Face to Face Near Santiago.

Wounded Between 30 and so
Spanish Loss Heavier.

OFF JURAGUA, via Kingston, Jamai-
ca, June 27.-Troops of the United
States and Spain are almost face to
face and less than four miles apart.
Tonight the picket lines at certain
points are within hailing distance of
the enemy. ii seems certain that the
battle of Santiago must come within a
week
The troops are all ashore here and at
Baiquiri with the exception of few
scattered companies that have gone
forward. The supplies are sufficient
to enable the army to sustain weeks
campaign at both landing points
There is a continual procession of
small boats riding onto the beach
through the pounding surf and, as one
weeks rations are already landed, it is
believed the required supplies will all
be ashore by Tuesday, the 2sth.
The landing of troops, horses and
supplies has been extraordinary. With
only one steam barge and compelled
to depend on treacherous small boats,
Gen. Shafter had landed over 16,
men, hundreds of horses and mules
and thousands of dollars worth of
supplies on the exposed beaches and
only two men have lost their lives
No more than 80 animals have been
drowned and scarcely package Of
supplies has been lost
The officers generally are surprised
at the small loss Of life and property.
Gen. Shafter said Saturday:
II am we'll satisfied with the prog
ress that is being made. The disem-
barkation is slow, but considering the
limited facilities and the exposed ma
ture of the landing places. the men
have done we'll l only await the
landing of sufficient supplies to
begin the movement on Santiago l
am unable to say when it will take
place. am much pleased at the gal
liant conduct of our men in the action
at Seyilla yesterday and with their
cool and veteran-hke work. The vic
tory was complete.
Gen. Wheeler ia his official report
places the number of dead in the en-
gagement at Sevilla as % and the
wounded as between 70and so. No at
tempt has yet been made to prepare
an official list with the names of the
dead and wounded The high grass
and bushes of the battle ground make
it difficult to find the bodies but an Of

Monday.

CABINET MEETING.
The Administration Satisfied That Ger
many Has No Intention to Interfere
In Our Affairs at Manila.

WASHINGTON, June 25.-The only inn
portant development at Fridays cab
met meeting was the positive settle
ment of the question of the attitude of
Germany with respect to the Philip
pines. The secretary of state has re-
ceived assurances which settles beyond
question all doubts on this point.
Germany has no intention, prese Mt or.
prospective, of interfering in any way
with the policy or plans of the United
States in regard to the occupation of
the islands. Its attitude has been and
will continue to be one of strict neu-
trality
This statement coming from high of
fetal sources is accepted by this gov
eminent in perfect good faith and is
regarded as final and conclusive. No
further attention will be paid by this
government to any reports to the con-
trary, which are constantly being sent
out, tits believed, in the interests of
Spain.

The majority of the American troops
are now here or at the front in the
vicinity of Sevilla. The force at the
latter place, which is about nine miles
from Santiago, numbers 5000
Americans and $500 Cubans Gen.
Wheeler is in command there, with
Gems. Young, Lawton and Chaffee. Gen.
Wheeler will remain at Sevilla, which
will be made rendezvous for the
troops landing at Baiquiri, and at this
point, the artillery and cavalry being
put forward from Baiquiri. The cav
airy have been sent ahead to cut a
wagon road through the underbrush.
From the American position at Sc
villa, Santiago is plainly visible and
the Notifications can be seen. The
following reports to Gen. Shafter from
generals at the front show the condi-
tions:
To Gen. Shafter: II have just seen
two Negro boys who left San tiago this
morning Saturday.. They report that
the soldiers and citizens are very short
of food. The soldiers and officers have
seized all the food in the shops. They
are killing young horses for food and
in the hospitals are subsisting on
bread made of rice -four.

the fight at Sevilla yesterday. Five

into Santiago, and many others wound.
