Wasuinotos, June 30. President
McKinley was up until well after 1
o'clock this morning, going over the
war situation with Secretary Alger.
Adjutant General Corbin was also with
him uiAil a late hour. During the time
the three were together at the White
house there was an informal discussion
of the situation and it was stated pos
itively that the dispatch of reinforce
ments from here would not cause Gen
feral Shafter to delay any plana he may
have formulated.
AGUINALDO TURNS TO EUROPE.
I'owers May H Asked to Uuarantea
Freedom Prom America.
Manila, June 23, via Hong Kong,
Jane 30. It seems probable that the
situation in the Philippines is about to
become complicated, and it is much to
be regretted that the American gov
ernment did not hurry forward 1,A00
men to enable Dewey to take and hold
Manila and to plant the flag firmly on
the citadel Possession is nine points
of the law, and interference, which
would be almost impossible were the
American flag flying over Manila, may
become comparatively easy while the
tlty is still under Spanish rule.
Ve are threatened with various com
plications. First, the rebels, either
Influenced by foreign consuls or in
flated by their surprising success under
arms, have changed their tone and
now want complete independence.
Aguinaldo has already issued a circu
lar saying that it is probable that he
will invite the European powers to
recognize and guarantee the complete
independence of the Philippines. This
leader, in his complete ignorance of
diplomacy and of how to deal with the
astute European diplomats, will soon
involve himself in inextricable compli
cations, the first of which may be a
rupture with his American protectors,
which is what Germany is aiming to
ecu re.

Jkffekson City, Mo., June 30. Gov

J. Lee, who pleaded guilty in St. Louis
in December to the theft of two horses
and was given two years in prison.
The governor believes that drink caused
Lee to plead guilty.

LMhn. June Jti. A dispatch to the
IVf.y TiVj.'rpU from Manila says:
" The ri port that Germany will not
permit a Uti.lar.!;iuiit is em it ing deep
irritation in the American Meet. Ad

I weli to caution tbein to keep nut of
the American line of lire. It remains
to be seen uhethei Germany has really
given such pr.miisi as are preteuded.
"Two attempt have ln-en made on
the life of General Ati'.naldo. in order
to secure the reward placed ou his
bead by I'uptaiii General Augustl.
"The I'll, ted 'ntt-a cruiser lloston
has gone to lliiliuno, to establish
there, so It is reported, a (wise of (ier
Htions. Captain General August! has.
arranged a conference with the fur
i i). n admirals, presumably on the sub
ject of protection of the lives of non
combutautM. "The situation is growing unlieara
ble. The besieging force give us no
rest, and the work of the Spanish
troops on the line of defense is terri
ble. They are lighting with the des
peration of resignation. They have no
nourishment and for days have been
reduced locating wild birds and shell
fish. Still, with starvation staring
them in the face, they hold their posts
and fight with the courage of their
race.
"The population is in a state of ter
ror. No details have reached here as
to the fate of Captain General Augus
tus family. The provincial garrisons
have been starved into surrender. The
belief, first entertained, that Germany
would help Spain is growing fainter,
and it is now feared that she will share
in the partition of the Philippines.
There are now seven German warships
in the bay."
The Herliu correspondent of the
Dally ' News says: "The following
semi-official note has been published
here, apparently with the object of
preparing the world for the lauding of
German marines at Manila:
"As yet no statement has reached
here about the landing of German
marines at Manila, but it is a matter
of course that Admiral Von Diedrichs
will ir.tcrfcrss a soon as it may be
come nt'.'cvy i ir t:,o rcot ''. ion if
Gernu.ns there. Sucli a i.i.Msure
would have no joliticai sb-is t.c;.aeu
whatever Neither at Washington nor
at Madrid have negotiations occurred
on this matter."
The assurance that n lrui:'..'r of
marines would have no political sig
nificance is very nice. The only ques
tion is whether the United States will
share this opinion, or whether the
otlier powers will sec in it an act of
interference, compelling them to fob
low suit.
l'laln rood fur the Troop.
Washington, June 30. The oflicials
of the War department discourage the
sending of delicacies to the soldiers.
Pickled onions, preserved cherries,
canned fruit, cocoauut cake and such
things arc delicious enough, but lioxes
of them are not calculated to improve
the digestion of men who are obliged
to submit daily to the rigid military
discipliue and training. The secretary
cf war suggests that donations of this
character in the future be sent to the
hospitals only, and that the surgeon
general of the army lie consulted as to
where they will be most needed.
i ' To fiend Aid to ttomea.
IKet West, Fla., June 30. The
Cubans here held a big meeting last
night to devise means of sending relief
to Gomel, who is in desperate straits
for want of food. The speakers were
Colonel lternabe Doze, chief of staff to
Gomes, and Major Charles Mendiota,
also a member of the staff. They de
scribe the condition of the 3,000 men
with the commander-in-chief as
wretched, and made effective appeals
for help.
Heavy Woman Klder IMee,
Fort Scott, Kan., June 30. Miss A.
Hates, known for twenty years past
by the professional name of Miss Cad
die Claire, the heaviest female bicycle
trick rider in the world, died at the
home of her niece in this city yester
day afternoon, from the effects of a
chronic ailment, induced by excessive
wheel riding. She was 48 years old,
five feet tall and weighed s!3 pounds.
Chancing- Their Tone.
St. Pktknsuvkq, June 30. In view
of the continued improvement of the
military position of the United States,
the newspapers here are changing their
tone to friendship for America and I
now speak with contemptuous pity of
Spain, the reason being, it is alleged,
the growing fear of an Anglo-American
alliance.
Independence for Porto Rico,
LosiKiN, June s0. The Paris corre
spondent of the Morning Post says: "I
learn on the authority of Dr. lietances
that, with a view of preventing Amer
ican intervention, Spain will bestow
independence upon Porto Rico, subject
to certain commercial advantages
being reserved for the mother coun
try." The O'HIggtn Not for Spain.
New York June 3o. Flint & Co. of
this city have received a dispatch from
lieech Si Co., Valparaiso, Chili, saying
that there is no truth In the report
that the Chilean armored cruiser Almi
rante O'Higgins has been sold to the
government of Spain.

