An important war couucil was held at the White Ilouee, alteuded by the Secretary of War, the Secretary of the Navy, General Miles and the War Board. It was decided to hasten re inforcements to General Shafter and to call for 50,000 more volunteers. The Presideut adheres to his pur pose to delay the invasiou of Western Cuba for the investment of Havana until the rainy season is over. The Marblehead, St. Paul, Suwa nee and Dolphin again bombarded the fortifications ut Caliuanera. It is believed many Spaniards were killed in the engagement. A hot brush between some Spanish troops and a reconoitering party in steam cutters occurred at Santiago Saturday morning The New York's cutter was bit several times, but uo one was injured. The Texas aud the Vixen scattered the Spaniards. The Yankee arrived at Sautiago and reported that on Monday she had exchanged shots with a Spanish gun boat off'Cienfuegos. It is said in Madrid that Captain General Augusti has resigned the Military leadership in Manili. Advices from Honolulu, by way of Victoria, B. C, say the first Phillip. . pine expeditiiion sailed from that place on Juno 4, and according tq calculations should be at Manila now. General Merritt has designated the commands to comprise the third ex pedition to the Philippines. The work of preparing the transports is being rushed, and the troops may sail the latter part of the week. New rifles have been received by the first and sixteeoih Penna. Ilegts. at Chicamauga, and these, with other commands at the camp, are being rapidly put in shape for active ser vice. Orders for a movemeut south ward are expected in a few days. The Navy Department called for bids for three battleships, to be pat terned after the Illinois, Reports from the Havana block ading squadron say that the men are growing tired of patrol duty. The week's campaign in Eastern Cuba has resulted in the practical demolition of the outer fortifications of Santiago. The Cubans maintain a close cor don about Guantanamo. Tne Marblehead and Texas had a narrow escape in the harbor of Cairn auera. Each ship struck a contact miue, but the latter failed to explode. It is believed in Madrid that Cam era's fleet is on its way to the Philip pines and that his sailing may delay the loss of the Philippines. It is asserted at Gibralter that six traus-atlantic steamers, having on board 4,000Spanisb troop9,accoujpany Admiral Camera's fleet. Lieut. Ilobson and the other heroes of the Merriraac are still held as pris oners at Moro Castle, Santiago, and considerable difficulty is being met with in the eudeavor to exchange Spanish prisouers for them, but it is hoped that their release will soon be obtained. When Secretary Alger reached his office in Washington yesterday morn ing he was informed that the trans ports with 15,000 troops had arrived safely off Santiago, and that direct cable communication had been estab lished between the United States and Guantonarao where the Uuited States marines now hold possession ofCuban soil. Thus not only is Captain Gen eral Blanco cut off from any commu nication with the outside world, save with the Key West cables under our control, but the authorities in Wash ington have been placed in close con nection with our forces, army and navy, which are conducting the in vasion of Cuba. The United Slates army for the in vasion of Cuba, commanded by Gen- eral Shafter, arrived off Santiago Da Cuba Monday at noon. The troops numbering about 10,000 men were on board thirty-seven transports. The time aud place for the laudiog of the soldiers had not been decided upon. Though t lie fleet ofinvasinn makes only eight knots per hour, that amouuts to 1M2 knots a day, which will be entirely satisfactory to an in fantrvman. Every patriotic American who goes abroad this year must pay a war tax of So on his ticket, besides a small per cent on the total amount he pro poses to blow in while away. Nocturnal bushwhacking seems to be the Spanish tactics against cur troops wheu they land. Tho Span iards Lave discovered that they aim as well in the dark as by daylight. Suing for peace in Madrid is said to he deferred because the army is opposed to giving up auy territory. It follows that Spain is already un der the control of a military despot ism. It will be easy euough to get back the bulwarks of the Monroe doc- ine after we shall have destroyed le bulwarks of au uncivilized nation at starves its own subjects, pillages its own cities and loots its owu treas- ry. The regulations governing enlist ments under the second call provide that single men shall bavo a prefer ence. It is a useless provision, how ever, in view of the fact that most of the volunteers 6ecm to marry imme diately after beiug mustered iuto the service. In tho year 1897 Great Britain and her colonies bought from us grain and other articles valnsd at $600, 000,000, and sent to us merchandise worth 240,000,000, leaving a bal auco in our favor of $360,000,000. In a commercial way there is alrea y a practical alliance betwesn the two countries. In exchanging Ilobson's crew it is likely that the Spaniards will insist upou n ratio that will liberate all the prisoners the Americans have cap tured. They have the advantage of knowing that we can well afford to comply with their terms, even if the arrangement should be made to includo all the prisoners we expect to capture. Our sympathies go out to the Hon. Jerry Simpson, the white Indian from Medicine Lodge. In an impassioned speech tho other day he told this na tion, a nation that is expeuding a million dollars a day te end Spanish cruelties in Cubu, that we did not need a larger army and navy, al though if we had had the WBr might never have been begun. He also said, if he was correctly reported, that all annexation was wrong aud that we must get back to the policy of our forefathers unless we wanted to go to the dogs. Even before that time so eminent a man as John James Ingalls had taken practically the same view with regard to the army aud navy and coast defenses, and yet now the Kansas Republicans for whom Ingalls then spoke have come out for the an nexation of Hawaii and the construe tion of the Nicarauga Canal. The world movos, whether the Populists know it or not. The large circle of Hon. W. O. Smith's friends will bear with pleasure that he was most emphatically en dorsed for Congress by the Jefferson couuty Republicans at their primaries last baturdaj'. His opponent flooded the county with an auonymous and most msolent circular attackiue Mr. Smith's legislative record, rehashing a number of the worn-out falsehoods peddled over the State by the Wana- maker fewallow aggregation, but as an evidence of how bis constituents look upon the matter it is only nec essary to glance at the returns, where it is fuuud Mr. Smith had over eight hundred majority.wiuning with hands down. The counties of Pennsylvania would indeed be fortunate if they all had such representatives as V. O. Smith in the legislature, and wheu the people of Jefferson county turu him down for the record he has made tbey deserve to go unrepre sented altogether. But we are pleased to note they have a just appreciation of good and faithful servants, and are keeping them to the front S. C. P. Jones, Milenbnrg, Pa., writes : "I have used UoWitt's Littlo Early Risers ever since tliey were introduced here and must sav I 1ihv pills in my family during forty years of iiuusb Keeping uiai gave such satisfactory results as a laxative or cathartic."

