Things are looking rather warlike
here, in iFact all over the country,
and the conflict is not far off. They
are having it already on the water,
as you will observe bv the news

Departure" of the Cody Guards,
The scenes enacted at thesta
tion Wednesday morninc forced
the grim, awful reality ot war
home to a great many hearts
Ever since the receipt of the
orders Tuesday afternoon the
guards had been hard at work mak
ing their final preparations ' for
departure. Soon after six o'clock
the crowds began to gather around
the armory and the station was a
solid mass of humanity. About
eight o'clock the Hamilton Cadets
marched to the armory and lined
up just east of the doorway. Soon
after. Co. E fell into line and head
ed by the band and escorted by the.
6. A. K. and the Hamilton Cadets
they marched down Front street
to .Locust, thence south to the
Court house and a block east to
Spruce street, then north to the
station. As they turned the corn
er to the station a mighty cheer
from a thousand throats rent the
air.
No. 2, the train on which they
were to leave for Lincoln, was near
ly an hour late and during the
interval the final leave taking
words were spoken and hands were
wrung in silent sorrow. The boys
were lustily cheered a great many
times, but when the train rolled
into the station there were very
few eyes but that were dim with
tears because no one knows when
the company, will return nor how
-. p
many may be left on some distant
battlefield to await the last bugle
call.
The scene brought back, very
vividly to the minds of the old
veterans, gathered there to give
the boys a send off, Ihe time when
they were leaving home about
thirty-five years ago.
An extra passenger coach h ad
been put on No. 2for the guards and
as soon as the tram came to a
standstill the guards were marsh
alled into it.
After all had gotten in the com
mand attention was giveu and
Rev. Beecher offered a prayer for
tbe safety, honor and welfare of the
Just as the train pulled out of
the yards every engine in the yards
and round house began to whistle,
making an almost deafening sound.
The cheering was also terrific.
Until after the train left town al
most no business was do'he, the
shopmen did not work and school
was not called. There were at
least two thousand people gathered
at the station to do homage to the
guards and their patriotism.
The guards destination Wednes
day was Lincoln but they will
probably be, at once, transferred to
Ft. Crook where the work of reen
listment as volunteers and reorgan-
zation will' be completed.
The fu-
ture work of the
guards is so un-
certain that a great deal of Interest
is felt in the development ot the
next few days. Fifty-four men
left here bu.t the company will be
raised to the full quota of sixtj'
five by ten recruits from Lexmg
and Elmcreek and one from Grand
Island.

STATE JOURNAL.
A Letter from Captain Baker.
Pmi.ADEr.PUtA, Pa., April 24.
Editor Tribune: War fever high
here, and I suppose it is with you.
Philadelphia is full of patriotism.
You would think, to hear the talk,
that all that is necessary is a little
grease and tills city would eat
Spain. Philadelphia is a good city;
one need only to live here a short
time to learn to like it. We have
been here over five years and find
it a very pleasant place to live.
The soldiers' cemetery, of which
have charge, is one of the best in
the United States. Pear trees in
cemetery are in full bloom and have
it grass three times this month.
Do most of cur cuttihg with horse.
We make from five to seven inter
ments of ex-soldiers each month;
often bury with military honors.
This cemetery contains filteen
acres enclosed with a stone wall.
There are 3,482 graves of union
soldiers and 128 rebels. During
the past year we have put in city
water, which is a great improve
ment over the old windmill. The
house is of stone, three stories and
contains eighteen rooms. It was
built for a summer residence and
cost $65,000.
I am glad Nebraska is coming to
the front both as a farming state
and a war state. I predict she will
give a good account ot herself in
the present war. -
Many ot the old Ct. A. K. boys are
trvmg to enlist, but most of them
are too old and broken down. v
With three cheers tor Old Glory,
I remain yours,
Benj. P. Baker.

FROM THE SEAT OF WAR.
Key West, April 28. i The United

,16v captured the big Spanish steamer
Gjddo, bound from CcHrunna, Spain,
foe Havana, yesterday. Tho prize had
on loarda large cargo of provisions
ai4jmoney, intended for. the Spanish
trpops in Cuba. The capture took place
thrto miles off Cardenas after a desper
ate chase, during which tho Terror and
the! gunboat Machias fired, almost blow
iilthe Spaniard's pilothouse into the
liier.
jiEie Terror was alone when the

SZas Sailed to Bombard Our Coast.
WWnNGTo:s, April 28. Tho war sit
uation is substantially this : Tho block
a'ding squadron remains passive before
Havana with no present purposo of
bombarding or of drawing tho fire of
the ilhore batteries. The strategic pur
pose :of effective blockade of the Cuban
capital is being accomplished to the en
tire satisfaction of the authorities here.
There is no indication that a part of the
fleet vill bo withdrawn for tho purposo
of affording additional protection to
Norch Atlantic ports. v
Nci word had come to the department
.up ti) tbe close of office hours of the ar
rival of the Mont serrat at Clenfuegos.
The very fact that the Madrid officials
havtf rather ostentatiously declared that
tho Spanish fleet has sailed to bombard
the cities on the north Atlantic coast is
taken as a certain indication at the navy
department of the utter improbability
1 . TM a,
or sucn a movement, ai mis were con
templated the .Spanish officials would
bo tlio very last to make their purposo
public. Tho navy department as yet
;has made no arrangements for the care
jot prisoners taken by our -warships, but
the 'legal officers of the department
thlnlrthey should be peat to the Boston
paval prison. Some vexation was felt
it te injury sustained by the Cushing.
t-Sl'is-said that this is the first serious
breakdown she has suffered in tho June
yearn of her service. -Luckily the de
partment will be able to replaco her
veryehortly, for President Malster of
tho Columbian iron works called at the
navy department yesterday afternoon
to announce that the torpedo boat Mc
Kee,: a 20-knot boat, would be ready for
trial today. She will be sent at once to
Norfolk to havo the finishing touches
added and then will join the squadron.
In the war department there is a
growing benei tnat tno campaign
proper in Cuba will not be in full
swing before next fall, when the raiuy
seasou has ended. That belief, how
ever, has not prevented the officers
whose duty it is to get the troops to
gether, from pushing their work with
tho jjreatesUenergy. Thus within 12
houri) after the Hull bill became a law
tho department was able to begin to
send out circulars prescribing the meth
ods to be followed in recruiting the
regular army up to its full war strength
pf 01,000 men. The enormous amount
of work involved in thus increasing the
army, regular and volunteer, has caused
General Miles to abandon his southern
trip for the present.
Including France four of the six groat
powors of Europe -have declared their
neutrality, namely: Great Britain,
Italy, France and Russia. There re
main of the great powers Germany and
Austria, neither of which have yet
acted. The delay of Austria does not
cause surprise, as Austria's sympathy
with Spain is 'more pronounced than
that of any other country of Europe. It
is not doubted, however, that Austria
will cssumc a neutral attitude sooner or
later;

