The health of the troops is excel
lent, except among the Massachusetts
men. They have been packed on the
Yale for about fifteen days and thirty
cases of typhoid fever have developed
among the soldiers. Parker, Of the
9Th Massachusetts,, died on Friday, and
was buried at sea.
Late in the day the Dixie spoke the
dispatch boat Of the Associated Press.
It was then about 8 o'clock at night,
and the commander of the Dixie said
he had been almost around the island
of Porto Rico, and had not seen any
men-of-war or transports, except the
New Orleans, which was blockading
the harbor of San Juan de Porto Rico.
A heavy gale was blowing, causing
the dispatch boat to take nineteen
hours in making the 125 miles to St.
Thomas.
The Associated Press boat is the
only dispatch boat with the fleet.
WASHINGTON, July 27.-The war
department at 11:30 p. NJ, posted the
following:
ST.. THOMAS, July 2e, 1898, 9:35 p.
m.-Secretary Of War, Washington I:
circumstances were such that I
deemed it advisable to take the harbor
of Guanica first, fifteen miles west Of
Ponce, which was successfully accom-
plished between daylight and II o'clock.
Spaniards surprised. The CT Gloucester,
Commander Wainwright, first entered
the harbor; met with slight resistance;
fir d few shots. All transports are
now in the harbor, and infantry and
artillery rapidly going ashore. This
is a we'll protected harbor. Water
sufficiently deep for all transports and
heavy vessels to anchor within three
hundred yards of shore. The Spanish
flag was lowered and the American
flag raised at II o'clock to-day. Capt.
Higginson with his feet has rendered
able and earnest assistance. Troops
in good health and best Of spirits.
No casualties. MILES,

MILES LANDS IN PORTO RICO.

Port Of Guancia, Island Of Porto
Rico, July 25, 2 p. NJ, via the Island
Of St. Thomas July 26-Morning.-
The United States military expedition
under the command Of Major General
Nelson A. Miles. commanding the
army Of the United States, which left
Guantanamo Bay during the evening
Of Thursday last, was landed here
successfully to-day, after skirmish
between detachment of Spanish
troops and crew Of thirty belonging
to the launch of the United States
auxiliary gunboat Gloucester, formerly
Mr.. J. Pierpont Morgan's steam yacht
Corsair.
Four of the Spaniards were killed,
but no Americans were hurt. The
troops were pushed forward promptly
in order to capture the railroad leading
to Ponce, which is only about ten miles
east of this place. From Ponce there
is an excellent military road running
eighty-fve miles north to San Juan.
The whole of Gen. Brookes force,
with the New Orleans, Annapolis,
CINCINNATI, Leyden and Wasp, are
expected here within the next twenty
four hours.
The ships left Guantanamo Bay
suddenly on Thursday evening with
the Massachusetts,, commanded by
Capt. F. j. Higginson, leading.
At noon yesterday General Miles
called consultation announcing that
he was determined not to go by San
Juan Cape, but by the Mona Passage
instead, land here, surprise the Span
iards and deceive the military author
tiles. The course was then changed
and the Dixie was sent to warn Gen.
Brooke at Cape San Juan. Port
Guanica has been fully described by
Lieut.. Whitney, Of Gen. Miles staff,
who recently made an adventurous
tour of Porto Rico.
Ponce, which is situated ten or fif-
teen miles from this port, is to the
eastward, and the harder place to

SPAIN SUES FOX PEACE.
She Proposes no Terms---She Only Asks
Two Questions.
Two Questions.
Special to News and Courier.

