From Its Inception to Its close the Cuban reljelllon was kopt alive by t American contributions of cash, arms j and volunteers. . Uncle Sam knew all about it, but he rolled but tongue fn his cheek. During the last two years of the rebellion his vessels were almost openly fitted out to carry arms and J other supplies, bat If the United States cutters chased them off the coast tbey ' did not overhaul them at sea. The government inspectors at ftie New England arsenals knew where the arms went to, no matter what the marks on tbe boxes, but tbey winked at eacb other and saw nothing. According to Lopez, 2.it00 patriots were ready to rally as noon as sup plhvVlth arms. A largo sum of mon ey was collected and spent for mus kets, revolvers, cartridges and machine funs. Then there were blankets, ra tions tod other things needed by the soldiers. A steamer was chartered and thirty Americans enlisted. Spanish pies in New York reported the pur chases to Uncle Sam. He replied that he would attend to the matter and did nothing. The same spies reported tbe steamer. She was not even . looked over by the revenue officers. To be anre she was chased down the coast by a revenue cutter that belched bar rels and barrels of black smoke, but when the filibuster was at last over hauled It was to atk tf tbe captain hadn't forgotten bis nightshirt on leav ing New York. , Lopes was aboard. He bad been In defatigable, lie bud been at Washing ton. He bad directed all while sleep ing in a garret and living on one meal a day. A patriot on a pedestal! An object lesson to tbe world 1 Tbe steamer was to touch at a cer tain point on the coast. Word had (one on ahead and a thousand Cubans would be at band to swiftly unload her. False alarms wouM be given and the Spanish gunltoats called away from the spot No precaution bad been neglected. Nothing bad been left to chance. When once tbe steamer got headed for tbe spot she slowed down t half speed. She was to reach the landing under cover of darkness. At 4 o'clock In the afternoon nothing waa In sight from ber bridge. At 5 o'clock a heavy fog settled down. This was all the better for the success of the expe dition. Five hours' slow run would take them to the bay selected, and bon fires and torches would illuminate the discharge of the cargo. The fog "hail hoi lifted at 6 o'clock nor at 7. At 8 one could Just make out fro f orrn of a man seveu or eight feet sway. The captain was a prudent man. All lights were extinguished and all nobies busbM. With the screw soft ly turning, the filibuster bored her way Into the fog like some blacker shadow. The cap tutu. Lopes and half a dozen . others formed a group by themselves and spoke Jn whispers.

In the captflln'j jar, 'Spanish guuboatsl" was the reply. By the speaking tube and not by the bell tbe way of the steamer was check ed, and she floated idly on the sea.
