Washington, Aug. .. - Confirmation
was received by Adjutant General Corr
bin last night from Colonel Humphrey,
in charge of the transportation ar
rangements at Santiago, that the Span
ish hospital ship Alicante sailed from
there yesterday with 600 of the Spanish
prisoners for Spain. 1t is supposed that
the Alicante carries a majority of the
sick and wounded of General Torals

first. The war depal ment has no

Springfield, ILL.,, Aug. 9.--Some ex-
citing incidents occurred before the
last train left the station with the
Eighth regiment, and several serious
fights occurred among the departing
troops Company A failed to get it's
pay because the rolls had not been
made out. The men refused to board
the train, but when their captain was
arrested they weakened and joined

about to start. Six shots were fired
after him without effect, but he was
captured later.

has just been obtained from Tampa,

Besides the troops mentioned
there will be a battalion of United

Of the first conveys unloading.
No hint has been given to any ex-
cept officers concerned as to where
this landing will be made. All that
any officer will say is that the point
is one not to be discussed in the
newspapers, and that preliminary
arrangements have already been
made by which a sefe and secure
debarkation eau be effected. An in
fantry brigade will go ashore first
and take up position as an advance
guard to cover the other troops, and
the cavalry and light batteries will
come next, aud finally the rest of
the infantry will march on the sea
pontoon bridge to the shore.
