For Defeat George A. Jenks.
From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
And so Mr. f Jeorge A. Jinks, of Jeffer
son county, is to Itad the Iiemucracy of
Pennsylvania to slaughter. Mr. Jenks
I a Iniocrat of the Old Komaii stripe,
eonservative, hidebound, rc-pectabie.
Mr. Jciiks makes a god llgtirehcad for
the party. lie is personally an ngreeaLIe
gentleman, a good lawyer and au boneM
citizen. He deserve a better fate.
Tbe Democracy of Pennsylvania stauds
for free silver and Ilryanixm, and an Mr.
Jenks worked hard for both two years
ago, bin selection is altogether fii He be
long to tbat lass of men who swallow
party platforms without a grimace, and
will lead bin party ninjestically to defeat.
The Old Koman trtisiunsii v. ill attract no
outside following; it can ouly hope to
bold the liryan faction of the party
t"tr'ther for the campaign of 1'iki.
The attempted diversion of cold Dem
ocrats in favor of Jiidve tiordou failed
completely. This ek-tticnt tried to make
ipiu! out ol the a I (turd rumor thai Sena
tor Quay was working for Jenks. We
lire not in the political secrets of either
iay or tiordon, but the idea that Sena
tor i:iay either desired to interfure at
Allootis or bail any occasion U) do so is
ridiculous. All that was needed was to
let the Democrats aline, and they w ere
sure to blunder. Juljrp i:ir:l in had the
bearty eo-operalioii of the Van Valkeu-Lerg-Blir.kenliurg
Combine together
with all tuose suljMdi.ed organs in tins
city who yelp obediently when the Wan
amaker advertisement is held before
them. It has been pitiful to note the
eagerness w hich Home of these organs
have displayed in their efforts to pet or
retain this valuable piece of political
patronage I'.ut even tliis remarkable
combination of gold Democrats, kicking
Republicans and sulidi.ed new spapers
could not offset tho liourboii lemocrsi-y,
which, true to its traditions, selected a
man of no political strength.
There bas I10e.11 a nice little conspiracy
in the kicking branch of the Republican
party to force the nomination of Judge
onion, who is nominally a Democrat,
but who has refused to say bow he voted
it) 1 slul Mr. Wauamaker has not Iteeir
disjvosed to run on an independent ticket,
and now that Judge iJordoti is shelved,
it will lie interesting to see w hat be will
do next. It really makes little differ
ence. Colonel Stone will have the largest
majority ever giveu allepubli-an Gov
ernor in this State, and he will deserve it.
Tbe Democratic plan to run the cam
paign on State issues w ill fail. There is
no State issue for tae Democracy. Tbe
Republican party w ill w in w ith its ex
cellent candidates, its impeachable plat
form, and will march to success to the
Name tunes that lead our armies abroad
to victory. This is a Kepublican year.
"Jenks and Free Silver" is m slogan for
Pennsylvania. It caunot boid even tbe
Bryan Democracy together. The Repub
lican party stands to day for the best
statesmanship of the country. It stands
for Dewey and Sampson and Schley and
Shatter. Jt stands for humanity, for lib
erty, and prosperity. There wiil hi no
deserlion of Republicanism this year.
Jenks is weil enough as a figure-heal,
but Democracy i:t Pennsylvania is as
dead as Julius Caesar.
The Altoona convention has done its
work of destruction. It bas dissolved,
anu nothing is left of it but a respectable
ticket, a demoralize! organ i rat ion aud
the expUxled theory of free silver. Peace

