A WASTE OF POWDER.
Over Two Million Dollars Worth Thrown
Away Without Effect Against
Santiago's Defenses.

Santiago, Aug. "A party Of naval
officers, anxious to see the effect Of the
four or five bombardments of the de-
fenses Of the harbor by the fleet under
Admiral Sampson, made a two days
tour Of the batteries. One OF them
made the following statement to the
press correspondents:
"Over 81 600 900 worth OF ammunition
thrown at the batteries defending Sam
tiago harbor was absolutely harmless
in its effect so far as the reducing
of the batteries was concerned. and,
while It may have given the Spaniards
a wholesome respect for US, simply
bore out the well known fact that It is
a waste of time and money to lombard
earthworks."
Entering the harbor on steam
launch the party made close inspec-
tlon of the cruiser Relna Mercedes,
sunk in the harbor the night Of July T.
the day after Schley sunk Cervera's
fleet. The Relna Mercedes lies on her
starboard side about half under water.
The majority of her large guns have
been taken ashore, but her rapid fire
guns were left, and torpedoes were
in her tubes. She has at least five big
setts and the Texas, and the way they
are placed is a splendid tribute to the
fine gunnery Of these two battleships
which had to fire up the narrow har-
Dor mouth in the dark or with the light
of the Massachusetts searchlight.
At the hilltop a great surprise await
ed the party. This was at the battery
close to Moro, which the commander
90 hy A Il
miraI Sampson as containing several
very dangerous large modern guns, and
against which Admiral Sampson had
four times massed the flower OF the
fleet. In rudely constructed earth
works, but with excellent and deep
run ways for the gunners to bring am
munition along or run for shelter, were
four muzzle loading bronze cannon
and two cast iron six inch mortars. The
cannon are very handsome old pieces,
cast in 17oi and named after prominent
Spaniards The mortars are dated 1895,
and We're evidently cast at Havana.
On the Moro itself are two bronze
cannon Of the same make and several
old fashioned small mortars. Although
our fleet had bombarded this place
three times and the New Orleans alone
once, there was little or no damage
done except the dismounting of an old
gun, the destruction Of the lighthouse
and a small frame house nearby. The
damage was all done by the dynamite
shells of the Vesuvius.
The editor of the Evans City, Pa, Globe
writes, zone Minute Cough Cure is rightly
named. 1t cured my children after all otheI
remedies failed" 1t cures coughs colds and
all throat and lung troubles. c. II. Hagen

.HOBSON WITH MOTHER.
A Pathetic Meeting and an Enthusiastic
Welcome at Lithia Springs-To Be
Given a Public Reception.

Atlanta Ca, Aug. 2.-Lieutenant
Richmond p. Hobson, who has been
expected in Georgia ever since his ar
rival in the United States from San
tiago, is with his mother at Lithia
Springs. The lieutenant reached At
lanta yesterday, and for several mo-
ments the naval hero was a busy man.
He was kept shaking hands until each
Individual had been saluted. At Aus
tell there was a call for the distln-
guished traveller to come to the plat
form, to which he responded.
When the train pulled up at the sta
tion at Lithia Springs, where the mob
was waiting a crowd of guests from
the Sweet Water Park hotel had gath
cred to join in the welcome. The
meeting between mother and son was d
pathetic one. The son kissed his
mother, who threw her arms around
his neck. and for several moments
rested her head upon his shoulder
shedding tears of joy.
AS she walked up the lane from the
depot to the hotel leaning on the arm
Of her boy her face was aglOw The
hotel parlors were decorated with beau
tiful flowers. Flags were draped over
the portieres and the word Welcome" ,"
made Of green leaves, was spread over
the door. A string band furnished
music.
Hobson has not definitely arrange
all his plans and does not know just
how he will occupy his time prior 10
leaving for Santiago or Just how soon
he will return. He thinks now he will
go back via Key West He is to pre-
side in New York next Thursday night
at a meeting Of the Soldiers and Sail
Ors' Relief association.
Mrs. Governor Atkinson, one of the
most active workers in the Army and
Navy League, telephoned Lieutenant
Hobson yesterday that the members of
the league were anxious to give him a
reception. The lieutenant responded
by saying that he would be most happy
to accept If circumstances permitted
1t. The reception, which will be a pub
lie one, will be held at the governors
mansion tonight.

Hong Kong Aug. News has been

London, Aug. 2,-The Havana cor
respondent of the Times, in a letter
dated July 5, describes a condition Of
"groWiug Indignation" He says
Though Havana is still quiet, extra
ordinarily, ominously quiet, as calm
before a storm, there is an ever in
creasing feeling against the govern
ment's deceit in hiding the truth and
spreading false news, apparently with
the purpose of leaving the people to
the mercy of their enemies. f. mine is
slowly tightening its bands. The bulk
of the population would already have
starved but for the supplies of man
goes, pineapples and bananas. The
death rate is extraordinarily high. In
some settlements half the reconcentra-
dos have died since war was declared.
