Island off Porto Rico, July 25, via St. Thomas, July 26 -The United States military expedition Vhlch left Guantanamo on Thursday landed here sueee-Sfully today aft. r a skirmish with the Spanish troops. No Americans were killed. The skirmish occurred between a <k taehnunt of the Spanish army and a crew of thirty belonging to a launch from the auxiliary cruiser Gloucester, formerly J Pierpont Morgan's "Cors .Alar.” b’our Spaniards were killed out. No Americans were hurt. Our troops pushed forward promptly to eff.ct the capture of the railroad leading to Pome, which is only ten miles from here. MILES CHANGED HIS PLANS. At the Last Moment but Secured a Good Pt sition. Washington, July 26 The government is waiting to receive confirmation of the reported debarkation of Miles' troops. The war department did not expect to tn ar of'Miles’ landing near Ponce as men tioned in the newspaper dispatches, but admitted that Miles is master of his own movements and it is entirely conceivable that he acquired information since the original plans were formed for the cam pnign against Porto Rico that led him to modify them at the mom. n: when they were to be put into execution. While the distance from Ponce to San Juan is much greater than from the point originally selected for landing. There is. according to the military charts, a splendid fourteen foot macadamized road leading directly across the island to San Juan. Such a road as this would be very little affected by the torrental rains at this sea son so it might be possible for our troops, accompanied by field artillery, to make the march across the seventv miles be tween Ponce and San Juan in less time than would be required to cover i much shorter distance between the capital and some other points named as the landing place. NON-COMMUTAL Was the Secretary About lhe Sailing of Watson's Fleet. Washington. July 26—When the cabinet assembled at 11 o'clock today Secretary .Alger and Long both announced that they had receive I no dispatches from the Port > Rico . xp. .lition. Algor was especially expecting to hear fio.u .Miles and is much disappointed that no word came from him as to the landing reports of which have been transmitted through the Associated Press. Long is also keenly < xpectant of advices from that quarter. Referring to the ex pedition of Watson to the Spanish coast. Long said there was nothing new with re gard to the project. "It is surely going is it not?” he was asked. ‘ L is waiting orders from the presi dent,” was the reply. Long, however, noticeably refrained from dir.itly answering the question. Secretary Pay stated that there had been no change in the peace outlook and so far as he knew the administration bad no information of the reported peace note the Spanish are quoted as framing, 't is said there have bt-en no overtures for peace brought to his attention. FIRED SHOTS” AT THE DANDY. Spaniards Shoot Into the Air Towards Associated Press Boat. Key West. July 26—The squad of Span ish soldiers in three miles of Bahai Honda yesterday fired half a dozen shots at the Associated Press dispatch boat Dandy which was passing two mites out. A flash and smoke signal also marked the progress of the Dandy along the shore which seem ed to be excellently watched. The country from a point west of Bahai Honda to Havana is in a high state of cul tivation. The red hull of the Spanish steamer Alfonso XIII. sunk near Mariel is a conspicuous landmark.

NO RULES FOR REFEREES. Clerk of the United States Supreme Court Issues a Circular. j .Mr. J H. .McKenney, clerk of the su . pr< me court of the United States, has writ I ten a letter to Mr. H. H. King, clerk of t the United States court in this city, stat ' ing that section 30 of the new United • Slates court in this city, stating that sec ; tion 30 of the new United States bankrupt I ey law states that all rules, etc., for the j carrying out of the act must be put in force by the United States supreme court, | and calls attention to the fact that the | court has adjourned for the term and will not be in session until October 16. There has been on action by the court upon the new rules, the letter states. The fact that the supreme court has not acted upon the law will not, however, pre vent the recently appointed referees in bankruptcy from going ahead and attending to business. It has been decided upon pr°tty good authority that they can pro ceed and file affidavits of what has been done and in this manner bring the law into operation at once. Senator Hoa,r of Massachusetts, who was on the special senatorial committee framing the bank ruptcy law, gives it as his opinion that such a procedure can be had. COLD SHOULDER FOR MISS JESSIE.

