SELECTING A CAMP SITE.
Eight Miles From Havana Two
Camps VIII he Pitched.

Washington, Nov S.--Colonel Hecker,
with Colonel Lee of the board which was
sent to Cuba to select camp site for the
American army of occupation, has reach
ed Washington and has had several con-
ferences with the president and Secretary
Alger The secretary has approved the
locations selected by the Hecker board
for the principal garrison, which will be
in the neighborhood Of Havana. The
place selected lies about eight miles south
OF Havana, in the neghborhood OF the
town of NIarianao Two camps will be
pitched at this point, one Oh either side
of the splendid aqueduct which supplies
Havana with water. This aqueduct will
lie tapped and the water drawn by steam
pumps from it to supply the camps,
which will be pitched in a pls teau about
$50 feet above sea level.
At the nearest point to the camp on the
sea beach a dock is being constructed.
The troops will be landed at this point
and marched directly to the camp, the
purpose being to avoid exposure to posi-
ole infection in Havana.

STILL IN FEAR OF AGUINALDO
HE MAY YET MAKE TROUBLE.
Says THAT the Rebels Control
Iu1on. and That More Troops May
BE Required to settle Matters in
the Philippines.

New York, Nov. s.-A dispatch to the
Herald from Washington says.
Major Simpson. of General Meritt's
staff. has just returned from Manila, and
though personally he does hot seem to
fear serious trouble with the force of
Aguinaldo he says there is distinct sent-
mcnt among the United States troops
that there may he trouble and more
troops may Ice needed.
Agunaldo's force i reckoned at about
1000 and Major Simpson freely admits
that the rebels are in control ot the island
OF Luzon. The recent attacl, ON llo llo hv
the forces of Aguinaldo recalled to him
that Aguinaldo had some transports and
about 800 of the Luzon troops had been
carried to the island of Panay.
On the island of Mindanao the situation
/ is not understood as the inhabitants are
! mostly Alohammedans. Little or no in
I vestigation OF the situation there has
been made by our army. Back in the
hills of Luzon many tribes are almost
uncivilized and have never felt the force
of either the insurgents or Spaniards
To cOmplicate the situation the priests
are now intriguing to make the rebels
dscoutented with Agunaldo and to set
up another insurgent chief. Should all
the islands pass into the hands of the
United States. the situation might be on,
of surprises.
The fact that Aguinaldo's troops at
tackled llo lilo. according TO Major Simp
son, shows that Aguinaldo has not ae
quiesced in the decision involved in tn
fall OF Manila.

The prisoners effected their escape by
cutting the arc and incandcscent electric
light wires and with their aid scaled the
walls and disappeared under cover OF
darkness. They were tracked by blood
hounds about mile north of the city to
the slaughter house of the Walla Walla

OHIOANS FOR SANTIAGO.
retson's Men, Leave Camp A1ger
For the Front.

WASHINGTON, July 6.-The Second
brigade, first division of the Second
army corps, broke camp at Camp Alger
yesterday afternoon and started on their
journey to Santiago to reinforce Gen.
eral Skaters army. The Second bri-
gade is composed of the Eighth Ohio,
Sixth Illinois and Sixth Massachusetts,,
General Garretson commanding.
The Ohio regiment goes to New
York, where it will embark on the ST..
Paul, while the Illinois troops go to
Charleston, S. c., and, with the Massa-
chusetts men, will be transported upon
the Harvard and Yale. All superfous
baggage was left behind and everything
that could be spared was discarded, it
being the desire to move the regiments
with all possible haste.
Only six horses were allowed to a
regiment, all other animals belon ging
to the brigade being retained here,
whence they will be shipped as soon as
possible to Tampa under charge of q
commissioned officer, and from there
they will be sent later to Santiago. The
brigade is in fine condition and the men
left enthusiastic and eager to reach the
seat of war before the end of the Santi-
ago campaign. 1t is expected to have
the troops OFT Santiago Sunday.

one OF General Skaters dispatches
stated that these representatives lad
joined in a request to him to put off the
sheIling of the city for another brief
period, until their respective colonies
could be moved. This accounts for the
departure OF the foreign warships from
Santiago harDor, as they are bearing
away the foreign residents in the period
before the bombardment begins.
General Pando's reinforcements
makes the Spanish forces defending the
city from $1,000 to $4,000. The very
great advantage of being intrenched
adds materially to their strength and,
in the opinion of military men, makes
their effective fighting force from a
third to half greater than our own.
General Shafter in his dispatches
states that the excessive heat and rains
of the last two weeks have contributed
nearly as much as the Spanish bullets
to the inefectiveness of our army. I'm
der these circumstances it is his opln-
ion that it would be unwise to attempt
to carry the city by assault This view
is shared by the officials here, and also,
it is understood, by Admiral Sampson,
in command of the fleet.

July 4, per the Dispatchboat G 7nthia

Conferences with tie ga of the
foreign powers have i eh conducted
near General Wheelers headquarters
The consuls said there were 81, 600 men,
women and children, foreign subjects,
in the city, and they requested cessa-
ton of hostilities in order to enable
them to be removed outside Santiago
and to be placed ander the protection of
the United States. This was definitely
refused by the American commander,
who declined to accept any such re-
sponsibility.
The consuls were told that it rested
with them to insist upon General Lin
ares surrender. This conference was
resumed at 8 o'clock this morning,
when the consuls expressed grave
doubts as to General Linares' surrender,
on account of the false kilograms in re-
gard to Spanish victories and yellow
fever among the American troops sent
daily to Madrid, which caused the Span
iards to think they dare not surrender
and return to Spain.
