WATER SUPPLY CUT OFF.
Santiagans Reported to be Without
Anything to- Drink.

SIBONEY province of Santiago de
Cuba, June %, via Kingston, Jamaica,
June %, 1920 a. m.-tCopyright, 1898,
by the Associated Press.)--It is reported
here tonight on apparently good au
thority that the water supply of Santi-
ago has been cut off. II this proves
true the city is at our mercy.
General Wheeler to-day forwarded his
official report of the encounter between
the Spaniards and Colonel Young's and
Colonel Woods command. The officers
are highly complimented for their dash
and courage.
The General says there is absolutely
no warrant for the statement that our
troops were ambuscaded. He says the
attack was deliberately planned, from
knowledge in his possession the night
before.

where the last farewells were waved to
the departing military gathered on the
deck of the steamer.
The Newport will make every effort
to overtake the third fleet os trans
ports, which sailed on Monday, before
it reaches Honolulu, where the vessels
will coal and take on fresh supplies
before proceeding TO Manila. General
Merritt is very anxious tc avoid IN en-
counter with any vessel of the Spanish
navy, and will issue orders TO The fleet
at Honolulu to make ii. possible speed
to the islands. 1t IS p-oS2b,c thA, the
Newport will not wal. fo- tie othcr
vessels of the fleet at Honolulu, but
will proceed with as little delay as
possible to Manila.
An exciting incident happened while
soldiers who had been left behind at
the mail dock rushed up the water front
to the office of the Spreckels Towboat
Company. They were carrying a large
sack of mail and telegraph dispatches
for General Merritt from Washington.
They appealed to Agent Manning at
the tugboat office for tug. The Re
lance was at the wharf, and the SOL
diers and their mail were sent on board.
A telephone message was sent to the
Point Lobos sigma station to flag the
steamed straight out to sea, the Re-
Hyslop ran up his colors the Newport
did not appear to notice them, but
steamer straight out to sea, the Re-
lance about two miles astern, with
clouds of smoke rolling from her
stack, showing that her firemen were
piling coal under the furnaces. The
tug passed over the bar following di-
rectly in the wake of the steamer.
Tbs afternoon it was learned that
about fifteen men in all were left be-
hind by the Newport. About six of
them gathered at Meigg's Wharf and
the Rushs cutter tried to get them
to the steamer, but failed in the task.
The Reliance also returned to the
city this afternoon. having failed in
her attempt to overtake the liner, al
though she crowded on all steam. The
Newport was making exceedingly fast
time. and the Captain of the tugboat
thinks that. If nothing happens to de-
lay her she will arrive at Honolulu
as soon as the transport fleet which
sailed from here on Monday.

doing everything that they can to get

soon as possible. and to keep up the

accuracy is not questioned. There is
still some doubt whether this refusal in
itself will operate to prevent the fur
ther movement of the Spanish squadron
toward the Philippines, as Madrid al.
vices allege a purpose on the part of
the Spanish Government to send addi-
tional Golfers with the expedition to
overcome the refusal of the various
points along the way to the Philippines
to supply coal. There is a strong i'm
preston, however, that the Spanish
Government will avail itself of the pre-
text offered by this refusal to turn the
fleet back to Spain.

When wear begins to exceed repair
in your body you are going to fall
sick. The signs Of it are: loss of flesh,
paleness, nervousness, etc. The repair
needed is food. You think you eat
enough, and yet you feel that YOU wear
out more tissue, energy, nerve force,
than your food makes for you. The
difficulty is that you do not digest
enough. And this is so serious it is
worth sitting down seriously to think
about. If you can't digest what you
eat, take few doses of Shaker Diges-
tive Cordial. The effect of it will be
to increase your flesh and make you
feel stronger. You won: fall sick.
Proof that it is in control of your
repair apparatus. It's easy enough
to test this for yourself Take few
bottles of Shaker Digestive Cordial.
