Are to Go to Philippines.

Washington, July 2.-Should fifth
expedition be sent to the Philippines, as
now seems almost certain, the Washing
ton troops are slated to 60 The Seventh
Ohio has been ordered to be in readiness
to go to the Pacific coast to occupy the
stations where the Washington troops
now are. 1t is said at the war depart
ment these orders are due to the fact that
representations have been made to Sec
rotary Alger that political capital is being
made by the populists out of the retention
of the Washington troops on the coast.
Newspaper comments showing this were
presented to the president. As result
the chances now seem good for the boys
to have their wishes.

simultaneously with the land attack
the fleet bombarded the Notifications.
Retreat Became "A ROur.
At this time our fleet was also at work.
Shortly before this dispatch was written
our line again moved forward, and the
Spanish began to retreat into the town.
The retreat soon became rout, and at 8
o'clock an officer just from the front says
the enemy are hopelessly bea ten and the
city will fall tomorrow.
General Shafter, at his headquarters at
the second crossing of the Rio Guiana, is
in constant communication with the front.
Our Most Critical Time.
Our most critical time was after the
trenches had been taken, when the am
munition ran low. Two pack trains loaded
with shells were gotten to the front by
Lieutenant Brooks shortly after 3 o'clock
The wounded are streaming in. General
Shafter estimates that the loss in killed
and wounded is not more than 500.
At General Skaters Headquarters, Fri
day, July !, G p. m.-(By the Associated
Press Dispatch oBat Cynthia to Port An
tonic, July 2, s p. M, via Kingston, July
2, II p. m.)--General Skaters army has
had its baptism of fire. With desperate
courage and the mad dash of veterans, it
has conquered the Spanish works before
Santiago and his force is driving the en-
envy into the streets of the city. The vic.
tory was won at a heavy cost in killed
and wounded. 1t is impossible to estimate
the losses at this writing, but it is be-
lieved they approach 500. The proportion
of officers is large.
Heavy Losses on Both Sides.
The Spanish loss must have been heavy.
The Spaniards opposing General Lawton's
division lost in killed, wounded or taken
prisoners 1000 men, and the loss on the
center and left must be double that num-
Der. Most of our troops took possession
during the night, although General aBtes'
reserves did not come up until morning.

To make the evidence complete we pub
fish above fac simile cut of the check re-

due him for total disability. 1t is unneces-

ton did not pay this large amount OF
money to Mr.. Petch, except after the most
careful examination of his condition by
their medical experts. They must have re.

Washington, July 2.-The president
and secretary of war, through private
dispatch from the battlefield, learn that
the engagement was resumed this morn
ing and has continued all day.
The wounded are coming in mpidly and
the indications point to heavy losses. The
dispatch does not indicate a decisive re-
suit in any direction.
| The profoundest concern throughout mil
itary and official circles marked the open
ing of the second day upon which the
battle of Santiago is being fought. The
desperate character of the fighting is now
fully known to the war department. The
information is in addition to the report
made by General Shafter last midnight
when he roughly estimated the casualties
at about 400. Latest reports, direct from
the field, indicate this estimate is far too
low.
Owing to the many conflicting reports
of the losses of the American troops in
yesterdays engagement, it has been
thought best by the war department Off
Gals to make public the text of General
Skaters last dispatch received this morn
ing at 4 o'clock 1t is as follows:
"Sboney, via Playa del Este, July l.
Adjutant General, Washington: l fear !
have underestimate today's casualties.
A large and thoroughly equipped hospital
ship should be sent here at once to care
for the wounded. Chief surgeon says he
has use for 40 more medical officers. Ship
must bring launch and boats for convey
ing wounded. (Signedl SHAF'TER."
Secretary Alger and the adjutant gen
eral held conference as soon as the Sec
rotary arrived. Then Surgeon General
Sternberg was sent for, and joined the
conference. 1t is understood that the sur
geon general will send 40 or 80 medical
officers in addition to those already with
General Skaters men. All suitable appli-
ances will be provided.

The above is the substance of the first
article published by the Monitor. Now fol-
low some clippings, taken from the same
paper two years afterward, and there is not
the slightest shadow of Il doubt, in view of
this testimony. that Mr.. Petchs cure is
permanent Here follows the account:
On being again questioned, Mr.. Petch
said: "You see those hands-the skin is
now natural and elastic. Once they were
hard and without sensation. You could
pierce them with pin and | would not
feel it. and what is true of my hands is true
of the rest of my body. Perhaps you have
observed that I have now even ceased to
use cane, and can get about my business
perfectly well. You may say there is ALSO
tuteiy no doubt as to my cure being permanent.

tors called the disease spinal sclerosis, and
all said he could not live.
For three years he fingered in this condi-
ton Then by some friends he was advised
to take DIR. Williams Pink Pills for Pale Peo-
Pile He took them and there was slight
change. The first thing noted was a tenden-
cy to sweat freely This showed there was
some life left in his helpless body. Next
came little feeling in his limbs. This

until at last blood began to course freely,
naturally and vigorously through his body,
and the helpessness gave way to returning
strength, the ability To walk returned, and
he ,pas restored to has old time health.

The Monitor, newspaper published at
Meaford, Ont. Canada, first discovered
this case two years ago, and published it at
length, which now seems, owing to the
cure of it, to be a miracle. The facts were
SO remarkable that many people doubted
the truth of them. They said: 1T is too
remarkable; it cannot possibly be true;
the paper is mistaken, and the man,
although he may think himself cured, will
soon relapse into his former condition"
ETC., etc. The accuracy of its report called
into question, the Monitor determined to
hnd out dennitely whether the facts were
as stated and whether the man would real
ly stan cured. They accordingly kept
close watch on the case for t'Co years after
the first article appeared, and have just

came through official channels. Briefly
and expressively it told the story of day
of terrific fighting. 1t was direct from the
field of action, as late as 4 p. m. 1t stated
that the engagement had been in progress
throughout the day; that the dead and
wounded were being carried to the rear

No Change of Generals.
During the afternoon a sensational ru-

in the plans for the occupation of Cuba

Mckinley. It can be said upon the highest
authority, however, that nothing of the
kind is in contemplation.
