Some apprehen-ion is felt that th

Meditaranean, the S-iez and.the In.

this might be done it woold leave
the Spanish coms open to destruc
tion by Sampson and it ia hardly to
be expected that 8pain won d ei
pose her coasts to make the far tff
doubtful experiment of worsting

The appearance is that we will
nave to take Cuba und Porto Rico
and if the Spanish fleet does n t
come to us our fiVet will go to Spain
and force terms of peace.

The attacks in the Cuban waters
Wedceaday were of tbe most war
like charao'er and America mourns
the loss of number of gallant men
The points of the. attack were at
Ceinfueguea on the Siu'h side of
Cuba, at Cardenas on the north side
of the island and nearly opposite
Ceinfoegues and at San Juan on the
nrrth est coast of Porto Rioo.
The at'ack at Cardenas is the one
that proved so serious to us.
The Wilmington, the Hudson ard
the torp'do boat, the Winslow, at.
tackad three 'Spanish gunboats.
Tbe and batteries opened fire along
with the Spanish gunboats and tbe
battle raged with terrifio force. The
enemy singled out the Winslow, the
weakest vessel, end centered the fire
upon P. The Wilmington and the
Hudson tried to draw tbe fire but
could not. Soon a heavy shot tore
through the Winslotr and destroyed
her boiler and disabled her. She
was in the greatest peril of being
sunk. The Hudson went to her re
lief and amid a hail of shot threw
a line to her to tow her away. Much
difficulty was experienced and n
sign Bagley, of Raleigb, was on de:k
and was beard to say it is getting
too hot to stay here. Soon a shell
burst just in the faces of the group
and Ensign Bagley, John Varveree,
John Denfee, Georee Meek and L
H Tun net 1 fell dead and several were
wounded.
What further operations occurred
at Cardenas is not known this (Fri
day) morning.
Ibe attack at Ceinfnegnes, it
seems was for the purpose of land
ing arms, provisions etc., to the Cu
bans. Several efforts to land barges
were repulsed. Heavy losses were
reported. ' Later it seems (these are
Sparie'i reports) that some marines
landed and captured the port and
teizjd the semaphore (telegraph)
elation and took the coast guards
as prisoners.
The third action was that of
Sampson's fleet of nine vessels thai
attacked Mero fort. It made little
resistance and in a few minutes tbe
port was a heap of ruins. The
Spanish ateamer Rita was captured
by the auxiliary cruiser Yale.
Thus we have little to feel satis
fled with in tbe Cuban region, but
better results attended our pacific
department. Tbe Concord sank
Spanish war vessel in a two hours
fight. The Spanish veiS 'l went down
with colors flying.
It is now believed that the Span
iards have but two war vessels about
he Philippines. One is in dock
and the cruiser Boston is hunting
for tbe other with the hope of sink
ing it.
The international complications
nbout the Philippin that were
no ed in dtepatches Tbursdy looked
incedib.'e to ns at tbe time and we
bi:,k are unfounded. They, are
ever flitly denied. 1 here seems cot
ptrtiole of danger that anything
of the kind is contemplated or can
be provoked against tbe United
Stat s.
Tbe report that we lost a ship in
he fighting Wednesday is not con

