Points and Tells Why They Can.
not Be Abolished-.-Next Move To-
ward Porto Rico,

Chickamauga, July 12.-At Camp
Thomas to-day the air was cool and
pleasant.
Gen. Brooke has received countless
letters from ladies of the Womans
Christian Temperance Union in all
parts of the country, urging the clos
ing of canteens, the letters showing
that most exaggerated statements are
afloat in regard to the conditions of
resimental stores The general, find
ing it impossible to reply to these let
tiers, and deeming it of general import
ance and due to the friends Of the SOL
diers her, has mad the following state
ment to the Associated Press.
No intoxicants are sold in the can
teens. Beer is only on sale in limited
quantities, no one being able to obtain
an excess. No soldier is required to
serve as salesman or in any other
capacity in these stores. The articles
sold are mainly cigars, tobacco and
light forms of food. The store is a
regimental affair, managed by the regi-
ment and all profits go to the use of
the soldiers These canteens are by
| army regulations, part of the army. and
Gen. Brooke has no authority to close
them. He has, however, ordered close
sppfgWsiqfs of all of them Careful
observation of the camp since its es-
Enlistment has shown that there has
been no drunkenness originating with
the canteens and very little from any
quarter except as the moonshiners have
made secret sales of whisky.
! The 1000 recruits for the Second and
Third Wisconsin and the Sixteenth Penn
sylvania on their way to Santiago, left
to-day, for Charleston.
The First Ohio cavalry will leave in the
morning, at o'clock for Tampa, enroute
to Santiago. Six trains have been pro-
vided to convey them.
1t is thought at the camp that definite
orders for the departure of nine thousand
men will be received very soon. A letter
from United States Senator Fairbanks
says the entire Second division was to be
ordered to Porto Rico. The letter was
written to Capt Warren Fairbanks son
of the Senator. who is in the commissary
department of the division.
Senator Fairbanks is close to the ad-
ministration, and this information may be
regarded as reliable.
AS an evidence of the healthfulness of
the camp, an official report to Gen
Brooke by the surgeon of the First
corps, shows that there were only 33l sick
in the entire First corps of 81, COO men
This is considered a very small percent

AFTER TIE ARMISTICE.
Description of the First Fighting After the
Flag of Truce Was Taken Down.

Description of the First Fighting After the
Flag of Truce Was Taken Down.
Before Santiago, July II, via Port
Antonio, July II, via Kingston, July
12, 3 p. m.-When the fire opening from
the American lines after the conclusion
Of the armistice, our men were in a
much better position. Caprons and
Illness batteries were posted on the
heights. On the left of the line and in
the range of Bates's line the Hotchkiss,
Calling and dynamite guns occupied a
crest on the right centre and on the
extreme right Bests s1d Grimes's bat
teries were posted in the centre of Law
tons division Our right was strength
ened by a brigade of Kent's division,
the Sixth and Sixteenth regulars and
the Seventy-first New York, which was
pushed to the westward until, with
Garcia's line, it formed an arc, reach
ing within quarter of a mile of Cam
era, which skirts the bay and forts.
The only road by which General
Toral could escape was thus command
ed. Small detached bodies of Span
iards had been observed skipping out
of town westward early in the morn
ing, including one squad of cavalry. A
move was made to cut off their retreat
and a land bombardment began. A
shot from the Grimes battery was
followed by one of Capron's guns on
the left, and in the right center the
Calling and Hotchkiss batteries opened
fire. For the first ten minutes the fir
ing was quite general, the Spaniards
replying spiritedly, but the rife on
both sides soon waned, and from five
o'clock to half-past six, when the &C
ton ceased, the firing was confined
almost exclusively to the artillery.
Our batteries soon got the range and
poured shells into the Spanish en-
: trenchments. The Hotchkiss battery
swept the outer line Of the entrench-
mcnts back and forth, cutting down
the brush shelters like scythe. The
Spanish were soon forced to the block
house.
A Spanish battery on the left Of the
town, engaged by Caprons battery,
fired only few shots, but the battery
on the right fired spiritedly until a
gun cotton shell from Woods dyna-
mite gun exploded directly in front of
it, tearing up two trees and dismount-
ing the gun. 1t was the last shot Of
the afternoon and was greeted with
cheers. Two men IN zen. henl Ill
vision were killed by a shell and sew
eral were wounded, Sergeant Jefferson
and Private ST. CLAIR, Of Troop B, Ninth
cavalry, are among the wounded.
A Spanish deserter came to our lines
this afternoon for food. He said: 'The
Spaniards are as good fighters as the
Americans, and if we had food and
cigarettes in abundance we would fight
forever"
Gen. Kent's recommends the follow
In gofficers of his division for gallantry

