WASHINGTON, Aug. 6-Late to-day the
first news dispatch came to the War De-
partment from General Miles. 1t follows:
Ponce, Aug. 6. lS9S.-General Brooke re-
ports that Hainss Brigade. the Fourth
Ohio and Third Illinois, captured Guayama
yesterday after a slight skirmish with the
enemy in and about the town. The enemy's
strength was estimated at about 500. 1t has
regulars. The resistance was not strong.
Private John o. Cordner was wounded be-

both legs below the thigh. and T. w. VOL

these wounds is serious. All belong to the

two wounded, so far as known.
plant has reached the War Department
respecting the management of the Porto
Rican campaign, a tribute to General
Miless ability. No word has come of SOL
diers without food or ammunition or Of
sick men without doctors or medicine, nor is
the onward movement of the American
army delayed for lack of artillery, owing
to General NIiles's insistence on keeping his
artillery in the very vanguard and giving
personal attention to the commissary and
quartermaster departments.
A dispatch was received to-day from Gen
eral Gilmore, at Ponce saying the trans
port Massachusetts had been fioated, and
that the extent of her injuries from going
aground were not known, although at most
they were not serious. Another dispatch
from Ponce stated that the transport Pan
anna had arrived with it's extensive equip
ment for dock building, construction, etc.
This construction outfit was originally sent
to Santiago, but getting there after the
surrender it was sent forward to Porto
Rico.

FLOOD OF CLAIMS.
United States VIII Be Asked to Pay
Millions for Damages in Cuba.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 6.-The announce
ment that the United States government
will assume liability for the claims of the
insurgents against the Spanish government
on account of injuries and damages sus-
tanned in the Cuban insurrection has caused
the filing of large number of claims with
the State Department. Very many of these
are not based on events occurring during
the last rebellion, but date back for very
many years, and relate to excess customs
collections, damages sustained through mu-
nicipal maladministration, alleged illegal
confinement and such things On the other
hand, there are now Spanish claims
to the amount of $S,O00,OO0 against
the United States that in the
event of joint claims commission
being authorized would be proper Off
sets to many Americans here. A large num-
Der of these claims are made by Spanish
subjects on account of property destroyed
or appropriated by the Confederate troops
during the civil war, thus having exactly
the same basis as a number of claims filed
by American citizens against the Spanish
government for property seized or destroyed
by the insurgents in Cuba. Another class of
from the abortive efforts of the commits
sioners and special courts created by Con-
gress to settle the Florida claims" 1t is
believed to be probable, however, that in
the adjustment of peace terms our govern
ment will ignore all claims save those pre-
ferred by American citizens for losses Sus-
tanned in Cuba. allowing the others to be ar
ranged for later by joint commission.

NEWPORT NEWS, Va, Aug. 6-Trans-
port No 30. formerly the Holand-America
liner Obdam, arrived here to-day from Old
Point to take supplies and troops to Porto
Rico. The work of loading the ship was
commenced Immediately after she tied up at

fore Monday night or Tuesday morning.
When she leaves she will have on board
Gen. Fred d. Grant, his staff and the Fifth

Grant is the commander. The order making
the change was published tonight The IL
linois troops arrived here yesterday morning
from Chickamauga Park having been at
tached to General Wade's division. 1t was
stated tonight that the change was made
on account of sickness among the Ken
lucky soldiers. Many of them are suffering
with mumps and measles, and the regiment
is not in condition to be moved. However,
the Third will go to Porto Rico at a later
day. The remaining six companies of the
First Kentucky Regiment will embark for
Porto Rico some time next week, as will
also the ne-hundred-and-sixtieth Indiana.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 6.-The Merritt

her under her own steam TO Norfolk The
navy has nothing to do with this voyage.
the wreckers having contracted to deliver
any of the vessels of Cerveras fleet that
might be recovered at Norfolk. 1t is ex-
pected that the battle-scarred Spanish ship
will attract thousands of curious visitors
when she reaches Hampton Roads 1t is
fully expected at the Navy Department that
the Maria Teresa will require very exten-
sive repairs, having suffered not only from
shot, shell and fire, but also from a month S
submersion in the quickly fouling water OF
south Cuba However, the repairs will GER
tainly be made. for the sentimental reason
alone is strong enough TO warrant the ex-
penditure of money enough TO put the ship
into serViceable condition.
