rates in Washington and Idaho by the

Yesterday Mr. G. L. Phillips picked
up pocketbook on the streets of our

anything worth mentioning. However
the purse itself may be of value.

TROOPS ARRIVE.


Cristina shows the most complete destruc-
ton. The course of the "Olympia's eight
inch shell is clearly traced by line or
ruin extending from her stern to her waist.
All her woodwork is destroyed. There are
very few large shot holes through her hull,
the principal ones being from a siX-inch
shell am!dship and from some four-inch
shells Charred human remains were seen
in several places. A large heap of remains
near where the ladder stood shows that
rush to escape was made by the engineer
force. All were lost, as the matches to
the engine and fireroom were closed.
The cruiser Castillo was less burned but
was terribly wrecked. There are plain
traces where six big shells tore immense
holes in her wooden hull. When the fire
started the weight of the guns caved the
hull inward. The war ship is now mass
of twisted iron and charred beams, very
bad wreck resembling that of the Maine
in appearance Everything aft was shat
tered. Three large shells entered amidship.
The number of deaths was not so large as
on the Reina Cristina.
The Don Antonio Ulloa did not burn. She
sank quickly, riddled by shells of all sizes.
The greatest havoc was done by the six
inch shells. A number of dead bodies, all
huddled together near the ladder leading
to the superstructure, shows that the men
were killed by shell as they were at

Navarette estimates at about one third of
