The Espresso. another schooner of the

took charge of the Gibara, put the crew
OF six ashore and brought away only the
captain. Miguel Cavela. his wife and child,
ana cook. All the papers aboard both
schoonerS had been destroyed before the

MIAMI CAMP ABANDONED.
Sanitary Conditions Bad and Many
Soldiers Are Ill.


Washington, July 30.-By direction of
the secretary of war, orders have been
issued that Miami, Fla. shall be aban-
doned as one OF the permanent camps
of United States forces and directing
that the troops now there shall be
transferred Immediately to Jackson
vile. On account of the necessarily in
adequate facilities for the proper
sanitation of the camp, it was deemed
desirable to move the troops to some
other point. There are now at Miami
about 1850 volunteers, the division
comprising the First and Second Texas,
the First and Second Alabama and the
First and Second Louisiana.
While there is much sickness among
the troops "A Miami, the reports TO the
war department do not indicate a par
ticularly serious condition Of affairs.
The war authorities say they know
nothing of the reports that health con-
ditions in the camp are not what they
ought to be, but they give assurances
that some of the stories which have
gained circulation about the alleged
awful conditions" existing there are
not warranted by facts. The illness
among the men at Miami is malarial
and typhoid fever. Every possible at
tention is being given these who are
confined in the hospital and they are
getting along as well as reasonably
could be expected.
