&C. via Kingston, Jamaica, June 27.-
Gen. Shafter expects to move his head
quarters from Baiquiri to Juragua this
evening. Transports are rapidly land
ing the last supplies of forage and am
munition and the last of the four light
batteries of artillery started this after
noon for Juragua, by road. The ord
nance officers say the road is imprac-
ticabIe for siege guns and that the
landing facilities for them are made
Quate.
About 500 mules are still corralled
here.
The military authorities are rapidly
making up a pack train to take forward
rations. The men ashore have five days
supplies but supplies for ten days are
needed as precaution against a sud
den move.

SANTIAGO'S DOOM.
American Army Within Four
Miles at Noon Yesterday.

Copyright, 1898, by Associated Press.)
Headquarters of General Chaffee two
miles beyond Sevilla, Sunday. June &c,
noon, by Associated Press dispatch
boat, Port Antonio, Jamaica, Monday,
June 27.-The American troops are now
within four miles of Santiago de Cuba.
Two brigades of Brigadier General
Lawton's division, in command of Cen
eral Chaffee and Colonel r. H. Hall,
of the Second Massachusetts volunteers,
last night and today moved forward
past the village of Sevilla, where the
SpaniardS were expected to make a
stand and they occupied hills to the
right and left.
Two miles beyond, far out in front of
the American forces and occupying the
roads leading to Santiago, is a force of
1,500 Cubans under General Carlos
Gonzales.
The entire Cuban army, under direc-
tion of Gen. Calixto Garcia, is march
ing for a cooperative attack on San
tiago. Garcia, with 5000 Cubans, is ex-
pected from the interior before night
fall while from Aserradores, 20 miles
to the west of Santiago, 1000 CubanS
rived today.
There are no Spaniards in the entire
country between BaiQuiri where most
of the American troops were landed
and Santiago. The retreat of the enc
my, after yesterdays battle, apparent
ly became a rout, which did not end
until the Notifications around the city
were reached. The transports Leona
today brought to Juragua from Aser-
radores nearly 1000 insurgents, thor
Oughly armed and plentifully supplied
with ammunition. They are part of the
army of General Garcia, and have been
sent to the front to join the insurgents
already occupying the roads to Santi-
ago.

Kingston, Jamaica, June 27.-General
Calixto Garcia with 1000 Cuban 'insur-
gents from the mountains west of San
tiago de Cuba, was landed here today.
The Cuban troops were brought here
on board the American transports. Full
1y 5000 insurgents, nearly the entire
available fighting force of the insur-
gents in the southern part of Santiago
province, are now concentrated at or
near Juragua. Three-fourths of them
are armed with modern rifles and have
abundant supplies of ammunition. The
soldiers are ragged, almost to naked
ness. Most of these men are thorough J
Iy accustomed to the bushwhacking
methods of the Spaniar1s. and are per-
fect1y familiar with every trail in k1e
vicinity of Santiago. With thee an
ton to protect the American advance
on Santiago detachments will also be
sent toward Guantanamo to give warn
ing in case an attempt is made to form
a junction with Gen. Pando's army in
Santiago.
A conference between Major General
Shafter and Gen. Garcia will be held to-
morrow. The plan of cooperation of
the American and Cuban armies has
been agreed upon not only in the cam
paign in Santiago, but the subsequent
movement on Havana and Matanzas.
Gen. Garcia's plan is to march his en-
tire army overland and along the north
ern coast of Cuba, keeping in touch as
well as he can with the United States
army. AS soon as possible, he will Ell
feet junction with the insurgent for
ces under Gen. Maxine Gomez, who is
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, 600 before Havana, when the
time comes for the investment Of that
city.
Not a shot was fired from the Arneri-
can side last night, though the front OF
the American line was not $500 yards
from the entertainments where the
Spaniards propose to combat the ad-
vance on Santiago. Three cannon shots
were heard during the night. They
seemed to come from the distant Span
ish batteries, or perhaps from seaward.
The top of every hill and mountain
north and east of Santiago is occupied
by block houses, from whence the Span
iards can view the movements of the
American army as it advances beyond

BLANco's ACCOUNT.
Says Americans Were Repulsed With
Heavy and Visible Losses.

London, June 27.-The Madrid corre-
spondent of the Times says:
General Blanco has cabled to Lieu
tenant General Correa, minister of war,
as follows:
" Continuing my account of what
happened Thursday and Friday at San
tiago, General Rubins' column, after
concluding it's operations, was again at
tackled midday and in the afternoon by
the enemy's forces in large numbers,
supported by artillery. The enemy
again advanced to the attack Friday
morning, but were repulSed with num-
erous and visible losses. They were
seen to be acting in concert with in
surgent bands and shouts were heard
of Viva Cuba independence In both
days fighting we lost eight men killed
and three officers and tWenty-four men
wounded. The colonel of the Puerto
rifle battalion, Commandant Andres
AIcaniz and Colonel of Cavalry Do
mingo Berry especially distinguished
themselves. The fact of our not being
able to take the offensive before re-
ceiving reinforcements from Manzanillo
and also of the outer line of defences
at Santiago being weakened, induced
General Linares to retire and TO en-
trench his men. This was effected with
out molestation from the enemy. OPP
posite Baiquiri % vessels and the fleet
of transports remained in sight
Further intelligence is anxiously
awaited.
Regarding the country between Sc
information we possess is that it is diff
f1cult of access. Admiral SIMPSONS
amende honorable has somewhat
caImed the violent indignation produced
by the disgraceful calumny which i'm
puted barbaric conduct to the Spanish
troops. On all sides 1 hear the hope ex-
pressed that the United States govern
ment will take all possible means to
correct the erroneous impression made
by Admiral SIMPSONS first dispatch.
THE agitation which attended the
closing of the cortes is already forgot
ten in the anxiety to events in Cuba.
The air is full of rumors, but I am as
sured by the most competent authors
ties that for the present at least neith-
er Senor Sagasta nor any other minis
ter will resign"
Madrid, June 27.-Further extracts from
the Spanish forces at Santiago de Cuba,
have been published with regard to the
engagements on Thursday and Friday
last. Gen. LinareS cabled:
:. The enemy,s disembarkation continues
after destroying the village, we had to
abandon, owing to the fleet keeping up
an incessant fire on us from their heavy
guns at a distance of 1900 metres. Our
infantry is being intrenched and we are
taking away all war material with u.s."