American Troops Capttira ths Outposts
After Two Days Hard righting.
Tbe bomlwrdtnent of Santiago began at
noon yesterday (Tuesday) and at three
o'clock tt wan reported in Washington
tbat the city bad surrendered to General
Shatter. Tbe report could not be con
tinued at tbe War Department, where a
dispatch bail been received from tietu
Shafter, which the officials refused to
make public. It told of the entrance of
Pando's reinforcements, despite tbe
strong effort of Gen. Garcia to prevent
the junction. Paudo'a force numbers
about 5,000 men.
General Shafter, who was to have be
gun tbe bombardment of Santiago at 10
o'clock Monday morning, postponed tbe
shelling until noou Tuesday, at tbe ur
gent request of all tbe foreign consuls in
tbe city, in order tbat tbe helpless non
combatants, to tbe numberof :i),0u0, might
reach a place of safety. Sunday morning
General Shafter addressed note to tbe
commanding general of the Spanish
forces, giving him until 10 o'clock Mon
day morning to surrender, and ask
ing hitn to advise residents of foreign
countries and women and children to
leave tbe city. Tbe Spanish General
Toral replied that he would not surrend
er the city, and then it was that tbe for
eign consuls requested Shafter to postpone
shelling tbe city.
TIEST BULLETINS OF THE BATTLE.
Tbe War Department received tbe fol
lowing on Friday, 1st inst, at 5 o'clock
p. in., from General Shafter, dated at Sib
oney :
"Had a very heavy engagement to-day,
which lasted from 8 a. m. until sundown.
Ve have carried their outer works and
are now iu possession of theun
"There is now about three-quarters of
a mile of opeu between my lines and tbe
city.
"By morning troops will be entrenched
and considerable augmentation of forces
will be there.
"General Lawton's divisions and Gen
eral Bate' brigade, which have been en
gaged all day in carrying El Caney,
w hich was accomplished at i p. m., will
be in line and in front of Santiago during
the night.
"I regret to say that our casualties w ill
be above m. Of these, not many killed.
(Signed) "Shafter."
SPANISH KETItKAT BKOINS.
At 1 o'clock this afternoon, after five
hours' terrific fighting, tbe Spanish be
gan to leave their entrenchments and re
retreat into the city. Many Americans
were wounded aud are being brought in.
( )ne limn bad both arms shot off and was
wounded in tbe hip, but was laughing.
AMF.CIi'AN IXJSS IS HEAVY.
The fighting continued until dark. Oar
forces carried the enemy's outer works
and have occupied them this evening.
The battle will probably be resumed at
davi.reak.
Tbe American loss is heavy. Some esti
mates place it at ."" killed and wounded.
MAdMKll'EXI MAXKrVKRIXtiS.
Siuoxey, July 2. Tbe first day's battie
was magnificent. Tbe Americans attack
ed the Spanish from three directions.
Iawton and Wheeler's forces assailed
Caney, northeast of Santiago, Gen. Kent's
men advanced on Aguadc-res, Garcia and
the Cubans attacked Caney from the
southeast, and tbe other divisions of tbe
army advanced upon Santingo from th
east. The Americans presented a solid
front from tbe coast to Santiago's north
ern defenses, and the line never wavered.
Toe men wore filled with an eager enthu
siasm aud their oilicers had a hard time
in restraining them from impetuous
rushes.
The Saniards fought desperately to
hold Caney, but in vain. Foot by foot
our troos drove theiu back. The fight
ing of the infantry here w as superb. The
tn-jtt of the lice were ably assisted by the
Hough Riders aud other dismounted cav
alry. The t'oops, late in the afternoon,
successfully drove tbe Spaniards out of
Caney, and occupied-tbe place, but only
after desperate figuting. Caney is an im
portant strategic pointy From this vil
lage a direct road leads to Santiago, which
will prove valuable in the advance upon
the city.
The land fighting was desperate all
along the line, the Spaniards stoutly re
sisting the advance of the Americans at
San Juau and Aguadores; slowly but
surely the Spanish had to give ground,
and darkness found the American lines
presenting a solid front from the coast to
Kl Cauey, thus hemming the Spaniards
in tbe city and cutting off all means of
retreat to the interior.
AMERICAN" LOSS HEAVY.
Washisotox, July 2. The War De
partment shortly after 10 o'clock to-day
received the following dispatch from Gen
eral Shafter
"I fear X have underestimated our loss.
Must have fully equipped hospital ship at
once and additional medical otlicera and
suppl-e-s. Also a launch."

