Nipe Attacked by Warships.
Demolition of Vessels There as Preliminary to Oc-
cupying the Place.
WASHINGTON. July 23.—The following
message has been received at the navy de-
partment from Admiral Sampson :—
Prava, July 22.—Expedition to Nipe
has been entirely successful, although the
mines have not been removed for want of
time. The Spanish cruiser Jorge Juan, de-
fending the place, was destroyed without
loss on our part. The Annapolis and Wasp
afterward proceeded from Nipe to assist in
the landing of the commanding general of
the army on arrival at Porto Rico.
(Signed) “SAMPSON.”
This brief report is really more impor-
tant than appears on the surface. The bay
of Nipe lies on the north coast of Cuba, al-
most directly across the island from San-
tiago. It is purposed to establish a base
there, which will save at least two days’
time in getting supplies into Cuba as com-
pared with the Santiago route. It will
also form a good point of operation against
Holguin, not far distant, and if it should
develop unfortunately that a restraining
hand must be laid upon the Cubans them-
selves, Nipe, in connection with Santiago,
would be an effective means of doing this.

Longest Tow on Record.
Gunboat Iroquois is to haul a Big Supply Ship to
Manila.
The gunboat Iroquois, formerly the tug
Fearless, is about to make the longest tow
ever undertaken. She is to haul the ship
Tacoma from San Francisco to Manila, 6,-
600 miles. The Tacoma is to carry 100
horses and 120 mules and a coal supply.
After the troops going to Manila on the Rio
de Janeiro embarked on that vessel Friday
there remained at Camp Merritt 223 officers
and 7,819 enlisted men, who will be trans-
ferred to the new eamping grounds at the
Presidio. These inculde 3 officers and 381
men of the Tenth Pennsylvania recruits.
The steamer Centennial has been inspected
for the third time, and may yet be engaged
as a transport. The Lakme and Alliance,
of the Alaskan fleet, will probably be em-
ployed to take the New York regiment to
Honolulu.

General Garcia Considers Himself In-
sulted.
Cuban Leader Declares He Was Insulted by Shafter
and Will Go Off and Fight by Himself.—Resigned
the Command of Eastern Forces.—His Reasons are
that He Was Not Notified of Santiago's Surrender
Nor Invited to be Present and that the Spanish
Authorities Were Retained.
General Garcia, the Cuban leader, is in-
censed at the action of Gen’l. Shafter in not
having invited him or any member of his
staff to the ceremonies incident to the
formal surrender of Santiago. He has
written a significant letter to Shafter which
is just now giving the authorities at Wash-
ington no end of worriment, because it
discloses the fact that the Cuban people
expect and will insist upon the United
States turning Cuba over to them imme-
diately upon the down fall of the Spanish.
The cabinet was in session for three
hours on Friday, the longest session it has
held in two months and those in a position
to know, stated after it was over that the
members have come to the conclusion that
Shafter did act indiscreetly and that every
effort will be made to placate the Cubans.
For while the government has learned not
to rely on or expect any material aid from
them it cannot afford to he in the an-
omalous position of fighting for the free-
dom of a people with whom it is at swords
points.
Gen’l. Garcias letter is as follows :
SANTIAGO, July 21.—General Garcia wrote
this morning the letter to General Shafter :
“Major General Shafter, Commander-in-
Chief of Fifth Army Corps of the United
States Army :
*Sir—On May 12th the government of the
Republic of Cuba ordered me as commander
of the Cuban army in the east to co-operate
with the American army, following the plans
and obeying the orders of its commanders.
I have dene my best, sir, to fulfil the wishes
of my government, and I have been until
now one of your most faithful subordinates,
honoring myself in carrying out your orders
and instructions as far as my powers have
allowed me to do it.
“The city of Santiago finally surrendered
to the American army, and the news of that
important victory was given to me by per-
sons entirely foreign to your staff, I have
not been honored, sir, with a single word
from yourself informing me of the negotia-
tions for peace or terms of capitulation by
the Spaniards.
“The important ceremonies of surrender
of the Spanish army and the possession of
the city by yourself took place later on, and
I only knew of both events by the public
reports. I wasneither honored, sir, with a
kind word from you inviting myself or any
other officer of my staff to represent the
Cuban army on that memorable occasion.
