fled to leave by 6. O'Clock p. m. and that
any that remained after that time were
hahle to have their stores or provisions
confiscated by the Spanish authorities
Speaking OF the fortiacations on the Cuban
coast Mr.. Fox said:
Il consider them very poor. There Is
something that they call fort at San

for many minutes under a bonaharament.
As for Moro castle Il Is not all taa. Is
claimed for IL. AT one time many wears
ago. II might have been most formidable
fort but II could hardly stand al this
stage OF warfare with the steady fire OF
the American guns.
AS far as the Cuban army is concern
"a, u could hold its own for years I'm the
island. The Insurgents control the entire
Inland country and the Spanish soldiers
can make no Roadway whatever. Around
Santiago there are thousands OF Cuban
soldiers. and they are IN constant com