We have tbe town well invested on tbe

Upon approaching it we find it of such a
character and tiie defenses so strong it will
be impossible to carry it by storm with
my present force.
Our losses up to date will aggregate a
thousand, but the list has not yet been
made. Rut little sickness, outsido of

with some difficulty on account of rains,
but I will be able to use it for the pres

' Washix;to5T, D. C, Juj 4. The Secretary of the Navy has re
ceived the following:
"Plata, via Uajti, 2:15 a. m., July 5. To Secretary Navy
Siboney, July 3d.
"The fleet under my command offers the nation as a 4th of July
present the destruction of the whole of Cervera's fleet. No one escaped.
It attempted to escape at 9 :30 a. m., and at 2 p. m. the last, the Cristo
bal Colon, had run ashore, sixty miles west of Santiago, and had let down
her colors. The Infanta Maria Teresa, Otjuendo and Vizcaya wore
farced ashore, burned and blown np within twenty miles of Santiago,
the Furor and Tluton were destroyed within four miles of the port.
Loss, one killed and two wounded. Enemy's loss probably several hun
dred from gun fire, explosions and drowning. About 1,300 prisoners,
including Admiral Cervcra. The man killed wa3 Geo. II. Ellis, chief
veoman of the Brooklyn.

The following message was sent to Admiral Sampson to-day by
the President :
" To Admiral Sampson, Playa del Este. You have the gratitude
and congratulations of the whole American people. Convey to your
noble officers and crews, through whose valor new honors have been ad
ded to the Americans, the grateful thanks and appreciation of the nation.
WM. McKIXLEY."
Washington, D. C, July 4. The complete annihilation of the
Spanish squadron at Santiago and the capture of the Spanish admiral,
Ccrvera, with 1,300 prisoners; the demand by Gen. Shafter for the sur
render of Santiago by 12 o'clock to-morrow noon on pain of bombard
ment ; word from Admiral Dewey -that the Ladrone islands had been
captured, that a Spanish gunboat had surrendered, that a hundred or
more Spanish officers and men were taken and that our first Philippine
expedition had landed this ;is in part the thrilling record of such a
Fourth of July as has not been known eince the bells of Independence
Hall rang out the tidings of American freedom.
It was a day when one momentous event followed another incon
stant and rapid succession, each hour bringing forth some new feature
more startling than what had gone before. The climax came at 1 o'clock
when, amid the wildest cheering, which fairly shook the great war, state
and navy building to its foundation, Admiral Sampson's dispatch an
nouncing his glorious victory and the destruction of the Spanish fleet,
was given to the public. '
CERVERA CAPTURED.
Splendid
Victory for Sampion't Groat
Figaterf.
ENTIRE SPANISH FLEET DESTROYED.
Admiral Cervera's fleet, which was
"b wUed up" in tbe brlor 'f Santiago
since May IVtth. made a dan Jg attempt to
run tbe gf un'.lct of American warships
that havi leu guarding the entrance to
the burl or on Sunday morning and, after
a baitl- --ouliuuiug for two hours, was
completely annihilated. The pride of the
Spanish navy, four cruisers, the Cbristo
bal Colon, Almiranta Oqnendo, lntanta