“Finally, Iknow that you have left in
power in Santiago the same Spanish au-
thorities that for three years I have fought
as enemies of the independence of Cuba. I
beg to state that these authorities have never
been elected at Santiago by residents of the
city. but appointed by royal decree by the
Queen of Spain. I would agree, sir, that the
army under your command should have
taken possession of the city of Santiago and
garrisoned the forts. I would give my warm
co-operation to any measure you may have
deemed best under American military law to
hold the city for your army and preserve
public order until the time comes to fulfil
the solemn pledge of the people of the United
States to establish in Cuba a free and in-
dependent government. But when the ques-
tion arises of appointing authorities in San-
tiago de Cuba, and under the peculiar cir-
cumstances created by the 30 years of our
struggle against the Spanish rule, I cannot
see but with the deepest regret that such au-
thorities are not elevated by the Cuban peo-
ple and the inhabitants of the city, but are
the same ones selected by the Queen of Spain
and her ministers to defend, against the
Cubans, the Spanish sovereignty.
“A rumor too absurd to be believed, gen-
eral, ascribes the reason of your measure and
of the orders forbidding my army to enter
Santiago to fear of massacres and revenges
against the Spaniards. Allow me, sir, to
protest against even the shadow of such an
idea. We are not savages, ignoring the rules
of civilized warfare. We are a poor, ragged
army. As ragged and poor as was the army of
your forefathers in their noble war for in-
dependence, but, as did the heroes of’ Saratoga
and Yorktown, we respect: too deeply our
cause to disgrace it with barbarism and
cowardice.
“In view of all these reasons I sincerely
regret to be unable to fulfill any longer the
orders of my government, and therefore I
have tendered to-day to the commander-in-
chief of the Cuban army, Major General
Maximo Gomez, my resignation as com-
mander of this section of our army. Await-
ing his resolution I withdraw with my forces
to Jaguari. Very respectfully yours,
“CALIXTO GARCIA.”
CUBANS REGRET GARCIA’S ACT.
In speaking of the matter Domingo
Mendez Capote, vice President of the Cuban
Provisional Republic, gave out a state-
ment in New York on Friday regarding
the strained relations existing between the
American and Cuban armies in Santiago.
He said in part :—
“I have not received any official informa-
tion concerning the reported misunder-
standing between Gen. Garcia and Gen.
Shafter. If there has been any such mis-
understanding I regret it very much. As
to the letter to General Shafter accredited
to Gen. Garcia, if authentic, is states that
Gen. Garcia has referred the matter to our
civil government and to his commander-in-
chief.”
GARCIA’S ARMY MAY DISPERSE.
According to dispatches received from
Santiago on last Thursday Gen. Garcia
may go on and fight the Cubans indepen-
dently of our forces or perhaps he intends
disbanding them.
On Saturday he issued a decree author-
izing all Cubans who have been driven
from their plantations and country homes
by the Spaniards and have taken refuge for
safety in the cities and towns, to return to
the country and go to work on their farms
and plantations, assuring them of protec-
tion by his forces. He has added like per-
mission to those in his ranks who were re-
cruited from the farm lands or were em-
ployed in the fields at the outbreak of the
war.
Altogether, it must be coufessed that
Gen. Garcia's attitude is inexplicable. His
permission to the men in his ranks to go
back on the farms is construed to mean an
effort to disband his forces. But this may
not be altogether justified. It is certain a
great many of them will continue to fight.
Later advices discredit the letter as hav-
ing been written by Garcia and those in a
position to know state that it was written
by Arms, an American newspaper correspon-
dent who is with the Cuban army.
On Saturday Gen. Shafter in abeyance to
directions gfrom Washington wrote Gen.
Garcia a letter explaining his position. He
said that he had invited Garcia to witness
the surrender, but the latter declined to be
present and, futher, that as the war is be-
tween the United States and Spain the mat-
ter of dealing with the Cubans must be left
until it is ended.

Hobson Visits Washington.
Enthusiastic Welcome at the Navy Department for
the Young Hero.
