NAVYS WORK AT SANTIAGO
1t Was a Good Thing that Thirteen
Inch Shells Were Not Fired.
Dispatch Boat Tarset-SpaniSh Breach Of
Rules Of War-HarVard Free Of
Yellow Fever.

WASHINGTON, July ga bull
letin just issued in regard to the
investigation of the Navy's bonn
bardment of Santiago de Cuba
says:
Twelve houses were complete
| ly wrecked inside and one house
was burned. Sixteen eight-inch
shells struck within three blocks
on the Gale de Marien. These
excavated the ground to depth of
about four feet and about ten feet
in length. The street was maca-
damized. 1t is judged from the fact
that many of them struck the
waters edge that number of
shells must have gone into the
bay. Army officers have stated
that thirty or forty went beyond
the northern edge of the bay into
the Spanish lines.
" A dozen or more OF the shells
had not exploded. In four of them
the base had been simply blown
out. In one case a four-inch shell,
which was probably stray shell
fred during the demonstration at
Aguadores on July l, had gone
through tree and had exploded
in the ground beyond.
"Then the severe effect of the
eight-inch shells is considered, it
is a matter of congratulation that
it was not necessary to continue
the bombardment longer and fire
13-inch shells, as the squadron
had prepared to do. The effect of
these latter would undoubtedly
have been of a most disastrous
character to the town.
"The board has completed its
investigation and will make a de.
tailed report later"

A squad Of Spanish soldiers three
miles west of Bahia Honda, pro-
vince of Pinar del Rio, yesterday
fired half dozen shots at the As

Dandy, which was passing that
point two miles out. Flash and
smoke signals also marked the

9TH ILLINOIS MUTINY.
Men Quit Camp in Large Bodies-one
Smashes His Gun

Chickamauga,- Ga, July 28-The Third
Kentucky, the Fifth Illinois and the
Third battalion of the Sixteenth Penn
sylvania left the park yesterday under
orders to proceed to Porto Rico, but be-
fore the Fifth Illinois had time to load
for its departure, rush order came
from Secretary Alger for it to return to
camp, and ordering out in its stead the
16Oth Indiana. This is the second time
that the Fifth Illinois, commanded by
Colonel Culver, has been ordered back
after being under orders to go with the
brigade to the front. Naturally the
matter has caused a very considerable
unpleasant feeling among the officers
and men of the regiment and they
would like a satisfactory explanation
In fact a sOrrier and more Disguised
lot of soldiers was never seen than the
men of the Fifth Illinois when the or
ders were received to unload and return
to Chickamauga Park. The command
had been extremely anxious to get to
the front.
All kinds of unsavory charges are be-
ing openly made against Colonel Gull
yer, the commanding officer, not only
by privates, but by subordinate officers.
They claim that their regiment has
been betrayed by Colonel Culver, who
represented to President Mckinley that
the regiment is not fit for field duty,
and on these representations, the presi-
dent relieved the command from going
to Porto Rico. The subordinate OthcerS
claim that the command is in very ex-
celIent condition and in splendid fight
ing trim. 1t is openly charged that
Colonel Culver is interested in contracts
to build Illinois monuments here and
that he wants to stay here to personal
ly superintend the work and for this
reason was willing to sacrifice his COM
mand.
As soon as the full situation dawned
on the men, the greatest disorder pre-
vailed and there was no semblance of
discipline. Men left the ranks by dozens
and scores and nearly a hundred MEM
bers of the regiment left camp, most of
them without leave, and came to the
city. The morale of the regiment is
shattered and many of the men declare
they will not longer serve under Gull
yer. Efforts to restrain the men were
unavailing. One man broke his gun
over a tree and left the camp without
leave. Those in the city are making
things very lively.
The 16Oth Indiana men were as elated
as the Illinois men were disguised, for
the order to go to the front was COM
plete surprise to the Hoosiers. The
Third Kentucky regiment loaded at
Rossville and departed for Newport
News.

SENECA CASE SETTLED.
Surgeon General Sternberg Says the
Matter Was Exaggerated.

Washington, July 2S.-Surgeon Cen
eral Sternberg returned to Washington
from New York where he made an in
spection of the hospital ship RELIEF with
most satisfactory results.
While in New York the surgeon gen
eral also visited the Seneca and invest
igated the charges as to the improper
equipment of the ship for the home
ward trip from Santiago. The surgeon
general found that while there was
some ground for the statements, the
conditions had been exaggerated.
The Seneca was OVercroWded with
passengers. Among them were AZ sol
diers from the hospital who were not
wounded so badly as to require their
immediate transfer. They were order
ed away from the hospital at Siboney
because the officers in charge anticipa-
ting another great battle which would
overtax their resources. desired to free
the hospitals from every patient who
could be gotten away.
In addition to this a number of civil
dams not properly entitled TO the privi-
alege, were allowed passage, resulting in
over crowding. The physician in charge
was found to be thoroughly competent
and much of the complaint on the score
of the insufficient medical attention was
aScri bable to the unexpected illness of
one of the physicians.
1t is understood that Gen. Sternberg's
investigation has satisfied the depart
ment and no further inquiry will be
made

HOPE FOR THE ARMY.
It VIII Become Acclimated and Sick
ness Will Disappear.

