prepared at the earliest possible moment
a complete list Of the American soldiers
suffering from yellow fever, as well as
the names of those who have lost their
lives from that disease. This informa-
ton will be telegraphed to the War De-
partment and 1t is expected will serve 60
allay the apprehensions of the relatives
and friends of our soldiers.
1t is believed that the naval contingent
of the Porto Rican expedition, composed
of the ironclads. which are to make the
attack upon the San Juan fortifieatons.
started last night from the base of San
tiago directly for Porto Rico. The Navy
Department, however, declines as yet to
rescind its rule prohibiting the disclosure
OF information relative to the movement
of naval vessels.
Word has come to the Department that
the Spaniards in Porto Rico have succeed
ed in landing from the wreck Of the
steamer Antonio Lopez nearly all OF the
cargo carried by that ship when she was
run ashore and set on fire by one OF the
American cruisers The Lopez was load
ed with supplies. and was about to run
the blockade into San Juan when she was
cornered. It was hoped the fire had de-
stroyed her cargo.
& The State Department has decided that
II is NOT necessary to give formal notice
to the world of the abandonment OF the
blockade at Santiago. The capture of the
town is supposed to be sufficient notice
to everybody concerned.

substituted and we have good water now.
Large tanks have been placed for each
regiment and the water runs through
pipes in the tanks surrounded by ice.
The reports of the regimentaI surgeons

broke away from Michael and followed
his wife. He stabbed her once more as
she was going down stairs. and then he
threw his knife away and returning TO
the bed room, proceeded calmly to wash
the blood from his hands.
He was engaged in that occupation
when Patrolman Thomas Meyer Of the

Mind your own business. You don't

Comptroller Hough and the Street and
