SANTIAGO DE CUBA, July 10, via
Kingston, Jamaica, July 20. - The
Red Cross society's steamer State Of
Texas, arrived yesterday, and this
morning at daybreak DR.. Elwell, who
was in charge Of unloading, secured
eight stores in the heart OF the city and
one large barn on the docks, engaged
eight stevedores and began to unload
the steamer. She had l,400 tons of
provisions on board. The distribution
began at 4 O'Clock, allowing a pound
and half of rations to each citizen.
When the unloading began
Scores of Half Starved Citizens
rushed to the dock, fighting, trampling
one another under foot, breaking open
the, cases and stealing the supplies.
Finally a picket Of troops was placed
on the wharf, refusing admittance to
any one.
The entire cargo had been landed be-
fore the distribution began. Each ap-
plicant was furnished with q ration
ticket supplied by the local commits
sioners, with General McKibbin's en-.
dorsement.
All the liquor stores, wholesale and
retail, are c4osed under General Shat
ter's order, but the Spanish soldiers
have a large stock Of rum on hand
which they are exchanging for our

MORE GOLD FROM KLONDlKl
Steamer Arrives With Severa
Hundred Miners.
BAD ABOUT sl,500,ooo ON B0AR1
Lucky Ones Reticent Regarding Thei
Possessions to Avoid tho Pay.
mont Of Royalty.

SEATTLE, WASH, July 20. - The
North American Transportation com.
pany's steamer Roanoke, from St.
Michaels, arrived here during the day
with 240 passengers and between
81 900, 900 and 81, 500, 600 worth of gold.
OF this amount the Canadian Bank OF
Com MERGE had $4,000 ounces and the
North American Trading and Trans.
portation company 10000. Probably
so per cent of the returning miners
have fortunes averaging at least $780,.
900 each. The miners are reticent
about the amounts they brought. The
reason for the observation Of such Sc.
crecy lies in desire to avoid the 10
per cent royalty
E1acted by tho Canadian Government.
Not in every case have the miners paid
royal tiles on the, full amounts taken out
of their mines, and many Of them have
smuggled out quantities to avoid it.
Joaquin Miller, tho we'll known poet,
was among the Roanoke's passengers.
He says the amount Of gold brought by
the Roanoke would have been greater
had not those on her felt some appre-
hension of molestation from priva teers.
The North American company will
ship most of their gold on later boats.
Most of the weather. miners will come
out later in the season.

MADRID, July 20.-The papers an.
nounce that the cabinet council was

Captain General Blanco has been

is wang uished. Moreover, they believe
that the United States, exultant over
the success at Santiago, would only be
content with exorbitant terms, and
therefore it is preferable to continue
the war in the hopes of reconquering
some of the lost territory.
