An Evening Journal ' special from Cape Haytien says: The torpedo-boat Porter arrived at Mole Bt. Nickolas, at 1 o'clock this morning with dispatches for Washing ton. She left immediately. Before going to sea, the following story of the bombardment of Santiago was obtained: . The American squadron, augmented . by the torpedo-boat Porter and an aux iliary cruiser and the protected cruiser New Orleans, approached the entrance to the harbor of Santiago at about 12:30 p.m., the Iowa leading. Inside the entrance to the harbor was seen one warship of Cervera's fleet, stripped for action. As the American fleet drew near, the New Orleans was detached and steamed ahead of the Iowa, Texas and Massachusetts. One of the forts opened fire on her, and she replied, the other ships directing their fire at the battery on Punta Gorda within the harbor and to the' westward of the po sition occupied by the Spanish ship. The latter replied' to the lire and im mediately became a target for all the American ships engaged in the battle. She retired behind the protecting bead lands and whs not seen again during the engagement. The Iowa, - directed by Captain "Fighting Bob" Evans; the Massachu setts, Texas and New Orleans, kept up a terrific fire against the forts for two hours, their projectiles, of enormous size, doing tremendous damage to the ' defenses of the harbor. The masonry of Socapa and Morro was battered almost into dust and the forms of Spanish artillery and infantry men could plainly be seen flying to safety behind neighboring bills. The auxiliary cruiser which joined Schley's fleet Just before the battle took place, was hit by shells from the forts and it is thought was seriously dam aged. After seeking the protection of the jutting headland, the Spanish war ships continued to fire projectiles over the hills towards the fleet, but they had no range, and the shells fell harm lessly Into the sea. That the number of killed and wounded on the Spanish Bide is enormous, no one doubts, for time and again the American shells hit the batteries squarely, and amid the flying masonry and dismantled guns, the forms of men were seen. The dam age done to the American fleet cannot be learned, but It Is not thought that any person' was killed, if indeed, any one was wounded. The Situation in Montana. Dillon, Montana, May 31, 1898. Editor Glacier: Thinking perhaps a line from me at this 'time would prove of some advantage to berry shippers and be received in the spirit intended, well knowing my motive is disinter ested as far as office or personal emol ument is concerned, and my only de sire being the advancement of intelli gent methods in marketing, I will en deavor to place the situation in Mon tana before you in the light I view it, and possibly offer some suggestions that will enable the grower to avoid mistakes and unbusinesslike methods how prevailing, which must of neces sity invaaiably place the grower iu the dilemma iu which he again finds him self. Now, concerted action by all the growers, one union and the eliminat ing of that unknown quantity, the in dependent shipper, which munt be ac complished before even a start can be made iu Intelligent shipping, by which the prices realized will be commensu rate with quality and value of the product. ' I have had an extended talk with Gessling and Morse and they both agree that present methods of doing business could not be worse. "Desper ate diseases require desperate reuie . dies," and trust anything I may say will be received in the spirit intended. Friends Gessling and Morse might as well be bottled up in Santiago with the Spanish fleet for all the use they are to the berry growers. Try they ever so much to better the situation, tied hand and foot by a system which admits of no alternative except disas ter, imagine the situation as I outline it and then sympathize with them. Mr. Gessling comes into Montana with out the fruit even being consigned to him, without power to quote prices or assist in any manner in its disposal, with the firm to whom the fruit is con signed only interested in competing with lowest prices being quoted each day, using our product as an induce ment to place other fruits with the merchant which is not consigned, and they are compelled to buy outright, their salesmen instructed to push the goods they own, leaving consignments like ours to shift largely for themselves, and Mr. Gessling powerless to avert the disaster.. I understood a car of berries was shipped to reach Butte Dec oration day, to be thrown on a market forced dow i to 10c a box at retail. J A. Stroml e g & Co., with a sp r t ' born of intenee rivalry, wishing to wire Walla Walla for 200 crates to break the market still lower, and only by Morse's efforts restrained from doing so, actu ated by a desire to uphold prices. Now Mr. Gessling has been thrown bodily out of Strotiiberg's office and Morse ordered away from Openheim er's, and how, in heaven's name, when that amount of rivalry exists, can we expect our consigned fruit to stand any show? The consumer all the time standing ready to pay a fair price, us evidenced by prices varying 10c a box in different stores, and all selling well. Get together. Ship as one union. Get the independent shippers in line. One would think the object lesson he has received would make that easy. Consign the fruit to Gessling. Have Morse look up outside markets, and then sell outright to commission houses with a guarantee that prices made to each one is identical. Give bad fruit to peddlers, and if too bad send to the dump, and the Hood River fruit grower will realize fair prices. The commission houses say they would rather buy outright if prices were equal, and it stands to reason. Another year the business would be systemized and present loss and uncertainty averted. 1 F. (-HANDLER. Mr. M. J. Anderson, candidate for county clerk on the union ticket, was in town Wednesday morning renewing old acquaintances and making new ones. Mr. Anderson was here ten years ago and gave Hood River a write up for the Mountaineer. He found many changes and expressed himself as satisfied with the prophecies he made then that Hood River would prove to be the best part of Oregon for fruit. Mr. Anderson is a very cour teous gentleman and will make an effi cient public servant if elected to the office of county clerk. The management of the Willamette Valley Chautauqua association, located at Oregon City, have this year been very successful in securing for the com ing assembly, to be held at the park of the association, on the north bank of the Clackamas river, talent of the firec class for all the departments. Among the lecturers is John Temple Graves of Atlanta, whom Prtsidmt McKinley says is one of the m st brilliant and beautiful speakers he ever listened to. Other noted lecturers are on the pro gramme. The meetings will be held this year from June 13th to 24th. Mr. I. D. Driver, candidate for sher iff on the union ticket, is a hard working farmer of Wamic, where be has resided for more than twenty years. By good citizenship and honorable dealings with his neighbors he has won their respect and confidence so gen erally that he will find no opposition at the polls iu his own precinct. A man who can get the support of bis neighbors without regard to party for an important office like that of sheriff is a good man to vote for, and you can make no mistake if you put an X be fore the name of I. D. Driver when you prepare your ballot. Hood River is always ready . to vote for a change in the office of county as sessor. Mr. J. H. Aldrich, a worthy veteran of the civil war and a man in every way oompeteut to make an hon est assessment of the property of Was co county, Is a candidate and we hope to see him elected. . The people of , Hood River know Judge Bradshaw to be a man eminent ly fitted for the office of circuit judge and will give him their votes without asking his politics. The circuit judge ship is not a political office, and Judge Bradshaw is not a partizan. He is never heard discussing politics. Hood River always takes pride In giving Hood River candidates a good vote. We may differ in politics and In some other thiugs, but we are all for Hood River. We like to vote for men we know. We can all vote for J. W. Morton and O. L. Morse. C. L. Gil bert is the right man for county school superintendent and will get a bigger vote than he received two years ago, which was something to be proud of. J. H. Ackerman is well known here, and no one acquainted with him be lieves he is influenced by the American Book Co. H. L. Howe is a candidate for surveyor, and we will not forget that he is a worthy citizen that de serves our votes. Educate Your Mowela With Cascarets.
