Teatlac Victories for Their A no.Hataxa. July 7. Keports have Just reached

this city of a battle in the district of OabaSas,Provlnco of Plnar del Rio. on Jnne 22. Gen.Melauiio, with 13.000 men and sixteen fieldpieces, attacked Maceo, who occupied a positionIn the Rubi hills with an estimated force offi.OOOmen. Thee bills are qultehlgh and etesp.wltn numerous Irregular points.

Maceo resisted the first attack of the Spanishforces as they advanced up the hill until theywere within short range. He then took a posi-tion en another bill and watted for the advanceof the Spaniards. As they advanced he followedthe same tactics, until he had occupied six dif-ferent positions.

The Spanish forces by that time bad becomeso cut to pieces that they broke and retreated.Maceo then charged the columns, and It wasonly by his being able to bring his numerousfield pieces Into play that (Jen. Melquizo's forcewere saved from being completely routed.Mareo captured a large quantity of arms andammunition.

The Spanish officials reported this battle as ft8pailsh victory. Gen. Melqulro has been ap-pointed commander In the provlnco of I'lnar delRio. He has Issued a proclamation orderingthe relutlvet of all Insurgents to Join the insur-gents In the field. He strictly forbids themtaxing anything except the clothes they wear.a to-i- n as they gel away from the towns theyare assassinated. Gen. Melqulzo has a recordof murdering more paclllcos than any othergeneral In the Spanish army.

Col. Pagllery recently puDllsbed an accountof a fight with the insurgents near Kincnn.province of Havana. In which lie says he routedthe Insurgents and killed a large number. Thefacts are Col. Pagllery. with 160 guanila civile,met the advance guard ot Insurgent Col. JnanDelgado. A slight skirmish followed: seventeenpf the guard.a clvlles were killed and Col. I'ag-lier- y

retreated. One of his omters, wltn severalof his Iroou. joined C el. Uelgadu's forces.

0 . June 30 urid 21, lu the evening, the Insur-gents attacked the forts of Uuanabacoa. -d

the city, and fought In Cereria street,fnlslsaclty of over20.00U Inhabitants, aboutfour and a half miles from Havana. It Is sur-rounded with forts, and guarded with manyvolunteers and cannons.

The village of Guano. In the province of Plnardel Itlo, has been occupied and governed by theInsurgents for two months. Col. Antonio Va-ro- na

Is in command there. He recently dis-covered four hponlards observing people whowere giving refreshments to the tururgenttroops in order to report them to the Spanish(oiuuius. Ha removed thorn men to Iis Ar-royos. The .Spaniards arc not disturbed If theydo not Interfere with the Insurgents.

On July 2 a reporter of one of the Havanapapers sent adescatch from tho troth a sayingthat 400 men. with officers and two field pieces,had gone over to the Insurgents, that .Maceo haddistributed them among the luri.es of bis Gen-erals, and that the desertion was caused by 111

treatment, poor food, and no pay for nvsmonths. The censor suppressed the despatch.

Three hundred and eighty-seve- n Spanishofficers hate made application for leave to re-turn to baln. home of them ask for leave onrecount of alckness, but most of them have hadenough of fighting.

frem (As itifi Hall aattttt.I.Ike many others of the modern engines of

war. the submarine boot Is a recent elaborationof an older Idea. As far back na the reign ofJames I., one Cornelias Dobrell constructed avessel, rowed by twelve men under ivatcr, forthe purposo of operating against hostile ships.Tho boat Is sail to have actually been triedIn tho Thames. Mr. Debrell owned, accord-ing to himself, the secret of a "subtllo liquor."which when distilled from a bottle correctedtho Impurity ot tho air. and the secret ofwhich died with him. This la a cartons par-allel to tho modern uso of compressed air. Acentury later a man named Day descended Intwentr-tw- o fathoms of water In PlymouthSound, unit never came np again. Ills Insuc-ics- s

