arms were tied behind him when he
wis arrested and that he was threat-
eneii with death because he could not
carry baggage
Hawley sent to (jeneral I.ee the fol-
| • ug:
"Mr—I have the honor to call your
attention to the fact that 1 am an
American citizen, born in New York,
and am now imprisoned in a military
pri*ou without haviug any hearing
whatever. 1 took tip my residence in
Artemi*a about the 1st of May last.
The celador of the place threatened
me with arrest at the time because I
was ai< American. I obtained |>ermis-
sum from the officer in command there
to remain. About a week ago this of-
ficer came to Havana, and (ieneral

Sr. Louis, Mo., June 9. —Eleven
I United States Senators, Teller of
' Colorado, Gear of Iowa, Lodge of
Massachusetts, Mautle and Carter of
| Montana, Sewell of New Jersey,
Pritchard of North Carolina, Quay of
Pennsylvania, Pettigrew of South
I Oakota, Proctor of Vermont and
Dubois of Idaho, will be delegates to
the Republican National convention
next week, while less than twenty
members of the House will have seats.
Senator Carter, chairman of the Re-
publican National committee, will ar-
rive this evening or to-morrow, and
the others will probably be here the
last of the week.
H L. Swords, sergeant-at-arrns of
the Hepubliean National committee,
said of the financial probabilities that
the big Republicans were unanimous
for a positive declaration in favor of
the gold standard. They wot;Id not
count ou defeating the Democracy of
the South on a "straddle" platform
and could fight to better advantage
on a sound money platform for the
greater States. Asked what would be
the result of a free silver bolt. Swords
said: "Suppose Teller should lead his
delegation out of the convention, has
he any assurance that the alternates
would follow himV For all political
purposes the alternates under these
circumstances would answer just as
well as the delegates. Men like Car-
ter and Mantle are not going to bolt
the party. They have everything to
lose and nothing to gain by such a
step, and even if it would politically
profit them to bolt, they are too good
Republicans to do it. 1 was told by a
Missouri free silver Democrat the
other day that Iowa would go Demo-
crat if the Republicans declared for
gold. I think I know something about
the State, and on a gold platform we
can elect the ticket by an old time :
majority."
Fully five times as many newspaper
correspondents as politicians are now
here for the Republican national con-
vention next week. Less than half a
do/en politicians of national repute
have put in an appearance. It is not
1 expected that there will be much real
activity in a political way until the
arrival of M. A. Hanna. Major Mc-
( Kinley's manager, with his forces. He
is expected tomorrow. T. C. Piatt
will follow, and it is also said that ex-
1 (iovernor Oear. of Iowa will be here
I before the middle of the week with
assistants, to engage in the prelimin-
ary skirmish in behalf of Senator
Will am B. Allison. Lithograph por-
traits of Senator Allison have been
put in shop windows aud posted upon
the dead walls of the town.
Judge Thompson of Ohio, who will
speak for McKinley contestant* and
contestees, said that he was certain
that there would be but one bullot for
the naming of a presidential nominee.
He also said Speaker Thomas II Reed
would not accept the vice presidential
nomination He wa* quite as positive
of this as he \\a* that McKinley would
be nominated on the first ballot, lu
regard to the platform he *aid: "It
will be a 'sound money' platform. It
will be a platform that will be accept-
able to the Republicans Last and
Weit. However, some of the dele*
gates may go away dissatisfied at not
haviug been able to word It just as
they desired, but it Mill be a platform
they can support."
ii W. Hill of the national committee
said that the delegates from Tennes-
see were squarely for a single gold
standard and for McKinley. The
Tennessee delegation will present the

Lkavknwobtii, Kan., June 9.—Four
small boys lost their lives by drown-
ing in this city yesterday afternoon.
The names of the victims are: Dennis
Desmoud, 1) years old; Michael Des-
mond, 0; Daniel Cummings, ?, and Eu-
gene Cuminings, 6. The Desmonds are
brothers, as are also the Cummings
boys.
At 3 o'clock this section was visited
bv a downpour of rain, reaching
almost the proportions of a cloud-
burst. The four boys, who were after-
wards drowned, in company with two
larger boys, sought shelter from the
I rain in a culvert at the corner of
Fourth and Linn streets. Before they
realized their peril, the ravine which
the culvert drains, was converted into
a roaring torrent, and they were
shot through the 6x0 culvert with
irresistible force, while the four little
fellows could offer no resistance to
the pitiless flood. The ravine ends in
the Missouri river about t',000 feet
from the culvert where the boys had
taken refuge, and the bodies of three
of the victims were carried into the
river, beyond the hope of immediate
recovery.

manner of acqnitting themselves in

tion to the British officers in command
of them.
Reports indicate that the loss of the

men. Among those killed is the Emir

besides important chiefs.

A BOMB THROWN
tlty ,f these notes were never signed
nor shipped, but still a great Bumbar
were in circulation on tbe island.
l)n the face of the note is an an-
nouncement that the paper will be "ex-
changed for gold and silver by the re-
public and will be received as taxes,
custom house duties und In payment
of all obligations."
But the republican government at the
time was so unstable that this promise
was of little value. The army carried
bundles of the notes with them and
paid for what they got with them. No
merchant would argue with an armed
force over the value of the money the
soldiers gave him for his goods. Ho
had the chance of the Cubans winning
and his having In his possession a
fortune paid for a few hundred dollars'
worth of property. But it was a big
gamble in the last war.
Now i'arrafut Won.
Admiral Farragut, one of the gr*at
est heroes of American naval history,
once told a friend how he won his first
great victory. Its importance to this
land will not be known until the books
are opened at the last day. He said:
"My father went down in behalf of
the United States government, to put
an end to Aaron Burr's rebellion. I
was a cabin boy, and went along with
him. 1 could swear like an old salt.
I could gamble In every style of gam-
bling. I knew all the wickedness there
was at that time abroad. One day my
father cleared everybody out of thi
cabin except myself, and loeked ths
door. He said:
44 'David, what are you giug to do?
What are you going to be?'
44 'Well, father,' I said, 4I am going
to follow the sea.'
44 'Follow the sea! and be a poor,
miserable, drunken sailor, kicked and
cuffed about the world, and die of a
fever in a foreign hospital?'
44 40h. no. father.' I said, 4I will not
be that; I will tread the quarter-deck
and command, as you do.4
44 4No, David,' my father said: 4a
person who has your principles and
your bad habits, will never tread th>
quarter-deck and command.'
"My father went out and shut tho
door after him, and I said then: l
will change; I will never swear again;
I will never drink again; I will never
gamble;' and. gentlemen, by the help
of CJod I have kept those three vows
to this time. I soon after that became
a Christian, and that decided my fate
for time and for eternity."

(Ieneral Morgan was Grant's commis.

mattox successfully fed I-ee's entire
army of 25,000 men In addition to
Grant's troops. During one of Grant's
campaigns the confederates by a flank
movement rounded up 26,000 steers be-
longing to his commissary department

known in Washington a dispatch ar-

"I am," promptly telegraphed Grant
