HELP FOR GARCIA.
Authorities Admit That Two Expedi-
tions Have Been Landed For
Him In Cnba.

WASHINGTON, July S.-The war de-
partment admitted for the first time
yesterday that two expeditions, one on
the Florida and another on the Fanita,
had suoce ssfaily proceeded from Florida
ports to points in Central and Western
Cuba, .aere large quantities OF arms
and supplies were landed for General
Gomez's command This is the first
time that arms have got to Gomez and
his men i'll the western sections, as the
first expedition equipped Garcia and
his men around Santiago.
The Florida and the Fanita left some
time ago. but their movements were
guarded with the greatest care in order
that premature publication might not
jeopardize the safety of those on board
as well as the delivery of the guns.
The time Of danger is now passed, how
ever, and the full stock of guns, ammu-
milton and supplies is in the hands of
General Gomez's troops.

of Wrong Action by the
Crew.

NEW YORK, July ga telegram was
received at the French line office yes
terday stating that the survivors of La
Bourgogne would arrive in Boston by
boat about Z o'clock Friday morning.
They will probably come on to New
York by mail.
Acting General Manager Paul Faguet
gave out the following list of the lost:
First cabin, IS; second cabin, 113;
steerage, 246; officers and crew, 11S.
Total, $50.
A telegram was received from Hall
fax last night by NJ. Faguet from S.
Cunard q Co., which stated that the
wreckage on board La Bourgogne
proved to be such an obstruction that
the passengers and crew were unable to
reach the starbOard lifeboats.
There was, therefore, a great rush to
the port boats. The crew endeavored
to launch these, but owing to the YES
sells heavy list to port it was impossible
to do SO. The telegram stated that so
far as could be ascertained in Halifax
the officers and crew did their duty
nobly. Most of the sailors who were
saved were picked up in the water and
not taken from the lifeboats. This dis
patch contradicts those which came
from unofficial sources. M. Faguet re-
ceiyed another telegram stating that
lifeboat No. was taken possession of
by some foreigners, presumably sailors,
who were in the steerage. 1t is pre-
sumed that if any violence was shown
toward struggling passengers by any
one it was by these sailors and not by
members of the crew of La Bourgogne
