not last long, about an hour, after which
they gave 1t up.
IN THE TRENCHES.
Our stay in the trenches lasted from July
to July 20, and 1t was awful; cooking in
tin cup no shelter and lots Of rain, only bacon
and hard tack to eat, no change of clothing:
In fact, nothing but discomfort. Then we
were brought to where we are now guarding
the prisoners. @aThe men have begun to have
malarial fever
We are told the immune regiments are COM
ing to relieve us, but have no idea we can
l have had the fever myself, but am better,
and hope not to have 1t again. The country
mere is beautiful, and don't think the climate
at al bad. The bay OF Santiago is the most
the mountains rising straight up from the
water. The bay itself is like a panorama.
One thing that Is remarkable is that the
Spaniards just fooled our navy about their
defenses. AS matter OF fact, they only had
two guns and two mortars (modern) to de-
fend the whole harbor MORO is an old stone
armament and very little Of that. The water
battery. of which so much was said. was as
dangerous as scene in theateri small
embrasured and castellated work full Of
Weeds And the mines and torpedoes are no
longer mentioned. About an hour after the
surrender tug, followed by all many Of
our transports, steamed into the harbor with
out a pilot even, and no one has said mine
or torpedo since. 1t was clean case of bluff.
The futility of bombardment is now fully
recognized, and If in the future any one talks
about q fleet bombarding New York or Min
neapolis, just tell him to tell his trouble to
the police. The bombardment of poor old
Moro only locsened a few old stones on an
old stone stairs leading to the water. You
know you can put a good many holes in
landmark and it Is still there. But you put
few in ship, and, where is she? lombard
ments are humbugs. They look we'll in
picture papers and please the multitudes, but
they do no harm.

Ion Leaves to Pick Out the New
Camp at Lexington, and Expects

Brig. Gen. Sanger, commanding the
Third division of the First corps, and
STAFF left tonight for Lexington, KY,

mary arrangements for encamping the

1dent when he took his departure that

expected to be able in two or three
days to wire for the troops to proceed
to their new camp ground

for the review Of the army on Wednes-
day of this week, as ordered by Gen.
Breckenridge. The general anticipates
that the review will, in many respects,
be a notable affair ard certainly a fit
ting termination of all demonstrations

In Camp Thomas.
The paymasters resumed paying to-
day and practically completed their
work at this camp after having paid

Fifty years ago the allowance of paint In

he could not obliterate the Objectionable let
