The remains were inferred ia the

The autumn winds were signing
To the leaves on shrub and tree,
And around the cot OF little Joe
stood a weeping family.
They stood beside his dying bed,
All hope il seemed had fed
And ere the heart could beat again,
Our little Joe was dead.
His spirit from this house Of clay
In rapture ,ook its flight
To joiu h Angels mp above,
Where there's no sorrow death or night
Our loss We deeply feel,
The loss of little Toe.
That smile that used TO greet us here
Will greet us here no more.

For God we know is love.
For now at rest is little Joe,

NO CONFIRMATION
 AT WASHINGTON

NEW YORK, July 22.-The Herald's Washington correspondent telegraphs the following: No official confirmation has been received here of the report that General Garcia attacked a body of Spanish troops on their way to sur render to General Shafter under the terms of equalization agreed upon with General Toral.
 Such action on the part of the Cuban commander would be so totally foreign to all usages of civilized warfare that the authorities here are reluctant to believe the report, and should it be con- firmed it would bring about a total change in the relations between the American forces and General Garcia, if not between them and all the Cuban insurgents on the island.
 Even though General Garcia's course should be disavowed by General Gomez and other Cuban leaders, the American commanders would not be able to re- pose confidence in them aga,G
 If General Garcia has taken any such action he has greatly damaged his cause and that of all Cubans in the eyes of the administration and has Justified General Shafter in neglecting to consult him as to the surrender of Santiago.

formed.
 The wounds of the rebels were made by Mauser rifle bullets and are very clean and merciful. Out of a dozen severely wounded men who were brought in while 1 was there none had bones badly shat tered. One captain was shot i'll the left side just above the hip, but he probably will recover. A very young man was struck on the left cheek and the bullet lodged in his head. He also probably will recover, though he walked half mile in the burning sun to camp.
 Arm and body wounds gener- ally do not prevent the victims from walking to the hospitals. In very serious cases the wounded are carried in canvas hammocks attached to bamboo pole which is borne by two men.
 After leaving camp the launch passed along the water front, passing so close to the Spanish