San FltAMisco, June 30. The
seedy t.l-iiiiicr Newport, lcarinp
Major General Wesley Merrill, mili
tary governor of the "Philippines, and
his staff, In-sides the Astor light bat
tery and I latter ic.-, 11 and K of the
Third United States artillery and
detachments from the hospital and
signal corps, is now on its way to
Manila. As the vessel gradually drew
awny from her dock the blowing
of many whistles told the people
on shore that General Merritt had
sailed. Great crowds had gathered to
witness the departure of the vessel and
many fashionable cpiipagcs were on
the dock. Many tug lioats and yachts,
chartered for tlie occasion, accompan
ied the Newport down the bay and out
through the Golden gate to the Pa
cific, where the last farewells were
waved.
The Newport will make an effort to
overtake the third fleet of transports,
which sailed Monday, after the fleet
reaches Honolulu, where the vessels
will coal ami take on fresh supplies be
fore proceeding to Munila. General
Merritt is very anxious to avoid an
encounter with any vessel of the
Spanish navy and will issue orders to
the fleet at Honolulu to make all pos
sible speed to the islands. It is prob
able that the Newport will not wait
for tlie other vessels of the fleet at
Honolulu, but will proceed with as
little delay as possible to Manila.
FORCES FAILED TO UNITE.
General I'antlo Tried to Send 10.0O0 Men
to Kelnforre Linares.
Nkw Yoiik, June 30. A dispatch to
the New York Herald from Juragtia de
Cuba, via Kingston, Jamaica, says: In
formation has been received from
Mau.anillo to the effect that five
batul lions of Spanish troops which left
that city several days ago to reinforce
General Linares, returned to Man.a
nillo two days after their departue.
This news is regarded as indicating
the failure of the Spunish attempt,
under command of General Pando, to
rush 10,000 trained troops to the de
fense of Santiago.
The information has set at rest the
fears of both the American and Cuban
commanders. They believe that Pan
do's men were either unequal to the
difficult inarch from Manzanillo to
Santiago, or that General Linares, re
alizing the hopelessness of his position,
sent word that it was useless to send
these additional troops to that point.
SOLDIERS ING00D HEALTH.
None of the Wounded Dead Only Two
Have Nurmmbed to DUease.
Washington, June 30. The War de
partment has posted the following
bulletin:
"Plata uki. kstb, JunaM.-The Hon. Rus
acll A. Aliwr. Secretary of War: Off Slboney,
June Iff. The irravea of the dead are marked so
that there will be no mistake In identification.
The health of the command is reported to me
by the surgeons as remarkable, ouulde of the
wounded. There are to-day less than 100 men
sick. So far no wounded have died and but two
men of dlUcaNe since leaving Tampa Shafter,

"War Department. Washington. June Hi.

tary of War, Washington: Sincerest thanks
to the President for his congratulations.
Shafter, major general."
MISSOURI TROOPS.
Where Those I'nder the Second Call Are
to lie Raised.
Kansas City, Mo., June 30. Ad
jutant General Hell of Missouri an
nounced at Jefferson City to-day that
Kansas City would not lie permitted to
raise a company to fill Missouri's quota
under the President's second call for
troops. St.. Louis, which furnished
fewer men than Kansas City under the
first call, will be allowed to furnish
two companies. The other towns and
counties where companies will be
raised are: Carondelet, California,
Willow Springs, St. Charles. Stoddard
county, Kennett, Lutesville, Doni
phan and Linn counties.
Crow After Street Railways.
Jkffkksos City, Mo., June 30. At
torney General Crow stated yesterday
that he would institute proceedings in
the supreme court not later than to
day against the street railway com
panies in Missouri. The proceedings
will be an application for a writ of
mandamus to compel the companies to
furnish the state board of equalization
with sufficient facts to enable it to as
sess them as provided by an act of the
last legislature. The companies will
demur, he says.
The War I Wearing on the Pope,
Home, June 10. The pope is said to
be greatly affected by the course of
the Spanish-American war, and, m
view of his age and nervous prostra
tion for some time past, bis attendants
are anxious, although his physicians
declare there is no cause for alarm.

