NO YELLOW FEVER.
Cavalry Free From the Disease
Army Is Depressed.

Santiago de Cuba. July 24.-The re-
port published in the United States
that there are 80 cases of yellow fever
vestigation, to be unfounded. Captain
House reports that there is no sick
ness. The Sixth, Ninth and Tenth, and
the First volunteer regiments and six
companies Of the Randolph light artil-
lery are encamped about two miles
northwest OF Ell Caney, at the base of
the mountains. The camp is appar-
emily perfectly healthy as to location
and has a good water supply. The
ground is well drained.
Malarial fever is prevalent, but it al
ways yields to quinine treatment in the
course of four or five days. The fact
that the immunes from the regiment
have had this fever as freely as the
other men shows that the illness is
not yellow jack.
There have been no fatalities from
fever thus far, but so long as the men
are exposed TO the hot sun during the
day, the increasing rains and the heavy
night dews, malaria Will increase and
our men grow worse. A second attack
is much more difficult to eradicate es-
pecially in the case of men exposed to
the present conditions.
The cavalry is anxious to proceed to
Porto Rico, but will be obliged to re-
main here until the Spanish prisoners
of war have been transported to Spain,
which, it is believed. win have been ac-
complished before the next month is
well advanced The army is mentally
depressed by inactivity and the uncer-
tairty as to its future movements, to-
gether with the increasing malarial
fever

1855 men, of whom 3.055 are Spanish
soldiers to be deported. At first they
refused to credit the statement that
Santiago had surrendered. but the
presence of a Spanish officer who ac-
companied Lieutenant Miley finally
convinced them and then they dis
played great delight at the prospect of
returning to Spain.
All the surrendered troops are suf-
fering from disease and starvation and