Lieutenant Richmond Pearson Hobson,
the hero of the Merrimac, arrived in Wash-
ington late Friday afternoon direct from
Santiago and received an enthusiastic wei-
come, not only from ahe officials at the
navy department, but from the populace as
well.
Before he had been in the city two hours
he had held consultations with Secretary
Long and President McKinley. His busi-
ness is with regard to recovering the Cris-
tobal Colon and probably one or two other
of the Spanish vessels wrecked in the fight
of July 3rd.
Hobson is the hero of the here znd
his reception by the President, Secretary
Long and other government officials was
most flattering. He bears his honors very
modestly, however, and would prefer to go
aboat his business without attracting atten-
tion.
RECOGNIZED AT THE STATION.
His coming was unheralded except by
newspaper despatches which announced his
arrival in New York on the auxiliary cruiser
St. Paul early Friday morning and his de-
parture for Washington. Officials were not
informed as to the time he was due.
Consequently when the train pulled
into the railway station at 2:33 o'clock
that afternoon, there was no official there
to meet him and his reception was truly
democratic.
He succeeded in escaping observation as
he passed through the train shed, coat and
umbrella in hand, followed by a porter
proudly carrying his bag, but before he
emerged from the station some one spied
him, a hurrah went up from one throat
close by and in a moment the station re-
sounded with voices shouting. He was
dressed in a light suit and wore a straw
hat. The cry of ‘Hobson! Hobson !”’
rang out and the crowd closed about him
shaking his hand and pushing him about
until he was rescued by the police and es-
corted to his carriage. He stopped long
enough to announce that all of the men
who formed the crew of the Merrimac were
safe and in the best of health and that after
he had made his report to the Navy De-
partment he expected to return immediate-
ly to New York.
The Lieutenant drove at once to the
Army and Navy Club, and, after brushing
himself up, he went to the Navy department.
He carried with him under his arm a large
official envelope, which bore in the corner
the inscription, ‘‘North Atlantic Squadron.’
As he approached the office of the Secre-
tary of the Navy there was another demon-
stration. A large crowd had gathered
about the doorway, and the hearty wel-
come it gave the young officer brought
blushes to his cheeks.
SECRETARY LONG’S WELCOME.
Secretary Long came out of his private
office, and, grasping Hobson with both
hands, said with sincerity, ‘‘Lieutenant, I
am glad, very glad, to see you.”” Then he
drew him into his office, where the Lieu-
tenant was introduced to assistant Secre-
tary Allen, and was greeted by Captain
Crowninshield, Captain Bradford and Pen-
sion Commissoner Evans, who happened to
drop in. He spent half an hour in confer-
ence with the Secretary and later visited
the White House.
Secretary Long stated that Hohson did
not bring the long-expected report from
Admiral Sampson and his brother officers
on the destruction of the Cervera fleet. The
purpose of his visit was explained by the
following order, under which Lieutenant
Hobson had come to the United States :—
“U. 8. Flagship New York. First rate, off San-
tiago de Cuba, July 17th, 1898 :—
**Sir :—Yon will proceed North in the St. Paul
to New York. Thence you will prozeed to Wash-
ington and report to the Secretary of the Navy
and acquaint him with the object of your visit, as
set forth in my letter to him of this date, regard-
je the work upon the Cristobal Colon. Explain
toh
im fully the position and condition of that
ship and receive his instructions regarding it.
‘2. Be as expeditious as possibie in bringing
the matter to a termination, in order that, if it is
practicable to do so, this fine ship may he saved
to the United States Navy.
“3. When this duty is completed you will ask
for orders from the Secretary of the Navy. Other-
wise you will return to duty on board this ship.
“Very respectfully,
(Signed) “W. TP. SAMPSON,
When the Lieutenant after his two calls
returned to the club house to rest an in-
formal reception was given him there, and
hundreds of men of note eagerly sought
the honor of grasping his hand.” At the
White House and Navy Department he
was besieged by employees for his auto-
graph, and was kept busy writing his name
when he was not engaged with his superior
officers.
Fifth Corps Needs a Long Vacation,
Doctors Advise That Shafter's Men be Sent to Ameri-
can Mountains to Recuperate.
