HEALTH IMPROVING.

Portsmouth. n. H.. July PA far more
comfortable state exists. today. among
the Spanish prisoners, and the general
health Of Camp Long seems to be improv-
ing. During the past "A hours there have
been two deaths, the last being Domingo
Solando Calleja, aged q, i native of San
lander. He was buried at noon with mill
tary honors in the little cemetery, his be-
ing the Goth body buried since one week
ago yesterday, when the first interment
was made.
At the hospital, Medical Inspector Per
sons has 1873 patients. the majority Of
whom are doing well. In the camp there
are about 2j0 sick ones.
The six trained nurses sent from New
York by Hon. Whitelaw Reid are doing
good work among the sick prisoners The
cots ana medical supplies have not yet
arrived.
At Camp Long the strictest rules of
cleanliness are being observed. but it
keeps the officer of the guard and his po-
lice detail busy making the prisoners
clean up the debris. They throw food or
anything out of the windows and about
the camp. and if they had their own way
they wouldn't even wash their dishes
Every day 100 of the prisoners are de-
tailed to clean up the buildings and
grounds, under the supervision of the po-
lice sergeant and a petty officer from
their own number Once a week every
thing in the buildings is taken out and
aired for couple of hours under the sun
and these rules, with the inspection every
day by Col. Forney. render it impossible
for dirt to accumulate.
The first trouble to occur in camp was
yesterday morning, when Il sailor from
the Cristobal Colon refused to do the bid
ding of the officer detailed to take charge
of the cleaning-up squad He threatened
to kill the officer and became SO abusive
that he was turned over 10 the guard.
Col. Forney promptly acted on this case.
and for the next 10 days the man will re-
main in double irons in the guardhouse
just outside the stockade. Many of the
crew of the Colon are conyicts from the
Canary Islands, and they have shown
more disposition to sulk and not obey or
ders than all the rest of the prisoners.

Diogenes before her purchase from a
London shipbulding firm last spring.

the marine battle at Nipe. with the
details Of the capture of that port.

place for the landing of our troops
The vessels steamed in at noon and
found the place well guarded with
three small forts and the Spanish
cruiser Jorge Juan.
our vessels opened fire and the
cruiser was the first to reply. When
the American ships were far in the
harbor, in the narrow channel, the
forts let drive. our sailors poured a
heavy and deadly fire into the Span
iards
y Shell from the Topeka tore a hole
in the Spanish cruiser, and in a few
minutes she sank.
Her crew took to small boats and
landed. The Topeka shelled the woods
through which the fugitives ran. The
men in the forts fought bravely, but
their gunnery was enthusiastically
Spanish, as none of our vessels was
hit.
The Americans drove the Spaniards
from the guns. dismantlcd several fir
ing pieces. and played havoc generally.
At 80 O'Clock the forts hauled down
the Spanish flag in token of surrender.
When the Topeka left the place at
O'Clock the work of preparing q land
ing place was being done, and prepa-
raions We're also being made by our
forces to occupy the place as base
for operations against Porto Rico. No
Americans were killed or injured.

II is calculated that he arrived, this
evening or tonight, at the point on the
coast of Porto Rico selected as the
rendezvous for all the vessels of the
expedition. Whether or not he will
und, rtale to make landing in ad-
vance of the arrival of the whole cxpe-
dition will probably depend entirely
upon conditions as h. finds them.
Should there be no Spanish force, or
at least an unconsidcrahle one on the

of being confined closely on shpboard
