Santiago de Cuba, July 19.-Since
o'clock Sunday morning a stream of
refugees has been pouring into the
city, some naked, all hungry skeletons
aud foot-sore. Many had stopped by
the wayside. The town of Santiago
presents a dismal sight Most of the
houses have been sacked and the
stores have all been looted and moth
ing to eat can be had for love or
money. In the streets of the city, in
the entertainments and at the breast
works and at every few feet of the
barbed wire fence were living skele-
tons of Spanish soldiers. Gen. Pando
was never here, but $500 men from
Manzanillo arrived on July 3, making
the total garrison here 1000. The con-
tact mines in the harbOr were moved
the day Admiral Cervera left, but two
chains of electris mines, one from Es
trella point and the other from Socapa,
are still down. -Four Spanish mer
chant steamers, the Mortrea, the Reina
sde Los Angeles, the TomOs BrOokeS
and the Mexico and the gunbOat Al
varado are now in the harbor. The
market place
Has Been Sacked
by the troops Twenty thousand refu-
gees are quartered at Ell Caney 5000
at FirmeZa and 5000 at Cuabitas ell
B0nito and San Cincente, where they
have been living for a fortnight. In
one case 500 were crowded into one
building, which was a regular pig sty
with a horrible stencil. They used the
water from the river, where sOiled
clothing was washed and all manner
of filth is floating. The Spanish troops
will be camped two miles outside the
city limith under guard until their en-
barkation takes place. The docks are
crowded by incoming refugees in a
starving condition, awaiting the ar
rival in the harbor of the Red Cross
societys steamer State of Texas, as
there are no eatibles to be bought in
the city. The entrance Of the refugees
was quiet and peaceful, they viewing
their wrecked homes philosophically as
the fortune of war. Admiral Samp-
sons last bombardment of Santiago
wrecked fifty-seven houses in the city,
causing heavy damage.

But Negotiations Are Only Possible
So Far as Cwba Is Concerned.
Madrid. July ia member of the
cabinet in an interview said the gov
eminent was seeking an honorable
peace with the United States.
FL impartial says that a member of
the ministry declares that negotiations
for peace with the United States are
Only possible SO far as the question of
Cuba is concerned. To demand more
will be to say that Spain must commit
suicide. The report that Senior Moret,
minister of the colonies in the last pre-
vious cabinet of Senior Sagasta, will be
the representative of Spain in the ne
gotations with the United States is
without foundation.
An official dispatch from Puerto

ton exploded there killing fourteen
persons and wounding many others.

RUMORS OF PEACE
Said That the Spanish Government
Has Made Overtures.

Washington, July 16.-Rumors were
afiOat yesterday afternoon to the effect
that the Spanish government had at
last made overtures in the direction OF
peace, but their basis probably was
the current belief that one more re-
verse to the Spanish arms would be
sufficient to compel the Spanish gov
ernmcnt to sue for peace, and this re-
verse was furnished by the surrender
of Torars army. The navy depart
ment has not been affected by these
rumors to the extent of relaxing any
of its precautions or abandoning any
of its plans, for Secretary Long stated
uneQuivocally that Commodore Wat
sons Eastern squadron would certain
" go to Spain as soon as it could san.

Ready Tor DUTY.
Washington, July ia cablegram
from Playa del Este, Cuba, conveys
the information that Maj. Webb c..
Hayes, of the First Ohio cavalry, son
of the late President Hayes, was
wounded on Friday, July 1, the first
day of the battle of Santiago. At the
request of Maj. Hayes 10 mention of
the matter was made in the official dis
patches. His regiment did not partici-
pate in the engagement, being now UNI
der waiting orders at Tampa Maj.
Hayes was detached from his COM
mand and assigned to temporary duty
on Gen. Young's staff. While acting
in that capacity his horse was killed
under him and he was wounded. That
his wound was not particularly serious
is indicated by the fact that he is out
Of the hospital and again ready for

Annapolis, July 19.-Capt. Eulate, OF

matter will be amicably arranged and
that the scruples Of the gallant officer

It was a task beset with peril and diff

wounds to half a dozen others. Capt.

Nunez, was killed; Winthrop Chanler
of New York, was shot through the
right elbow, and five Cubans suffered

lives answered for these will never be
known, but there were more than
enough to balance the score. The de-
