Major General Merrltt wants more
troops for Manila. lie bus been com.
muntcatlng with the authorities at
Washington and hopes to secure 4000
additional men. lie has 16,000 at
San Francisco and between the army
should consist of 20,000. Tho expedi
tion will sail early next week but the
exact date has been kept a secret,
Gee. Fred Grant's battle problem
was executed at Chlckamauga Satur
day. The problem, a number Jof new
and difficult maneuvers. It was
watched with great Interest by oCQ
cers and men. The maneuvers were
well carrlen out, according to Gen
eral Grant's excellently concleyed
plan, and It is alledged that many
of them would bo very useful in ac
tual conflict.
There were columns In the forma
tion. The first, consisting of the
First Vermont, Third Tennessee and
Eithth New York regiments, was
commanded by Colonel Clark, of Ver
mont, and was formed along tho vine
yard road. The second column col
umn, consisting of the Fourteenth
New York,Second Nebraska and First
Missouri, under command of Colonel
Charles Bill, of Nebraska, formed on
theTedford road. On the first hill
the two columns met, when tho strug
gle was bzgun in earnest. When this
was finished General Grant throw the
two columns together to ward off a
supposeed attack from some direction
of which he was supposed to have
knowledge in advance:
All is ready at Guatcmalo for the
landing of the United States regular
troops as soon as they arrive there,
the marines holding the ground they
won, and being protected by tho guns
of the Marblehcad, under Captain
McCalla, who has already during the
present war, so distinguished himself
by energetic and valuable serviccs.as
to encourage the belief that he will
regain the numbers he lost some time
ago through an unfortunate incident.
According to information from
Spanish sources "eleven American
merchantmen have arrived before
Santiago de Cuba. It Is belley.etl.they
are the ships conveying the troops
which It Is intended to disembark.
Precautions are being taken to pre
vent them, from effecting a landing."
"Tho Spanish- warships Venadlto,
Nueva .Espana and LJgera have made
a sortie from Havana for the purpose
of attacking the blockading squadron

The Spanish governor-general has

this price being placed on his head,
three attempts hare been made to

Private advices received at Vienna
show that tho situation in Spain Is
such that peace is speedily and earn
estly desired, Tho finances of the
country aro threatened and famine
and intrigues of the Carllsts and Re
publicans render peace Imperative
Tho Spanish government is drawing
up a memorandum to tho powers
requesting their friendly Intervene
tlon. I learn from diplomatic
sources that France and Aus
tria are prepared to accede to the
request, while Russia and Germuny
disapprove of Intervention. The
enormous increase In the Russian
grain trade since the war began has
probably influenced Russia's attitude.
On tho wholo, tho probability pf Eu
ropean Intervention Is most remote,
Spain's most steadfast friends at
London aro losing hope. Her candid
friends of the press deplore the obsti
nacy with which she accepted war
when totally uuprcparcd, and declare
that to continue itightlng when the
causo Is hopelessly lost will only alien
ate France, whose good words would
prove serviceable in the day of settle
ment. Lieutenant Ilobson will be amply
rewarded for his bravery being ad
vanced a full grade. This British
consul at Santiago 6ays Hobsun and

Assistant Secretary Vandersllp of
the Treasury says:
'The subscription of $200,000,000 of
the 3 percent bonds Just authorized
by congress will be opened by the
treasurs department as soon as the bill
Is signed by the 'president, and will
close nt 3 p. m. July 14. This gives
ample time even for the most, remote
sections of the country to receive com
plete information regarding to the
details of tho Issue, and to have sub

trersury.
Every channel will be used to dis
seminate In tho widest possible man
ner information regarding this Issue
and to make It In every way a success
ful popular loan. A great number of
subscriptions havo been received in
anticipation of the passage of tho act,
and there Is every reason to believe
that the Issue will be largely over

Good Music and a Large. Crowd at the
.Park,
The first Sunday afternoon open air
concert was given by the H. A. C.
band, yesterday, at Marlon square and
furnished much enjoyment to several
hundred people. The band was at Its
best, and the audience was In a highly
appreciative mood, The Sunday
afternoon crowds will doubtless in
create as the weather becomes
warmer.
The natural beauty of this little
park Is the first thing about Salem to
excite remarks from visitors to the
Capital city. Indeed tnere is no park
in this whole country, of Us size, that
could be made prettier with a very
mall expenditure, Why the powers
that be,haven't long ago made provis
ions to erect a pretty bandstand and
place seats about under the trees, Is
a mystery
A mutual agreement could no doubt
be reached by the band and our music
loving people to have a series of con
certs and. thereby secure the necessary
means to Improve thjs park. Who'll
move In the matter!.

