GENERAL Haskell DEAD.
wounded Hero of lei Chney Stricken
After Reviewing His Regiment.

COLUMBUS. o., Sept 17.-Brigadier
General r. Haskell died suddenly at his
home at the Columbus post at about
4:30 yesterday afternoon. He was
stricken with apoplexy, the excitement
through which he had passed during the
day being the immediate cause of the
attack. General Haskell commanded
the Seventeenth infantry at the battle
OF El Caney and was wounded in the
left shoulder and knee. He came home
about month ago and was rapidly re-
covering. The wound in his shoulder,
however, had paralyzed his left arm.
Yesterday morning the Seventeenth reg
iment returned home, and General las
l1ell went TO the depot in a carriage to
welcome his men. He rode at the head
of the regiment through the city to the
post, ana the cheers of the immense
crowds OF people that lined the streets
were directed almost as much to him in
dividually as to the regiment.
At the reviewing stand the crowd sur
rounded the carriage and flowers were
fairly showered into the vehicle from
ever side. Although not as active as
formerly, General Haskell appeared
rugged, and his sudden death was ter
rible shock to his family and friends
At 4:30 yesterday afternoon Captain
Clay called at General Haskells resi-
dence to pay his respects. The general
was resting at the time, but came down
stairs. They had been engaged in con-
versation about five minutes when Gem
ersl Haskell suddenly started to his
feet. clasping his hands to his head and
then fell to the floor The only exclama-
ton he made was, oh OH" Captain
Clay sprang to his assistance and was
surprised to find that his pulse had
ceased to beat. Post Surgeon Pitcher
was called and stated that death was
caused by apoplexy. Mrs Haskell was
/ Frustrated by her husbands death.

WASHINGTON. Sept 17.-Secretary
Long yesterday afternoon issued an or
der reorganizing the north Atlantic
squadron.
The fleet is reduced from a force of
about 100 vessels to 30, the remainder
being detached ready for disposition
in the future.

carries New Jersey men. These will be
honorably mustered out of the naval
service.

in consequence of the reorganization.
Rear Admiral Sampson, though in Ha-
vana on detached duty will sim re-
main I'm command of the squadron,

ton of a programme for the reorganiza-

stations, which will include the revival
of the European station, the rehablita-
ton of the south Atlantic station and
perhaps the creation of a southern Pa
cilc station.

AT SANTIAGO.
Soldiers Have Ample supplies-Lots
of uomcsiclsncAa.

SANTIAGO, Cuba, Sept 17.-Contrary
10 reports that seem TO have been cir
culated IN the United States, represent
ing that the American xOldiers were
dying OF starvation at Santiago-re-
ports that elected an inquiry from the
war department regarding the matter
the troops here have ample supplies OF
every kind, except that in some in
stances the fresh meat supply has been
unsatisfactory.
The fact is that the meat sent here
in refrigerator ships, owing to the de-
lay in unloading, becomes more or less
tainted before II can be used. II Is es-
timated that at least 40 per cent is
quite useless. Less than half the meat
issued to Colonel Hoods regiment has
been fit TO eat, and naturally there has
been some complaint.
Near Santiago are great fields Of pas
turage, and the United States govern
ment would do we'll to send live beeves
here instead Of contract meat. The cost
would be less and the satisfaction far
greater
Aside from the sickness that is Incl
dental TO accllmatization, the trouble
among our soldiers Is chiefly mental
rather than physical, and a better mail
service would do much to remedy It..
Scarcely any mail has reached here.
The men, more or less enervated by
the climate and deprived of communl-
cation with their homes and families,
worry, grow respondent and sicken
from suspense.
To nine out Of every ten sick soldiers
at Santiago a letter from home would
be better than medicine. United States
mail boxes are being put up in the
streets, and the office facilities are am
pie All that is needed is a regular
mail service.
Thursday 80 Cubans who had been
employed about the docks were placed

TO his surprise they went on strike.
absolutely refusing to work at all. OF
course they were discharged. They have
been paid i'm rations, and the opportuni-
ty TO steal at the docks was too at
tractive to be resisted. The products OF
their thieving they would sell to the
small dealers, thus adding to the legiti-
mate results Of labor. Being well fed
seems to render the ordinary Cuban in
disposed to work.

ELECTIONS IN PORTO RICO.
Citizens of Utuado Vote For Police
men and other Municipal Officers.

SAN JUAN, Porto Rico Sept. H.
More depredations are reported to have
occurred i'm the neighborhood OF Utuado.
Several Spanish haciendas and cafetals
have been burned and two Spanish
planters killed. These outrages are at
tributed TO the lower classes of the ma
tives, actuated by a spirit Of revenge,
and a lawless gang OF brigands which
has been operating near GALES. The
Spanish planters fear for their lives
and are extremely anxious that the
Americans should obtain control in or
der to afford them protection, as the
United Statesbis powerless now to pre-
serve order in places within Spanish
lines
Upon petition Of practically all of the
residents Of Utuado General Henry has
displaced the old alcalde and appointed
Senior Ramorao Martinas, who has in
augurated an American regime and has
held an election for all municipal Of
fees, including policemen. Utuado is
the first town in the island to possess
officers chosen by the popular will.
The steamer Juan Forgas arrived
here from Barcelona with provisions
for the Spanish troops, but as there is
supply for two months still here the
steamer proceeded for Havana, where
she will discharge. After the details Of
the evacuation have been arranged the
moyable property and military equip
ment which the Spaniards may proper
ly remove If they desire to do so will
be inventoried separately. The COM
mission may arrange TO purchase such
equipment as it desires to retain. This
will include field guns, possibly certain
movable fixtures in the public build
ings and vast quantity of Cardiff
coal which was shipped here for Ad-
miral Cerveras fleet.
Two hundred and fifty members OF the
Sixth Massachusetts regiment are sick,
and the men are anxious to return to
their homes.
The details Of the evacuation OF the
island were practically completed at a
meeting Of the commission held yester-
day, and all now depends upon when
the Madrid government shall place
transports at the disposal Of Captain
General Macias for the embarkation of
the troops. Failure TO send transports
will embarrass the Spanish commission
ers. but the American commissioners
will probably not set an absolute time
limit for the evacuation without in
structions from Washington.