put a temporary etoo to Invention, thoughit mar be noted that to this day submarineboats havo an unhappy knack of clinging tothe bottom. In 177 for the first time the sab.marine boat was used In war. The vesselwns built by David I!ushnll of Connecticut,and was called tho American Turtle. It con-tained one man, who propelled it with a sin-gle oar, nml It descended on the admission otwater Into a ballast chamber. It only con-tained air for thirty minutes, but approachedthe enemy on the surface, and sank merelylong enough to affix a charge of 1C0 pounds ofpowder to his hull. The charge was fired byclockwork. This strange vessel descendedunder his Majesty's ship Eagle, the flagship ofAdmiral Itowc, during the "irof independence,and almot succeeded In attaching a formida-ble turned:), when 810 British sailors wouldline been killed or drowned. In 1803,Hubert Fulton, also an American, being thendomliiled In tanco, nnslgatea a boat be-neath the surface in the harbors of Brest andHavre. His vessel must have been one ofconsiderable size, as it contained eight men,rould remain eight hours beneath the sur-face, and actually morud 2,000 yards on oneoccasion. It further succeeded in destroy-ing a largo boat moored In Brest harbor.During the war of 1813 It turned up In theVnlted States, whither tho Inventor badtaken It. and all hut oored throuch the Bot-tom of his Maletr,s ship Rsmlllles, com-manded bv Capt. Hardy of Trafalgar fame,as tho lav off New London. Want of airbrought the boat up before Its work wascompleted, and it does not seem to have re-peated the attempt. There was no want of de-

nunciation of such "dastardly manners ofwarfare" on the part of the British officers,which reads strangely nowdas.

The next submarine boat of Importance wasMr. Scott Russell's Nautlltt", constructed during tne Lnmean war, ana ac-

cented bv the Admiralty. It was In-

tended for u5e against the Russian warships, but w.i rot rompleted In time. Itwas submerged m the admlsion of watertaiUst. and air was obtained through a pipewhich w as connected with a float on the sur- -'

face. It was rowed bv divers sitting outside,the men being supplied with air from the In.

' terior of the vessel. In trials at PortsmuthIt succeeded In placing torpedoes under veveels. A few cars later an American. De-- i

lanev. brought a submarine boat to England.which was torpedo shaped and propelled by

' steam. During the American civil war, .'orthe Crs. time In history, a war shin was sunk

i by a submarine boat. This craft was. torpeao' sharped snd was submerged by war bailout;I she had lateral Una to keep her steady, bhe

was fitted with a spar torpedo. Her recordl was a most unenviahle one. as on trial

she went to the bottom with all hercrew of eight and suffocated them. Shewas recovered, and four times repeatedher performance, nn each occasion drowningthe greater part of her crew. Finally, beingpicked up. she exploded a torpedo against thoS'orthern cruller nnnsatnnlc. and bo;h wentto th bottom. Fhe men. all volunteers,were killed on board tho submarine b. at. andtheir bodies were recovered In her at the cloeof the war. In 18T1 Slgnor Torellt construct-ed his Talpa Marina, which waa rather of thenature of diving bell, but which descendedat Nat .e to a dep-- h of 250 fet.

' Of modern submarine boats, the most Im- -' nortant n- -e those constructed by Tuck. Gou- -

rt. Nordenfelt, and Holland. The Frenchnavy has al three formidable craft, the

i Hymnote. More. and 7.cde. The Tuck bratIs of Iron, c!gar-hped- . and thirty fet lonir: ItIs propelled by electricity and supplied with areerve of compressed air. thouirh It Is alsoctlod with a long Iron pipe, by which. If re-

quired, air can lie drawn down from the sur-face. The Goubet bml. of which Russia hasor had several, and Brazil two. Is almost

and is smaller than the Tuck easel.It carries two men. and can either be workedby hai.dnr by electrt-lt- y uopl!ed frrmaccorau- -

! Tere Is a tank containirg com-pressed a!r. and a heavy weitht, detachablefrom the interior of the vessel, enables it In-

stantly to rise to the surface. If there It nottime to pump out the water bnllai-t- . A tor-pedo Is secured to the boat by a bayonet catch.Of th Nordenfelt boats four have been built,one tor Greece and two for Turkey. They arepropelled by steam, and have two sets ofscrews, one giving horizontal, the other verti-cal, movemeau The speed underwater Is fiveknot', and the distance that can be run istwenty knots. On the snrface th tpeed risesU ei-- ht or ten knots, and the radios of actionto 1,000. There Is a conning tower protectedwith one-Inr- h steel, two Whitehead tube",bothplaced forward, and space for the storage offour torpedoes.