"Spain is noted for her Wines. It's pretty near time," says the Mauayunk Philosopher, " for a final consignment of her wines to be sent to the Powers." Hopkins soils tho clothing and shoes. It is said that while Captain Sigsbeo is very in uch pleased with the auxiliary cruiser, St. Paul, he thinks that the ship is too big. "She is a tenth of a mile long," he said, recently, "and when I send a man aft bo seldom comes back until after dinner." The popular shirts are at Miles A Armstrong's at prices to suit yoo. It There is a vacancy in tho postofflce at Strodo's Mills, Pa., for the first timo in S3 years. It is caused by the death of Jo seph Strode at the ago of 84, who was ap pointed postmaster by President James K. Polk, October 21, 1845, and held the office continuously ever since. Leave your order for a suit or pair of trousers this week at Miles fc Anns strong's, it Pennsylvania has six regiments at Chickaruauga, more than any other State. At any hour In the day and in any part of the camp Pennsylvania soldiors may be seen. They am a gentlemanly lot of fellows and havo mado a most excellent impression on the other soldiers. From a number of onr exchanges we learn that a new swindling scheme has boon launched on tho public. It is known as the silk awindlo. The firm(T) send out circulars clTering, in order to intro duce their goods, 10 yards of silk for $1. lt'sa'raud pure and simple, so don't bite unless you wish to get sold. Tho standard of Spain may fall, but the standard of high-grade clothing at Miles & Armstrong's will always re main, it Here's one which tho Ruflalo Courier claims was too hard for his Honor Mayor Dlehl of that place : Pewey 1, Schley 02, Sampson 022. After vaiuly endeavoring to decipher the "cipher," he called for an explanation, which was given as follows: Dewey won, Schley ought to, and Samp son ought to too. The Ifith Regiment will not bo Bent to Cuba. It is a "bob-tail" or eight com pany regiment, and General Brooke has decided that only twelve company regi ments shall go to the front. However their friends and families at home may view the matter, there is no doubt that tho boy 8 themselves will be keenly dis appointed. The town of Gordon, Schuylkill coun ty, was the scene the other day of a most unique flag-raising. A steel wire had been stretched from one mountain peak to another across the town, and from this a huge flag was suspended. The height of tho mountain top above Briddlo street is 950 feet, and tho flag is 800 feet above the ground. Tho length of tho wire is 2,600 feet or almost exactly hair a mile. The flag is 19 by 30 feet. The Kith Regiment, says the Chatta nooga Times, comes from the oil regions of Pennsylvania, and there is consider able talk of placing a largo force of tho enlisted men in charge of tho well drill ing at Chickamauga. One of the officers yesterday remarked : "We havo plenty of men in this regiment who could rush this well-drilling through iu a hurry. The present force has boon ton days try ing to drill a well in this camp and has about completed one-half of their task. I am confident our men could put down a well in thirty-six hours." Ex-Senator John J. Ingalls, of Kan sas, whose fame as a brilliant writer, a man of remarkable scholarship and liter ary attainmonis, is even greater than that ot the distinguished Senator, announces a new book on the subject of the Amori-can-Spauish-Cuban War. It is entitled "America's War for Humanity in Pic ture and Story." It is published by the N. D. Thompson Publishing Co., ot St. Louis, Mo., and is an exhaustive discus sion of the causes of the war, and equally exhaustive history of its Incidents, and a brilliant analysis of tho famous characters conducting it. It promises to be the one great and popular work called forth by this wonderfully interesting national epi sode. Whatever Sonator Ingalls touches hea Jorns; and this book shines and spark les in the light of his genius. The present work is worthy of his genius, and will be a monument to his fame. The subject now so engrosses tho popular mind as to forecast for this book a sale that will be universal. It will bo sold by subscrip tion only, and tiie canvassing samples arc now ready for agents.
