Port au Prince, June 3.-According
to the latest advices from Santiago dc
Cuba, when the Spanish cruiser Girls
tobal Colon emerged from the harbor
yesterday to the entrance of the chan.
mel, she was welcomed by such furious
fire, as soon as the American squadron
sighted her, that she was compelled to
return into the bay.
The Spaniards pretend that two cam
nonballs landed on the stern of the
Iowa and must nave caused damage.
They say that the American squadron
engaged in the bombardment was COM
posed Of Ia ships, among which they
recognized the Brooklyn, Iowa, Massa-
chusetts, Texas, New Orleans, and the
protected cruiser Columbia.
The American squadron, which left
Santiago waters at O'Clock Yesterday
afternoon, returned in front of the en-
trance OF the bay this morning, and
fired the cannon shots, which were be.
lieved to have been a signal arranged
with the Cuban troops, massed 5000
strong three miles from the city.
Everybody expects grave events.
A press correspondent at Mole st.
Nicholas telegraphs that the torpedo
boat Porter was in that port last night
at a late hour, but gave DO account OF
the bonn baYdment.

The cable which binds Cuba to Ma.
drid and the outside world was cut to-
day.
Pending the execution OF Admiral
SIMPSONS plan OF campaign, our ships
form a Gordon about the entrance of
Santiago harbor to prevent the posi-
Bile egress of the Spanards.
Communication has also been had
with the shore. The mountains and
hills which surround Santiago are in
full possession OF the Cuban insur-
gents.
The reconnaissance made by our
ships, principally the smaller yachts
and torpedo.boats, which are able to
creep close inshore at night, has pretty
definitely determined the location and
character of the defenses of the harbor.
Several new batteries have been thrown
up on the high ground on each side OF
the entrance, and it is evident the
Spaniards are prepared to make q
strong resistance.

Cape Haytien, June ga Santiago
dispatch says: The American squad
ron, which BON barded Santiago yes
terday, was composed Of IA vessels,
among which were recognized the Iowa,
Brooklyn, Massachusetts,. Texas and
New Orleans, besides gunboat and an
auxiliary cruiser, believed to be the
Columbia.
The five vessels which were recog-
nized opened fire on the batteries at
Punta Gorda, FL Moro and Socapa,
and also on the cruiser Cristobal Colon,
which advanced toward the entrance Of
the harbor. The Americans fired pro.
jectiles Of SO centimeters, and the bat
teries, as we'll as the Cristobal Colon,
kept up an incessant responsive fire.
Two shots landed on the after part of
the Iowa, causing much damage. On
the Spanish side, the damage was insig-
nificant.
The American squadron withdrew at
O'Clock last evening.
This morning the American squadron
reappeared off Santiago, but contented
itself with firing two shots, which are
believed to have been signals agreed
upon with the insurgents, who, num-
bering 1000 or 5000, are said to have
been three or four miles from Santiago.
Great events are expected hourly at
Santiago.
The Spanish authorities have taken
extraordinary precautions, and have
placed in the narrow pass at the
entrance of the harbor special con-
trivance, which permits the closing and
opening of the port at will.

secured today will be sent to Florida

Treatment of Painting,

Painting is perhaps the most common
of the many minor " ills that flesh is heir
to-" and for this reason every person
should have an intelligent idea of what
form OF treatment is necessary to
administer at once under such circum-
stances. Unfortunately, too often an
onlooker or bystander seems to be, for
the moment, perfectly stupefied, con.
sequently the person who has tainted
is left to his or her own fate. Where.
as, if efforts were put forth without
delay and the few simple but efficacious
remedies applied, the patient would
doubtless recover speedily.
Painting may result from various
causes. If such condition should
arise from any immediate trouble, such
as severe bleeding, it should be treated
first, after which consciousness should
be restored as soon as possible. But if
it is by intense heat, oppressive at
mosphere, sudden shock, or absolute
physical exhaustion, the person should
be at once laid fiat upon his back, with
his feet slightly elevated, the head be-
ing the lowest part of the body. This
will greatly aid the flow OF blood to the
brain. Breathing should be assisted
as much as possible by Immediately
loosening the clothing at the neck
chest and waist, and the apartment
should be flooded with fresh air by
throwing open windows and doors
great care being taken to avoid crowd.
ing about the Frustrated person.
The action of the heart may be
stimulated by dashing a little cold
water upon the face, by pouring a
teaspoonful of brandy, whisky or wine
into the mouth, by holding smelling
salts or ammonia close to the nose
and by gently rubbing the arms.
A deep breath will probably be the
first sign that partial recovery has
taken place, which is usually followed
by slight twitching of the face, hands
and eyelids. Perfect rest and quietness
should be insisted on for awhile, dur
ing which the patient should take a
little nourishment of a light nature
such as glass of milk.