The Gnstave ZedA is the largest submarineboat yet constructed. She Is 131 feet long,and displaces more water than the Hornet.2t)(J tons. She is cylindrical, with a largeconning tower projecting from her uppersurface, sne is ntteo wun curcujcij icr.ful engines for ber type, and has a speed offourteen knots on the surface. The sourceof power Is electricity carried In accumulat-or-, which bave been the caua of great trou-ble. On one occasion while they were beingrnargrd. a series of explosions took place, andthe accumulators were destroyed. Thefumes from them have been the source of muchannoranre to the crew, affecting the mem-branes of the throat: and though the discom-fort has been lessened by Improved arrange-ments for air supply. It has not oeen whollyremoved, according to the latest accounts.Suth religions secrecy, however, is maintainedby the French Goernment that it Is difficultto ascertain the exact truth. Her speed be-

low the eurfaco Is a.2,6 knots. The Morse Isunderstood to be very tlmllar to the Zeoc. butlittle Is known of her. Hhe Is under construc-tion at Cherbourg. The OvmnoteU a smallvessel of four know speed, and was launchedas far hack as 188S.

The United Srates Government has Just or-

dered a boot of the Holland pattern. whl:hpromises :o be a moat formidable craft. Its)characteristic la that It, can be propelledby either steam or electricity, whereas theFrench boats depend upon electricity alone.The boat has three trims above the surface,flush with the surface, and below It. In thefirst case she uus steam and her pecd Is fif-

teen knots: In the last the funnel Is drawndown and the boat proceeds under steam tillthe nressnre In the boilers is exhausted, whenelectricity is employed. She can descend to adepth of elxtv let. and has In addition lotwater ballast a detachable weight. There isan automatic apparatus to prevent diving,whlcu is the great danger of submarine boats.When just below the surface a telescope,fitted with a reflecting prism, Is projected,which enables her to be steered with some ap-

proach to accuracy. There Is an armor-plate-d

connlnirtower for use when she Is ontho surface. The torpedo tubes axe two Innumber, of calibre, and Ave torpedoesare carried. There is a considerable reser-voir of compressed air. so that the boet canremain some hours under the water.

The Italian navy possesses three submarineboats, all of which are said to bo satisfactory.Great Britain has as yet no craft of this de-

scription, and the time has come to askwhetfcer this Is witc. The eubinarine boat,provided it can le rafely navlrated belowthe surface, of which there seems to be littledoubt, is cinablo of rendering gryat servicesin war to a blockading squadron. It could, forInstance, readily effect the removalof the obsta-cles which will clime the entrances to mostnaval prU, and so admit the orthodox tor-pe-

boat. For counter-minin- g It would beof much value, as It not be exposed tohostile fire. Its main defects are at Presentthe difficulty of seeing from it and the lowBpeed which it possesses.

The argument that it would lie liable to behoist with its own petard is also one of someforce since water transmits tho violence of anexplosion. This might, however, ho guardedacalnt by furnishing it with a special delayedaction torpedo, which, when used against ashin, would give the boat time to rise to thesurface. It Is certain that the moral effectof a submarine boat in the enemy's Jndiwould operate very powerfully upon a block-adln- g

fleet which possessed no similar engine.If su;h submarine boats could be carried byships, the Brltith naval ports would be ex-

posed to their attack, where the entrances werenot closed by gates or gatingt descending tothe bottom of thochanuel which gives access.A torpedo lat to lie fluth with the water, liaving only the conning tower Projecting abovetho surface, would bo of little less value forthe attack upon ships. .Even If the speed rtnmuch lower than that of tho newest form oforthodox torpedo boat, the destroyer the smallsize and lncon"p.cuous nsture of the targetwould enable the craft to ajnroach large warships with little risk. It it doubtful whetherhurried and excited gun-Ar- e at night will tieable to put a destroyer put of action: howmuch less such a small object a thlsl Accoid.

a recent Irene of Denmark al;relay possesses torpedo boats o this specialtvoe. Tt might be well fo.-- England to followher example, though we must always demandfrom any vessel built for Ter Majesty's, narya high degree of seaworthiness.

