LETTERS FROM SAILOR BOYS
Missives from MoManns and Monfort to the
Dear Ones at Homo ,
WHITE HOPEFULLY OF THEIR PROSPECTS
Mrmlirrn of the Mnltie Creir Who Kept
Ilk Clone- Touch v\llli
UxIrnrtN from Their
I.nnt
Like messages from the dead are the laet
letters which the Council Bluffs relatives of
John McMaius nnd William Monfort , who
were able osamen on the United States bat
tleship .Maine , lost In Havana harbor. The
parents of the latter , Mr. and Mrs. R. T.
Mcofort of 718 Washington avenue , received
the last missive from their son yesterday
morning. It was dated at Havana , February
10. The last letter from McManus came to
Miss Jennie Murphy of 927 Avenue H , his
cousin , and dnughter of John F. Murphy ,
eovernl days ngo. It was written on January
.10 last , nnd Is full of Interest tig Informa-
tlcn regarding the situation nt Havana when
the battleship Malno arrived there.
List Monday night ( January 24) ) we were
maneuvering about sixty miles west of Key
\\est ( wrote the sailor ) when , about 1
p cloclfl In the morning , a torpedo boat
brought a dispatch to the flagship of the
squadron collected there nnd the admiral
Immediately sign-lied | the Maine to pro-
reed at once to Havana. On the way we
cleared the ship for action , had all the guns
and toipcdocs loidcd for action , nml at 7
o clock the next morning the Maine pissed
under the guns of Morn castle , down the
nanovv channel and swinging into < he bay
dropped anchor alongside the Spinlsh flag
ship before Havana and 300 y.iriis from C'n-
b.inas fortress. All this w.is done without
n murmur ; pliers the Spaniarddidn't
know what to think of our "crust "
T.iu liist tiling the Mulno did wns to
salute our consul general vvlMi twenty-one
guns. We then returned salutes with the
admiral of the Spinlsh fleet and-Captain
neutral Blanco While this was going on
the wharves , buildings , windows and hills
became black with Spaniards. Our sMnpor
( C'lljt-jln ' Sltrsbte ) then visited the different
ollle-ils , called on General l.te , whose Im
mediate orders WP are now under. Thcro
were stveial riots before our arrival here ,
but things seem to have quieted down.
Wednesday Leo and his staff and also
some pretty senorltas cime aboard and In
spected the ship. Yesterday Blanco and
stuff did the same. Blanco is a line lookIng -
Ing fellow.
SOME FIGHTING AND DAD WnATHKR.
Thursday theie wns he-ivy flg-Hlng In the
hills back of Havana. We bad the glasses
on them , but could discern nothing but
smoke rising In different places. In the
evcnlnp , however , we were told that the
rebels hail been repulsed with heavy loss
including their colonel.
Our position In the bay commands a good
view of the city and surrounding country.
Havana , of course. Is umlei in intlnl law
nnd everything shows the effects of the
war. Today a transport steamer brought
In 300 sick and wounded soldiers from the
Interior.
The weather here Is of nn Inferior brand
not and sultry In the daytime and cool
and damp at night. Wo are not getting
much to eat. Meat Is 40 cents per paunil
and other things nro In proportion , which
nccounts for our poor living. There are
quite a number of war ships lying here
German , British , Spanish anil our own llt-
tlo boat , which la by far the finest of ithe
lot.
lot.Wo
Wo seem to have caused quite n sensa
tion since our arrival AH of the papers
In the country nre full of news recnrdlnR
the proceeding. I don't think we shall re-
mnln here long , as we are booked to pre
side with the balance of ithe North At
lantic squadron off Floilda at the New Or
leans Mardl Gras on February 22 , but In
the event of our going there the Maine
will be relieved by home of the smaller
men-of-war. I am anxious to return to the
states and got something good to eat.
McManus reminded his cousin In this let
ter that ho vvns 22 years of age on January
19 , and in a postscript he said that on the
day ho wrote the letter there was to bo n
bull fight In the arcaa at Havana. All
hands wcro going ashore to see the novel
sport.
No reference wna made by McManus In his
letter regarding tbo treatment the sailors
of the Malno received at the hands of the
Spaniards while ashore , but In Monfort's
Inst letter to his parents that tailor referred
Indirectly to this queotlro , although In
former communications his relatives re
ceived no Intimation of Ill-treatment. The
letter received yesterday morning was short ,
and In substance It said :
Don't worry about me. There Is no fever
hero yet and won't bo until the rains set In.
We iv 111 be In New Orleans In about two-
weeks The Cubans nro only waiting for
the rain nnd fever to come and help them
kill oft the Spaniards. The Spaniards are a
little more deient now that they sec they
could not get us out of the harbor Spanish
soldiers keep coming to Cuba nnd every t-hlp
takes a load of mounded and sick soldiers
hack to Spain. They all seem to bo mere
boys.
GRIRVING FOR THD MISSING.
There was great grief among the rela-
tl'q of McManus anJ Monfort yesterday.
They passed the hours waiting anxiously
and wearily for some message or word
that would give them hope for the lives of
their loved ones. Many calls were received
from friends and acquaintances , who ex
tended their sympathies to the aflllcted
families and tried by words of cmcourago-
mcnt to comfort them In the hope that the
boys may yet bo safe from Injury or at
lenet not dead. When Miss Murphy learned
from The Bee In the evening no further
tIJIngs of the fate of the young man she
bccama distracted with grief. She said the
suspense was more tortuous than the con-
flunntlon of his death would bo , although
she sincerely trusted that her cousin vvas
spared. McNamus and Monfort enlisted In
.ho navy at the same tlmo for a period of
hreo years and their tlmo of service would
mvo expired in May. They were both ox-
icctod homo about Juno 1.
Monfort's mother was seen at her homo
ast evening. She said that she had received
10 word from n private source regarding the
'ate ' of her son and consequently she knew
milling more than she learned about the
disaster from the newspaper reports. She
lad about given up hope that her eon vvas
among the rescued Bailors.
"Wo have received several letters from
.Vllllam since the arrival of the Malno at
lavana , " said she , "but In none of them
ms ho given any Intimation of danger. In
act , ho wrote little about affairs in Cuba ,
iccmlng to bo moro anxious to wrlto about
ils homo and friends. His lettera wcro
short as a rule and the only ono I have
saved Is the letter I received this morning.
am afraid H is the last ho has written "
Both Monfort and McManus are quite well
( noun In Omaha , where both worked for
soiiio time. Monfort learned part of hla
trade of a plumber In ono of the Omaha
plumbing establishments and McManus
worked for some tlmo in the smelting
works. The latter was at homo on a fur
lough not long ago and whllo hero he pur
chased a building lot In Sunny side on North
Harrison street. In ono of his letters ho
speaks < t bending homo money on next
pay day to pay the taxes on thin lot.