INVADING
c
Army Has Left Key
West.
Gen. Shatter Com'
. mands Expedition
Seventeen Thousand Mon
Will Land at Santiago
Powerful Force of Convoying War-
Ships Providided
V I
Washington, Juno 13. The 11 M
division of the great army of invasion
left' Key West at 5 a. m. under
command of General Shaftcr for San
tiago dc Cuba, to bcslrgo and capture
the town.
The army transportsi30 In number,
left FortJTampa Saturday and came
to Key West. Tho convoying
warships, believed to number 10 to 10,
will be ready for tho voyage by night
fall, and with this powerful force
there Is no lonficr reason for apprehen
sion thut the transports can bo at
tacked successfully by any Spanish
warships, oven If such ships had es
caped the vigilant search of tho nayal
commanders at lley West and off
navana.
It Is believed hero that tho sally
out of Havana of the three Spanish
gitnboa&was intended to create' the
impression that they were "prepared
to attack the transports. It so, the
plan miscarried, for tho craft was de
tected Immediately by Commodore
Watson 's cruisers and driven back
pell mcll into Havana .harbor under
tho protection of the guns of the shore
batteries.
Even If these boats had escaped they
could have done no damage, for the
size of the convoy furnished for tho
troopsshlps Is sufficient to wurrant tho
belief that they would have been
speedily destroyed had tlicv had the
courage to make an attack upon tho
fleet of American ships. The Spanish
ttoats are not of formidable character,
nor oneof them being the equal In
of the smallest American cruiser, or
even of such gunboats as the little
Bancroft, which maybe used as Gen
eral Shafter'H flagship.
Every precaution has been taken by
tho government to Insure the safety of
the troops en route to Cuba. The na
val war board was In session to making
the final preparations for tho dispo
sition of the guarduhlps. The trans
ports will bo kept as closely together
as safe navigation will permit, and the
warships will bo disposed of ahead,
astern and an each flank. The fleet
est scouting vessels will bo thrown
far out In advance of the transports
and to Insure against an attack from
the rear, two vessels, such as the St.
Louis, perhaps, will linger far astern,
ready to signal the hcaylly-armcd
cruisers at the first sign of an ap
proaching foe.
The stately battle-ship Indiana, it
Is expected, will lead tho procession
of ships, which will bo the most
numerous gathored In American
waters since the civil war.
The trcops should arrlyo off San
tiago by Wednesday night, supposing
the fleet proceeds at eight knots speed
and landing operations should begin
by Thursday, for General Shatter will
not keep his men cooped up oc ship
board a moment longer than is nec
essary. The war department has been In
close connection by telegraph with
General Miles, as Tampa and allot
necessary Instructions havo been
given to the commanding general for
the preparation of tho military force
to bo used in the Porto Rice cam
paign. General Miles In turn has
been consulting Generals Copplngc
and Lee at Jacksonville, giving tho
necessary detailed Instructions, and
all Is so near ready that there wera
some essential supplies on hand, tho
expedition could start within 24 hours
Tho navy department has been ad
vised of the purpose of tho army, and
tho war board was making arrange
ments yesterday for the convoying of
the fleet. This Is of u mora formlda
ble character than that which goes
with tho Santiago expedition, for tho
plans contemplate u Joint attack upon
tho San Juan fortifications by the
army and navy, and theso fortifica
tions are bo poworful that hcayy
armored ships only can bo sent against
them at tho beginning. Therefore, It
Isbcllcvcd that Sampson's battlo-shlps
will head this licet.
Now that Sampson has taken up
a position ashore In Guantanamo bay
It Is expected at the navy department
that ha will be In direct cablo com
munication with tho department,
which will greatly faclllltatc the
combined operation of tho navy and
army. The cable which was cut Just
before landing the marines, was
bu iv nl nnd a (.oon as cable operators
and Instruments can be gotten over
from Haytl the cable will bo opened
again.
MARION'S OFFICIAL VOTE,
Canvassing Board Still at Work. Tho
Judgeship Situation.
It was expected tho board canvass
lng tho Marlon election returns,
would bo able to submit an official
report today but owing to some Irreg
ularities, the report will not bo forth
coming before Tuesday.
In recanvassing tho vote of Gorvals
precinct this morning an error of 100
votes was found in favor of Geo. H.
Crolsan, the Union legislature can
didate, but this still leaves him 02
votes behind McCourt who received
tho sniallost number of votes of tho
ffve Republican candidate? whoso
election has been conceded.
The vote In Woodburn precinct
will also bo rccanvasscd, as tho re
turns from that place as It Is thought
to bo Incorrect In Bovcral Instances.
An additional tally sheet from that
precinct has been secured nnd tho
vote'wlll be carefully counted.
Tho question of tho election of a
Judgo to succeed II. II. Hewitt, Is de
cidedly uncertain. Saturday I'. H.
D'Arcy's election by a majority of 41
was practically assured but since then
returns havo been rccolvcd that make
Mr. Holsc's election probable A re
port from Yamhill county gives Mr.
Boise a majority of 82 over Mr,
U'Arcy lnsteud of 45 and as had been
nrovlously reported. This gayo Mr.
Boise a majority over Mr. D'Arcy of
34 In the district. Today it was re
ported In this city that an error of 38
votes had been discovered in Linn
county's vote by which Mr, Bolso's
majority had been reduced from 140
to 102. Tills would give D'Arcy a
majority of 4 votes over Mr. Holso In
the district.
It will require tho ofilclal voto to
determine tho successful candidate,
Both candldatcf have already been
alternately congratulated over their
supposed election.

A special from Washington to The

Salem to succeed Judgo Bonlmm, the
present Incumbent.
Postmaster Bonhaui was appointed