Rake. X. T July 12. Fatalities, mishaps,and odd Incidents have always seemed to attendunduly the gathering of the hay crop In thoborder counties of Wrttern Kew York andNorthern Pennsylvania, but they teem to havebeen unusually numerous In their occurrencethis season. Following Is tho record of the liar-fiel- d

In this respect for but little moro than aweek In this and adjacent counties alone:

Russell Waterhouse, aged 77, a leading farmerof Arkwrlght. Chautauqua county, was helpinghis son Thomas In the hayfleld. They wereloading hay. The elder Wntorhnuse stood onthe top of the load, distributing the hay as hisson pitched It up. A thunder storm was com-ing up, and this was the last load to be hauledin. Suddenly a terrific clap of thunder broke sosharp and near that It frightened the horses.They sprang forward. Jerking the wagon so thatfarmer Waterhouse was thrown from the loadto the ground. He struck on his htad. Illsneck was broken and he died Instantly.

Farmer Thomas Reynolds needed help oneday last week to gather a field of hay before itwas damaged by a coming storm, on his farmat Sullivan, Pa. Borne men were engaged onanother part ot his farm in a Job of sawing witha portable sawmill. He sent his ton to requestthe men to suspend thslr work at the mill andhasten down to help with the bay. One of theoperators at the mill, Fred Holcomb, aged 21,In his hurry to respond to the call, stumbledand fell In front of the saw. Before he couldregain his feet or'lhe bystander could aid himhe was cut to pieces by the saw, his head,an arm. and both legs being severed from hisbody.

Two fatal accident occurred on the Brushfarm, near Darlen Centre. John Sohrader, thehired man, fell from a load of bay with hitpitchfork in bis hand. In some way be fell onthe tines, which passed entirely through hisbody. He lived but a short time. Before thenews of this casualty reached the owner ot thefarm he was mowing bay In his orchard with amowing machine. His twelve-year-ol- d son wasnear by. Farmer Brush called to him to comeand hold up the bough of a tree sohe could drive under it-- The boy held It up. butstood so close that as the machine passed himthe knives on that end of the cutter bar struckhim. cutting of both his feet at the ankle. Hedied three hours later.

Ethel Rice, aged 0. waa watching her brother,John, run the mowing machlng In a Held nearthe house. John stopped the horses where shestood, dismounted from the machine, and toldEthel to hand him the wrench, which lay near.The little girl got the wrench and stepped upnear the machine, getting between the cuttingforks, and handed It to her brother. As he wasreaching for li the hore started. The quicklyshifting knltes caugot the child and cut oilboth her legf near the knees.

At Belford. Pa., on Thursday Joseph Bell,aged 73. was at work In his hay Debt. LeviSlity. who Is working to become the Populistcandidate for Representative next tail, wasdriving by, and stopped to talk to Farmer Bell,who walked over to tne fence.

" Might better let your hay rot down In thefield." said Candidate Shay. "It won't bring83 a ton the way this country is being run."

"Three dollars a ton!" exclaimed FarmerBell, exclttdl). " Why, that would drive us tothe poorhouse."

"Certainly it would, aud it will !" declaredShay.

Farmer Bell stood with a disturbed look on hisface a moment, staggered forward, and tellheavily to the ground Shay, supposing Kell hadfainted from effects of tiiu beat. Jumped fromhis wag a to helu him, but the farmer drad.

George Ring, a hired man on the farm ofWilliam bmtth.'his father-in-la- near Alton,was ridlug a mowing machine one day lastweek, when one of the horses stepped in a-Jacket"' ueet. instantly the irritable occu-pants of the nest came out in a swarm andstung the horses, whlcb. freuzled with the painof tne polsouous atlngers. ran away. Ringwas thrunn from Ills seat on the mower,and although he fortunately fell out of the wayot the knives, he struck a spot wiere a patchot elder brusn bad been cut, at the edgeot the flrla, leaving stiff, sharp butts standing.When other men working in the ueld hurriedto his aid they found him Impaled on the stub-bles, one having been forced through tne fleshytart ot his left thlgn and oue through his rUlitshoulder. Oue ear was torn from bis hd.his lower Jaw was broken, and his body bail I ylacerated by the Jagged elder stuuble. The fullextent of Ring's Injuries was not known, norcould h be extricated from his awfulsituation for ten minutes after the ar-rival of the men. A horde nf yellow-Jacke- ts

nad followed Mru as he was thrownfrom the machine, were stinging him fiercelyon every bit of flesh exposed, and had to befought away and killed before the men couldrescue the unfortunate Ring, who was conscious,and uttering heart-rendin- g cries of agony. Hisrescuers were terribly slung by the yellowjack-e- u

before tbsy could get Ring away. Ha waacarried to lb farmhouse. It is thougbl that,notwithstanding bis frightful Injur!, he willrecover.

