taken by the war department officials
in the reports regarding the large number
of refugees who have fed from Santiago
to avoid the horrors Of war, Many OF
these people non-combatants, have looked
TO General Shafter for assistance, which
may make a severe drain on the commits

Is this SO in view of the great difficulty
experienced by the general in getting his
supplies from the transports. If the city
of Santiago holds out for long time
and Shafter has the non-combatants to
feed, the question of their sustenance
may become a serious conundrum for the
government.
General Shafter has authority to issue
rations to the hungry people and he un-
