Senior Sagasta went to the palace

military element, which would not nec-
essarily mean the adoption Of warlike
policy, but probably the reverse.
It is generally expected that the resig-
nation will be accepted, but the result
may possibly be partial reconstruction

Burning of fJuraruacito.

OFF JuRAGuAcITo, July 13. - The
miserable little town of Juraguacito
(Siboney) lies in ashes tonight. 1t was
burned yesterday under the orders of
the army health authorities. Almost
every building Of the 80 which struggled
along the irregular bluff, was set fire to
during the day and the Cuban inhabi-
tants have fled to the caves i'll the over
hanging hillside for shelter. The action
was taken at the urgent request Of
Major Legaro Of the hospital corps and
served the joint purpose Of ridding the
camp Of the unhealthy buildings and
driving away scores Of Cuban followers,
whose presence was serious inconven-
ience to the hospital workers. The
burning of the houses also extended
along the trail to the front and numer-
GUS blockhouses were destroyed together
with dwellings,.

Admiral Dewey Appears Not to Be So
Sure of His Ground as Hoped For.
WASHINGTON, July 1S.-1t is stated at
the navy department. that Admiral
Dewey and General Anderson are wait
ing the arrival of the Monterey and the
second expedition of reinforcements be-
fore moving on Manila. Despite all
assertions Of the belief in the friendship
OF Germany, it is known that Admiral
Dewey is most anxious for the arrival
OF the double -turreted monitor. He
does not fear any Spanish attack. Ger
man interference, however, has mani
tested itself, so it is said in the depart
ment, in the creation of an anti-Ameri-
can feeling among considerable num-
Der OF Aguinaldo's army, and Admiral
Dewey is reported as not being so sure
OF his ground as when he cabled he
could take the town at any time. The
second Manila expedition left San Fran
cisco with 5000 troops for Manila June
II. 1t is expected to arrive at Manila
on the 18th inst. at the outside No
long stops are expected at Honolulu or
at the Ladrones as was the case with
the first expedition.
Governor General Anguish has issued
proclamation, promising to grant au-
tonomy to the islands and offering the
insurgents inducements to join the Span
ish forces. General Aguinaldo, the in
surgent leader, said the overtures of the
Spanish commander came too late.
The Americans are drilling perSiS ST.

WASHINGTON, July 13.-Some concern
is felt as to the situation before Santi-
ago, largely because of the lack of def
mite advices. Nothing has been heard
from Admiral Sampson directly, save
few messages relating to routine affairs,
such as transports. Up to O'Clock Of
ficials of the war department stated that
there was no news of renewed fighting
from Shafter. At 10 o'clock a special
meeting of the war board was in session
at the. White House, Secretaries Alger
and Long and Adjutant General Corbin
being among the participants.
The conference, as far as can be
learned, for reticence is observed con-
cerning it, related to health conditions
in the army before Santiago. Informa-
ton received today from the Fifth
army corps, indicated that there
is danger Of fever at Siboney
and other points. The exact state of
things cannot be learned, and it may be
that the reticence was due to lack of
definite advices as to whether fever had
actually broken out.
Later it was definitely learned that Ii
suspicious fever cases have broken out
among employees OF the quartermasters
department near Santiago. The men
have been isolated and confidence is ex-
pressed in the ability OF the doctors to
stamp out the disease.
| 1t was also stated that the fears that
the enemy might secretly draw off some
OF their forces to the mountains to the
north OF Santiago had not been realized.
The city was still surrounded, it was
said, and there appeared to be no ap-
prehension on the part Of the officers in
command that the enemy would get
away.
Bombardment Is Not Yet Renewed.
KINGSTON. July 13.-All the negotia-
tions for peaceful surrender of San
tiago de Cuba ended in utter failure
yesterday and the city must fall by the
sword. General Toral, the Spanish
commander, has finally and definitely
refused to accept Shafter's proposal for
an unconditional surrender, and the
American army now only awaits the
word OF its general to begin the final
struggle.
Just when the attack will begin de-
pends on the time which will ensue be.
fore General Randolph can land his
batteries, as it is definitely settled that
the forward movement will not begin
until the army is fully backed up by the
big guns, the absence of which cost SO
many lives during the previous engage
ment. General Randolph's movement
began early yesterday morning and at
night out of 10 batteries, but one of
four guns had succeeded in making its
way over the almost impossible trail to
the trenches at the front. This, with
the four batteries there, is not considered
by the American commander as suffi-
clent and probably "a hours more will
elapse before the general engagement
begins.

New York, May PA dispatch to the
Tim from Tampa, Fla, says: Gen.
Shafter denied report that the trans
ports at Port Tampa are not ready and
that it would take at least q week to
get them in condition for carrying the
troops. He said that all of the eleven
ships that have been here for some
time are in complete readiness and that
the five or seven now on the way and
which will arrive at the port in n day
or SD, are thought to be fitted with
hunks and stalls.
When the orders come for the en-
barkation, he said. 1t will require two or
three days to get the troops, horses
and artillery aboard. He still adheres
to his view that no movement will be
made until the Spanish fleet is disposed
of.
Asked as to how many troops would
probably be taken to Cuba, Gen. Shafter
said that $4,000 would surely be enough
He said that he thought the first ex-
peditionary force would not aggregate
this number. but n considerable army
would be sent over to establish a base
and hold 1t and await the coming of
the volunteers under Gen. Lee and
others. He said also that he did not
think the movement would be delayed
on account of the siege guns. He has
received advtces that forty-eight of
these guns. together with 1000 men and
500 horses have been ordered from
Washington but they have not yet be-
gun to arrive.