July 26. —The papers here con tinue to confound Miss Jessie Schley, the ! daughter of Charles S.'til. y, of 'Mi'lw uikee. | and cousin of 'Commodore Schley, with Miss Shafter. Miss Schley recently ar rived at Madrid on a peace mission with out the approval of her father. Neither the qutn n regent nor any responsible .per son received her. She will probably be re- 1 qm sted to depart is soon as possible. A special dispatch from Madrid says: Miss Shafter has been requested to leave Spain forthwith.” FLOWERS-DOWNS. Well Known Young Maconite Marries a Flor ida Lady. On Monday last at the Mulberry Street i parsonage Dr. Pinson united in marriage I Mr. J. E. Flowers, of Macon, and Miss i Mamie B. Downs, of Chipley, Fla. | This is the happy union of two loving i and lovable young people. Mr. Flowers is an engineer on the Macon and Birmingham i railroad, and is well thought of by every : one. He began his career as office boy with The News eight or nine years ago i and has gradually* worked his way up to a position of value and trust. Miss Downs is a bright and pretty young lady, and a prize of great value. Mr and Airs. Flowers are making their home in La Grange for the present, but will probably return to Macon soon. RUSH IS OVER. War Has Simmered Down to Meagre Pro portions. Washington. July 26 —So far as our war with Spain is concerned, the rush is over. Nothing yet remains.to be done ex cept the work of occupation. With Cuba, Puerto Rican and Philippine waters swept clean of Spanish warships, and with our ! incomparable superiority in machine guns, ammunition and equipment of every kind, the work of occupation is an easy task. Even the capture of Havana Is no great task if we shall take our time and prop erly use our tremendous superiorities. In i the present situation it is a matter of small consequence to the United States what Spain thinks about peace. Deprived ; of sea power, she can but sit in her fort ressed peninsula and shake impotent fists and look fierce at her enemies, thousands of mites away over the sea.

THE NEWS. SUNK SANDOVAL IN THE HARBOR Gross Violation of the Terms of Surrender bv the HOLGUIN MOST SUBRENDER. It is an Important Point on the Is land and Its Capture Will Be a Strategic Event. Guantanamo Bay, Santiago, July 26—The Spaniards have sunk the Spanish gunboat Sandoval which has been lying near Gai mantra. This is looked uixin as a grots breach of the terms of surrender which the Spaniards had knowledge of. It is difficult to see how the body o f Spanish troops at Holguin can fail to sur render soon although reinforced by the Spanish forces at Gibrara. Holguin is one of the commanding points in eastern Cuba and the surrender of its garrison will be an important event in the war. News from there is expected shortly. The main body of the fleet here is clean ing up. The Texas will leave for New York shortly in order to undergo repairs. The movement of the other ships under Samp son’s command depend upon the decisions of the authorities at Washington and the impression is growing among naval offi cers of high rank iu these waters that it. is not advisable to send the fleet to Spain without previously enabling the ships to undergo a thorough preparation. PUERTO RICO NEVER TAKEN. Twice Attacked by England But Spaniards Beat Her Off. Washington, July 26 —Puerto Rico has never been taken. It .has had the storm for ally, fever, too. Twice England at tacked it. The Spaniards beat her oft'. Once they beat the Dutch. But, though the island has never been taken, the island has been sacked. It took pirates to do it, though. The first was a choice person named Drake. Accounts of the adventure differ, but they agree in this: His marines were dressed in silk, his ships were rigged with damask, his top sails were cloths of gold. They were as beautifully equipped. They carried basi lisks, culverins, serpentines and bom bardes. The latter the old prints describe as mortar pieeis furnished with hollow shot "stuffed with fyre-work” the smallest part whereof hitting a man being guaran teed to spoil him. More effective for cara vels and caracks than Camara’s cheipicals, they were first used for shelling purposes just 310 years ago. It was a little later that Drake appeared with them in the harbor of San Juan. When he left the town was in ruins and his ballast was decatoons. Drake had Elizabeth behind him. Cumber land,who followed him there, was an equally choice, but an entirely private corsair. What he did was on his ov.u hook. What he lacked was the steady gale of good fortune which his colleague en joyed. Though he took San Juan, fever took his men. Thereat suspecting, as an ancient chronicler naively relates, “that the Span ish had some treacherous design on foot.” he broke away with hut a pea"! chest for a souvenir. Since then .the island has withstood the attacks of three distinct flotillas. There is luck in odd numbers. Now for the change. FIRST PAPER Published by Americans in Cuba Appears at I Santiago.