Washington. July 28.-The report of
Gen. Shafter showing that there were
1870 cases of sickness in the army in
Cuba, has given the officials of the war
department considerable concern, but
the reports heretofore made that the
yellow fever cases were of a mild type,
encourages the hope that the death
rate will be small. The large number of
fever cases reported, 1924, show that
not only yellow fever, but typhoid and
other kinds are numerous.
Surgeon General Sternberg says that
it is the history of yellow fever that it
spreads rapidly and having once got
started in the camp is sure to infect
many soldiers. Speaking of the other
fevers, he said that not only in Cuba,
but in the camps in the United States
there had been many cases and it was
the history of all new armies that fe-
vers, especially typhoid, became quite
common. This was due to the change
of climate and mode of life of the sol
diers. Even where the water was pure
cases would arise. Soldiers bought and
ate many things not furnished by the
commissary, such as milk and other
things peddled about the camps. Often
these foods caused sickness. Another
feature he mentioned was the indiffer-
ent care the men took of themselves
when they Joined the army. 1t was his
belief that as the army became more
seasoned there would be less sickness.

IT IS NO GOOD.
The System of Keeping Out Texas
Fever Doesn't Keep Tt Out.

Glen Fairchild of Kingman came to
Topeka today on private business but
he had few words to say about the
live stock sanitary board and limited
that legal proceedings might be COM
menced soon to test the legality of the
appointment of inspectors.

ern Kansas" said Mr.. Fairchild, land
that is an indication of what the board
is doing and the success of the system
of inspection now in use. saw a cat
tleman a few days ago and he was es-
pecially bitter. He complained because
of the prevalence of Texas fever and
said that what was needed was a board
that would protect the cattle of Kan
sas.
while I believe in the sanitary
board I do not believe in the system of
inspection. There is no provision in the
law to pay the inspectors and they have
to hold up the cattlemen for their pay
and who do you suppose they work for?
They surely do not work for the interest
of the state.

TEXAS POPULISTS SPLIT.
over the Question of Pensions for
Confederate Soldiers.

Austin, Tex, July 2S.-Outside Of Sc
curing permanent organization and
adopting a portion of its platform, the
state Populists convention, which met
here yesterday to nominate a state
ticket, did nothing at all. The split up
come over a proposition to pension all
confederate soldiers instead of bringing
them to the confederate home in this
city.
So far as adopted, the platform de-
clares in opposition to issuance of bonds
by the federal government, either in
time of war or peace, endorses the sent
iment actuating this war, and gives 1t
moral support so long as conducted
along the lines of the Fighting of the
wrongs of a suffering people, but will
not tolerate it's continuance for per-
SOna1 gain.
On state issues they condemn the
Democratic party in unmeasured terms.
and especially complain of the state
railroads and not the people.

Spanish Prisoners Have Not Been

Washington, July 2S.-A step taken by
the postoffce department indicates that
the Spanish prisoners at Annapolis posi-

with their friends in Spain. All letters
deposited at Annapolis by the prisoners
are held by the authorities, an order
of the postmaster general prohibits all
postal communication with Spain.
The letters deposited by the prisoners at
Annapolis were sent to the dead letter Of
flee, but an inquiry to what was to be
done finally with them was referred to the
navy department. The officials of that
department expressed a desire that they
should be submitted in order that they
may be censored and an order has been
issued to the dead letter office directing
that the letters be sent to the bureau of
navigation for that purpose. What fur
Their action will be taken is not yet clear,
and no order looking to the transmission
of letters to Spain has yet been issued.

LET HIM SKIP.
a Supposed Criminal Proves Too
Merry for the Police Force.

Charles D. Wilson, the suspected
criminal who was arrested yesterday
by the police and held at the city Jail,
escaped this morning, and has not been
found. He was fined $25 in police court.
When the prisoners were taken to the
stone pile Wilson was slow in starting.
He walked out of the side door into the
jail yard followed by Jailer Grubbs.
He had no sooner stepped out than he
made a leap for liberty He ran to the
north fence, stepped on a box near to
it and bounded over, clearing the high
board fence easily. The alarm was
given and officers started after the
prisoner. He went straight north and
it is supposed he either crossed the
Rock. Island bridge or went west on
the Rock Island tracks.
It is thought that Wilson is wanted
somewhere for a serious Offense. He
appeared very nervous when kept in
Jail, and was very abusive. Yesterday
afternoon it was necessary to put him
in the bull pen in the basement on ac-
count of his being noisy and abusive
He is the fellow who claimed that ne
was formerly in the employ Of the U. >.
