Nkw York, June 20.—A dispatch to the New York Herald from Madrid says: An allocution to the government by the powerful council general of Cata lonia, which icprebontb the mercantile intelligence of Spain, calling for peace, hub created a deep impression here, all the more on account of the logical and practical reasonings with which the council advocates a cessation of hos tilities. It states that nlthough the council considers America's conduct unquali fiedly unjust, yet that does not justify Spain in continuing an unequal com bat. which is bound to result in over whelming ruin. "It is better,” it says, to submit to an amputation, painful though It be. than to carry on a ter rible war with its thousands of disas ters. The matter will not be any more glorious after we have been ruined and the blood, of thousands of our soldiers shed.” The allocution ends with a call for immediate peace. The endlrss objections raised in the cortes to the taxation necessary for the continuation of the war are met by the governmental organ, El Dia. It says: "The country neither aaks for nor wants war. It understands neither its origin nor its issue, and on that ac count shows neither enthusiasm of any kind nor on that account does it re spond by its attitude to the responsi bilities. which the situation Imposes unon the «rnw»rnm**nt. It rf>fiiM«i ri flees which would willingly he ac cepted under other circumstances. With such a sentiment existing it is impossible to ask the government to prolong a war for which the country doeap'i seem Inclined to provide the necessary resources. Without money we cannot have war.” The Epoca. whose seriousness is above question, says: “In our opinion El Dia reflects with thorough exacti tude the position of the government. The Epoca cannot understand how the government can vacilate as to which course to take. It says: “There can be little doubt, according to the con census of matnred opinions, which have been gathered, that peace at the present moment, when the entire world gives full recognition to Spanish valor and bravery, is highly opportune un der the circumstances, which may not be so good again.” Madhiii. June 30.—There is consid erable comment here to-day over a long conference which has just taken place between the British ambassador to Spain, Sir Henry Drummond-Wolff, and the Spanish minister for war, (ien eral Correa. The newspapers of this city to-day pubMsh the text of a manifesto from the inhabitants of Catalonia, of which Barcelona is the capital, in favor of peace between Spain and the United States. Lospos, June 20.—Under the head ing: “Is the Bank of Spain Solvent?” the London Statist lengthily discusses Spain's condition, saying: “Upon the bank’s ability to finance the govern ment depends the continuation aud duration of the war. Practically the Spanish government Is now reduced to the expedient of using the printing press to meet its war outlays and the longer that printing press is in oper ation and the more notes are issued the greater will bo the depreciation of the value of the paper peseta. If the war lasts much longer we may see the I-1 -- <n uun «» h Q Ulor count of 50 per cent, depreciate as did the assignat of France at the close Of the last uentury. The formal suspen sion of specie payments cannot long lie delayed. Indeed the suspension has practically occurred." The Statist then presents an nrray of figures showing the exact position of the hank, with a note circulation of $2ti3,000,000 without any coin reserve available for Its redemption, and fur ther pointing out that such note circu lation may lie increased to8500,000.000. Finally, the Statist say* that in three years the Spanish and Cuban govern ments have iiorrowed 8200,000,000 from the liuuk of Spaiu. COMET ON SCHEDULE TIME.

Washington. June 20.—Major Gen eral Miles arrived in Washington yes terday, after having directed the de parture of the first army of invasion to Cuba. Ueneral Miles'attention was directed to reports coming from Tampa of great confusion and delay in preparing the expedition and getting it off for Cuba. “Yes,” said he, “there were causes contributing to this delay. In the first place the postoffice service at those points of army concentration is very deficient. They have the snme facili ties, and no more, as the local towns have when normal conditions exist. When 20,000 to 2.'>.00n inen are added to the population of the small towns, and all of the men are sending and receiving letters from their friends and relatives at home, besides the large amount of official business car ried on. the local postoflice facilities are entirely inadequate. That has been one of tiie troubles at Tampa, Chickamaugu and other places, and as a result t he official communication to and from the war department, on which depend the regularity of move ment of many kinds of stores, has been seriously delayed. “Then, in gathering the munitions of war for an army, it was necessary to have the service of a great number of trains, loaded with stores, crowding the meager railway lines far beyond their usual capacity. However, this is being straightened out now, and al most all of it has been overcome. General Miles was asked for the com munications between himself and Garcia, and, glancing over them, he gave ther general purport. “In my communication to him I asked him to move as large a force as possible to the vicinity of the harbor of Santiago de Cuba, and to co-operate with our army and navy on their ar rival, which 1 hoped would l* in a few days: lie was to drive in and harms* the Hpanish troopa near Santiago de Cuba threatening and attacking them at all points, and preventing any re inforcements from reaching that point, l'ending the arrival of our troops he was to seize any positions east or west of Santiago, or both, which could be used to advantage by our artillery. "He replied that he would regard my wishes and suggestions as orders, and would Immediately adopt meas ures to concentrate his forces as indi cated. "All his subordinates are ordered to assist in the disembarking of the I'nlted States troops and to place themselves under orders. Gensral Gar cia said he believed it possible for the artillery to be taken as I had suggest ed. He sent a force at once to prevent aid and reinforcements going to Santi ago de Cuba. The energy of his course is shown by the reports of the last few days, for I see tiiat General Itabi and his men have taken a strong position just west of Santiago. While there were unavoidable delays at Tampa, very annoying to myself and others, 1, at least, had the consolation of know ing that every day enabled the Cubans to make their march across the country and get positions which would be of the greatest value to our troops when they landed." When General Miles was asked if he expected an early light, he answered laconically: ’’That a what they've gone for." AUGUSTUS FAMILY SEIZED. — Insurgents In Manila Will Cnpture the General Next Madrid, June 20.—The following dispatch from Manila, signed by Cap tain General August!, and dated June 13, is published officially: "The grave situation set forth in my dispatch of June 8 continues. The troops are lighting on the line of blockhouses, which stops the enemy's advance. Th# enemy has been strengthened by desertions of the na tive troops, which diminish onr means of re*intone*, and may compel me to taka refuge within the walled city. “Communication with the province* Ih still cut off, and I do not know whether the detachment there will lie able to hold out against a lack of re souress. “I hope to receive assistance from the peninsula before our means of de fense are exhausted." Senor Sagasta, replying in the Cor tes to a question as to whether Manila had fallen, replied in the negative, but he added that the situation there was of the gravest character. Japan,according to a apecial dispatch from Shanghai, is sending additioual wurships to Manila, uiul it is reported at Shanghai t «at the American troop* have arrived at Manila.