The March term of the court promises to
bo an unusually brief one. The docket Is
much smaller oven than It was a year ngo ,
when the term was a phenomenally short
ono Arcry few * cases of Importance are to
be tried The Whlttlesey case Is the only
ono on the criminal docket that will attract
any nttentlon. Very few filings are shown
by the law and equity dockets , and from all
appearances Judge Woolson TV 111 be chiefly
occupied with the consideration and adjudi
cation of the cases Involving the violation of
the federal revenue laws and a few counter
feiters.

The executlvo committee of the Council
Bluffs Exposition association held its regu
lar meeting last evening. The reports from
the committees on soliciting funds showed
that the business portion of the city had
been quite well canvassed , with the ex
ception of South Main street , and it was
suggesto dibit the work bo extended to
other parts of the city b'sUo the business
portion , as considerable funds could probably
bo secured In this way. None of the commit
tees had entirely finished thalr work and
from the Interest manifested and the
amounts already subscribed the prospect
looks bright for the carrying on of the work
as previously laid out.
The Council Bluffs buttons have not met
with as ready sale as was ut first hoped for ,
but quite a number are being sold. It was
decided to ask the women of the city , who
are nt work In the Interest of the children's
building nnd the wigwam , to assist In sell-
Inc the buttons , as a nortlon of the monev
raised by them goes to the chlldrpn's
building fund and a part to the fund for the
vvlirvvim. The committee en grounds re
ported that the grounds could bo had fren
of charge , provided thut no competitive ex
hibit bo mnde , In which case tile site would
cost $1,000.
A report was circulated yesterday that
the proceeds of the Dickens party given
last evening by the art department of the
Women's club was to benefit the Council
Bluffs Exposition association , but such Is
not the fact. Secretary Judson stated that
ho was dallv lecelvlng quite n number of
names and addresses of persons "wishing to
entertain guests during the exposition
Prof Hlscy stated that In the homes of thi
children that attend the Bloomer school
about 2,000 guests would bp entertained ,
all being frlenJs or relatives in the homes.
The children of this school represent about
one-tenth of the school enrollment of the
city , nnd a conclusion can easily ba drawn
as to the number of families In the city thnt
will entertain company outside of the
strangers that will seek lodging here.
Jury In Smith disc Out ,
It was cxpcctcil that the Board of Edu
cation would know before dark last night
whether or not It would have to pay the
bill of L. C. Smith for the alleged defective
heating and ventilating apparatus In the
High school but the members went to their
suppers without receiving any word from
the Jury. The case was given to the Jury
at 11 o'clock1 yesterday. At the dinner hour
only the preliminary work of getting ready
to consider the verdict had been accom
plished , but the Jurymen seemed to be In
excellent spirits and not considering the
prospects of a long discussion. At supper
ttmo the smiles had left their faces nnd
there were Indications that a good part of
thu night might be passed In the juryroom ,

