There is absolutely no doubt in the minds of tho naval officials in "Wash ington that the sending of the collier into the harbor was a prearranged move on the part of Admiral Sampson. The use of a collier, tho unusual hoiir of the liioriiing, the necessity of blockading the channel so as to relieve some of the ships- uf the squadron from remaining Rt;'.t io'iiod off Santiago, the importance u discovering whether the mines were t i'feetive all these reasons make it cer tain tlmt the Merrimao was deliberate Iv uiueuto her destruction.

I oAii I lAoO HAMdUK, THE RETREAT OFCE niMTilnn $MvMf&0Mss0S fan-- fleet, gttto" jLfes Through the conrtesv of the CjLarlottj -The phrase, "bottled up in Santiago harbor," applied to Admiral Cervera's fleet, seems particularly expressive when the situation is fully understood. The harbor, with the very narrow' mouth of neck, is the bottle, and Schley's rleet is the cork. It is only 900 feet between tho shores of the opening of the harbor, and in times of peace the ship channel iu some places, "as shown on a chart published by the English admiralty office, is but 800; feet wide. This channel has been partly tilled with obstructions, and at present the actual ship channel is only 100 feet wide. I& depth it ranges from 5J0 to CO feet, aud further in toward Santiago, seven miles from the entrance, the water is but 15 or 20 feet deep r If Schley attempts to enter tha "bottle" after the Spaniards, he will find the task a most difficult one. Maneuver ing a battleship ;M8 feet long and GO feet broad, like the Massachusetts, or a 400 by 04 foot cruiser, like the Brooklyn, in a well mineU channel 100 feet wide under the guns of several forts is a practical impossibility. But so long as the "cork" is iu, Cervcra will remain well bottled up, and Sampson can proceed with the work of demolishing Havana and San Juan and 'covering the lauding of General Miles' armies of invasion. The narrowness of tho harbor en trance aud the speed of tho ships which made ten knots, allowed of the Cristo bal Colon being a target for ouly a few minutes. In that time it is believed she was hit twice, but was not serious ly damaged. Tho entire set of forts, Fix in number, opened tire and the ob ject of the expedition was attained, omoof the modern guns," with smoke less powder, were aimed well, but of all the shots fired not ono did iiny damage to Commodore Schley's ships. The Chriatobal Colon replied to the firei but all of the shots fell short, Ike American ships iired not more than four'rounds from their heavy guns, consuming in all 15 minutes for the fire.' The Spaniards iired more thau ten rounds, keeping up the fire when the ships were fully two miles out of tnoir range. During the action Commodore Schley occupied a position near the forward 13-iuch turret of tho Massachusetts and widened the shells Co whistling by as the ships got in the lino of tire ci the batteries, as uucencernedly as though in no danger of it.

Adjutant-General Corbin has made public an order apportioning the terri tory in which are to be raised the vol unteer regiments of infantry (popularly called immune regiments) for which the colonels have been appointed. It was at first announced that five of the regi ments were to be recruited froni colored persons, but it is now said that this number has been reduced to four. The territory apportioned is as follows: For the Third Begiment, Col. Bay, the States of Georgia, South Carolina and Florida, head quarters at Macont Ga.: for the Fourth Begiment, Col. Pettit, the States of Maryland, Virginia, "West Virginia and the District of Columbia, headquarters to bo designated here after; for the Fifth Begiment,. Col.

No Symptom of Insurrection In Manila The Berlin correspondent of the London Times says: "Manila advices to German commercial houses assert that there is no symptom of an insur rection in Manila, which is well sup plied with water and provisions. The presence of the American squadron hardly affected the native population. Only foreigners are injured by the blockade, and European residents"think their governments ought to interfere to proteot them. Attack on Santiago by Laud and Sea. A special from Port au Prince, Hayti, says that the United States fleet has renewed the attack upon Santiago de Cuba. . The people of Santiago, it is added, are momentarily in fear of an attack from the land side where there are said to be 3,000 insurgents. Alater dispatch says: "It is reported from Santiago that the rebels have attacked the city in three columns and that a bloody fight is going on." Will Spring a Surprise. The Spanish ambassador in London, Count Sascon, in an interview is quot ed as supporting the assertion made in Madrid that tho Cristobal Colon wa8 the only important Spanish vessel in the" harbor of Santiago during the re cent engagement there. One papei predicts that Admiral Cervera's move ments are likely to furnish startling news in the near future. Destitutiou at Santiago. No direct new3 has been received from Santiago, except a reiteration of the re ports of the dreadful destitution of the inhabitants there. It is said that now even the officials are unable to procure a normal supply of food. Can This Be Done. M. J.

