THE TAMPA EXPEDITION
Terrible Suffering of Troops While
Cooped Up in 'l ranspmts.
Tampa, Fla., June 16.——After much
suffering caused by the inexplicable
delay in getting the first military ex-
pedition under way, the last soldiers
sailed for Cuba Tuesday. The men had
been cooped up on vessels since last
Week and the suffering endured since
then was something terrible. Not only
were the decks and rigging filled with
swarming crowds, but from glimpses
you could gain through open ports,
showed hundreds of men lying below
in their little trough like bunks, built
side by side across the hold in layers
of three and four dcep. It seems al-
moSt a criminal ignorance which made
this delay necessary. There is no ques-
tion that 'the men had much of the
spirit taken out of them. Thev cried
out to know the cause of their deten—
tion. They begged either to be sent
on or put ashore. When told that fear
of unexpected Spanish ships kept them
here they declared themselves afraid
of no Spanish ships afloat. One man
said: “We have two cannon aboard.
Why don’t they let us go in front if
the navy is afraid!”
Ships which under regulations are
permitted 'to have 500 passengers, all
classes included, had 900 and 1,000 sol-
diers aboard. These men all lived be-
low while the vessels were detained
here. Ofl‘icers took the upper state
rooms. They were served by the ship‘s
regular cooks and fared very well. But
the men received no warm food of any
kind excepting coffee. They ate cold
bread, corned beef and bacon.
But all of this suffering was forgot-
ten when it became known that the
hour of departure was near. The spir-
its of the men, which had sunk down
almost to its last peg, revived to a
great extent. They seemed to smell
the blood of battle from afar; at any
rate, anything, no matter how danger-
ous to life, was preferable to the terri-
ble experience they had undergone for
almost a week. '
GERMANY AND MANILA.
The Possibility of Repeating There the
Kine-Chou. Experiment.
London, June 16.—Tuhe Star yesterday
reiterated the story that Emperor VVil-
liam of Germany has ordered the Ger-
man consul at Manila to oppose ‘the de-
barkation of Americans unless in suffi-
cient force to maintain order and pro-
tect the Germans.
The Star adds that a notification to
this effect has been officially given to
the United States embassy at Berlin
and to Secretary Day at Washington.
Admiral Dietrichs, according to the
Star, has 2,400 troops, and he could dis-
embark 1,500, with two batteries of ar-
tillery, for the partial occupation of
Manila.
The Berlin correspondent of the Daily
News says:
“It seems almost impossible that
Germany can have the idea of risking
a war with the United Stat-es by inter-
ference at Manila. Nevertheless, it is
equally impossible to ignore the signifi-
cance of the fact that ideas of repeat-
~ing the successful Ki-ao—Chou experi-
ment are evidently floating in the
brains of naval personages whose in-
fluence is so great that the matter de-
serves attention.”
A Special dlspatoh from Madrid, pub-
lished yesterday afternoon, purports to
give the substance of an interview
with Senor Sagasta, the Spanish pre-
mier, who is quoted as saying that
Tuesday’s rise on the Bourse was due
to telegrams advising leading finan—
ciers that Russia “has taken steps to
.intervene shortly in the settlement of
the Philippine question.

7" THE FRENCH MINISTRY our.
Resignation of Premier Melina and His
Associates Accepted.
Paris, June 16.——-M. Meline, the pre-
mier, has ‘handed to President Faure
the resignations of the whole cabinet,
which the president has accepted, while
requesting the ministers to continue
the direction of affairs until their suc-
cessors are named.
The cabinet met yesterday and re-
viewed the situation caused by the ad-
verse action of the Chamber of Depu-
ties in compelling the government to
adopt a distasteful amendment to the
order of the day. The ministers reas—
sembled at 2.30 p. m., under the presi-
dency of President Faure, when the
resignations were presented.
It is expected that M.’ Ribot, ex-pre-
mier and minister of finance, will be
invited to form a new ministry, and it
is probable that M. Dupuy, who was
the premier of the cabinet which pre-
ceded that of M. Ribot, will join the
new ministry.
ANNEXATION BlLL PASSES.
By a. Vote of 209 to 9i Lower Branch of
Congress Decide-s to Annex the Island.
Washington, June Ids—The House of
Representatives passed the Hawaiian
annexation resolution yesterday after-
noon by a vote of 209 to 91. The an-
nouncement of the result of the vote
was received with cheers on the Repub-
lican side of the House.
All the Republicans except t‘hree vot-
ed for annexation, and they were join-
ed by thirty-two Democrats and Popu-
lists. '
The resolution will be laid before the
Senate to—day, and it is intended to
have it at once referred to the commit-
tee on foreign relations, which will re-
port it back before the expiration of the
day’s session, so that the debate in the
Senate can begin the day following.
If is expected that the large majority
by which the resolution passed the
House will affect the Senate in its fa.-
vor.
Senator Lodge spoke most positively
about the necessity of immediate ac-
tion in the matter of annexing Hawaii.
Sampson to lie Ready.
It is said that the president has urged
Secretary Long to direct Admiral
Sampson to be prepared as speedily as
possible to send a fleet of first class
vessels to Porto Rico, and the ofl‘icers
of the-navy department are of the
opinion that there will be no delay in
the Porto Rican expedition on account
of the navy. Admiral Sampson has
progressed so far with his operations
at Santiago that he will be ready for
the other eitpedition very soon after
the‘corps are landed at Santiago.
Prize Taken to Key West.
Key West, June '1 Iii—The British
steamship Twiokenhuam, which was
captured by the St. Louis, has arrived
in charge of a priZe crew. She has a
cargo of 3,000 tons of Cardiff cw.

