FIVE CASES HAVE
 RESULTED FATALLY

WASHINGTON, July 14-Reports that have reached the War Depart ment show there has been mortality among the yellow fever cases with Shafter's army. This, however, has been slight, as it is said that up to the present time but five cases have re- suited fatally. If any report of addi- tional cases was received to-day the officials declined to make it public.
 Meanwhile Surgeon General Stern berg is making arrangements to sup plement the working force of immune physicians and nurses at Santiago. He announced to-day that on Monday vessel would leave New York carrying an additional number of this class of workers and a large consignment of hospital surgeons. AS indicated in General Miles telegram to Secretary Alger, the policy of isolating the sick from the well at Santiago will be put into practical operation, and the off, cers hope that by this course the spread of the disease will be retarded and kept within the limits in which it has gained a foothold.
 The sick and wounded who will ar rive in New York in a few days on the transport Seneca will be distributed be- tween New York and Brooklyn hos pitals pending their recovery. One hundred, are to be sent to the marine hospital at New York and the re- mainder to various places in Brooklyn.
 The ambulance ship Solace, operated by the navy, is hourly expected at Fortress Monroe with forty-four sick and wounded from Shafter's army.

SATELLITES THE
 FEVER PROBLEM

NEW YORK, July 1.-The Washing ton correspondent of the Herald tele- graphs: "The surrender of Santiago" said Surgeon General Sternberg to me to-day, makes the yellow fever prob lem there a good deal simpler Up to this time the medical department off, cers, with the troops packed together under orders in the wet trenches, were comparatively helpless to deal most ef- fectively with the pestilence. But LOW that they are out of these trenches we can isolate them in the hospitals on the hills Those who have not suc- cumbed to the fever will have been separated. and they will not be able to be taken away with safety to other places before they have been quaran- tined for at least five days"
 While General Sternberg was deeply sensible of the gravity of the situation he was averse to saying anything that might cause alarm among the relatives of soldiers. The fact is, however, that the number of cases has gone beyond the hundred mark and the conditions of Santiago are much more grievous l am informed on accurate authority, than will be admitted by the Wa. De- partment to the public. They are even worss. than indicated in the dispatch from General Miles this morning, which was with reluctance given out by the War Department. Here is an extract from General Miles dispatch, the first official information of fever among the troops "A portion of the lrmy has been infected with yellow fever and ef- forts will be made to separate those who are infected from those free from it and to keep those who are still cn board ship separated from those on shore. Arrangements will be imme- diately made for carrying out the fur ther instructions of the President and vo1lrself"

across her bow This, too, was dis regarded, the gunboat coming along under full steam.
 For few minutes it looked as if row was possible. The trumpets on the Marblehead rang out a call to quarters and another shot was sent across the Frenchman's bows, this time in uncomfortable proximity. That warning was sufficient. however, and the Frenchman stopped with extreme SuddenneSS.
 It is against naval custom for a war vessel of one nation to enter a port which vessels of another nation are blockading unless permission is granted. The captain of the French gunboat was either in ignorance of the American occupation or chose to dis regard it until forcibly reminded of the fact by Commodore McCalla. The gunboat was allowed to anchor in the lower harbor for the night.

12.OOO to 15,O0O Spanish troops, which will be taken from the city of Santiago, probably to Cadiz.
 A dispatch came from General Shafter tonight, stating that to be the number of prisoners within the city. During the day plan had been drawn up by the authorities, the main feature of which consisted in asking for bids from anywhere, leaving the ships of any nation free to. compete for the transportation of Spanish troops. The authorities desired to. hear further from General Shafter touching the de- tails of the surrender before the text of this call for bids was given to the President. With this end in view, two cable dispatches were sent to him ask ing for these details. Meanwhile noth ing was heard from him except as to the number of troops to be transported.
 A third dispatch was sent to, General

and the Cuban volunteers to-day form the keynote of the governmental atti- tude The former telegraphs that it is impossible for the volunteers of the army in Cuba to accept the proposi- tions of peace suggested. However, the fall of Santiago might change the opinion of the defensive forces in Cuba.
 The Bourse fell to-day on the report of the hard demands made by the United States. which are considered on change as meaning a continuation of the war Senor Gamazo, who is reck- oned next to Sagasta as the strong man of the Cabinet, made>a a statement to-day, in the course of which he said

So man. lower esti- mates have been put upon the number of troops commanded bv General Miles that information as. to the real number, although agreeing with the amount already given h-- the Herald, caused surprise in some quarters, but on the other hand 1t gave assurance that none of Toral's army had escaped, which was gratifying to the President.

WICHITA CITIZENS BAND
Rendered Some Fiue Music Yester
day in Riverside.

The Wichita Citizens band Of twenty
pieces played some exceptional music yes
terday afternoon in Riverside park. There
was a good-sized crowd who enjoyed 1t.
1t has been several years since this city
has had first class brass band. and now
that one is organized with fine artists it
should be given liberOl encOurag cement by
the business men and citizens. Lately 1t
has been customary to send away for
band; in fact, if one was needed some out
side town had to furnish the music When
the difference in expenses are considered
it viii be found that a little outlay now
will in the end be vastly cheaper, besides
knowing that the band will be as fine as
any in the state. Yesterday patriotic airs
prevailed, although the program was a
varied one to suit all tastes.