From the Jaws of Death Glory is Snatched BY RICHMOND P. H0BS0N. Merrimae Destroyed By an American TorpedoFour Thousand Men Of fered Their Services. Bear Admiral Sampson decided to close the narrow harbor entrance of Santiago de Cuba by sinking the collier Merrimae, loaded with coal, in the channel. He called for volunteers to go to almost certain death, and 4,000 men offered themselves. Lieut. Hob son and six men were chosen, and at 3 a. m., Friday morning, the Merrimae, under her own steam, entered the chan nel under a terrible Spanish fire. The vessel was riddled with projectiles, but she anohored and swung around. Lieutenant Hobson then set off an in ternal torpedo with an electric attach ment, there was an explosion,, the Mer- 1 TO" f . HOW THE COLLIEBJIEHRIMAC WAS DESTKOYED. . . , , rimac sank, the channel was closed, and, apparently, Admiral Ceryera will be unable to escape. Lieut. Hobspn appear to have car ried out his plan to the smallest do tails, except a3" regards the method of escape. The row boat in which the crew were to attempt to escape was either blown up or shot to pieces, for Lieutenant Hobson and his men drift ed ashore on an old catamaran which was slung over the ship's side at the last moment as an - extra precaution. Upon reaching the shore the men were taken prisoners and sent to Santiago city under guard. Later they were taken to Morro Castle. Captain Oviedo, Admiral Cervera's chief of staff, who boarded the New York, did not give further details of the capture. The bravery of the Americans evidently ex cited as much admiration among the Spaniards as it did among the men of the American fleet. The prisoners will be perfectly safe and will probably be welltreated while they remain in Morro Castle. Officers of the fleet, when questioned as to whether Captain Oviedo could have had any ulterior design in visit ing the New York under a flag of truce, scouted the suggestion. Baying that the - ' Death of Captain Grldley. Capt. Charles V. Gridley, command er of theoruiser Olympia and one of the heroes of the brilliant victory at Manila, is dead. The announcement of his death was received by the Navy De partment, late Saturday afternoon, in a cablegram from Paymaster Gait, of the navy, date at Kobe, Japan, June 4th, and directed to Secretary Long. The dispatch contained this simple state ment: "Captain Gridley died today. Bemains accompany me on Coptic." A Car Load of Sick Men From -Tampa. A car-load of sick men from Tampa has reached Frt McPherson in charge of Dr. Woodson, of the hospital corps at Tampa. The men are suffering mostly from measles, sprained, ankles and eora eyes, and one of them has been made helpless by a tarantula bite. The general hospital at Fort McPher son now contains To men. The Mohican Sails for Manila. The United States sloop cf war Mo hican has sailed from San Francisco f jr Honolulu. It is understood that Ehe will remain on duty at that port, re placing the Pennington, ordered to join Admiral Dewey's fleet at Manila. Soldiers May V ote in the Field. The committee on election of Presi dent and Vice-President aad Bepresen. tatives in Ccngress have directed Mr. Samuel W. Smith, of Michigan, to make a favorable report upon Mr. La cey's bill to enable soldiers in the field to vote for members of Congress. It was agreed by the committee to recom mend an amendment which will make the law general, the bill as introduced restricting its operations to the period during which the United States should bo at war with Spain. 1 18 H liff it: visit was'pronipted by pure chivalry on the part of the Spaniards, and was noble of them. Clausen, the New York's coxswain, went on the Merrimae' against oidcrs. Nothing could have kept him from that trip into tho.jaw.-i of death. It is prob able that the Spaniards will try to blow up the Merrimae, but impiobable that they will succeed. Speculation is life as to tho extra details of how Lieu tenant Hobson mauaged to blow him self and ship up and live to tell the tale. His heroism has cleared up the situation. The Spaniards are now doubljr hemmed iu. At quarters on the New York Chap lain JKoyce prayed before tho bare headed crew on deck, thanking God for having preserved Lieutenant Hob soir '.nd the men under him. The chap lain had invoked this protection, but few believed it possible that his prayer could be granted. Richmond Pearson Hobson was born August 17, 1870, at Greensboro, Hail county, Ala., where he also graduated from tho Southern University at the head of his class. He was appointed to the Naval Academy on competitive examination in May, 1885, and although the youngest man of his class, grad-. uated at its head, in 1889. His first cruise was