IMMUNRS ARRIVE IN CUBA.
COLONEL RAYS GEORGIANS VOW
4 on DUTY AT SANTIAGO.
Displaced Regiments Which Had Com.
mitted Crimes, from Murder fnd
Rape to Robbery and Arson.
CubanS Troublesome

The following cablegram to tie At
lanta Constitution announces the arriv-
al in Cuba of Colonel 2. III, Ray' regis
ment of lmmunes, to which q dozen or
more Terrell county boys belong:
SANTIAGO DE CUBA, August 1S.-COl-
onel Patrick Henry Rays regiment of
Third United States Volunteers came
to anchor in the harbor this morning
and during the afternoon the work OF
Standardization began.
The first company to form on lind was
that of Captain Yancy Carter. which
he Immediately put in motion for the
place where it passed in review before
General Wood, who warmly comph-
menGed Captain Carter on the appear
ance of his men.
Captain Edward Wilson's company
was not allowed to rest, but vas im~
mediately marched to Siboney, where
its duty will be to protect the citizens
against the rayages of Cuban outlaws.
The whole regiment is in excellent
condition., having suffered DO casual
ty on the trip.
Eight Spanish troops hips are here to
convey 900 troops TO Spain. The
Spanish prisoners are a piUlable look
ing lot OF men, and Their ranks are 'Dc-
ing decimated by disease.
The outrages which have been com
mitted in Santiago by the Second and
Fifth volunteer regiments surpass de-
scription, The two regiments appear
ed to be without control or discipline
and broke ranks shortly after reaching
the city, going through from house to
house, committing robbery, murder,
rape and arson. The frightened Span
lsh and Cuban women fed in terror
before these Infatuated fiends, who ran
them down committing uncomfortable
crimes.
General Wood is highly indignantover
the disgrace which was placed Upon
American arms, Of all the atrodtles
which have been charged to the Span,
lSh troops during their occupation of
the island none could have EXCEEDED
the terrible brutalities which have
been committed by these two regi.
ments.
Colonel Ray says that his men will
show different record, because they
are better men, and they are under
perfect discipline.
