NEWPORT NEWS. va, July 13.-The
transport City Of Washington arrived at
Fort Monroe to-day from Santiago de Cuba.
having on board twenty wounded officers
and two hundred wounded and sick privates
who fought under General Shafter around
Santiago. Most of the men belonged to the
Seventy-first New York, though some of
them are Rough Riders while a few are
from the Ninth Massachusetts and Thirty
third and Thirty-fourth Michigan Regi-
ments. 1t was impossible to get a list Of
the wounded tonight.
Before any of the wounded soldiers were
brought ashore the ship was thoroughly in
spected by quarantine officer The off,
GERS were first carried on filters from the
vessel to the dock in the presence of several
thousand people, but the privates were not
transferred till late in the afternoon Some of
the scenes were heartrending, while others
aroused the widest enthusiasm and cheers
mingled with sobs When a trooper,
negro, who had received nine Mauser bull
let's in his body was brought ashore on a
streteher borne by four white men the ram
parts of Fort Monroe resounded with cheers
sent up by soldiers and citizens. Those SOL
diers who were seriously wounded were talk
en- to the post hospital where they are be-
ing cared for and the others were placed i'm
hospital tents. Is
About fifty men who were wounded in the
hands and arms were permitted to go to
their homes, and they left on steamers
bound for Baltimore and Washington, from
which places they will go to their re-
spective homes. Some of the wounded pre-
sented horrible spectacles with bandages
covering their faces. There were no deaths
on the transport on the trip north. but
colored soldier who had been wounded five
times died In the hospital tonight. Every
comfort has been provided for the men,
and 1t is the opinion of the surgeons that
nearly all of them will recover. The sol
diers are enthusiastic, and many express
the hope OF speedy recovery so that they
may return to the front. Some of the men
brought to the fort to-day are suffering
from the effects of sunstroke and malarial
fever.
The steamer Olivette is expected to arrive
at Fort Monroe tomorrow with more
wounded soldiers on board, and prepara-
tons are being made tonight to receive
them.
The City of Washington was anchored
alongside the battle ship Maine in Havana
harbor when that vessel was blown up, and
it was owing to the fact that a number of
the officers of the Maine were on board of
her that they were saved when the explo-
sion took place.

vealed the position of those American SOL
diers to the Spanish. and the result was
that shower of bullets poured down on
them.
The health of the camp is about the same
as usual. The sick call this morning was
answered by about twenty. There is
number of cases of rheumatism, and dys-
entery is on the decrease. Several cases Of
malaria have been reported.
This morning notice was given that an in
spection of the regiment was to take place.
Early in the morning the sky became
clouded and light shower visited the camp.
The rain kept increasing and from o CLOCK
until the middle of the afternoon it literally
poured down. making il necessary to post
pone the inspection. During the last two
weeks not one day has passed without a
shower. 1t generally comes about o'clock
in the afternoon. The locality of the
old camp is covered with water about a
foot deep and it is very fortunate that the
change was made.
Sherman J. Rossiter. of Elkhart, was
sleeping in his hammock this morning. The
rain did not wake him, and after short
time his canvas hammock contained about
a tub of water. Upon awakening he was
wet from head to foot.

cepting the offer of Mr.. Joseph Chamber
lain, secretary of state for the colonies, to
extend imperial assistance to Dominica on
condition of change in the local constitu-
ton by which the island should become a
crown colony. To this an amendment was
proposed by the anti-crown-colony party,
declaring that the government was trying

rights and liberties and proposing that the
British government be asked to barter
Dominica to the United States or some
other nation. The resolution was adopted.
