COAL FAMINE
AT HAVANA
Government Seized All
Coal in the City.
the
Havana, June 18. There is not a
partiule of coal to be had by citizens
in Havana. The government has
seized all there was in the bunkers,
leaving citizens and railroads without
fuel.
The food supply is also very scarce,
and even well-to-do people cannot get
enousrh to eat, while the poor are
starving. The situation is most
critical, and unless relief comes soon
from some source the suffering will be
intense. '

Spanish Papers Assert Camara Will
Attack New England.
Madrid, June 18. This morning's
papers puulisn an account tnat tne
Cadiz fleet; under command of Admiral
Camara, has put to sea, and will cross
the Atlantic, where tbey will bom
bard the seacoast cities of the New
England states.
The papers are confident that
Camara will reach the United states
without interruption, and will be able
to reduce a number of cities before he
can be intercepted by any oi the
American fleet.
QUEEN REGENT
MAY RESIGN.
A Crisis in Spain is Almost Certain to
Follow.
Paris, June IS. It is generally re
ported here that the queen regent of
Spain has determined to abdicate in
favor of Infanta Isabella. The report
seems to be well founded.
A crisis in Spain is iminent, and
what the outcome will be cannot be
foretold. Dissatisfaction with the gov
ernment at Madrid is general, and a
nrbulent elemecit exists that will not
uiuc: ;ju?er be quolled.
FR03I A

Sombardment of Santiago Claimed to
Be Ineffectual.
Madrid, June J8. Th.i governor
geuerai of Santiago do Cuba reports
that the bombardment of Santiago
T- u y did but little damage to the '
fortifications, and that only three
Spaniards were killed.
He says the Americans fired 1000
shots, but the shots were wild, and
the land batteries escaped with slight
damage. No Spanish vessels were in
jured by shot from the American
guns.