will demand that Cuba be turned over
to this Government in trust TOR the
Cubans, to be given over to them
when they are considered capable OF
maintaining stable government; and
will demand the cession of Porto Rico
outright; this to be held by this
Government as permanent posses
sion. These latter points had been
determined. AS to the Philippines,
no determination has been reached.
In the meantime, while these nego-
tiations are pending, there will be no
cessation Of war movements. This
was stated most emphatically by a
member Of the Cabinet tonight.
The peace movement has not pro-
gressed far enough as yet to make any
change in the war plans. The Admin
istration does not propose to let the
Porto Rico or the Philippine expedition
be hung up by Spanish diplomacy.
WASHINGTON, July 27.-The Presi-
dentis writing his reply to the French
ambassador who delivered Spain's re-
quest for peace. By tomorrow our
government will have determined and
communicated what form the steps
leading toward peace shall take. 1t
is likely that if the Spanish govern
ment is really earnest in its desire for
peace our government will consent to
an armistice as preliminary.
But it can be stated positively that
the president is determined to lose no
ground through Spanish diplomacy.
The armistice, if one is granted, will
be conditional upon the most binding
pledges that it is to be followed by q
treaty of peace. Moreover there must
be preliminary agreement that will
provide that the armistice must con-
stitute in itself an undertaking on the
part Of Spain to submit to the con-
ditions imposed by the United States
as a basis Of peace.
The President will not talk Of the
terms but those near him say two
propositions are included in the de-
mands named.
Tie first is the absolute indepen-
dence Of Cuba with provision that
the island shall be absolyed from re-
sponsibility for any debt heretofore
charged against it by Spain. This
last clause, it is expected, will cause
some friction inasmuch as it is certain
to arouse to desperate resistance GER
tain European holders Of bands issued
by Spain based on the revenue Of
Cuba.
The second proposition is the abso-
Lutte cession Of Porto Rico to the
United States, likewise unencumbered
by liability for any bonded indebted
ness.
Another point upon which the
United States will insist is the cession
Of certain coaling stations in the
Ladrones and Carol;nes, probably
Guam Island in the former, and Isap
Island in the latter and one other in a
different quarter Of the world not yet
designated.
Pending the final negotiations Pres
ident Mckinley decided to-day on a
more vigorous policy and ordered a
quick and rigid campaign in Porto
Rico.

splitting fire, the doctor; and the pay

Soon afterward white coated gallop-
ing cavalrymen were seen climbing the
hills to the westward and the foot
soldiers were scurrying along the
fences from the town.
By 9:45, with the exception of
few guerilla shots, the town was won
and the enemy was driven out Of it's
neighborhood.
The Red Cross nurses on the Lam
pasas and detachment of regulars
were the first to land from the trans
ports.
After Lieut.. Huse had captured the
place he deployed his small force into
the suburbs. But he was soon rein
forced by the,regulars, who were fol-
lowed by Company G., of the 9th Illi-
nois, and then by other troops in
quick succession. All the boats Of
the men-of-war and the transports
were used in the work of landing the
troops, each steam launch towing four
or FIVE boats loaded to the rails with
soldiers. Everything progressed in
an orderly manner and according to
the plans of Gen. Miles. The latter
went ashore about noon, after stop
ping to board the Gloucester and thank
Lieut.. Commander Wainwright for his
gallant action.
Gen. Miles said to the correspon-
dent of the Associated Press: "Guan-
lea and Cinga are in the disinfected
portion of the island. Matteo, the
insurgent leader, lives at Yauco, few
miles inland. Had we landed at Cape
San Juan a line Of rife pits might
have stopped our advance
There is no doubt that Gen. Miles
plans are being kept absolutely secret.
The spirit of the troops, men and
officers, is admirable.
The Massachusetts, and Illinois con-
tingents, which have been cooped up
on board the Yale and Rita a fort
night, will be delighted to get ashore,
and all will be well protected by artil-
lery before serious advance is be-
gun.
Guanica is the most lovely spot yet
occupied by our forces. 1t is the seat
Of the coffee and sugar industries and
large herds Of cattle are Jpasturing in
the meadows, which are bordered by
cocoanut palms. Many head of cattle
and large number Of horses have
been driven into the mountains by
their owners. Some Of them will be
recaptured. Ponce is the second city
Of the island, has splendid harbor
and will make good base Of opera
tions.
There were fifteen large coasters
this afternoon at Guanica Bay, but
only two barges were captured.
It is likely that the Spanish garri-
son from Ponce may try to surprise
our people tonight. But it will be
an affair Of outposts.
The town of Ponce is sure to fall
shortly before the combined attack OF
our army and navy. The main fight
ing until San Juan de Porto Rico is
reached will be along the line of a
splendid military road leading from
Ponce to San Juan de Porto Rico.
But every precaution will be taken to
lessen our casualties, even to the use
Of the steel shields, Of which supply
was brought with the expedition.
