reached here that Neuvitas, on the
northern coast Of the province Of Puer-

Colonel Rojas himself has the news at
second hand.
The only American ships known to
have been in the vicinity Of Neuvitas
lately are the Prairie and Badger. The
latter captured three Spanish ships
coming out of the Neuvitas har Dor, and
took them to Dry Tortugas. All were
flying Red Cross flags. but when board
ed were found to contain q number OF
Spanish soldiers, only three OF whom
were sick. The Badger is expected
here shortly.
The Nashville reported at Gibara on
Tuesday, when she captured the schoon-
ers Gibara and Espresso. On entering
the harbor, she was met by the ex-
United States consular agent and pres
ident of the railroad line to Holguin.
He told the Americans of the evacua-
ton of Gibara two days before by Gen.
eral Leque and his l, 800 Spanish troops,
who feared concerted attack by Amer
leans and Cubans. They fed to Hol-
gum by rail, and afterwald store up the
tracks General Lequez left in the
Gibara hospital $50 sick and wounded

sisting of 500 cavalry. under Lieuten.

made a triumphant entry into the town.
They we're received with acclamations
by the Cubans, and the town held fes-
tival that day and night. The insurg-

neglected the schooners in the harbor,
and the American ships took possession
of them.
When Ensign Snow left with q
prize crew to bring the Gibara here, il

Six Thousand Soldiers and Prisoners
in Hospitals.
Washington, Aug. 4.-General Shat
ter's health report today states that he
is now caring for 5000 sick people, in-
Guiding Spanish soldiers, many Of
whom were found to be very ill. The
task is formidable one, and the at
tempt to care for all hands probably
explains, in measure, the lack of ade-
quate preparation of the transports en-
ployed in bringing home some of the
wounded and sick. The conditions on
these boats were found to be 80 shoock-
ing as to demand an immediate official
investigation, which was begun today,
and some court-martials may be looked
for in high places, unless it can be
shown clearly that the lack Of prepare
tions was unavoidable.

Used by Ancient Workmen.
A two years. study of Gizeh has con.
vinced Flinders Petrie that the Egyp.
tian stoneworkers of 1000 years age
had a surprising acquaintance with
what had been considered modern tools.
Among the many tools used by the
phyramid builders were both solid and
tubular drills and straight and circular
saws. The drills, like those Of today,
were set with jewels probably corun.
DUN, as the diamond was very scarce),
and even lathe tools had such cutting
edges. So remarkable was the quality
of the tubular drills and the skill of the
workmen that tie cutting marks in
hard granite gave no indication of wear
of the tool while cut of tenth of an
inch was made in the hardest rock al
each revolution, and a hole through
both the hardest and softest material
was bored perfectly smooth and uniform
throughout. Of the material and
method Of making the tools nothing is
known.

All Interest Centers in the Death OF
Prince Bismarck.
Berlin, Aug. a.-The news of Prince
Bismarck's death, which became gen.
orally known only through special edi.
lions of the papers, produced profound
sorrow, as so sudden realization of the
fears of his demise was not expected.
Several papers this morning published
special articles with mourning borders,
expressing, in feeling terms, the ma.
tional sorrow, and dwelling on the brill
liant and immortal services of the
prince to the fatherland, his heroic
greatness and his truly German charac-
ter. Sorrowful sympathy over Prince
Bismarok's death is manifested in
many ways. The news is constantly
discussed in public places, and feel
ing of sadness prevails among all classes
of people. Particulars of the last mo-
ments of the prince and other cicrum-
stances attending his death are eagerly
sought. Many private houses show
flags at half mast. Secretary Of State

Offcial Reply Has Not Reached Wash
ington, But Has Been Sent to Cam
bon-President Unofiicially Advised
of the Conclusion Reached.
London. Aug. 4.-The Madrid corre-
spondent of the Daily Mail says:
The government has accepted the
principal of the American conditions,
but the acceptance will not be made
public until inquiries to Washington
on matters of detail have been answer
ed, thus rounding off the preliminary
basis.
The Madrid correspondent of the
Daily News says:
The governments reply to the Amer
lean peace terms left here Monday even
ing. The government believes that
the nature of the negotiations requires
the greatest secrecy, and that there sue
cess will depend upon the observance OF
the most absolute reserve here. Official
silence. therefore, is complete.
The Rome correspondent OF the Daily
Chronicle says:
Spain. it is asserted here, has accept
ed the American terms, with unimpOrt-
ant reservations, and the peace prelim-
inaries will be signed Saturday.
The Madrid correspondent of the
Standard says:
The governments reply to the Amer
lean terms was forwarded yesterday
evening, through M. Cam bon, and there
is strong prospect that peace will be

Peace Delegation to Be Chosen.
New York, Aug. A special cable
to the Evening Journal from Madrid,
published in late edition of that paper
says:
Spain accepts the principal condi-
tions of peace as set forth by the Amer
lean government, and only the peace
details are needed to cause hostilities
to cease at once. A peace delegation
will be chosen at once to confer with the
representatives of the United States.
The peace conditions set forth by
President Mckinley were discussed al
length today by the cabinet, and at the
conclusion it was given out officially
that the terms of the United States
would be accepted. There are one OF
two amendments to the proposition Of
the United States which Spain will ask
to be made, and if this is done, peace
will be declared at once.