TELLS HIS TROUBLES.
Captain t.rneral Auguotl Kay the Jig la
Nearly I'p at Manila.
Mamiiii, June .l i. The government
ha received the fallowing disoat-.-
from Captain General August.!, lifted
from Manila on June - !:
"The situation is still grave. I con
tinue to maintain my sition inside
the line of block houses, but the enemy
is increasing la nnmls-r. us the rebels
occupy the provinces which are surren
dering. I
"Torrential rains are inundating the
intrenehments, rendering the work of
defense difficult. The nuiul-cr of sick
among the troops is increasing, making
the situatiou very distressing and
causing increased desertions of the
native soldiers.
"It is estimated that the insurgents
number 30,imnj armed with rifles, and
J OO.uou armed with swords, etc.
"Aguinaldo has summoned me to
surrender, but 1 have treated his pro-
jiosals with disdain, for 1 am resolved
to maintain the sovereignty of Spain
and the honor of the flag to the last
extremity.
"I have over 1,000 sick and 200
wounded.
"The citadel has been invaded by '
the suburban inhabitants, who have
abandoned their homes, owing to the
barbarity of the rebels. These inhab
itants constitute an embarrassment.
aggravating the situation, in view of
the bombardment, which, however, is
not seriously apprehended for the
moment. '
"The governor of the Viscayas and
Mindano islands cables that he has de- !
feated the insurgents in an engage
ment, during which Chief Arco, Agui
naldo's representative, was killed. He
adds that tranquility now prevails
throughout these islands, and he fur
ther asserts that the principal Malay
chiefs of the Mindano group declare
they desire to fight on the side of the
Spaniards against the invaders."
According to other advices, the emi-
saries sent out to seek General Monet's
column of a thousand men returned
after a fruitless search.
Captain General Augusti's family is
still in the hands of the insurgents.
General Pena, with a thousand sol
diers, has surrendered. His soldiers,
most of whom are natives, joined the
insurgents. A majority of the detach
ments in the island of Luzon have sur
rendered, owing to their lack of food, j
though some succeeded in escaping.
Numerous Spaniards, including the
governors of liatahga, Laguna and
Itulacan, have taken refuge at Cavite.
The rebels who are besieging Manila
exceed 25,000 men.
The city is completely isolated and
the arrival of the Spanish squadron is
anxiously awaited, for the position of
Manila is untenable.
Small rebel craft navigate the bay,
conveying prisoners to Cavite.
IlHrlwtl Wire i'uttrni.
Warhinhton, June 30. The war de
partment has hud in mind the diffi
culties of the campaign that are just
developing to the public eye, such as
the use for the first tune in civilized
warfare of barbed wire fencing as a
menus of defense, and, acting upon
the advice of some of. our tinny offi
cers who were in Cuba while the fight
ing was confined to the Spaniards and
the insurgents, a certain number
of men in each regiment have
been provided with wire cutters and
charged with the duty of cutting down
these fences so as to permit the ad
vance of the troops. It probably will
be necessary to shell out the force de
fending these wire chevaux de frise
before they can be cut, unless the men
in charge of that duty are to be un
duly exposed to danger. This will in
volve a larger use of field artillery
than would be required in ordinary
warfare.
Fleet In Bad Condition.
T.ondon, June 30. A dispatch from
Port Said says: "A distinguished na
val oflicer, who examined Admiral Ca-
mara 8 ships carefully, laughs at the
idea of Admiral Camara attempting to
reach Manila. The Spaniards, he says,
are wise to keep the fleet out of the
Americans' way. The battleship Pe
layo and the armored cruiser Impera
dor Carlos Quinto are in scandalous
disrepair, indeed, are hardly sea
worthy, while it will be impossible for
the torpedo boat destroyers to get far.
The Spaniards cannot keep the engines
trimmed."
To Attark Saiupoon In Itear.
London, June 30. The Star prints a
story to the effect that a part of Ad
miral Camara's fleet left him off
Algceras, near (iibraltar. and is now
on its way to I'orto Rico "to join the
squadron of torpedo boats which Cap
tain Vallamil has had concealed near
there for three weeks past. This fleet
will attack Admiral Sampson in the
rear while Admiral Cervera attempts a
sortie simultaneously with the com
mencement of the land battle. Thus
Admiral Sampson will be too pre
occupied to help General Shafter."
Gomel and Garcia Are Cool.
LoNDftN, June 30. The Madrid cor
respondent of the Times says: "Owing
to the inactivity of General Maximo
Gomez, it is believed here that his re
lations with General Calixto Garcia are
strained."
General Merritt's Army.
Washington, June 30. The under
standing at the War department is
that the total number of regulars and
volunteers which will be dispatched to
Manila in command of Major General
Merritt will approximate 21,000 men.
I'ncle Sam as a Raloonlat.
Washington, June 30. The House
committee on alcoholic liquor traffic
yesterday reported favorably the bill
to prohibit the aale of intoxicating
liquors on roMTvationn and in build
ings controlled by the I'nitetl State.
