but skirmish, and that our army was feeling the enemy to discover and at tack his weak spot. It was nearly 6 o'clock when the signal officer received the welcome news that the enemy was retreating
 General Miles was of the opinion that the action of to-day was in the nature of a heavy skirmish all along the American front, particularly on the right and that it's main purpose was to develop the strength of the enemy, and, if possible, learn the vulnerable point along the Spanish front.
 This, however, was based only on the lack of definite information, and Gen eral Miles felt that any hour might bring word of a general engagement. l Brigadier General Stone was inclined to believe that after maintaining their stand to-day the Spaniards would re- tire during the night, leaving the city evacuated.
 The military authorities here are fully considering the chances. of such re- treat of the Spanish army from San tiago and are endeaNoring so to shape events that General Shafter's forces will not only take Santiago, but will capture the 12,000 Spaniards before they get away northward to effect a juncture with General Pando. Full in formation as to the possible lines of re- treat has been placed at the disposal of the War Department. *

SKATER CUTS OFF POSSIBLE RETREAT
 OF THE SPANIARDS

NEW YORK, July 1.-The Washing ton correspondent of the Herald tele- graphs Major General Shafter's ob- ject in first making an attack at Caney was for the purpose of getting the troops behind and to the north of the city of Santiago, and thus cutting off the retreat of the Spaniards through the pass of Fl Cristo.'
 This statement was made to me this afternoon by Major General Miles Just behind the city of Santiago, in a north erly direction. is the pass of Fl Cristo.
 In case the Spanish general found it necessary to evacuate the city he would certainly attempt to retreat through this pass. Once his army was en- trenched in this pass it would be an exceedingly difficult task for the United States troops to force him to surrender. Ter miles west of the Bay of Santiago is the pass of Fl Cobre. It is not thought the Spanish army will make any attempt to retreat in that direc- tion as the country is very mountain ous and wild, and 1t would get no ad- vantage in making such move. There is still another pass through the noun tains in northeasterly direction from the city of Santiago. This pass is known by the name of Fl Condella General Lawton has, however, by his move this morning made it impossible for the Spanish to retreat in that di- rection. They are now, in fact, cooped up In the city of Santiago de Cuba.

BIG BALLOON OVER THE BELEAGUERED
 CITY OF SANTIAGO

CHICAGO, July 1.-The balloon that
 Is now in active use and sailing over
 the beleaguered city of Santiago and In
 plain view of 25,000 Spaniards and r ,000
 Americans was shipped from Tampa
 with Shafter's forces together with the submarine cables and other field tele-
 graph equipment now being used by the
 Signal Corps of the regular army in
 Cuba. w. J. Lloyd, assistant district superintendent of the Western Union
 Telegraph Company. says that 1t is
 probably one of the finest and most Improved used in warfare. This balloon
 was shipped from Paris early in May and is being charged with oxygen gas from. tubular: reservoirs which have
 been used by the army for. experimental
 purposes at Fort Riley. The: balloons is first charged and then allowed to as E cend by means of wire cables from: a

 Thes cable. is used asi a telegraph and telephone conductor, and the: occupants j.0f the balloon transmit to the ground Etheir.. Observations There Is little

 The main reliance of the Amer ican war authorities will now be placed upon the four battle-ships --the. Iowa, Indiana, Massachu- setts> and Cregon-w will be ! sent into the harbor, accompa- fliedby torpedo-boats and the dy- ]. .nanlite cruiser Nesuvius.
 Although there were many army officers on duty in the War Department this evening up to I2 o'clock, when the dispatch ar rived from Major General Shaf- ter, Adjutant General Corbin was the only officer of the depart nent. In commenting upon the dispatch General Corbin said:
 Our troops must have acted in the most heroic manner. The dispatch is very. encouraging.
 The worst part of the whole affair is the number of casualties reported-4oo killed or wounded is a very large number for an army of I5,ooo or 10000 men. !"
 I asked General Corbin what he thought would be the next move of General Shafter. He said:
 The general is undoubtedly going to continue the attack the first thing tomorrow. He un- doubtedly means business and will follow up the advantage gained to-day as soon as possi- bIe.
 President Mckinley, Secretary Niger and General Miles, who had all retired before General Shafters. dispatch was received, were. awakened and given copies of the dispatch. They were pleased to learn of the advantage gained by General Shafter but, like General Corbin, regretted tllat.so many men had been killed or wounded. That the American troops were able to force the en- . erly back all along the line is re- garded as an. indication of the great superiority of General Shaf- ters men over those of General IsitlareS. ....

PAINS BATTLE OF MANILA

1.-The Battle of Manila" Pains latest
creation, which is said to be the most
colossal spectacle he has ever attempted
will be seen in this city. This exhibit Is
intended to faithfully reproduce the Bat
tie of Manila as it really occurred, and it
is promised will give a more vivid idea
of naval warfare as it really exists than
can be understood through any other
source. With the advantage Of the large
space of ground in the new ball park and
the resources furnished through means
of an open air exhibit the effects promised
in the production of the battle are sensa-
tonal in the extreme. All the ships of
the American and Spanish fleets will be
seen in full action. and the entire drama
unfolded with impressive exactness.
Another sensational feature, the blow
ing up of the Maine. will also be given,
and numerous other aerial displays. A
grand band concert of national airs will
precede this grand exhibition, beginning
at 7:30 p. m.

HEAVY ICE BILLS.

Among the many expenses borne by
railroad companies the ice bill figures
prominently. For instance. on the Bal
timore & Ohio railroad it is expected it
will take over $4,000 tons of ice this
year to meet the requirements Of the
service. The greater portion is used in
connection with shipment Of perishable
goods. the balance in the passenger
train service. A great deal of this ice
is put up by the company in its own
ice houses, but as the past winter has
been so warm a very large proportion
will tave to be purchased.