FORT A PICTURESQUE RUIN. Interrupted Message* Show That the Enemy's Resource. Are Exhausted— Soldiers Now on Hell Rations—Active Aid From Insurgents. Kingston, .Jamaica. June 20.—Tho week's campaign in Eastern Cuba lias resulted in the practical demolition of the outer fortifications of Santiago de Cuba, in anticipation of the arrival of the troops and the occupation of the fine harlior of Guantanamo, in which to-day are anchored such magnificent ships as the Oregon and the St. 1’aul, together with the Marblehead, Dol phin, Suwanee and eleven other aux iliary gunboats, colliers and press dis patch floats, In an average depth of seventeen fathoms of water. The military resistance to the de finite oocupation has practically ceased since the bombardment on Wednesday. An intercepted official report of the Spanish military commandant indi cates that his military resources arc exhausted. Ills soldiers arc now on half rations. There are supplies only for the remainder of June. The com mandant has already seised all the private drug supplies for the soldiers. The close oordon maintained by the Cubans about Guantanamo is illus trated by the fact that official Spanish communications, sent in duplicate by land and water, have been intercepted and the Spanish messengers in both cases have been shot by the Cubans while attempting to pass the lines. For the last three nights there has been comparative quiet in the camp of the marines on the crest of the hill near Guantanamo bay. At dusk vol unteers from the warships go ashore and camp near the hill to be at hand in case of an emergency, and the Cubans go far out in the chaparral in order to prevent the Spaniards from stealing a march on the camp. General Parez, commanding the Eastern division of the insurgent army, called on Captain McCalla of the Marblehead yesterday and reported that he had 3,000 men. of whom 1,200 would reinforce the marines in a few days. Many bands of insurgents are now gathered along the coast, west ward to Santiago de Cuba. The warships have done no firing since Wednesday's bombardment of the fortifications of the inner harbor and the town of Caimanera. The Marblehead and Texas struck contact mines without exploding them. Each mine contained forty pounds of gun cotton, sufficient to destroy any vessel. The bombardment of Guanatanamo bay was not so heavy an at Santiago. The Spaniards fired only live shots and then fled. Three shots struck near the Marblehead, but none hit her. The ships steamed within 3,600 yards of the fort before opening fire, and then fired with deadly accuracy. The Texas stopped in the narrow channel to avoid grounding, but the Marblehead steamed ahead and swung around the south side of the harbor. Her first shots went wild, but the lit tla Suwanee, which was following her, found the range and sent shots straight into the foundation of the fort, hurling into the air bricks and dust. The Texas finished the business, two of her 12-inch shells reducing the fort to a picturesque und useless ruin. The Marblehead then turned her at tention to the barracks and breast works southwest of the harbor and speedily demolished them, sending the Spanish garrison flying for their lives. As the Spaniard ran down the rnainlnnd the St. Paul's fi-inch guns were trained on them, and several of the soldiers were seen to fall. Th# number of killed and wounded is not 1 known. The bombardment lasted an hour , and a quarter and was for the pur- I poa* of preventing a movement of Spanish troops from the town to the fortifications. Tha insur gent fiwces. which have liecn armed and equipped by Captain MoCalla, not only prove to bo daring scouts, but turn out to lie brave fighters and good shots with the Lee-Metford rifles. -- tor Poisoning Her llnsboutl.

SHE WANTED TO ABDICATE. Hagsota I>raaa<led the tjuern Hearnt to I’oetpone Action. New York. June 20.—A dispatch t the New York Herald from Madrid says: News concerning the adduction of the queen regent of .Spain, which was given by the Paris Temps without details, has been very half-heartedly denied in the Madrid press. The quern regent, much depressed by the sad situation of the country and tlic Spanish people's lack of sympathy for her, made up her mind a fortnight ago to renounce her right and title as regent in favor of the Infanta Isabella sister of the late King Alfonso XII. A ministerial council was held, aflei which nil the members visited the queen regent to beg her to give up the scheme for the present. They told her that under the present circum stances alHlication would seem like lliglit and would be very badly con strued by the country. Premier 8a gasta was so persuasive that he ob tained the following reply from the queen regent: “1 admit you are right, sir, but I do not altogether give up my plan; 1 only postpone it.” HAS ISSUED A PROCLAMATION.