in the squadron of evo lution on the flagship Chicago, with Admiral Walker, in the Mediterranean. Later ho made a cruise to Brazil when the flag of the new Brazilian republic was recognized. He was ordered to a special course abroad, spending one year at the National School of Mines at Paris, and two years at the School of Maritime Science in tho same city. The summer vacation was spent in French shipyards, lie received diplomas from the French school for distinction in naval construction and design, both of hulls and of engines. He altio spent soino tirne in the English shipyards. He was assigned to duty at the Navy Department in 1834, in tbe office of na val intelligence, bureau of construction and repair. While on this duty he wrote a report on his observations abroad; also a report on disappearing guns afloat, which was discussed by naval experts on both sidos of the wa ter. In 1805 he was on duty at the New York navy yard as assistant to the na val constructor. Ho inspected the yacht Defender and made an interesting re port on that prize craft. Later he joined Admiral Bunco on the flagship New York. As a result of this service he inaugurated the new system of giv ing sea duty to naval constructors. He proposed organizing and conducted the popt-graduate course at the United States Naval Academy, fixing the spe cial course at three years for officers de siring the high attainments in naval science. April 17th last he was assign ed to duty as constructor for the fleet at Key West. His expert knowledge was recognized by the. Mexican government, which designated him, in 180(1, to conduct trials upon tho Moxican dispatch" vessel, Dcuato Guerra, built at Philadelphia. Constructor Hobson is a great neph ew of Governor John M. Morehead, ol North Carolina. His father was a well known lawyer and judgo of that State. On the maternal line ho is a grandson of Chief Justice Pea6on, of North Car olina, and a nephew of Representative liichmond Pearson, of that State. He is a great-grandson of lormer Senator Williams, of Tennessee. Must Get Out of Canada. Steps have been taken by which it is expected that Lieutenant Carranza, who has conducted the Spanish spy sys tem from Montreal, with his associate Senor Du Bosc, former first secretary of the Spanish legation at Washington, will be expelled from Canada unless they adopt their own means to leave be fore an international question is raised as to their presence there. The Carran za letter, detailing his spy system, was communicated to the British ambassa dor, Sir Julian Pauncefote, together with all other information bearing on the operations of the Spanish officials in Canada. The ambassador was quick to act in the matter and without waiting the slow processes of the mail, cabled tho entire matter to the Foreign Office. Cadiz Squadron Seen Aain. A dispatch from Barcelona says a well-known merchant there has re ceived a dispatch to the effect that on May 27th a Spanish squadron consist ing of three cruisers and three other protected vessels, was seen off the inland of Madagascar, proceeding north ward. Spain Wants Peace. The belief is growing in the be6t in formed government circles that Spain is sincerely anxious to make peace, and that even now she is seeking a favorable opportunity to make overtures in that direction. Numerous evidences of this have come to the attention of the authorities at Washington, but up to this time no move has been made to ascertain on what basis the United States would consider peace. Settled With the Pirates. Details have been received at Mala ga, Spain, as to the punishment re cently inflicted upon Riff pirates by the Shereefian troops, at Alhucemaa, a small island fortress and prison settle ment belonging to Spain, in tho Medi terranean,!; off the coast of Morocco, near Cape Morroko. it appears that tho Bocoy and Kabyle tribes were a- sembled to pay a fine of $20,000, when suddenly, at the sound of. a trumpet, the troops attacked them and slaugh tered many. The following military nominations have been confirmed by the Senate: Brigadier generals Fred D. Grant. New Ycrk; W. W. Gordon, Georgia, To be eecond lieutenant, Albert J. Dillon. Florida. Rejoicing In Spain. The TJadrid correspondent of tho Daily Telegraph, concerning the en thusiasm over the Merrimae affair, pays: "Lientenant General Corrca, Minister of War, on learning that the contents of the official telegram excited great enthusiabm in the Cortes, re marked that it wa3 undesirable for the country to excite itself over matters which were relatively small in com parison with those the war might yet bring forth, lest it sufler disappoint ment, if the fortune of war should bring the reverse.