Complain of the CroNlHiiK.
A number of strong complaints have been
lodged at the city building concerning the
condition of the crossings at the corner of
Washington avenue nnd Benton street. The
crossings have been a source of complaint
for many yean , but within the last year
the condition haa grown to bo Intolerable
to the people who have to cross the streets
at that point dally. The crossings were
laid even with the street surface In order to
avoid any interference with the passage of
vehicles and In the course of the years
passed since the work was dona the. planks
have sunk deeper and deeper until now they
are out of sight and lower than any other
portion of the street. The residents are
talking about making these crossings a
political Issue In the contest for alderman
in the First ward this spring. There Is also
a strong sentiment favorable to securing the
paving of there two streets , which are used
as much as Broadway , and are sadly In need
of Improvement.

the expression on every hand was that If It
proved that the battleship wcs blown up bj
a torpedo or as the result of any treachery
war was unavoidable. This evening the
rnmoc gained currqncy tlat Governor Shaw
had received a telegram from the president
ofthe United States , asking for an Imme
diate report on tdq condition of the national
guard and Its availability In case of war.
When asked about It Governor Shaw cald
ho had heard the etory and had been asked
several times about It , but that he had thus
far received no such Inquiry from the presi
dent. The guard Is In good condition , nx-
Adjutant General Wright estimates that there
are In Iowa fully 12,000 trained soldiers , who
In the last ten years have received training
In the guard and nearly all of whom would
respond to a call ror troops , no uas care
fully studied the question of availability and
training of these former members of the
guards and declares that Iowa can place In
the field a division of 12,000 to 15,000 trained
soldiers on a few days' notice.
Compensation for attoinejs defending
criminals at state expense was discussed at
length by the scrate. Last winter a law
was raosed allowing the court to fix the fee ,
a maximum of $20 a day being named.
Hurst's bill proposes to cut this to $10 , vvltli
a J100 limit for n trial.
The Emmert bill for cattle Inspection was
recommitted to the committee on public
health for the third time. It la pretty cer
tain to be killed If It breaks out of com

Druet Introduced a measure to abolish the
circle at the top of the ballot and Mitchell
one to prevent Importation of nursery stock
Into the state afflicted with the San Jose
scale and to eradicate that pest where It
novf exists. Ellison's habitual criminal bill
came out of the committee. McArthur's bill
to provide penalties of $100 to $500 for adul
teration of linseed oil , requiring the state
oil Inspectors to enforce It , passed. Berry
Introduced a resolution that the house ad
journ from Saturday till Wednesday to allow
observance of Washington's birthday as a
holiday.
After a period of warm discussion the house
recommitted Penny's bill to list nnd tax
mortgages to the committee on Judiciary.
An effort was made to refer It to a special
commlttoo of five , but It met overw helming
defeat , the friends of the measure suspecting
the design of the motion. The bill was orig
inally reported for Indefinite postponement
by the committee on waja and means. The
sentiment In favor of the bill was hardly so
strong as jehtorday , but It still has strong
support. The committee on Judiciary will
doubtlefs return an unfavorable report , bolt
friends of the measure Insist they will bring
It on the floor of the house again regardless
of the committee's action. It Is hard to pre
dict Its fate.
The house Indulged In a heated discussion
over the Hlnkson bill to deduct from per
sonal property Mihjoct to assessment the

personal property should bo placed on an