HIGHLAND LADDIES Cannot Carry Arms in Boston at the Cele bration, Ottawa, July 26. —The state government of Massachusetts informed the Highland Cadets of Montreal that they cannot at tend the gathering at Boston on the 15th of September carrying guns, because of the old statue which forbids the carrying of arms by any except the state militia of the United States troops and the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Company. But for this law the state would be glad of their presence. neeiahhty thar htrah rthar htrahtrahtrara boundsoldiers HAND AND FOOT. Insubordination at the Guard House at Camp Price Last Night. The three men who are held at Camp Price and who were at first supposed to be deserters, threatened to tear down the guard house at the park and were put in irons. It seems that they were not satisfied with the food wiich was sent them and they threw it out of the window. The sergeant of tbe guard immediately reported their act to Colonel Ray, who came to see what the prisoners were do ing. When he arrived he asked them what was the matter with the food which had been sent them and the men said that they did not like it and would not eat it. Colonel Ray told them that if they '’id not eat what was sent them that they would get nothing at all. He turned to go out when one of the men cursed hiip and threatened to “run off with the guard house.” Colonel Ray ordered all three of the men put in chains and gave the guards orders to shoot them if they made any attempt to move. The men were put to work this morning cleaning up about camp and when a News reporter passed the guard house one of them who was tied up was singing “We are natural born kickers and won’t eat beans.” One of the men said that they had noth ing but beans since they had been here and were determined not to eat any more of them. There is some talk of courtmartialing the men for insubordination but it is thought that they will be sent to their regiment today. COTTON IN GOOD SHAPE. Farmers Out in the Warrior Report on Their Cotton- Mr. Sam B. Causey. Jr., of Lizella, was in the city today and he reports that the crops in his section are fine. "Yes,” he said, “the crops are the finest I ever saw in my life and I have been been farming for twenty years. Cotton will begin to open next month and I ex pect that many of my neighbors will get a bale by the 10th of next month. I have never seen 4 better .fruit crop and if my neighbors were near a railroad they could ship many cars of peaehesi which have to be ted to the hogs. "I think that everybody in my section will make enough corn this year. For the past lew years the farmers have been short on corn, but this year I think that they will make enough. The recent rains saved the crops. Before the rain came every one was feejing despondent, but now it is dif ferent- The farmers are beginning to lay by their cotton and a majority of them will finish by next week. LADIES’ NECKWEAR.

New Officers Have Been Formally Elected and Old Ones Step Out. The order of the Golden Chain is the last of the fraternal insurance societies to find its way into the courts. Its troubles have been about the officers of the su preme grand lodge, the old officers refus ing to give way to the new ones elected at a convention in Richmond in >May. The old officers have finally, in accord ance with the decision of the Maryland court of appeals, retired and turned over the assets of the order to the new officers. There was a lodge of th order in Savan nah, but it has practically disbanded, the various members forwarding their assess ments, etc., individually and each being responsible to himself alone.

Game, president of Cooksburg College, South Carolina, was elected to succeed Professor (Browder as professor of philos ophy at Wesleyan. It had been practically decided before the meeting that Rev. Mr. Game would be elec ted, as he is regarded by the trustees as the ablest man that could be had for the position. The trustees had an important conference with Dr. Roberts, but are not yet ready to give out their plans to the public. Dr. Roberts left today for an extended tour through North Georgia in the interest of the college. Josiah Bethea Game, A. M., M.