General Shafter has opened a cable office
at Santiago de Cuba, and is in communica-
tion with Washington regarding the dispo-
sition of the Fifth army corps. Except the
Thirty-third and part of the Thirty-fourth
Michigan none of the reinforcements were
inaction. So far as health considerations
80, General McKibbin seems to have held
the opinion that the Fifth corps could join
the Porto Rico expedition under General
Miles as soon as Santiagoshould fall. This
was the evident intention when the inva-
sion army left the United States, but the
condition of the men now, according to the
physicians and commanding officers, is
such that the entire corps should return
North at once. General Miles has cabled
that he does not want and will not need a
single man among them, and he believes
that after their hard campaign they should
be given a rest of at least two or three
weeks.
General Shafter’s messages to the same
effect have been most urgent, and the doc-
tors say the men should he sent into camp
in the mountains of North Carolina or
Western Maine for a month. Washington
agrees to this, anc. will do everything pos-
sible, the cable dispatches to-day say, to
carry the army away from here. But there
isa lack of transports. The Porto Rico
troops will require 40 steamers. The men
are anxious to get away. The cavalry di-
vision has been sent into the mountains at
its own request, to see if it cannot get into
shape to join General Miles, and if no fe-
ver develops the men may go to San Juan
de Porto Rico.
The Twenty-fourth infantry is acting as
guards and nurses at the hospital at Jura-
gua, and more of them are needed. The
negro troops are all likely to remain here
to attend the sick and hold Santiago. Gen-
eral Shafter has cabled to Washington that
it is imperatively necessary that he should
have more immunes sent to him quickly,
and the probability is that a corps will
leave within the next ten days.
All our men are now encamped on the
fighting line, where they have been for two
weeks, except General Wheeler's men, who
have been sent into the hills. General
Wheeler is still ill, but he resists the pleas
of his friends to return to the United States.
How Queen Christina Views the War.
Her Thought is of the Boy King and for His Sake
She Grieves.—Keeps Up Her Daily Routine.
How does Maria Christina, ‘Queen Re-
gent of Spain, spend her time? While her
soldiers are waiting for the end, knowing
that it can only end one way, what does
Muria Christina, mother of the boy king
and toy king of Spain, think of it all?
Those who are near to the Queen Re-
gent says that she has very much changed
since the war hegan. Not that she has
changed the steadfast habit of her life,
monotonous in its regularity.
The Queen is always called, summer
and winter, at 6 o'clock, and, before sit-
ting down to the enormous amount of pri-
vate and official correspondence which has
to be dealt with every day she always at-
tends Mass in the private chapel of what-
ever palace the court is inhabiting ; and
lest some of her son’s advisers should find
fault with her for doing so, the Queen
made it a rule to rise an hour earlier than
she would otherwise do, in order that no
one should be able to say that her religious
exercises interferred with her duties as
Queen Regent. After Mass the Queen
pays a visit to her children and arranges
how they are to spend the day, and by 8
o’clock she is ready to receive her Secreta-
ries and devour the Spanish and foreign
newspapers for news of the war’s progress.
The Queen has formed no intimacies
among her ladies during this trying time ;
she is in daily communication with her
mother, but the only human being of
whom she ever asks advice is the Pope,
who has often brought his wide knowledge
of modern diplomacy on difficult cases sub-
mitted to him by Her Most Catholic Maj-
esty. In peace or war Leo XIII is the
Queen’s sole confidant.
At noon the Queen and her children
have lunch. The King was first present at
this meal when he was ‘only sixteen
months old ; he sits to the right of his
mother, but he is not encouraged to talk,
or behave differently to any ordinary well
bred child.
All these habits the Queen Regent ad-
heres to with the greatest care. What dif-
ference then, has the war made to this
woman who sees her country about to re-
ceive the blow that settles forever its claim
to being a nation entitled to respect? It
has simply intensified the ruling passion of
her life—her love for her son, Alphonso
XIII, King of Spain. What matters it to
the Queen Regent whether she be Queen or
citizenness, except that her son be glorified
by the royal position ? The little King is
her one thought by day, her last thought
at night, and her waking thought at dawn.
