entertainments completely fencing every
approach to the city. Trenches have
been dug as the conformation Of the
ground admitted. The trenches over
lap where breaks in the line occur, thus
securing a comparatively safe retreat
from rifle fire, in case parts of the
trenches are captured. Upon one OF
these works modern grs& have heen
mounted. They can be seen with the
naked eye. Spies report that inside the
entertainments are four parallel lines of
rifle pits, shoulder deep, and in front Of
them are marked ranges and several
rows of barbed wire fences. The gen
eral opinion is that more artillery will
be necessary before it will be safe to
assault the Spanish works.

Jamaica, June 27.-General Calixto Gar
cia with 5000 Cuban insurgents from
the mountains west of Santiago, landed
here today. The Cuban troops were
brought here Oh board American trans
ports. Fully 5000 insurgents, nearl,
the entire available fighting force of the
insurgents in the southern part of San
tiago province are now concentrated
near Juragua. Three-fourths are armed
with modern rifles and have abundant
of supplies and ammunition. The SOL
diers are ragged, almost to nakedness.
Most of these men are thoroughly ac-
customed to the bushwhacking methods
of the Spaniards and are perfectly
familiar with every trail in the vicinity
of Santiago. In order to protect the
American advance on Santiago, detach-
ments will also be sent toward Guanta-
namo to give warning in case any at
tempt is made to form junction with
General Pando's army in Santiago. A
conference between Major General
Shafter and General Garcia will be
held tomorrow, and plan of CO.
operation by the American and Cuban
armies has been agreed upon, not only
in the campaign in Santiago, but the
subsequent movement on Havana and
Matanzas. General Garcia's plan is to
march his entire army overland and
along the northern coast of Cuba, keep
ing in touch as well as he can with the
United States army. So soon as poss-
bic he will effect junction with the
insurgent forces under General Maxine
Gomez, now west of Havana.
Other bodies of insurgents, it is said,
will also be brought in, it being the plan
OF the Cuban leaders to have at least
20, 900 men before Havana when the
time comes for the Investment of that
city.