The frenzied horses, crazed by ths stinging otthe lyellowjacketa, dashed madly across thefield and In among a group of young chestnuttrees. There the mwolng machine was smashedto pieces. Along tbe edge of the Held oppositethe one where Ring was thrown and fen feetbelow It runs ( utler Creek. Tbe horses, freedfrom the macnlne. ran straight for that side oftbe Held, aud plunged down the sleep bank Intothe creek.

The water Is wide and deep at that spot, and.handicapped by their harness and being hitchedtogether, botn horses were drowned. It Isprobable that they would have bad to be killedat any rate, for they bad been blinded by thestinging of the yeliowjackets, and their bodieswere swollen to an Immense size by the poison.

Danlsl Dunn of Scotlsbnrg was adjusting hismowing machine wnen his horses started ud.His left band was caught between one of theguards on the cutter bar and a three-Inc- h plankwhich was In front of tbe machine. Tbe Ironguard was forced diagonally through the palmof Dunn's hand and two Inches Into tbeplank, pinning him fast. He spoke lohis horses, and, fortunately, they stopped.Dunn was alone and could not possiblyrelease himself from his agonizing po-

sition. It was half an hour before anyon heard bis cries for help and came tohis relief. The plank had to be split Intwo before the Iron guard could be releasedfrom It, so it could be drawn back throughDunn's hand. Through the long and tedious

his release Dunn gave directions fort with astonishing coolness, but the lualant tooron was removed from his hand he fell to the

ground unconscious.On Wednesday Mrs. John Marshall hitched a

horse to a wheel rake and started for the Heldto help her husband In hsylng. On the way thehorse took fright at a dog that sprang at It fromthe roadside and ran away. Mrs. Marshall uthrown from ber seat on the tedder. Her rightleg and arm were broken.

THE SUIl'S AXD THE STATIONS.

The Tendeacy Toward the rUreaattucnlnsor the Fleeta la Houe Water.

WamiisiOtu, July IS. The time now fixedfor beginning the summer maumuvres of Ad-miral Dunce's squadron Is Aug. 1, since it willnot be practicable to collect earlier the vessels,about a dozen In number, that hare been

for taking part In them. Fur the cor.responding exercises of Admiral neardslee'aforce, on the Pacific, no time has jet been set.

Events havo brought about a chnnceof polleror perhaps rather ot popular feeling, in regard tothe routine work of our navy, A few years agothere was a constant nagging of the naval au-thorities to send the ships to foreign stations,instead of letting them remain In homo waters.And tnat demand was strengthened by the

number of calls for them in variousparts of the world. It was Impossible to hudships enough to answer those calls. Hawaii,Samoa. China. Brazil, Argentina, Chill, Peru,Ecuador, Colombia, Nicaragua, Guatemala,Armenia, and Behrlng Sea. one after another,and sometimes several together, demanded thepreseuce of vessels, and the home squadronswere stripped to supply them.

Hot Just now tbe only foreign countries thatrequire special attention from our navy areCuba and Venezuela, and they can be watchedby tbe North Atlantic squadron In home waters,a single vessel being detached for service atKey West. Admiral bunco's ships have performed this latter duty in turn, the Maine atpreseut undertaking it, with tbe Montgomeryperhaps likely to succeed her. Ou the Europeanstation we now bave three vessels, tne Minneap-olis. San Francisco, and Marblehead; but It issaid that the first of these may soon returnhome. On the South Atlantic station three essels. the Lancaster, Vantfo, and Casllne, arofound sodlclent. The Aslallo station has beenreduced by the withdrawal of several vessels,the latest Income horn being the Charleston,and the onl) cruiser ceul out lo take their D.ttc--being the ISostnn. The latter, with the Oliuipla.tbe Detroit, the Vorktown, the Machms. andtbe Monocacy now constitute our force ttiere.

