Critical Condition OF Affairs at Santiago
Ceryera Landing Forces.

Copyright 1895 by The Associated Press
Port au Prince, Hayti, May 2a.-Two
Italians who set out from Santiago de
cuba in small boat on Thursday
May 10. and landed near Mole St.
Nicholas on the 22nd, arrived here, to-
day. bringing information as to the
situation at Santiago. The state Of
affairs there is critical. particlarly 50
because Of the lack Of food. y great
especially the reconcentrados, are dy-
ing Of starvation. The whole popula-
ton is terribly discouraged ana keenly
DESTROYS Of peace.
The arrival of the squadron under
Admiral Cervera without food sup
plies for the city deepened the general
despondency. The squadron has dis
embarked 800 men, artillerymen and
engineers. and landed 10000 Mauser
rifles. a large quantity of ammunition
and four big guns, destined for the
Notifications.
In spite Of the strict silence main
tanned by the officers and crews, the
general opinion was when the Italians
left. that the squadron would set out
for san Juan dc Porto Rico to land
arms and ammunition there.
For several days the rain had been
falling in torrents. and many cases OF
vellow fever had broken out among
the Spanish troops.

WITH THE MAINE TROOPS.

ON BOARD THE TROOP TRAIN,
May 2S.-(SpcciaD.- BY the time the
troops had passed through Bddeford
the boys were beginning to thing Of
settling down for the night. I was
nearly ! O'Clock when the train passed
through this city and here there was
little disappointment. 1t was thought
the train would stop here as it was 50
reported on the train when in Port
land. Before the train reached Eidde-
ford the train stopped for short time
in Old Orchard and here was one of
State after the men mad left Portland
Coffee and sandwiches We're served
men from Co. G. were allowed to leave
the train as a mark of especial favor.
Apparently it was known in Bidde-
ford that the train would not stop in
that city fer there We're Riddeford
people, almost without number on the
platform. In order that some of the
boys might be given chance to say
last good bye to their parents and
friends two companies We're ordered
out of the train and a guard line was
established around the station The
boys in Co. G We're allowed TO leave
the train but could not 50 outside the

himself proud by presenting in his
imitable manner, revolver to Col.

Co. G of Biddeford, was presented
with sword.
After few moments for lunch the
train continued on its way Col. Ken

been any time since the train started
Col. Kendall leaves in Biddeford
wife, Chaplain Estabrook a wife and
two children besides parish which he
has been trying to build up. and Capt
GoWen two young children the re-
mainder of his family, his wife being
dead.
In Old Orchard the scenes were most
pitlful. While it may be that some of
the French people are not friendly to
our nation the fact that the French |
Canadians are is shown by the fact |
that the large number of French |
Canadians who are naturalized, form |
part of Co. G.. The mother of one of |
the men arrived al this station, having |
spent the last cent she had for car
fare. No sooner had the train stopped |
and the guard established than she
her way through the crowd |
and while the crowd looked on drew
her son who had on the regulation
blue to her knee. He was head and
shoulders taller than she but in spite
Of IBIS she drew him to her knee as she
had years before and wept and wished
him fond farewell. Kisses were
fained on his head and when the signal
was given for the men to board the
train she pressed the boy more closely
than ever to her heart while her lips
moved silently.