Maria Teresa, Vizcaya, and two tarpedo
boaUs, the Furor and the Pluton, riddled
by shot and shell and burned to the wa
ter's edge, lie along the shore west of
Monro Castle. Thirteen hundred Spauisu
officers and sailors, and Admiral Oervera,
himself wounded, are prisoners of war.
Only one Aaericau sailor was killed
and one wounded, and tbe American
ships are practically uninjured.
Cervera's dash for liberty was one of
the ni-Mt gallant efforts recorded In naval
history. Iu tho of overwhelming
odds, with nothing before hioi but inevi
table destruction or surrender, he made
a boid daslt for the haritor at a tune when
tbe Americans least expected him to do
so, aud, fighting every inch of the way,
even when his ships were ablaze and
sinking, he tried to escape from inevita
ble destruction.
Admiral Sampson, on the flagship Xew
York, left tlsa blockading station at an
early hour Sunday morning' and stemmed
seven miles to the eastward for a consul
tation with General Shafter, after two
days' fighting between tbe forces of the
opposing nations. At "-..TOoclock tbe look
out of tbe fleet discovered smoke rising
from the entrance to the harbor, and a few
minutes later it was seen tbat C rvera's
tlaghip, the Christolial Colon, was beaded
for ti e American fleet. She was followed
by the other Spanish vessels, all under
a full bead of stes m. Commodore Schley,
from the Brooklyn, signaled the Ameri
can warships to rush inshore, and for two
hours they followed the flying Spaniards
to tbe westward, sin ding shct afier shot
kintn their blazing hulls. Tb- Spaniards
showed no signs of surrender, evi n when
their ships were sinking, but they turned
beads toward the shore and ran Ihein on
tbe beach and rocks, where their destruc
tion was soon completed. The officers
and men who escaoed the s4Ttn o" Amer
ican bullets pitched tbemserves into the
surf aud made their way to k e si ore. as
sisted by boats from the Am-ricui fleet.
Five o . the si x Spanish ships m beach
ed and burning and the only one left, tbe
flagship Cristolial Color, tbe fiwUwl of the
fleet remained afloat. She w Kteauiing
away at great speed, hotly pu noted by
the Iowa, Texas, Xew York, ifiooklyn
and Oregon, whose shells set her on fire.
With many of his guns dismantled and
escape shut off Cervera headed for tbe
rocks. She struck bow first ant '. lested
there. Sbe was hopelessly lost ai.d burn
ing fiercely when the American Jiunera
ceased firing. Hosts weir sent t rewtie
the living of her crew. Admiral Cervera
scacd to tbe shore on a boat sec t by tbe
Gloucester, which liefore the Tar was
J. I'ierpont Morgan's yacbt Cora-iir, and
as soon as he reached the Iteah surrend
ered himself and his men. I t ked to
I taken on board tbe (Jloooaster, where
lie was received by Ooiomajider "VVai n -wright,
who took him by the bfdd and
mid : I congratulate yoo. sir, uf i hav
ing made as gallant a firht natm ever
witnessed on tbe sea." The commander
placed his cabin at the difqxinal mt the
Spanish officers.
There is no telling now wlnt tbe Spau
isb loss was, but it is belief ed to have
Ier. vjr heavy, as the prist ners in cus
tody report their decks strewn with dead
and wounded. A large number t the
Spanish wounded were reutoved to the
American ships.

