In the direction of Santiago.
The last OF the army transports was
unloaded at noon. and three hours lat
er an army of three thousand men
stretched ont to the westward of So

dy, via Kingston, June 26.-The initial
fight of Colonel Woods Rough Riders
and the troopers of the First and Tenth
cavalry will be known in history as
the battle of La Quasina. That 1t did
not end in the complete slaughter of
the Americans was not due to any
miscalculation in the plan of the Span
ish. for as perfect an ambuscade as
was ever formed in the brain of an
Apache Indian was prepared, and
Lieutenant Colonel Roosevelt and his
men walked squarely into it. For an
hour and n half they held their ground
under a perfect storm of bullets from
the front and sides, and then Colonel
Wood at the right and Colonel Roose-
welt at the left, led charge which
turned the tide of battle and sent the
enemy flying over the hills toward
Santiago.

TIES UP MILLIONS.
Fortune Can't Be Divided Until a
Missing Woman is Found.

New York, Oct. 31.-Until Mrs. Clara
Freeburg is found bachelor Henry
Steinveigh's millions cannot be divided
among his heirs. Steinveigh made his
fortune in coal mines. He owned large
estate near Stoneville. Pa.
On a visit to Germany years ago he
took a fancy to and adopted Robert
Stats, a bright boy, u years old. He
brought Robert back with him to Amer
lea and told him that if he did not mar
~ he would inherit all the Steinveigh
estate.
Robert did not marry. Ten years ago
Steinveigh died. Robert, sure enough,
came into the fortune. For five years
he operated the mines. Then he died,
too, and left will dividing his estate
equally among his two brothers and
two sisters. At their death their chill
dren or other nearest kin were to be the
heirs. The brothers and sisters are also
dead.
The heirs now are Dora Male, of No.
1873 West One Hundredth street; Emma
Otte, of No. Sc East Fourth street. Mrs.
Bertha Huber, Miss Clara, Boyer and
Mrs. Clara Freeburg. All Of them have
been located except Mrs. Freeburg. The
necessary papers cannot be filed with
out her signature.
The last heard of her was a year
ago. when she was living in Paterson,
n. J., with her husband, Herman Free
burg an iron merchant. Clara Boyer,
Dora Male and Emma Otte are sisters.
Bertha Huber and Clara Freeburg are
their cousins.