WAsnnfaTON, April 23. Intense in
terest was shown at the navy depart
ment today in tho . published reports
from Key West of the engagements at
Matanzas yesterday between the shore
batteries and three vessels of Admiral
Sampson's, fleet. The fact that Ad
mirai Sampson, nas not made any re
port to the secretary as yet, notwith
standing he must h&ye had the same
opportunity to communicate with Key
West as was enjoyed by the press, leads
tho officials of the department to believe
that the affair as not of great conse
quence. Indeed, they say it is incon
ceivable that any very extensive dam
m$jh coig navo oeen aone upon
properly placed batteries at the distance
reported, varying from 2U, to 4 milea,
in the short space of J8 minutes, during
which it is said the engagement lasted
A member of the strategy board, who
is of course thoroughly conversant with
the plans of Admiral Sampson, so far
as they have been generalized, is au
thority for the statement that the ad
miral, had no intention whatever at
this time to bombard the Matanzas bat
tery. To do so would be of bad strat
egy and of little avail, for in the ab
sence of any landing force the admiral
would be unprepared to take advantage
of the victory he might gain through a
reduction of the forts, and the Spaniards
mignt nave ample opportunity over
night to repair in a largo measure the
damage inflicted on their fortifications.
It is stated positively that Admiral
Sampson's purpose was simply to ascer
tain if any shore batteries existed at
Matanzas, and, if so, to draw their fire
and ascertain their character and then
to retire beyond range.
In. other words, it was simply a recon
naisance. In the event that during
his observations the admiral discovered
that new defenses were under con
struction on the shore, he would, it is
said, of course, not lose' the opportunity
to cripple thorn by 'throwing a few
shells into the earthworks and endeav
oring to knock over a gun or two. It
is tho goneral belief at the department,
however, that Matanzas is to be soon
reduced and made a base of operations
for the campaign against Ha
vana. It is also tho president's
purpose .to keep in mind throughout the
war the awful condition of tho recon-
centrados, who are most numerous in
and around Matanza3. Unless relief is
extended to them they undoubtedly
will perish during the progress of a
long, drawn out war. The reported
seizure by the Spanish .military author
ities at Matanzas of stores contributed,
by Americans and held in trust there
for the relief of these poor sufferers is
regarded as a clear indication that even
if the Bed Cross steamer Texas is per
mitted to land her cargo of supplies at
Matanzas under existing conditions the
food will not reach the reconcentrados,
but will only go to support the Spanish
garrison im their.resistance. Therefore,
it is believed-that thapreeidentxoteai
plate3 the earlj- seizure of Matanzas,
not only because of its importance, but
in order that he may from there hold
out a helping hand to tho starving
peasantry. It is likely, therefore, that
while there was nothing of the natur
of a general engagement in Admiral
Sampson's reconnaisance of yesterday,
he will soon take steps to begin a heav
ier and livelybombardment of Matan-
Details of tho .Engagement.
Ox Board the Flagship New YoitK
off Matanzas, April 27.-2 p. m. The
New York, the Puritan and the Cincin
nati bombarded the forts at the mouth
of Matanzas harbor thia afternoon.
There were no casualties on our side,
but it is believed that the hail of iron
which pounded in the forts must have
caused loss of life to the Spaniards,
though nothing is known definitely.
The engagement commenced, at 12 :57
and ceased at 1 :15. Tho object of the
attack was to prevent the completion
of the earthworks at Funta Gorda. A
battery on the eastward arm of the bay
opened fire on the flagship and this was
also shelled. About 12 eight-inch
shells were fired from the eastern forts
but all fell short. About five or six
light shells were fired from the half
completed battery. Two of these
whizzed over the New York and one
fell short.
The ships left the bay for the open '
sea, the object of discovering the where
abouts of the batteries having been ac
complished. In the neighborhood of
.800 shots were put on land from the
three ships at a range of 4.000 to 7,000
yards. Rear Admiral Sampson whoa
asked if he was satisfied with the re
sults said :
"Yes, I am. I expected to be."
The half completed Spanish earth
works and battery were apparently all
plowed up by the shells.
All the ships engaged showed excel
lent marksmanship throughout tho eu
gagement and when they were firing
at the shortest range nearly every shell
took effect. Tho forts which were
bombarded were on a low lying point
and were considered meraly earthwork!.
They did not make a good target, yet
when the big guns were fired at th,j
shortest raage portions of the fort could' j
be.seen flying iu the air at every shot.
The flagship returned to Havana ant
the'Buritaa. and Cincinnati were left at
Matanzas station.