He is at present, rector of the Cokesbury Conference school, one of the oldest of Methodist schools in America. Under his management, this school has been reju venated, and is now, as a result of his two years of labor, in better condition than it has been at any time since the civil war. This the school at which Dr. W. C. Bass, Bishop McTyeire, Dr. J. W. Hinton, Dr W. D. Kirkland, Generals Wallace, Ker shaw, Capers, Gary, Governor Evans, with hosts of other great men of the last half century, have been prepared for their col lege life, and where impressions for good were made upon these and others—impres sions which have endured. He ;s successful in both the class room and in looking after the minor details of school work, canvassing and the like. He is c-ons’dered a strong speaker, anl in this regard will materially aid Wesleyan. He is a Methodist minister and will probably join the South Georgia Confer ence within a short time.

WK'S MIHM At Present is, of Course, Very Far Below Our Minimum, but the Government Does Not Object, Washington, July 26.—There is reason to believe at last that initial steps have been taken for the opening of negotiations for peace. It is imjossible to learn any details at this moment or to obtain confirmation. MAXIMUM TERMS As Proposed by Spain Are Short of Our Minimum. Washington, July 26. —A reported state ment from the Vatican which purports to be terms of peace acceptable to both the United States and Spain, is set down here as one of the many feelers thrown dtit within the past two weeks, probably to test public feeling in the United States, and secondarily to break slowly to the masses of the Spanish people the realization of the complete defeat, something of which they are not aware. It is suspected here that the conditions named are annexation to the United States of Cuba and Porto Rico and the relinquish ment to Spain of the Philippines, which represent what may be now looaed upon as the maximum concessions Spain is willing to make. From this point of view the statement is not discouraging, though, of course, it must be realized that the maximum is very ■far below the American minimum. Still there must be some starting point for the negotiations that will in the end lead up to peace, and therefore, public at tention to these various feelers is not dep recated by our government, though so far it can be positively asserted they have no basis in fact on this side of the Atlantic. OHIO REGIMENT Received Orders Today to Report at Tampa, Washington, July 26. —Orders were is sued today for the First and Fifth Ohio regiments to report at Tampa prepared for service at 'Porto Rico. Arrangements will be made as soon as possible for their transportation. These troops enlis-ted for service in the Porto Rico campaign, but were crowded out by the troops from the southern states, which claimed priority in selection. MANY ARE IN GUARD HOUSE. Soldiers Seem to Like It—Of ficers Are Stricter Than Ever. • No drill was held at the camp yester day afternoon on account of the rain and on account of the men being so tired after working all day moving the tents. The men have more room and can sleep more comfortably since the tents were all moved, as they have five extra tents to each company. The officers’ tents are now in a very pretty place. At first many of the officers had their tents in the sun, but all of them are now shaded by the big trees. Many kicks are heard among the pri vates about the way they are being treated. Some of them say that they had rather stay in the guard house than in the com pany street. The officers’ school is still in session and will be continued until they become per fect in all the evolutions of drill. The green squads are progressing nicely. They are handling the guns well and soon will be able to put up a good.drill. Guard mounting is now the most Inter esting feature of the day, as a great deal of interest is taken in the selection of an orderly for the colonel. About one hundred men are detailed for guard mounting and out of this hundred the man who is neatest in made orderly. The sick men in the hospital are very much better and will be up in a few days. The guard house has been dubbed Sol diers’ Comfort” and it is kept full all the time. One private said yesterday that he had rather stay in the guardhouse than at home. Captain Maddox is now in command of Company M. Chaplain Parker has his tent fixed up and is now staying in camp Services are held at the Y. M. C. A. tent every night and much good is being ac complished. Regimental drill will be held this after noon and the band will turn out at re treat. The drill promises to be the best one held since the regiment has been in camp. Last week of the Fire Sale Rochester Shoe stock. Great est bargains yet offered. FOR BIG HEADS.