Contrasted with there we ntid ihu hoiuv htalions Uiili on the Atlantic and the Pacificcoasta strengthened as Ihty never have beenbefore. The lorce put at Aamtral Hume's dis-posal for manuuvr ng will be the battle stilusMassachusetts. Indiana, Maine, and lexaa, thcruisers New York. Nenark, Cincinnati, Ra-leigh, and Montgomery, the monitors Ampht-trli- e

and Terror, lue ram Katahdui.and theboat Fern. Possibly tbe Terror may not

be available. If her pneumatic turret gearshould fail to operate successfully, while onevessel, prubably the Montgomery, as has beensaid, will be needed al Key eL iiut thereare oiher vessels In home waters, like llioMianlnnomoh and the torpedo boats Cushlng,Ericsson, and islilelto. wtnle the cruiser Chi-cago and AUanta aro under repair, and the

I Hruoklyn and various gunboats and torpedoi boat, upproachlng completion. The Pacifloj station, with the Oregon, Monterey, Monailnock,

Ptilladelphta, and Bennlugton In home waters,i the Adams at Honolulu, the Marlon at i'ulta,

and several vessels under repair at Mare Island,was also never su strong as now.

We anall undoubtedl) see aome strengtheningof th foro.gu stations as the number ot avail-able ships Increase. For example, the threenew il gunboats. Nahvlll, V

and Helena, toon to havo tbelr trialtrips, ulil probably be rent lo the Asiatic sta-tln- n

or to that and the South American, forwhich they were expressly dealgned. tome ofthe six compoaile gunbouls will also probablyfind their way to foreign stations, as mey aresuited to economical service In tropical watersfrom their sheathing. Hut the great feature ofour future naval policy will probably be that ofstrong home tlaltons.

There are seieral reasons why this maybeexpected. Tbe Drt la that the Increase in thenumber of our coastwise battle ships, torpedoboats, monitors, and other vessels intendea pri-marily for home waters must neceasarlli showIts fruts In our naval strength In these waters.Again, with the Increased speed and coal ca-pacity of war ships, tt Is coming to be recog-nized ttiat only a moderate forte Is needed forretention on foreign stations, since it is easy tohurry ships from our Atlantic or i'nrlllc coaststo any part of the world. 'I tils Isanudvantagawe have in our double seaboard. A third rea-son Is that the retention of vessels on home sta-tions gives opportunity for the fleet drill andother training which nave long been coveted forour vessels, and are felt to be necessary to thohighest efficiency, yet In former years were nutpracticable. 'I bus the squadrons In home waterswill be regarded as training schools as well assources of coast defence.

This plan will allow tho carrying out of thenew system nf reserves, which is to be pnt Intooperation very soon. L'nder It, as soon asbattleships have been thoroughly tried, they

be withdrawn from commission, or elseleptwith only small crews aboard, their places

In active service being taken by newer battle-ships which need to undergo teat. Thua theexpense of maintenance will bo greatly de-creased. The same ayatem will be applied tomonitors nnd torpedo lx.au. and It Is believedthat very soon thrre-flftn- s of these classes ofvessels will, except when there is special needof their services, lie held In reserve.

Tbe gaueral conclusion Is that the tendencyin our nary hereafter to keep tbe borne fleetsstrong will be even more marked than now,although, of course, care will be taken thatthere shall he no lack, of variety of experienceor of whatever tend to efficiency in service.

The Canadian uhamplonship tennis tourna-ment will be the main contest of this week. TheAmerloan players engaged In the Huflalo tour-nament wilt be strongly reenf orcod by a numberof cracks, and It Is likely thnt this year, as last,the Canucks will have small chance of keepingtheir trophies. Larned will default, of course,for the challong cup, and lfllooks as If Fischer,who has not lost a match tills year, would suc-ceed him as champion. The women's challengecup will probably be captured by one of theparty of American players, which has beenformed for an excursion into Canada. Thochampion, Misa Moore, Is said to be one of theparty.

It will be a long jump from Niagara to Long-woo-

but the "circuit" players will probablybe able to mako It despite the fact that theLongwood competition begins on Monday, JulyCO, The Lone wood Cricket Club has made aneffort locutdown tho usual unwieldy entry list,by securing for Longwood tho second of thethree National Tennis Association handicaps.Thusthero will be two big contests, the usualtournament In men's singles, for the LongwoodChallenge Cup, and the handicap singles.
