NEW YORK, September 22.-The

Dora Rosario Lapeira and her steT-
daughter, Amelia Lapeira y Lapria
both claimed American CITIZENSHIP
when arrested, but Notwithstanding nc
report of the arrest has been received
by Consul Springer from the Spanish
officials. The charge against these two
victims of Spanish brutality, now con-
fined incommunicado in Rocojidas, is
that they were guilty of corresponding
with relatives in the field. 1t is claimed
by officials who made the arrest-In-
spectors Queba and Martinez-that let
tiers were found in the house from two
sons of Sonora Lapeira and the fiance
of Amelia. These three young men are
operating with Aranguren in Havana

After the regimental drill last night
and when the troops had gathered in
the drill shed, Colonel Fisher addressed
the men, saying how pleased he was
with the way they had gone through
with the various movements on the

the Regiment Baseball Team and said
that it was his intention to remember
them substantially. At this there was
great applause. He remarked that the
reason for getting the men into the
shed was to see if the place would hold
them all. He thought that it would on