Kingston, June 18. The Spanish
ship, Concepceon, outwitted the
Americans at Manzanillo last night
and made its way through the block
ade Une, successfully landing supplies
for the Spaniards. The ship carried a
large amount of supplies of ammunit
ion and provisions for the army.
HAVE REACHED MANILA
First American Expedition Arrived
There Safely.
London, June 18. Newspapers here
this morning published an account of
the arrival at Manila yesterday of the
first American expedition.
The three transports arrived outside
Manila bay yesterday afternoon and
were convoyed inside under escort of
vessels from Admiral Dewey's fleet.
PROMPT
AC
TION ASSURED.
Hawaii Will Probably be Under the
American Flag Within Two Weeks.
New York, June 17. A special to
the Herald from Washington says:
Vigorous efforts are to be made to
get the Hawaiian annexation resolu
tion through the senate by the first of
next week. Annexation within the
next two weeks is now considered so
certain that the administration is con
sidering plans for formally taking pos
session of the islands and raising the
American flag over them. This duty
is to' be intrusted to Rear Admiral Mil
ler, commanding the Pacific station,
and extraordinary haste is being made
to prepare the cruiser Philadelphia for
sea so that he will have a creditable
flagship when he goes to Honolulu.
If the senate acts by Saturday of
next week, it is urobable that Rear
Admiral Miller, will arrive at Honolulu
while the third Philippine expedition
is still in the harbor, and if so, the
troops will be landed and there will be
quite an imposing parade of the land
and naval forces of the United States.
Pending legislation bv congress,
the government of the islands is to be
vested in such persons as the president
may direct. It is understood that the
president will appoint President Dole
first governor of the islands under the
United States, and that Rear Admiral
Miller will carry his commission to
him when he goes out to raise the flag.
Five Negroes Lynched.
Momtgomery, Ala., June 17. A
telephone message from Wetumpka
this morning states that five of the
negro prisoners charged . with triple
murder who were taken from jail by a
mob laot night were banged today, 32
miles from the scene of their crime.
The mob spent most ot the night in a
sort of investigation of the crime and
getting at the guilty ones. Troops
arrived too late to prevent the lynch
ing'. Four of the negroes confessed to
having participated in the crime.
DEWEY REPORTS TO
THE DEPARTMENT,
Says the Insurgents Will Not
Take Manila Now.
Try to
Washington, June 17. The navy
department lias received the following
from Admiral Dewey:
"Cavite. June 12, via. Hong Kong.
There is little chanee in the situation
since my telegram on June 3. The in
sursent continue hostilities and have
practically surrounded Manila. They
have taken 2,500 Spanish prisoners
whom they treat most humanely. They
do not intend to take the city at the
Dresent time. Twelve merchant ves
sels are anchored in the bay, with
refugees, under guard of neutral men
of-war: this with my permission. The
health of the squadron cantioues ex'
cellent. The German commander-in
chief arrived today. Three German,
two British, one French and one Jap
anese man-oi-war are now in port.
Another German man-of-war is ex
pected.
''The following is a correct list of the
Spanish vessels cantured and de
stroyed: Destroyed Two protected
cruisers, five unprotected cruisers, one
transport and one serving vessel, both
armed. The following were captured
Transport Mani'a and gunboatCallao."
WARMLY GREET
ED AT HONOLULU
Our Soldiers Were Given the Free
dom of the City.
Victoria, B. C, June 19 The
steamer Miowera that arrived yester
day from Honolulu, from which place
she sailed June 10th, brings the follow
ing advices:
The United States transports City
of Peking, Australia and City of Syd
ney arrived at Honolulu together June
1st. As soon as the three vessels were
sighted, all Honolulu turned out to
welcome the soldiers.
At noon President Dole and his cab
inet received the officers of the expe
dition. Dnring the reception, the
steamers and the grounds of the ex
ecutive building were thronged with
people.
June 3d, the soldiers were enter
tained on the grounds f the execu
tive building. President Dole was
on band to welcome tnem. ine ut
most frei-.lom prevailed, the affair be
ing vt-rv informal. To each man the
chief executive gave a word of wel
come to Honolulu. An outdoor luach
eua was served by the ladies of the
city.
The transports left for Manila June
4th. The Charleston steamed outside
and waited for the fleet, which got
j away about 10 o'clock, with the Charles
ton in the rear. While the vessels
were in port they took in the neigh
borhood of 1600 tons of coal.
AN ASSASSIN ON BOARD.
A Half Breed Spaniard Attempted to
Blow Up the Peking.
Victoria, B. C, June 19. The
Miowera brings the following account
of- an attempt to destroy the transport
City of Peking, that was published in
the Hawaiian Star of June 3d:
"If the report which is in circula
tion is true, Honolulu came near being
the scene of as frightful a disaster as
that of the Maine, and in much the
same way. The story ij nothing more
or less than that an attempt to blow
up the Peking was frustrated just in
time, n enlisted man, it is said, was
caught in the act of arranging a fuse
connecting with the magazine. The
magazine contains 400 tons of powder,
and had been guarded closely. The
man, It is said, is now under the closest
guard, and when the Peking gets out
on the high seas, be will be hanged at
the yard arm. The greatest secrecy
concerning the matter is being main
tained for fear it would mar the spirit
of the present occasion. The alleged
culprit is said to be half Spaniard."
A Peace Measure.
London, June 18. An apparently
reliable report comes from Madrid
that a conference of the cabinet has
been held looking toward peace with
America, and it will be no surprise if
Spain should ask the governments of
Europe to intervene and arrange for
peace en some honorable grounds that
may be determined upon by the powers.
Tnree Alaska Murderer.
Tacoma, Juno 17. The steamer
Queen, loading wheat for San Fran
cisco, brought down from Alaska mur
derers Fitzpatrick, Corbett and
Brooks, sentenced to San Quentin pen
itentiary for life, for killing Sam
Roberts at Dyea.
No One Injured by the Stampede.
Washington, June 17. A special
to the Star from its correspondent
with the District of Columbia volun
teers at Tampa says: "No one was
hurt by toe stampede of horses in the
district camp last night."
Tellowjack at Mobile.
Mobile, June 18. A number of
cases of yellow fever have developed
hero and an epidemic is feared. Every
possib'e precaution is taken to prevent
the spread of the disease.
Prices Advancing.
San Juan, June 20. The food sup
ply is running very short and prices
of all classes of provisions have ad
vanced 75 per cent within the past
week.
Will Barn the City.
Kingston, June 20. Rather than
let the Americans occupy Caimanera
the Spanish will burn the city. A gun
boat loaded with oil is ready to under
take the task of burning Caimanera,
and may sail for there tonight.
Smuggled in Supplies.
Kingston, June 20. The Span
iards succeeded yesterday in smug
gling three cargoes of supplies for the
Spanish army into Cuban porta.
SPANIARDS ARE
HOLDING OUT
The Insurgents Are Unable to
Take Manila Unaided.
Hong Kong, June 20. Late advices
from Manila are that the insurgents
have made a number of savage attacks
upon the city, but were repulsed by
the Spaniards. The insurgents have
little or no artillery, being armed
principally with light rifles, hence are
unable to dislodge the Spaniards ex
cept in hand-to-haad encounters.
If the insurgeats were supplied with
canon they would probably capture
the city, but without it they are power
less except in maintaining a siege and
preventing supplies reaching the city,
In time they would be able to starve
the Sganish soldiers out, but they will
not be able tp capture the Spanish
army unaided by the Americans.
Hundreds of foreign residents are
going on board neuiral vessels in or
der to gf t out of danar. It is hour!)
expected the American navy will be
gin bombarding the city, and that the
troops just arrived from Manila will
be landed and join the insurgents who
are attacking the city by land.
THE STARVING PRO
CESS IS CONTINUED
Insurgents Prevent Supplies From
Reaching Havana from the Interior.
New York, June 20. A disprtch
from Havana says: the situation
here steadily grows more critical.
The American vessels maintain a
strict blockage from the water side,
and the insurgent army has been able
to prevent any supplies from reaching
here from the interior for several
days.
The foad supply getting danger
ously short, and it is only a question
of a few days when General Blanco
will be forced to take some desperate
steps to supply Havana with food.
Either the blockade must be run by
supply ships, or Blanco will be forced
to overcome the insurgents so that
upplies can be had from the interior.
THE REPORT
IS CONFIRMED
First Expedition of American Troops
Reach Manila.
London. June 20. This morning the
Times publishes an account of the ar
rival of the first American expedition
at Manila last Saturday. Tho troop
ships City of Peking, Australia and
City of Sydney and the cruiser Charles
tun arrived there safely, and the sol
diers will be landed at Covite, where
they will oe quartered in the batteries
wrested from the Spaniards.
A BATCH OF SEC
OND LIEUTENANTS
One Hundred and Ninety-five Have
Been Selected.
Washington, June 20. It was an
nounced from the' war department this
morning that commissions had been
issued to 195 second lieutenants in the
regular army from the commissioned
officers In the volunteers that have
been enlisted. Among those commis
sioned are William H. Jordan and
Ralph Terrill, of Oregon.
INDIGNANT AT SPAIN.
Its
Refusal to Exchange Hobson
Causes III Feeling.
Washington, June 20. The re
fusal of the Spanish officers to ex
change Hobson causes a disagreeable
feeling here. While there is.no posi
tive obligation upon a belligerent to
exchange prisoners, yet it is the uni
versal practice in civilized warfare. In
the case of Hobson, his rank as assis
tant constructor, which is equivalent
to lieutenant of the junior grade, shall
be the sole basis for his exchange, yet
it is obvious to the authorities here
that the Spaniards bold him, not as a
lieutenant, but as a popular idol of the
United States. In this respect bis de
tention ceases to be that of prisoner of
war and becomes one of hostage.
GENERAL
SHAFTER
AT SANTIAGO.
His Troops Reached There in Good
Condition.
Washington, June 21. Advices
have just been received announcing
the safe arrival of the troop ships with
General Shafter's command at San
tiago yesterday. Arrangements have
not yet been perfected for the landing
of the troops, but they will probably
be put ashore at Guantanamo.
It will take several, days to land the
entire army, and the landing will take
place under the protection of Admiral
Sampson's fleet. When the army is
safely on shore it is expected that
Santiago will be attacked both from
the land and sea.
WORSE
THAN A
SAVAGE
NATION.
Spain Refuses to Exchange Prisoners
or Recognize a Flag of Truce.
Washington, June 20. The depart
ment has been informed that General
Blanco states (hat the Spanish gov
ernment has refused to exchange Hob
son and his men. It is also stated that
hereafter Blanco will refuse to recog
nize a flag of truce, and will hold no
communication with the American
commanders.
SAFE IN MORRO CASTLE.
Lieutenant Hobson and His Comrades
Are Well.
Washington, June 21, Dispatches
from Admiral Sampson state that a
representative of Captain General
Blanco called on him yesterday under
the protection of flag of truce, and
brought word from Lieutenaut Hob
son that he and his comrades are safe
ly housed in Morro Castle, Santiago,
and are accorded eyery care possible to
be shown prisoners of war. They are
well and are enduring their conSn
ment with trua patriotic fortitude.
HAVE DECLARED
THEIR INDEPENDENCE
Philippine Insurgents Have Renounced
Spanish Authority.
Hong Ko.ng, June 20. On the 12th
General Filippino at Cavite proclaimed
a provisional government, amid im
posing ceremonies, and a declaration
of independence was read, renouncing
Spanish authority. General Agui
naldo was proclaimed president and
Don Pirondo vice-president.
The insurgents favor an American
propectorate or occupation of the
islands. The declaration of the inde
pendence of the Philippine islands was
received with much enthusiasm by the

Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Meins and is well
known by all, having lived here since
early childhood.
The happy couple left on the early
morning train for Seattle where they

Telegram: Rev. J. R. Bell, well
known in Oregon as a preacher, politi
cal orator and editor, is in Portland,
from his present residence at Hollister,
Cal., where he has charge of the Pres
byterian church. He says there is
not a sprig of anything green in San
Benito eounty, on account of the past
dry season, and there are even dryer
places in California than where be
lives. He lost his 14-year-old daugh
ter, Esther Hattie, last week, through
heart trouble, just before his leaving
to come to Portland, where he is act
ing as grand chaplain of the grand
lodge of Masons. He will return to
Oregon with his family shortly, and be
content to luxuriate amid its fresh
green valleys and plenty blessed hills
the balance of his davs.

Headquarters for the Fourth.
In addition to our other business
we are manufacturing light carbonated
beverages, and we apply the very best
systems and machinery in our bottling
shop. We guarantee our goods to be
the cleanest because we use no wire or
metalic stoppers, but a new crown for
every bottle (the only crown stopper
used in The Dalles.) We guarantee
our goods to be the best because we
make our soda or carbonated water
with natural gas and use no sulphuric
acid (the only soda made by this system
in the Dalles.) All we ask of custom
ers is to make an investigation and
campare our gooas with other brands.
