killed sixteen of them are officers. There
have been treated in the hospitals at Siboney
l ,O52 and there are still nearly 200 In the
hospitals near Santiago.
The Surgeon-Genera has received word
that the hospital ship Relief has arrived off

Port Said, July 9.-Admiral Camara's fleet
has passed through the Suez canal ard ar
rived here on its way back to Cadiz.
Camara informed the Egyptian government
that he had been ordered 10 return to Spain.
Under these circumstances the ships will be
allowed to coal here.
From this port to Cadiz the distance is
1870 miles, at the rate of ten miles an hour,
the fleet will arrive at its destination in
eight days.
Upon the return of Admiral Camara to
Spain it is expected that the government will
attach to his command all the torpedo boats
and small gunboats which were left at home,
in order to prepare for an engagement with
the American fleet that is to cross the
Atlantic under Commodore Watson.

The local Democratic primaries opened at
two o'clock this afternoon. There was con-
siderable pent-up excitement and as the polls
were declared open the voters rushed to
them in droves. The primaries are very
spirited and the battles are evidently on for
blood. The Second ward was the Santiago OF
the town and a split occurred. The primary
was called to be held at Z, j. Mulholland's
house, Mr.. Mulholland is the standing com
mite man OF the ward. On the organization
of the board he proceeded on motion by
voice, while NJ. NJ. Burke, Esq, and Michael
Mellet insisted on having the organization OF
the board made by scratch. Mr.. Mulholland
listened to the voice vote and the Burke
Mellet faction withdrew after protesting aud

THREE SHIPS SAVED.
Admiral Sampson so Informs the Govern
ment After an Inspection.
Special to EVENING HERALD.

Washington, July 9.-Admiral Sampson
wired the navy department this morning
that three of the Spanish cruisers beached
off Santiago may be saved.
This information was received By the oil
Gals of the navy department with much
qualification. From the first reports received
it was thought the Cristobal Colon was the
only one that could be saved.
1t is not improbable that much of the en-
gines of the ships may be found to be of
value, and it is thought the wreck of the
Infanta Maria Teresa can be hoated. The
Vizcaya is understood to be not irreparably
damaged. The Cristobal Colon is believed to
be in good condition, Notwithstanding the
treacherous efforts of the spaniards to render
her useless after she had been surrendered.

KINGS AUNT TO

Madrid, July 9.-It is rumored that the
Infanta Isabel, one of the aunts of the King,
is actively humoring the army. 1t is sup
posed that she is preparing to assume the
regency, Queen Regent Christmas assent
thereto being given for the reason that the
~Infanta, being a Spaniard, could better sign
a treaty of peace than the present Queen
Regent, whose unpopularity because she is a
foreigner continues. Infanta Isabel is very
energetic, and she seems to be in touch with
the Spaniards. Don Carlos, the pretender,
is expected on the scene as soon as peace is
assured.

Efforts to Get Gen. Rivera.
Special to EVENING HERALD.

Special to EvESIS HERALD.
Washington, July ct is probable that
the government will make an offer to ex-
change one of the captured Spanish officers
for Gen. Rus Rivera, who is now a prisoner
at Barcelona. Rivera succeeded to the com
mand of Gen. Maceo in the province of
Pinar del Rio and was captured in 1896. As
he speaks English perfectly and is a Porto
Rican by birth, it is suggested that he would
be of great assistance to this government in
a Porto Rico campaign.

OVER TEN PER CENT GAIN.
The Great Increase in School Attend
anCe i'm This State.

No doubt has been expressed by any,
one that, theoretically, compulsory
education in West Virginia would be
success, but some have expressed
their doubts as to the practical work
ing of law which is not severe
enough in its requirments. The re-
ports which have been received at the
Office of the state Superintendent of
Free Schools and are now being tabu-
lated, throw much light on the prac-
tical side of the question. In 1895
the average daily attendance in all the
public schools in West Virginia was
140, 485; in 1896 it was al ,O8l; in
1897 it was 143, 284, and in 1898 it
was 158, 537, gain over the previous
year Of more than ten per cent. while
the average annual gain before had
been less than one per cent.

Cotton Meal and Cotton Meats.

TO f. r. Lee. Wildwood, AlA.-Iou ask
'if there il any difference in the fertilizin@

Peruvian mill and that that is ground
at an oil mill and the oil extracted We
do not know Just what IS the condition
Of the meal as ground by 'PerFymaI'
mill" i e. whether the hull IL left III the
meal or not. The following will cover
your questions:
one hundred poun.ss Of cotton meal such
as is turned out hy the cotton on mus
is equal IN fertiliziug value to 80 pounds
OF cotton seed either whole or crushed or
ground; ana equal TO 1875 pounds OF the
kernels or meats, with the oil IN them
and without the hu.Is. This is based on
tho actual content OF fcrtliZing properties
or elements Of fcrtHizing value contained
in tha three forms or course the 20
pounds OF meal Is moro convenient to
handle, more concentrated and, therefore.
preferable. to the 80 pounds OF whit" or
crushed or ground seed with the hutlsj'
or the 1856 pounds q meats or kernels
The meats are not quite as good as the
meal when allowed to deoompose IN the
ground" because they will not be as in
tinately mixed with the soil, But the
difference would not amount to much
probably not more than five or ten per
cent.