at noon to-day every road and trail
leading out of the city was guard
ed and the escape of the Spaniards
seemed impossible. The only way
they can get out of the city is to
ferry across the bay to the west
ern side of the harbor and even
then could not get into the interior
without encountering American
troops. During the time the war
ships were bombarding Santiago
this morning the batteries OF artll-
lery on the hills facing the city
shelled the Spanish entrenchments
and received but feeble response.
The American sharpshooters also
sent in a deadly fire, and the Span
iards fell back to their. last en-
trenchments, offering but little re-
sistance. The Americans suffered
no loss.
About noon to-day Cen. Shat
ter communicated his signal with
Rear Admiral Sampson requesting
the latter to cease firing. Then
the General sent Gen. Wheeler into
the Spanish lines, under a flag of
truce, with message to General
Toral, reciting the fact that the
American ships had given COM
plete demonstration that they could
throw shells into the city and de-
stroy it at will, that the American
troops had the city practically
surrounded, and that there were
$4,000 Spanish and Cuban refugees
starving to death at Ell Caney, and
also pointing out that our army
had no means of feeding them.
Gen. Shafter then demanded the
unconditional surrender of the city,
and coupled this demand with the
statement that unless Gen. Toral
acceded the assault upon the city
both by land and sea forces would
be renewed at once.
Several hours elapsed before any
reply was received from Gen. Toral
and then he sent message to Gen.
Shafter to the effect that the matter
was of such great importance that
he had been obliged to refer it to
the Madrid government and that he
would send his final answer as soon
as he could receive instructions
from Madrid. 1t was late in the
afternoon and Gen. Shafter gave
orders to all the troops to get as
much rest as possible and he pre-
pared to resume the attack at any
moment.
No other answer had been re-
ceived from Gen. Toral up to 6
o'clock this evening. During the
time the negotiations were pend
ing Major Gen. Miles arrived off
Aguadores, on board the Yale from
Charleston. Admiral Sampson
went on board the Yale and held a
conference with Gen. Miles. Then
the latter went to Siboney, landed
for a short while and held a tel
ephone communication with Gen.
Shafter, seven miles away.
Gen. Miles will go to the front to-
morrow morning.

trenchments on each side of the
road. The Americans are now in
position to strike the enemy on the
left flank and roll it up, making
the Spanish entertainments north
Of the city untenable.
Gen. Toral, realizing the weak
ness of his flank, has been busy
during the existence of the truce in
doubling back with entertainments
and fixing his guns in the direction
from which he is threatened. Most
OF Gen. RandOlph's guns will be
located upon the heights in the
center of Gen. Lawton's new posi-
ton, where they command the
town. Yesterday afternoon the
Capron and Hanes batteries on the
right succeeded in tearing up the
emplacements for a palm" bat
terry, as it is called, and in plump
ing shells into several block
houses, but the shots directed at
the Spaniards in the trenches did
not appear to have much effect.
Shrapnel was rapidly broken di-
rectly over the trenches, yet in
five minutes the trenches at every
point of explosion would be alive
with the enemy. They would
watch for the flash of our guns and
drop before the shells exploded.
Our mortar fire was directed at
the Spanish hull ring and tore up
almost everything in the vicinity
1t is understood that the bull ring
is being used as barracks.
Three large steamers lie in the
harbor alongside the Philadelphia
Iron Company's wharf, and a small
Spanish gunboat is anchored at the
head of the bay. All these could
be plainly seen by the Associated
Press correspondent.
The First Illinois volunteers and
the District of Columbia volunteers
are now located in the trenches
that were occupied last week by
Gen. Chaffee's brigade.

WATCHING THE COMMANDMENT


Land Forces Get a Good View of the
Destruction Done by the Battle
ships.
In Camp, Near Santiago de Cuba,
Monday, July II, via Port Antonio and
Kingston, July II, 1920 p. m.-The
land forces watch with interest the
bombardment from the feet.
One shell, of whose action a good
view was had from San Juan hill, burst
in small street. When the atmos-
phere cleared it seemed as if the entire
street had been blown out of existence.
A large hole was torn in the ground
and many buildings were demolished.
If a hundred other shells could be
landed with similar effect they would
destroy Santiago. The war-hips fired
only for a short time. Two ridiculous
gallery plays were made by Spanish Off
GERS last night, which excited much
amusement in the American line. Late in
the evening loud talking was heard from
the first line of the Spanish entrench-
ment. An interpreter was called and soon
came in on a run to report that Spanish
officer was addressing his men, urging
them to stand fast for the honor of
Spain, as the morrow would be the last
day of fighting for the American army
would be wiped out the first thing in the
morning. Faint cheering followed much
less distinct than the officers voice. The
The American sharpshooters ruthlessly
fired in the direction of the Spanish line
and the hero who was going to wipe
out the army of the Americans made a
dive for the trenches, from which no hero
has come yet.
Before the flag of truce came down
yesterday a group of Spanish officers gall
Hoped along the lines in bright uniforms,
carrying Spanish flags and charged near
the end of our line, back and forth, in
front of our flag of truce, to make an
elaborate display. Finally, they dashed
into the town out of danger, and then
down came the white flag.

Before Santiago, via Playa del
Este, Guantanamo Bay, July H.
This morning General Toral sent
out q reply to General Skaters
second demand for the uncondi-
tional surrender of Santiago, made
by the latter yesterday afternoon.
In his reply, Gen. Toral referred
to his refusal to accede to the
American demand made on Sunday,
and again reiterated his determin-
alton to resist.
Notwithstanding this, the Amer
lean batteries did not open fire this
morning, and the renewal of the
bombardment will probably be
postponed until tomorrow WED
nesday), when it is hoped that all
of Gen. Randolph's batteries will
be in position. The siege guns
landed yesterday will also be
brought uD as soon as possible.
Torrents of rain fell last night,
drowning out the boys in the
trenches and making the road al
most impossible. This may delay
the batteries and siege guns. The
volunteers who are being hurried
on to the front are being located
along the right center in the posi-
lions which have been occupied by
Gen. Lawton's division, while the
latter has moved forward, extend
ing our right until it almost touches