LATEST FROM G'JANTSNA‘d-D. i
Why the Marines \Vere Landed so
Soon.
Washington, June 16.——-A telegram
from Admiral Sampson says that he
has been refnforced by several hundred
Cubans and that affairs at Guantana-
mo are in a satisfactory condition. The
town of Acerrederos has been occupied
by troops under Rabi. The men under
Garcia are co-operati-ng with the Amer-
ican forces.
The naval authorities were relieved
when they heard from Sampson. They
had been worried over the position of
Lieutenant Colonel Huntington‘s gal-
lant band‘of marines, who are hold-
ing their own at Camp McCalla, on
Guantanamo bay, against overwhelm-
ing odds. '
Thus far the marines have had the
best of the fighting, bLt the situation
is grave, and they are exhausted \Vith
repelling almost incessant attacks.
After the first attack on Saturday
night Lieutenant Colonel Huntington
decided that another attempt would be
made on Sunday night, and he caus- .
ed entrenchments to be thrown up on
all sides of the camp, and in the tren-
ches the main part of the battalion
waited for the attack that the colonel
was certain would come. It began a
short time after dail;, and from that
time until daybreak the firing was in-
cessant and at times heavy. On the
American side two men were killed and
four injured. The dead are:
Sergeant Major Henry Goode,
through the right breast. .
Private Tauman, wounded and fell
off the cliff and was killed.
The injured are:
Private Wallace, fell off the cliff and
sustained a fracture of the leg.
Private Martin, shot through the left
leg.
'Private Roxbury, shot through the
arm. -
Private Burke, shot through the arm.
There has been some criticism of the
action of the government in sending
the marines ashore, and out of this
has 'come an explanation of the reason
for it. It appears that Admiral Samp-
son and his officers believed that the
troopships from Tampa would arrive
off Santiago last Friday or Saturday.
With this understanding the marines
were landed to establish a base of
supplies and operations for General
Sh'af'ter's army. Everybody confidently
believed that the troops would arrive
on the day after'the landing of the
marines was made, it having been tak-
en for granted at Santiago that the
transports left Tampa on the original
date set, ‘Wednesday last. ,
The marines are ashore without pros-
pect of relief by our troops until next
Sunday at the earliest. They cannot be
removed in safety and are not strong
enough to advance. In consequence of
these facts officers here think it Would
be bad policy to withdraw from the po-
sition secured and they predict that a
strong force of marines and bluejack-
ets from Sampson’s fleet will be sent
to support Colonel Huntington's bat-
talion.

THE NICARAUGUA CANAL.
Rear-Asmiral “’alkcr, Head of lhe Com
mission, Gives Testimony. .
Washington, June 16.——Rear Admiral
Walker was before the senate commit-
tee on the Nicaraguan canal yesterday.
He said that the commission of which
he is president has not yet completed
its labors, but from examinations al-
ready m-ade, The thought the plan for
a canal along the proposed route was
entirely feasible.
He suggested some changes by which
several dams could be avoided, and
said that he thought the canal could
be constructed at a. cost of about
$125,000,000.
Senator Morgan, chairman of the
committee, said after the meeting that
he hoped to get action on the bill dur—
ing the present session of Congress if
possible.
Cam n Black Deserted.
Hempstead Plains, L. 1., June 16.——
The Twentieth Separate company from
Binghamton, which has been in quar—
antine for two weeks on account of the
measles, left here yesterday. Not a
soldier of the VOlLil‘lZf‘JCI' troops now re-
mains at Camp Black. Only General
Pennington and his embryonic hospital
corps are left.
The Binghamt-on company was tak-
en to Long Island City and transferred
to Governor‘s island, where it will be
stationed ‘with Colonel Barber, who has
headquarters there. All the men were
in good health and the Contagion had
totally disappeared.
Shot at Count Arcon.
London, June 16.—Count Arccn, sec-
retary of the German embassy, was
shot while standing in front of the
embassy yesterday. The would—be
murderer just missed Count Arcon's
head, inflicting no injury. Vlien the
police attempted to arrest him the man
fired twice at the policemen but missed
both shots.
The police have another version of
the shooting. They say that a police-
man‘ who was patrolling in front of
the German embassy was shot in the.
breast, but was saved from injury by
a pocketbook r. hich he carried in his
inside pocket.
Strike on Yale and Harvard.
Newport News, June 16.——The engin—
eers. stoke-rs and ordinary seamen who
hax'a- boom in service on the scout ships
Yale and Harvard will refuse to go to
port as auxiliary cruisers. These men
were in the employ of the American -
line when the steamers were leased by i
the government and they signed arti- '
cles of agreement for one year, but
claim that they not enlist in the
merry, and, therefore. cannot be com—
pelled to go into service on a warship.
especially as most of them are subjects
of foreign powers.
