?Madrid, nlay !IL -Yesterday the Minis-
ter of Marine, (L'apt. Aunon, remised a
despatch from Minitel Cervera, in aim -
mend of the Cape Verde Squadron of the
Spanish fleet. It read; 'Sit/Miami de

vera did not sight any American ships
during the voyage. He announcethat
the crows of his ships aro in perfect health
and enthusiastic.
Continuing, the despatch seem: "The
blockading vessele quickly left on the
approach of the squadron, whose tualval
)ms created the greatest excitement and
enthusiasm at Santiago de Cuba. Im-
mense crowds of people thronged the
quays and cheered our sailors. Havana's
relief at the safe arrival of the fleet is
very great, as it was feared the Ameri-
can ships which left the blockade had
gone to intercept the Spanish fleet. It is
now believed the Americans fled in order
to avoid a reverse."
The Minister of Marine immediately
went to the residence of the Premier,
Senor Sagasta, and communicated this
information. Re then proceeded to the
palace for the purpose of informing the

Spain Will Fight Until an Honorable
Peace Is Secured.
Madxid, May 21. -The Ministers, in
full uniform, appeared in the Senate yes-
terday. Owing to the circumstances the
new Cabinet is already named the Cir-
cumstantial Cabinet.
The Premier, Senor Sagasta, explained
the Ministerial crisis, and asserted that
the new Ministry would continue the
policy of the former Ministry. He related
how "Spain did everything to avoid war
until America, violating all recognized
diplomacy, attacked Spain with an in-
justioe unprecedented in the annals of
civilized bistory. and compelled Spain to
respond with war to war, which Spain
would continue to the utmost, until an
honorable peace is obtainable."
"This," the Premier explained, "is a
strong policy, and the new Government
Will also energetically conduct negotia-
tions with Europe and other states."
Congratulations to Cervera.
Count Penaramiro proposed the Sen-
ate's congratulations to A.dmiral Cervera
on his arriving safely at Santiago de

can squadrons."

ine, responded in the name of the navy,
highly extolling A.clmiral Cervera.
The congratulations were voted. unani-

New York, May 21. -The Maritime
Exobange received word today that the
French brigantine Granville, chartered by
Senor Polo to cameo coal to St. Pierre

Key Wesr, May 21. -The Spaetish loss
during the recent engagement at Cien-

States cruiser Marblehead Ineked up sev-
eral Cubans in an open boat, some miles
down the coast, including Calorie, Lieut.
Olvarez and three privates, from an in-
surgent carap near Cienfuegos. They re,
ported that the Spatelsla losses and the
damitete -wrought by the shells from the
warships were heavy. The hospitals at
Cienfuegos, they said, wore full of wound-
ed; and fear prevailed everywhere that
the American warships would return to
complete the work of destruction.

Fifteen hundred Spaniards were sta-

EXECUTION OF TOM NULTY,
The Brutal Murderer of His Three Sisters
and Young Brother Died Like a
Stoic -Disgraceful Scene.
Joliette, Que., May 21. -Tom Nulty,
the young man W110 murdered his three
sisters and young brother in Noveznber
last near Rawdon, was hanged in the
yard of the county jail here yesterday
morning. The drop fell at 9.01.
Hangman Radcliffe and his apparatus
did the work well. Otherwise, however,
the execution was a disgrace, so muoh so
that Radcliffe lodged a formal complaint.
The whole thing seemed like a circus.
Some three hundred wore officially admit-
ted to the execution and, of course, these
appreciated the solemnity of the hour,
but nearly a thousand laughing, jeering
men had secured means of access to the
roofs of the jail and jail sheds by means
of ladders, and then spent the time laagh-
ing and shouting, entirely careless of the
awfully tragic deed about to take place.
eTulty was stolid and apparently as un-
concerned as when on trial. He walked
up the high stairs of the scaffold unassist-
ed, and with a firm stem Part of the time
yesterday he spent in writing letters, by
proxy, of course, Mr. Rivet, a young
lawyer, writing them for him. One a
these was to his parents, in whioh he
frankly owned up to the murder, and
asked their pardon. He said he was crazed
with love for Miss L'Heureux, and did not
see any other way of being able to marry
and bring ber borne.
Nulty's father was at Rivard Hotel,
the most unconcerned man in town, and
-would have witnessea the execution had
he been permitted. He took ebarge of his
son's body at 11 oeilock.

WELLS & RIcHARDsow Co.,
GENTLE/SEA :-I ant very pleased to be
able to tell you of the great good that I
have derived from the use of your Paine's
Celery Compound. Before using your
valuable compound I was so crippled with
rheumatism that I had to crawl on hands
and knees from one place to another. I
also suffered from neuralgia and dreadful
headaches, and could not get more than
one or two hours sleep each niaht. I often
thought it would be better to die than
live and endure ray terrible agony.
I was happily advised to use Paine's
Celery Compound, and atter use of six
bottles the rheumatism and neuralgia are
banished, and I now eat, rest and sleep
well. My present improved state of
health is due entirely to the health -giving
virtues of Paine's Celery Compound,
which has done wonders for me. My hus-
band is now using it for dyspepsia, and it
is doing wonders for him. My neighbors
to whom I have recommended Paine's
Celery Compound have been greatly
blessed.
Yours truly,
