It has -been learned by the wardeparttniMitthat General Toral, tlie civil governor of Santiago di Cuba, and the archbishop held a conference, at which it wfls decided to consult Captain General Blanco and the Spanish government at home.

A recruiting oflfi-cer is expected to be in Weir City on Thursday to enlist those who were unable to get to Ft. Scott to enlist.
