danger and most of the pain attendant up
on motherhood, and confers on the baby
that lusty hardihood which is joy to a
mothers heart.

NO FIGHTING
IN PROGRESS

Although the dispatches were guard
ed, it was stated definitely that no
lighting was in progress.
Up TO the time OF the report 1t was
also stated that fears that the enemy
might secretly draw Off some of their
forces to the mountains on the north of
Santiago had not been realized, so far
as the last reports disclosed. The city
was still surrounded, IL was said, and
there appears to be no apprehension OIL
the part OF the officers in command that
the enemy would get away.
Much anxiety had been created at the
war department by press report 10
the effect that Brig. Gen. Duffield was
sick in the hospital. The dispatches OF
Gen. Miles and Shafter made no refer
ence whatever 20 Gen. Duflield's being
in the hospital so that the press re-
port was unaccountable.
While the war council was In pro-
gress all the usual centres OF informa-
tion at the war and navy departments
were closed against inquiry.
A number OF public men called and to
them the officials conveyed the general
impression that the military situation
stands substantially unchanged with
no fighting and no surrender. but that
the chief attention for the moment
was being directed TO the health and
hygienic conditions of our troops.

DEADLY FIRE

This joint attack from land and sea
was answered by volleys of fire from the

heads appeared above the rifle pits the
American troops fired at them. From

they were able to send an accurate and
deadly fire into the enemy's trenches.

NO FEVER CASES
ON WARSHIPS

Surgeon Gen. Van Reypen of the
navy distinctly stated during the day
that no reports have come as to any
cases of fever among the naval forces
at or near Santiago. The surgeon gem
eral received word that the naval hos
pital ship Solace sailed yesterday for
Newport News with her load of wound
ed soldiers and sailors, Spaniards as
we'll as Americans. She will reach New
port News in about three days. The
surgeon general also received letter
from DR.. Edgar surgeon with the ma
rine garrison at Guantanamo, giving
the first detailed account of the killing
of Surgeon Gibbs. DIR. Edgar writes
that while the engagement at Guam
tanamo was in progress many bullets
struck the hospital tent. 1t was de-
cided to start for an excavation about
60 feet away. where the hospital work
could proceed under protection from the
surrounding earth. They had gone but
10 feet when DIR. Gibbs dropped with
bullet wound through the left temple.
The ball passed through the brain,
coming out OF the right temple. DR..
Gibbs died half an hour after receiving
the wound.

GEN. WHEELER
GOES INTO CITY

General Wheeler whose health is
somewhat improved, went into Sapt-
ago in the afternoon under white
flag. He had a conference with Cen
eral Toral. and told the SpanHh COM
mander that our forces could utterly
destroy the city. He asked Toral to
surrender on the ground of humanity.
The Spanish general requested TO be
allowed three hours in which to reply.
General Wheeler. in taking his leave,
reminded Toral that GeneralT TShafter
now had demanded the surrender or
the city for the third and last time.
1t was a little after nine o'clock IN
the morning when the New York De-
gan sending shells over the hills at
five minute intervals, using her for
ward and after guns. These shells just
cleared the summit of the hills and
then went crashing into the city. Gem
eral Shafter sent word that the shells
were well placed, and that all were
bursting and doing great execution.
Signal stations had been established
along the shore to Siboney, and from
there the military telegraph completed
the line of communication to General

Plaintiff Claims Mr.. Perry Failed 10
Turn Over Shares.
MASTER TAKING TESTIMONY.
MASTER TAKING TESTIMONY.

