at the ruins of the store yesterday Mr..
Spiro returned last evening and stated
that. as Mr. Ascheim is in the east,

PEOPLE TAKEN CARE OF.
The people who were burned out are
being taken care of, and no one is
wanting for food or shelter. If it
should be found that any help is
needed, the people of Salt Lake may
be depended upon for their full share
The Park City people, however, are
very independent, and although they
have had offers from Salt Lake, Og-
den. Provo and other cities, they have
declined the offers of assistance and
declare they are amply able to provide
all the help needed themselves.

Park City can scarcely be said TO
have had an awakening yesterday
morning, for the previous night was
one of nervous excitement to the in
habitants. many of whom watched
over the smoldering ruins to prevent
any further spread of the confagration.
The population of the neighboring
towns for miles around poured into the
desolate camp and looked with Devil
derment upon the havoc wrought by
the fire. Kodaks were used quite ex-
tensively, and many excellent views
of the ruins were secured.
Several walls left standing were lev
eled by the use of giant powder.
Mayor J. H. Deming, who was out
in Strawberry on a fishing outing, ar

liable time and favorable weather are
lost by the delay Though it is blister
ing hot, there has been no rain since
the marines landed. The Cuban Of
ficials say, however, that in this noun
famous section of the southern coast
the heavy rain has practically ceased
until the end of July.
The Cubans are extremely active and
q Gordon has been drawn around Santi-
ago de Cuba. General Garcia, with 1000
troops, coming by forced marches from
Banes, is now heading for Santiago.
His troops are within 40 miles of the
city. He left 5000 men at Holguin to
prevent the Spaniards there effecting
a juncture with General Toral at San
tiago. The Spanish troops at Guanta-
namo under General MaSSo, are also
cut off from General Toral and are
badly pinched for food. They wildly
appealed for provisions and reinforce
ments, but the only reply they got was
that both were impossible. General
Masso said his men were even then at
half rations, and the supply was only
sufficient to last during the present
month.
GARCIA ARRIVES.
C,o,,o,.ol Garcia apd bic nerso0al staff
were picked up at General Rabfs camp,
IS miles west of Santiago, and brought
to the flagship this afternoon by the
Vixen There the grizzled and
wounded patriot had long consulta-
ton with Admiral Sampson regarding
the operations for the investment of
Santiago and the cooperation OF the
American and Cuban troops.
General Garcia is very enthusiastic.
He says the Spaniards are starving
and cannot hold out long, and that the
war would end in a few months.
Two regiments of troops Will be
landed at Guantanamo bay, which will
be held as a base until Santiago falls.
There have been no signs of Spanish
troops in the neighborhoood of Camp
McCalla for several days.
THREE HUNDRED KILLED.
1t is estimated that over 800 have
been killed or wounded since the land
ing Fifty-eight bodies were found yes
terday. The Spaniards seem satisfied
that they cannot dislodge the Amer
leans and have withdrawn. The upper
bay is to be occupied Immediately
Lieutenant Delehanty, with an expe-
dition, is nightly at work removing the
mines from the river connecting the
upper and lower bays. When this is
clear the ships will move up the chan
mel and take the town of Caimanera,
whose forts were demolished by the
Texas last Friday.
The auxiliary cruiser st. Louis cut
the Kingston cable last night within

Last night the dynamite cruiser We

terrific uproar followed the second ex-
plosion, and it is thought a magazine
was blown up.

Hongkong, June 2O.-According to adj
vices from Manila, dated June II, it
was reported there that General No
nent, in coming southwark with 5000
mixed troops from Batacan, 80 miles
north of Manila, found the railway line
blocked and was taken by ambush by
the Insurgents. Fierce fighting ensued
and was carried on for three days, dur
ing which General Moment was killed.
The native troops joined the insurgents,
and the Spaniards who were left, about
500, surrendered.
A battalion at Pampanga, of native
militia, supposed to be particularly
loyal, began shooting its officers and
killed five when the insurgents at
tackled Marathon. The Spanish sue
ceeded in disarming and impriSOning a
portion of them, but they escaped when
the Insurgents captured Marathon
At Zepote a whole regiment revolted
at a critical moment. The authorities
still use mixed forces, with the result
that insurgent riflemen are frequently
found to have passed the sentries and
to be creeping under cover and hiring

posed to be hidden away in the caoln OF
an old Chinese placer miner who lives at

His head is a mass of burns and it is

himself with but $50, which he found I'M

Feeling is very high, Notwithstanding
