The Puritan has been here for several

urday. It will not be necessary for the
Terror to come in as she was coaled eev.

the Cuban shore and the coal was lower

There is belief that some Of the ships

Cross supplies. Matangas is generally
regarded as the most likely place for tbia

because Of the distress there among the