three named was given at f:,rm0,(M each.
Cervera sailed straight for tbe Cspe
Verde Islands, where he learned of tbe
declaration of war, and sailed on April
2Liih from St. Vincent. AVhat his purpose
wss no one in this country knew, aud
opinion was divided as to whether be bad
gone home or started for America. A few
days later word came from the French
Island of Martinique that Cervera had
arrived there. Cervera was badly in need
of coal; his machinery ueeded repairs.
He ran across the Caribliean Sea and put
in at the Dutch port of YVillinstaJ.on the
Island of Curacna. Our Consul kept the
fleet from entering the harbor, and all tbe
coal Cervera could get was three hundred
tons of condemned slack coal, for which
be paid $lfi,(WQ. Cervera was expected to
make a dash for Havana or some other
Cuban port. Commodore Schley was or
dered to meet tbe enemy. Scout ships
scoured the southern coast of Cuba. The
SL Iuis cut the caoles at Santiago the
day before Cervera arrived there. He
slipped into the well-do ended harbor
witbsjt being seen by any of tbe Amer
ican ships. A few days later Commodore
Schley "bottled up" tbe enemy. Samp
son joined him a short time afterward.
Before tho Big Battle.
Daylight to-morrow, Friday, will see a
movement ot tbe Fifth division, under
Gen. Lawton, to a new base north and
east of Sautiago. All this morning (Jen.
Garcia's Cubans have been moving from
their hill camp on the east and have been
passing headquarters at almost a dog
trot.
Assuming that 4,000 men will be de
ployed on the northeast with the Ameri
can advance, one mass or net is now
drawing close around the doomed city.
General Lawton's men will move at
daybreak.
Three miles east of their present posi
tion there rises a narrow ridgo in the San
tiago valley. Southward from here tbe
troops can look down on Caney, tiny,
picturesque, old and once a thriving
Spanish town, almost at their feet.
Three miles west, crowning a low ridge
that crofses the Santiago valley, are seen
Spanish barracks and a largo red build
ing over which floats tbe Red Cross socie
ty's flag. This is the Reina Mercedes
hospital, where, according to all pacifico
accounts, are now located Hobson and
tbe beroio seven.
The valley, three miles wide, wonld be
a garden spot in time of peace. ' Now it is
filled with a rank tropical growth, cover
ing almndoned plantations. On tbe north
is a brosd plateau accessible by a good
road. This is the key to Santiago. Ar
tillery there could command tbe city and
force the Spaniards to evattate or to
storm the Leigths to capture tbe battery.
Tbe laUer course tbe Americans consider
extremely unlikely.
Gen. Lawton and bis command from
the ridge will first take Caney. A slight
skirmish is expected, but nothing seri
ous, the captured pacificos ail alleging
that the Spanish main force which was
here four day s.ago bas now tteen with
drawn into Santiago in pursuance of
gcueral plan of concentration.

DAY'S THRILURG STORY.
Sampioa, Shafter and Dewey Gifo it to tie
World ia Brief Telegrami-WaUoa
Will Taoklo 8pain-
Wkhiwimx. D. C. July 4--The stoty
oft-day is best told in tbe series of
official dispatches, eacb bearing dale of
July 4, from Sampson, from SbaRer aud
Dewey. Stirring as they all are, thst of
Sampsou was awwrded the honor of chief
importance, not only for the immediate
results secured, but also from the efforts
of this crushing defeat in weakeniug the
dofeu.-es of the city or Santiago and in
dealing Spain such a sUgjering blow
lht she is J nil practically without a navy.
Although brief. Admiral Sampsou'sdis-paU.-h
tolls tbe story of fearful destruc
tion. It not ouly discloses tbe tremend
ous prowess of the American fleet, but it
again displayed the strange immunity
which tbe American sailor soems to have
iu the midt of death aud carnage. That
but one of our sailors, a yeoman on tbe
Brooklyn, should have been killed ir. an
engagement of this magnitude is without
parallel in navy annals, save in tbat other
unparalleled record which Dewey made
at Manilla. With tbe Spauish fleet de
stroyed, the way is pretty clear Tor the ad
vance of the Ameiican squadron, into the
harbor of Santiago.
Gen. Sbafter's strong position was
shown in a series of dispatches. Most
convincing of all as to his feeling of con
fidence and strength was that di
patcb given out late iu the day iu which
Gen. Shafter gives tbe text of bis demand
for the surreuder or the city by noon of
the.'rth. v
Gen. Sbafter's other dispatches breathe
tbe same air of confidence and determin
ation as shown in bis demand on the
Spanish commander. Tbe first one made
pXiblic during tbe day stated tbat his lines
completely surrounded the town from
the bay on the north to San Juan river on
tht south, leaving the city enveloped
by a stretch of water on one side and a
stretch or rrownjjig American guns on
the other. Iu another dispatch Gen.
Shafter epitomized the strength of his
position by saying :
"I feel that I am master of tbe situation
and can hold tbe enemy for any length of
time."
The pressing need of reinforcing Shaf
ter is no longer felt, now tbat the Spauish
fleet is out of tbe way. A considerable
number of men, however, are il ready on
tbe way and others will follow.
Tbe changed uaval situation will bring
no abatement in tbe activity of the au
thorities here in carrying the war di
rectly home to Spain.
There is renewed determination to got
Commodore Watson's eastern squadron
away at tho earlisst moment for the dou
ble purpose of striking a blow at the coast
towns of Spain and of pursuiug Admiral
Camara's fleet, which bas halted at the
entrance of the Suez canal. Secretary
Long made the official statement to-day
that tho fleet would sail at the earliest
possible moment, and although he did
not go into details as to its purpose, it is
well understxd that it will devote its
attention to the Spanish coast and to
Camanu Tho destruction of the Spanish
fleet at Sautiago relieves Admiral Samp
son from survcileauce of this squadron,
and he can readily spare thesbips intend
ed fir the attack ou tbe Spanish coast.