RALEIGH IN MOURNING.
FulKn Hag-ley'a Nnd rale Canin a
Ulnoiit Tbe rws Itiohen to Hix
Mother Flaaia al Mair-TlHat The
Hody Will He Neut Hume.
There is great sorrow hern at the
news of the untimely death of Ka
sign Worth Bagley, United States
navy, in an engagement off Car
denas. The first news came to
Mayor Russ in tbe shape of a ttde-
gram from Lieut. John B Bernar-
dou, of the torpedo boat Winslow,
dated Key West, paying : 'Ties e
break the news to Mrs. Bagley lha
her son was killed instantly in an
action oft Cardenas yesterday.''
jUpon receipt of the news, Governor
Russell directed that tbe national
and 8ta'e flags on tbe capilol be
half-masted. Tbe same mark of re
spect was shown at camp Grimes,
the post flag there being also
dropped to half staff.
Eusin Bagley was a brave and
rising young officer. He was barely
25 years old, and graduated last
year at Annapolis. He was very
prominent there in athletics, par
ticularly in football. He was born
and reared here, and was educated
in tbe pnblic schools and at the
Raleigh Male Academy. His grand
father was Governor Jonathan
Worth, and his great uncle is tbe
venerable ex Treasurer John M
Wortb. He. was a brother-in-law of
Editor Josephus Daniels, of the
News and Observer. His father, the
late Wm. H Bagley, was for twenty
years clerk of the Supreme Court.
Mayor Russ telegraphed to Lieut.
BerLatdou to have the body em
balmed and sent here at once. There
is much comment here rn the fact
that North Carolina, which lost the
first man killed in tbe civil war,
has now lost the first officer killed
in the war with Spain.
Lieutenant Retney.'.United States
Nayy, telegraphs from Key West to
Mayor Russ that Ensign Bagley's
body will be shipped from here at 7
p. m. Friday, after being embalmed
and should arrive at Jacksonville
in 56 hours after leaving here. Lieu
tenant Bernardou telegraphs from
Key West to Mrs. Bagley : "Ensign
Bagley's remains are on torpedo
boat Foote. Military funeral here
tomorrow. Navy unites in grief for
loss of so gallant an officer."
The fund for tbe erection of a
monument over Ensign Bagley'i
crave is rapidly being increased.
This movement originated here, but
it is hoped the people of tbe entire
State will show their appreciation
of Bagley's gallantry and of North
Carolina's first sacrifice in the war
with Spain.
T'le flag on (he government
building is at half-mast in memory
of Ensign Bagley. The fronts of
several storeB are draped in morn
ing. Henry Buglcy left for Jack
sonville this afternoon to meet and
return with his brother's body. I1

day. There will be a military
funeral and a great demonstration

At the Lyceum Friday Mihl.
To a small number of invited
friends, the Lycium held its regu
lar monthly meeting Friday night.
The question for debate was: "Re
solved, That the forces which
brought about the downfall of the
Roman Umpire are now threaten
in tbe existence of our govern
ment." Tbe debaters on the affirm
ative were Mr. Holland Thompson
and Rev. C F Rankin; on the nega
tive Prof. Crittendon and Attorney
Stickley. The debate was excep
tionally good, when we consider tbe
fact that some of the speakers hard
ly knew what tbe question wae
until they arrived in the hall, there
having been some rearrangement of
the programme.
The pointed criticisms offered by
the appointed critic, Prof. Lewis,
were good from s'art to finish and
was a source of laughter for the
audience.
The judges, Mies Mollis Dodson,
H McNamara and Dr. Houston ren
dered their decision unanimously
in favor of the affirmative.
The names of Mr. Harry Wood-
house and Rev. C F Rankin have
been added to the roll of the Ly
ceum. As an initiation for Rev
Rankin, he was appointed debater
Friday night, this being his first
night in tbe hall.
nchley'sOplnlon of Dewey.
The Associated Press got tbe fol
lowing from Admiral Schley, which
is interesting on account of its in
telligent source :
"Admiral Dewey's victory at Ma
nila must deservedly take Us place
with the greatest naval victories of
tbe world's history. It has been
urged that tbe results show such
deciled inferiority in resistance as
compared with the vigor, of attack
that there is a diminution of tbe
glory, but that is nntrue, for it must
be remembered that the greatnesB
of Dewey's success lies in the calm
courage and daring displayed in his
decision to enter a strange harbor,
at dark, under tbe gans of many
forts and braving the perhaps hid
den torpedoes or mines.
"It strikes me that with several
advantageous fortified positions,
the preponderance of advantage was
certainly with the enemy, and that
witb the great daring displayed by
Dewey, there must fall upon bis
shoulders the mantle of Perry at d
Farragut. From tbe meagre accounts
that have been received of the bat
tle, it ia evident that despite the
great risk every officer and every
man knew was being taken,
there was not a faint heart in all
that squadron, but an enthusiasm
and e?prit de corps that could not
but win with such a leader. I
would note, too, that superior edu
cation which brings intelligence,
coupled with perfection in marks
manship, aided greatly in winning
tbe day, and will, I believe, con
tribute to futuie victories. Admiral
Dewey and eyery man in bis squad
ron deserves every recognition that
a grateful people and a nation can
bestow."
Dropped Dead nnridenly.
Friday morning about 11 o'clock
tbe wife ot Mr. M Luther Bost,
who liycs about six miles below