The taking of testimony in the equity
proceedings begun many months ago
by Homer M. Daggett Of Attleboro
against Marsden ]. Perry and others Is
still going ON. though Special Master
in-Chancery Millard has taken over
1000 pages of testimony.
Mr.. Daggett's suit is one for specific
performance of contract. and he claims
that he, William II. Haskell, William A.
Walton, William M. Otis. Samuel Otis,
Otis & Hardy and another held ma
jority of the shares of the Interstate
Consolidated Street Railway Company,
that is to say, 2200 shares, and that
Marsden j. Perry was one OF the prin-
cipal officers of the United Traction
and Electric Company, which company
was very desirous of obtaining con-
trolling interest in the Interstate Con-
solidated Street Railway company in
order TO operate IL in connection with
the properties controlled by Ii in Prov
idence and Pawtucket.
Mr.. Perry. he claims, engaged him to
secure for the traction company the
2200 shares, agreeing, II the deal was
completed, to give complainant 500
shares of the traction company's stock.
Mr.. Daggett states in his bill of COM
plaint that he secured the shares OF
traction stock, and when he asked Mr..
Perry TO deliver the shares OF traction
stock agreed upon Mr.. Perry made ex-
cuses from time to time, and finally re-
fused outright TO deliver the stock.
Though the 500 shares are not now
quoted very high. Mr. .Daggett thinks
they will be very valuable some day,
and he asserts they should be trans
ferred to him.
Mr.. Perry in his answer says the In
terstate Consolidated Street Railway
Company's affairs were in bad way
before his company took control of tt,
that the agreement with Mr.. Daggett
was that he was not only to secure the
number of shares named in the Attle-
boro road, but he was to do many other
things which he had failed to do. One
of the things ii is alleged Mr.. Daggett
was 10 do was to secure the control OF
the North Attleboro & Wrentham Street
Railway system. T.. ID. Bassett is coun-
sci for Daggett.

off Santiago.

naval. to unusual activity, and, coupled
with this was an undercurrent OF ap-

ters The advices speedily led TO the
war council at the White House.
Before Secretary Alger went to the
White House he had conference with
Surgeon General Sternberg, who also
had received dispatches from the sur
gical corps near Santiago.
Although no word of any of the dis
patches was given out. those in posi-
tion to speak intelligently of them said
that any anxiety which might exist was
not due to n material change in the
military situation, but rather to the
severe condition surrounding our sol
diers, due to the rainy season ana the
terrific storms of the last few days. TO

SWINBURNE'S CASE.
Hearing on ReQulsition Will Be
Given Tomorrow.
Winter Tells How He Was victimiz.d TO
the Extent OF $500.

A hearing will be given at 10:30
o'clock tomorrow morning at the State
House by Gov. Dyer, assisted by Attor-
ney General Tanner, to William b.
Swinburne of Newport, whose extradi-
tion is demanded by Gov. Hastings of
Pennsylvania on the ground that he is
a fugitive from justice and that he has
been indicted for the crime of larceny
of bailee, the complainant being one
Harry c.. Winter of Philadelphia.
Mr.. Winter was seen by News man
this morning, and he tells very inter-
esting story. He claims that Swim
burne, together with man named A.
II. Morris, conducted what was termed
the New York Brokerage Exchange at
Nos. All and AIS in the Mutual Life In
surance Company's building in Phila-
delphia. They advertised for collector
and Mr. Winter applied for the posi-
ton.
He was informed by Swinburne that
the firm was the agent for the Ameri-
can Cigar Company OF South Water
street, Providence, and that firm in
sisted that the collector employed
should deposit $500 in cash as guar
antee OF faithful performance OF duty.
Mr. Winter says that he thereupon
hustled around among his friends and
succeeded in raising the 5000. and on
June 10. about noontime, he paid the
money to Swinburne, and he shows a
note, signed by both Swinburne and
Morris, which called for the repayment
TO him OF his $500 on demand.
According to Mr.. Winters story,
Swinburne packed his trunk and left
Philadelphia the same evening. having.
Mr.. Winter asserts, also secured from
Morris $500. Swnburne went to New
port, where he was later arrested on
instructions forwarded to that city
from Philadelphia. Mr.. Winter further
states that he saw Swinburne i'm New
port yesterday, and that he was Of
fered by Swinburnes counsel the $500
on condition that further legal proceed
ings be stopped. He declined to accept
the money.
The claim is made in certain quarters
here that Swinburne cannot be returned

dictment hanging over him in this
state. and IL is understood that his
bondsmen will ask to be released from

IL they relate to fever he will not say.
1t is known. however. that the sur
geon general is engaging the services
of immune doctors and nurses for work
in the hospitals. Before the expedition
to Santiago was made up and sailed
from Tampa. DIR. Sternberg had sent a
number of these immune physicians to
Tampa, and they accompanied Gen.
Shafter TO Cuba.
Gen. Sternberg thinks 1t unwise to
discuss questions relating to the health
of the troops, as this may only give
rise to concern, in many cases unwar-
ranted, to their friends at home.
