 pate in the Fall of Havana.

Santiago. Aug, Z-(11:2o a. m.)- The First regiment of cavalry and the First Volunteer cavalry, the Rough Riders," will sail today on the trans ports Miami and Mattewan.
 4 p. m. The Rough Riders" came to town by rail from their camp at 1 o'clock this afternoon. At the station they fell into line, each company be- ing presented red and white banner bearing the number of the regiment and the company letter. Col. Roosevelt rode at the head of the regi- ment as it marched down the Ala meda, skirting the water front, to the dock where the Miami was moored. All the men looked fit, but worn out. The work of authorization was very easy and was quickly performed. The men are eager to return for the Ha- vana campaign m the fall.

KILLED IN A MINE EXPLOSION
One Workman Dead and Another Tn
 jured in an Accident.

Galena, Kan, Aug 7-Another dis astrous explosion occurred last night in the George McCaullcgn mine, in which James Nichols lost his life and Tom Norville, ground boss Of the mines, was seriously injured.
 Norville is still alive tonight with chances of recovery. His breast and shoulders were blown full of small stones and one eye is out.
 The mine was shut down yesterday to allow the miners to attend the funeral of Sam Kemp, who was in- stantly killed by the explosion of a box of powder left too near a squih shot. This was the same drill hole Kemp had prepared and was being loaded with blasting powder by Nich- ols and Norvi1le when the second ex- plosion occurred by tamping too heav- fly. This carries out the old super |stition among miners that if one fatal or serious accident occurs two more will follow.
 Nichols lived about five minutes and was buried in the Galena cemetery at o'clock this evening. He leaves z wife and five small children.

Mgr. Martinelli Talks of the Conse-

New York, Aug. 7.-The New York Sun publishes the following from it's Boston correspondent:
 The Most Reverend Sebastian Marti- nelli, papal delegate, was in this city for few hours today en route to Bar Harbor. Replying to a question as to whether his jurisdiction as apostolic delegate would be extended to Porto Rico, in case that island was annexed to the United States, he said: q can not extend my lines of jurisdiction without a positive order from Rome Political changes do not infiuen ce Rome in the management of the church, and she is more far seeing in regard to the government of her spir- itual subjects than we"

 WHAT FOOD COSTS
 "The day before left Havana. which was on July 24, the price of bread rose from 25 to 28 cents per pound. I do not know what this bread was made of, but it was as black as thick paint. In the interior of the island, where the misery is not quite so great, there is still poultry and eggs that came to Havana by rail were selling at 35 cents each. It is six weeks since ice has been seen in the capital, the machines being obliged to shut down for the want of coal, which could not be had at any price. The stock of coal at present in the city is held almost absolutely Dy the gas and electric light people The dummy cars that run past the Santa Clara bat tery, from the foot of the Prado, were compelled to cease operations for more than a week at one time because of JulS dDS0uC0 Ol Iu0l. lucy dIt> uOW burning wood.
 "The price of horse flesh was $1 per pound. The price of dog meat I do not know because I never had the courage to ask. There Is not much butter used on the island at any time. but the market value of the same was $4.50 per pound. It was $1 before the war. The home of the Spaniard. or for that matter the Cuban we1f, Ia supposed to be an unusually desolate one unless lard can be secured with which to cook Everything almost h cooked in lard This necessity was naturally among the first to increase lin value Where before the war lard sold for from between 41a to 5 cents the pound, the price now is $7O per hundred pounds.

Suffering on inc ConChaand Santiago
 Caused by Crowded Conditions.

Washington, Aug. 7-The state ment has been given out by the war department concerning the unfortu- nate occurrence on the ships Concha and Seneca, that brought home sick and wounded from Santiago, after a careful investigation:
 At the time they left Santiago the general desire of convaiescents to come home doubtless overcrowded both ships. From the commencing Of the Santiago campaign until within few days the terrible conditions on that coast, where our ships lad lo shelter. and always with high surf, made the la nding of troops, supplies, ammun1- ton, artillery and medical stores very difficult, and there is TO doubt much inconvenience and suffering was 1 thereby caused tha. was unavoidable. The lighters that went with General Shafter's fleet were lost on the way. Two tows of fighters were subse. ouently sent, which were also lost. and it was impossible to get supplies dSuCI0 OACCpL Wlln luC DCNSo, ShS MAI E'~~ an.: those supplied by the navy.
 i Later on a lighter was furnished by the navy, which was the only one there for many days. On account of the great number of sick and wounded, which was in excess of what had been anticipated, there was no doubt much
 ashore except with the boats of the
 ships and those supplied by the navy.
 The captains of the Seneca and IConcIla did not report to General Shaf-
 ter or to Quartermaster Humphrey,
 that they needed water. Had they |done SO, of course it would have been provided Then, also, large number of civilians rushed aboard to get |away, and they occupied many state
 rooms that should have been given
 over to the soldiers.
 There will be no recurrence of such
 conditions hereafter, and no one re
 grets more than the secretary of wal that anything of the kind should have
 happened. The general commanding that army, the surgeon general and , lthe quartermasters and commissary departments have done the best they could. but unforeseen circumstances named above prevented the con veniences being provided that other. , wise would have been furnished. i@'

a meeting yesterday afternoon at the
Office OF Colonel Morris Horkhelmer.
one OF Its members. and decided to
at once begin tho work OF soliciting
funds to defray the reunion expenses.
The committee has been divided
into three sub-commlttees, to each OF
which was assigned section in the
business part OF the city, where Its po-

tons are as follows:
Subcommittee No. /. = From the

The executive committee has not vet
taken up che matter Of the location of
the reunion grounds, but It seems prob
able ut this time that either historic
Camp Carlisle-the bridge park-or the
state fair grounds will be selected in
the near future. The old war time
camp has the advantage Of his
toric associations intimately connected
with the organization whose reunion
is to be held here, and In addition ia
located on the street car lines and easy
of access. These advantages are IN
measure Offset by the buildings on the
fair grounds which would be sub-let to
privilege men and thus become a source
OF considerable revenue. In addition 1t
seems likely that before the reunion
time arrives there will DO street car
Accommodations right at the fair grounds

vorably on the branch street car line

the new line will be in operation before
