I AT THE SAME PORT. THE "ESMERALDA'' AND "CHARLES- j TON" IN STRIKING DISTANCE. Now "What -will be Done'.'?The Chilian Likely to be Crippled for Lack of Fuel? j Our "Sail Francisco"' and "Baltimore" j Anions the Insurgent Fleet. Washington", D. C., May 10.?Af- j ter a week's waiting some tangible news j was received at the navy department from the "Charleston." First came a i dispatch irom Acapulco stating that th e | Chilian insurgent cruiser "Esmeralda" j had put out of Acapu.'co harbor yester- | day and had returned to port today, j Later on through the state department | a dispatch came saying the Charles- ; ton" had arrived at Acapulco and that j the '"Esmeralda" was still in port, but j giving no news of the kiItata." What next step will be taken no one \ ~ * - ?v* Ar\<- Ar fVoft ? LUC suite UKpai uucut ftuy<> o \/i loavv to tell. The "Charleston" will take on coal as her supply probably ran out during the week's chase. Whether the "Esmeralda" is to have the privilege of taking coal aboard can uot be answered here, as it is a matter entirely within the pleasure ot the Mexican "government, but the opinion here is against it, as the neutrality laws would be strained by the Mexican government if it alio ved anything more than water and food to be supplied to the insurgents. As to the ''Charleston" it is quite probable that commander, (Japtain Kemey, oas oruers admitting large discretionary movements and will lie at or near Acapulco for a time trusting that the "Itata," which is a slow seven knot ship, has not yet passed down the coast, anci wiil try to coal m that neighborhood. If she is sighted the "Charleston" will doubtless try to seize her. She can not do this in Mexican waters, so that it would be nec.? essary to head her oil'outside the three mile line, or if unsuccessiull to follow her to sea when she coes out. What fciTV fvnsvwaIj-7aV will /3/\ in tlio tilC U \A\y IU VIAV IMVMM time is problematical. The general expression is that the officers ot the vessel' will rely more upon strategy than force to obtain the supplies carried by the "Itata" and some officers believe that sbe is trying to lure her iuto a trap wh~:e she can be easily taken. Recourse to force to prevent the j ^ "Charleston" from capturing the "Itata," however, it is said would, be HI* the death blow of the insurgent cause in Chile, as the entire naval force of the United States in the Paciiic would, it necessary, be called into play to destroy the insurgent navy. The cablegram received at the department from Admiral McCann on the "San Francisco" announced that the "Baltimore" and "San Francisco" were at Iquique together. So it appears that j the "Baltimore" has come north and ; the "San Francisco" has been stayed I in her southern course just at the point j where the Chilian insurgent navv is now | nearly altogether assembled. This j point is almost in the extreme north of Chili, and the place where the "Itata" would naturally find her des'ination if she eluded the "Charleston." Washington, ^Iay IS.?Just before 4 o'clock this afternoon the Navy Department received confirmation of a dispatch to the effect that the Charleston sailed Southward from Acapulco last evening leaving the Esmeralda in l.ort. There was no word of the Itata. The presumption that the Charleston's commander was satisfied that the Iiata had passed Acapulco either before he j arrived there or while he lay in port, and tnat tie uas resumca uie long ctiase. j It is estimated that the Itata has been j steaming along at about seven knots, i and as she was ten days out last Friday i night she should, at that time, have been just off Acapulco, where it is reported i'rom that place that she met Esmeralda. As she is a much smaller vessel than the Emeralda and burns very much less coal, it is regarded as within probabilities that latter vessel might have supplied her with this necessary article, which would account for the strange war ship which was in port getting a new supply < f coal. If it be true that the Itata was off Acapulco Friday night she had two full days start of the Charleston when the latter started again in pursuit last night. This is about the same lead that she had when she started from .San Diego but it ??does not appear that the chase is any nearer conclusion. But if the two vessels now follow the same course, the Charleston steaming at fourteen knots TTTt + Vk fna Tfrtfo 1-VT7 tA_ sliuuxu u^r >t uu iriats jlwch-c*. -ktj wvmorrow night. This event of course is based upon the assumption which is not founded upon strong probability that the two vessels are steering exactly the same course. If the Charleston passes i Itata the next port where they are likely to be beard from is Panama, about 1,200 miles irom Acapulco or Payta, Peru, siill further down the coast. As it is the vessels have probably covered less than half the distance to Iquique, the nearest Chilian port. no chance of a conflict. City of Mexico Via Galveston, i May IS.?The war department, having ! asked for niws in regard to Chilian in-1 surcent vessels from Acapulco, has been | informed that there is no probablity of! a tight between the United States steam- I er Charleston and the Chilian steamer j Esmeralda. There is no sign of the Itata, and it is thought that if she has not fallen in with an American war ship she ic nnifariHiorilv of}'thp> orvisf. of t"pnfr:il America by this time, haviug been furnished with fuel by the Esmeralda. Gen Pedro Hinajosa, secretary wrr, declares to an Associated Press correspondent that Mexico only insists that her neutrality be respected and will not interfere in the matter. Gen Hinajosa says his orders are not to sell coal to insurgent vessels or allow them to load arms m Mexican territory. One of the officers of the Esmeralda in an interview at Acapulco said: "We will try to get coal here, but if this is impossible we are sure oi getting it within a few hours sail. We are not [ afraid of a conflict with t he Charleston, ! but our orders are to be prudent and not! provoke a conflict."

Mammoth mass meetings ia all pirts of the country are to be inaugurated during the coming summer to agitate this question, which the Cincinnati Convention.

A great deal ol' injury is done to corn by deep, close culture with the double shovel plow or any otner implement tbat severs or greatly disturbs the roots. Plowing deep and close to the roots is harmful at any time, but especially late in the season, as the larger roots developed late and those which originated earlier in the growth of the plants are cut or pulled oil. To ascertain the extent of the damage from such cultivation a trial was made-<t the Minnesota experimental station. Hows of corn were thoroughly root pruned to the depth of six inches and at the same distance from the hills on all four sides. The first root cutting was done when the plants were seven inches high, and the second when at a height, ot' fifteen i in^h.ps The efTectt on the crrovvth ot I the corn was very marked. Contrasted with similar rows adjacent, not rootpruned, the average difference in yield was thirteen aid a half bushels of corn and one quarter ton of i odder per acre against disturbing the roots. In another experiment made just as the corn was "laid by," root pruning at a distance of eight inches from the hills lowered the yield three bushels 10 the acre. At this stage of theiv growth hilling up four inches around the plants with the hoe had no apparent elfect. A Monument to Mr. Uavia. N asiiville, Term., May iu.?j oiin A.