Frequently he is her thought at hours
when the palace is hushed in slumber, for
so careful is she of the health of the boy
King that she has had fixed into her own
bed a speaking tube which communicates
with his cot, so that she can hear whether
or not he is breathing properly during the
night.
The Queen mother has made it the ob-
ject of her life to preserve for her son the
throne of Spain. She has never had any
idea of going back to Austria. While a
plank remains of the crumbling structure
on which is reared the Spanish dynasty she
will remain in Spain for her son’s sake.
Every blow from the Americans is a blow
at her mother’s heart, not at her queenly
pride.
She has proved herself to be a woman of
strong common sense, tact and courage.
Although great sympathy was expressed
for the widow Queen and her children at
the time of the late King’s death, it was
thought impossible that she could govern
the turbulent and headstrong people
among whom she had come as an entire
stranger and alien so short a time before
she was called upon to assume the reins of
government. She applied herself to the
difficult task before her, and when the
news went forth that Spain had once more
a king, it had become generally recognized
that in Queen Christina the country had
found a wise and strong ruler.
In this time of trouble for Spain the
Spaniards are recalling an old story of the
difficulty in finding a suitable name for the
boy. The history of Spain was ransacked
with the view to finding some name which
should recall ancient glory and ensure fu-
ture fame. The Queen, however, declared
that the only proper name for her son was
that of his father, and this in spite of the
fact that he would, in that case be Alphonso
XIII. She was upheld in her decision by
the Pope, who himself offered to be god-
father to the fatherless king ; and the fact
that the greatest Pope of modern days was
the thirteenth of his name was pointed out
as being a good augnry.
Alphonso XIII was proclaimed King on
the day of his birth, and as was to be ex-
pected, the baby sovereign soon became the
most popular figure in Spanish life.
Queen Christina is one of those women
who never shirk unpleasant possibilities,
and in this has possibly lain her strength ;
she is only too well aware that her son may
yet live a portion of his life, as have so
many other kings, in exile, and, according-
ly, she early arranged that Alphonso XIII
should thoroughly learn his mother
tongue—that is, German. English the boy
King has spoken from infancy, owing to
the fact that, as seems to be s0 often the
case in foreign courts, his nurse was a
Scotch woman, while his first teacher was
an Irish lady. But Alphonso was, if any-
thing, too precocious, so that his brain has
not heen over-fatigued, and his mother her-
self taught him to read and write.
More Troops for Merritt.
Brigadier General Otis’ Command Embarks on the
Rio Janeiro.
The troops going to Manilla on the trans-
port Rio Janeiro left Camp Merritt Friday
and marched to that vessel. The soldiers
received an ovation as they passed through
San Panine streets on the way to the
dock.
The Rio sailed on Saturday with two
battalions of the First South Dakota In-
fantry, recruits of the Utah Light Artil-
lery, fifty-three recruits of Fifth Corps and
others attached to Brigadier General Otis’
headquarters ; in all fifty officers, 846 en-
listed men and ten civilians. Brigadier
General Otis will command the expedition.
One thousand more troops for Manila
sailed on Wednesday on theSt. Paul. The
Arizona and Scandia can each take 1500
men, If they are sent to Manila with
troops the number of men sent will amount
t0 19,000. General Merritt's friends say
he will be satisfied with that number in
spite of the fact that 3,000 troops belonging
to the Philippine expeditionary force will
be left behind.
Quartermaster Long has received instruc-
tions to charter no more vessels, but Gen-
Merrian has not received orders to discon-
tinue sending troops to the Philippines.
The removal of the division hospital from
Camp Merritt to the Presidio means more
than its location on a better site, for the
invalids will now be quartered in comfort-
able brick buildings.

wounded and reported missing, but had
been sent home.

That tired feeling is exceedingly common and
dangerously significant. It is a warning which
must be heeded, or, as with the express train
which fails to regard the danger signal, disaster
must follow. It is a sure indication of thin. weak,

blood is not properly feeding the nerves, tissues

Weak, nervous, tired men and women are
found everywhere. Men strive too hard to
“keep their business up,” women work too much