Wheeler Will Fight for Hia Seat.
Tho Governor of Alnbnma intends to
deprive General Wheeler of his se.U in
Congress, and will call a apt rial election
to lil) an alleged vacancy iu his distiict
on the 1st of August. General Wheeler
wants to be both a Congressman and a
Major General, aud, by his interpretation
of the Constitution and the laws, feels au
thorized to bold both offices. He took
General Sickles for his example. Tbe
latter is a Major General on the retired
list of the Army, and served several
terms in Congress as a Representative of
a Xew York district.
Wben tho Auditor of the Treasury re
fused to pay his salary be appealed to the
Court of Claims, which decided tbat there
was no objection to his filling two officer,
b?it he could not draw pay for more than
one. General Sickles, therefore, contin
ued to call upon the t aymaster of the
Army, but did not ask for bis salary as a
Congressman. General Whoeler propoe
ed to do tho same. He desired to beep
the seat in Congress without pay, as he
did not expect tbe war to be prolonged
bevond the Is'ginning of the next sessior.
Tbe Governor of Alalwma, however, has
secured an opinion from tbe Attorney
General of that State, who declares that
General Wheeler vacated his seat as a
member of Congress when be accepted a
commission in tbe United States Army,
aud it is therefore lawful and necessary to
call for a new election. General Wheel
er's friends say tbat he will undoubtedly
contest the seat, and the House will have
to decide whether a mat) can serve in both
the legislative and military branches cf
the Government at the same time. Wash

mencement of Yale University was held
to-day, njore than 700 students being
graduated. The degree of Doctor of Lnws

and tbat of Doctor of Letters upon Rus

President McKiuley's name was pie-
sen tad by Professor Fisher, who spoke as
follows :
have the honor to present to ynt, for
tbe degree of Iks-tor of Iaws, in alwentia,
bis Kxeclleticy, William McKinley, Pres
ident of the United States. Allow me to
say to this audience that President Mc
Kinley gratefully received the invitatiou
to visit the university ou this occasion,
and to receive from iu authorities this
mark of honor and appreciation.
"He has looked forward with cordial
anticipation to the opportunity of meeting
In person the assembled alumni. But at
the lust moment the pressure of public
duties constrains him to resign his cher
ished purpose, and to deter his intended
visit till a more propitious day.
"To rehearse the career of President
McKinley would be to repeat a chapter of
American history that is tamiliar to all.
Iu times past he has exemplified the vir
tues of tho soldier. In recent troubled
days he has tom bed the heart of the peo
ple by the calmness and self-commaud of
the true statesman. He bas acted upon
tbe principle that if war is tbe last resort
of kings, it should not be loss tbe last re
sort of republics."

black cloud on the horizou, one tbat does
not affect us personally, but which evokes

"Watching this terrible war, we are
