Santiago. The entire Information to-
day was confined to the one brief dis
patch from Capt. Allen, Of the signal
service, to Gen. Greedy, stating that the
troop transports had arrived. This was
enough, however, to start baseless rum
ors that the actual landing Of the
troops was In progress, and one report
went to the extent Of stating that the
troops were landing under heavy fire
from the Spanish forces. Secretary AL
ger and Gen. Miles disposed Of these
reporta saying that no such informa-
ton was at hand, and Secretary Long
made the same disclaimer from the
navy department. 1t may be true, how
ever, that the landing is now in prog
ress and, although 1t is not impossible,
officials consider 1t improbable that any
landing is going on under q Spanish
fire. The landing itself may take con-
siderably longer than was anticipated,
and officials believe tina: at least three
days more will be required before the
troops are on shore and in any sort of
organized condition. Some Of the army
officers allow even more time, one of
them holding that 1t will take quite a
month to get all the stores, as we'll as
the troops off the transports. The pur-
pose. however, is to get off the troops
first, leaving the stores TO be taken off
later, and the siege train last Of all.

ARMY AND NAVY CONFER.
The result of Rear Admiral Sanp-
sons investigation Of the various pro-
posed landing places was laid before
the army officers, but Gen. Shafter is
not prepared to announce a definite
selection without investigating the
matter himself. Gen. Garcia gave the
Americans assurances that they need
have no fear Of contracting disease on
the southeastern coast Of Cuba, as the
climate there Is not unhealthy, only
extremely hot at this season of the
year. The Cuban general declared that
his own troops, i'll fed and poorly
clothed as they were, were in good
health, and therefore the Americans
need not fear fevers or other serious
ailments.
Gen. Shafter examined the condition
of the Cuban soldiers during his visit
and was impressed with their hardy
and soidierly appearance, though he
recognized the fact that they need
clothes and provisions, both of which
were given them during the day.
The interview closed with the under
standing on the part of both generals
that small bodies Of troops are to be
landed at once at several points along
the coast, where they will be safe from
any serious attack by the Spaniards
and will be able to keep the enemy in
doubt, for the present, as to their ulti-
mate intentions.
Among the troops that will be land
ed there are number Of men from
the engineer corps, who will begin
work at once preparing for the move
ment of the main body. Gems. Shafter
and Garcia will consult further tomor-
row.
1t was nearly dark before the officers
returned to the Seguranca, and then
she steamed back to the flagship and
took up position for the night. Be
fore nightfall all the other transports
and conveying warships had

including the troopships and men Of
war, comprising Rear Admiral Samp-

An American camp, near Cardenas,
was captured recently by six Spanish

In an engagement between Spanish

General Said to Have Been Wounded
by Sentry.
NEW YORK, June 21.--A report from
Washington states that the officials at
Washington have information of an at
tempt to kill Gov. Gen. Blanco at the
palace in Havana. He was shot in the
leg by @ sentry, whose brother had been
executed on suspicion of being in SYM
Eathy with the insurgents. The sentry
is now in Moro castle waiting to be
shot for his crime
The sentry's name is said to be Ma
riana Saliva, a volunteer in the Spanish
army. He Is a Cuban ard he enlisted
with his brother. Both were loyal to
the Spanish cause, but for some reason
the Spanish officials believed the
brother was disloyaI and he was arrest
ed and shot.
The execution Of his brother preyed
upon Saliva and he determined to avenge
him. He was on guard several days
ago and managed to exchange places
with another sentry whose post was in
front Of the palace. There Saliva wait
ed until he saw Blanco coming from
the palace with a party of officers, and
af favorable opportunity he raised his
rife and sent a bullet into Blanco-s leg.
Blanco fell to the ground and the
officers rushed upon Saliva, but a num-
Der of volunteers, friends of Saliva,
rushed to his assistance and warded OFF
their blows. Saliva was arrested and
WEI be executed. Blanco's wound is
slight.
The effect of the incident has been to
create feeling Of sympathy for Saliva
among the volunteers who have recent
~ paraded the streets shouting, Down
with Blaneo! Long live Weyler." Much
concern over the matter is felt at the

The cable runs from Guantanamo to
Santiago, and from there to Cape Hay
tien, where direct cable runs to New
York. The cable belongs to the French
cable company and it will be operated
now under an American censorship.
The steamer Macel was employed In
the work Of restoration, and was COM
manded by Lieut.. Col. James Allen, Of
Gen. Miles staff. The first intimation
had of the cable being In working or
der again was when Gen. Greely re-

Gen. Greedy Immediately directed
Lieut.. Col. Allen to communicate with
Admiral Sampson, and it was then
learned at the war department that
Gen. Shafter had arrived at Santiago
and was with Admiral Sampson.
