MAY DELAY DISPATCHES.
Serious Interference With Newspaper
Work mt Kingston.

Port Antonio, Jamaica, July 2, via King
ston, Jamaica.-Action has been taken by
the jamaican authorities which will inter-
fere seriously with the work of the Amer
lean newspaper dispatch boats running be-
tween the coast of Cuba. off Santiago de
Cuba, and Port Antonio, the nearest point
from which news in regard to events tran
spring at the seat Of war can be cabled to
the United States.
The quarantine board Of Kingston has
ISSUED order that these boats must not
be entered at or cleared from Port Antonio
without permission of the board, but must
go into quarantine until after investigation.
This will detain the boats here several
hours at least, and in some cases a day or
two and possibly longer.
Clemency to Be Asked.
1t is hoped, however, that the quarantine
officials may be induced to show clemency
in this matter, despite the strict rules ap-
piled this season to ordinary vessels arriv-
ing from Cuban ports; because the dis
patch boats do not enter Cuban ports, as
there are none OF these they can enter now,
and when they are not at Port Antonio thsy
are on the high seas, simply engaged in
carrying dispatches which are transferred
to them by small boats a mile or more off
the Cuban coast, and they have no direct
communication with the shore. They have
been running to Port Antonio daily for six
weeks past as there Is no other means of
getting news to the United States promptly.
The only direct cable communication with
southeastern Cuba is by a line recently es-
tablished by the Americans at Guantana-
mo and Juragua, which runs to the United
States by way Of Hayti; but this line is &C.
cupied almost exclusively in carrying off,
cial dispatches between the army and navy
representatives and Washington, and only
the most meager press kilograms can be
sent over it.
If the Jamaican authorities enforce the
quarantine regulation strictly against
newspaper boats. which are maintained at
great effort and expense. Jamaica will have
to be abandoned as point Of filing dis
patches, and the public of the United States
and other countries will receive greatly
delayed service Of news regarding the prog
ress of the war.

Gen. Corbin's Comment.

Adjutant General Corbin put the situation
strongly and ptcturesquely this morning
whils speaking briefly of the aggressiveness
and tenacity of Gen. Shafter:
THE old bull dog" said he referring thus
half afectionately to the distinguished
commander of the 5th Corps, SIS lying right
there with his teeth in their neck, only
waiting the coming of daylight to finish the
work he has so magnif1cently begun. The
engagement was very heavy for a prelim-
mary fight, but it scores a decided victory
for us. l regret to know that Shafter has
sustained so heavy loss, but We may hope
there ara not, as he says, many killed. 1t
is, however, pretty certain to be true, that
the loss of an army in an engagement like
that of yesterday, where the battle line ex-
tended over several miles, will be much
heavier than is indicated by the first re-
ports. 1t is manifestly impossible in cases
where the battle has ragged all day and
until dark to ascertain with definiteness the
less sustained
During the early night there was much
speculation concerning the reasons for the
delay in receiving news from the battle.
Capt. Nesmith, who is acting as chief sig
nal officer during the temporary absence of
Gen. Greeley. feared that cable communlca-
ton with Cuba might have been interrupt
ed. and none Of the other officials would
offer suggestion as to the reason for the
delay.
Early in tho evening Secretary Alger
went to the White House and remained
with the President until the dispatch from
Gen. Shafter had been received.
During the evening many prominent off,
Gals and members Of Congress were at the
