forced Inactivity.
Copyright 1895 by Associated Press.
Key West, Fla. June 29.-Colonel
Boza, chief of staff of General Maxine
Gomez, who is in Key West, left Gen
eral Gomez on June 10. He says the
old commander was in good health, bet
ter dressed than any of his soldiers and
had al excellent horse, but was eating
the miserable God which the private
soldiers lived on. General Gomez was
chatting at his enforced inactivity, and
was looking forward eagerly to the
time when he would be able to take the
field.
A few weeks ago. when the Gussie expe-
dition. conveyed by the Suanee. set out
to carry supplies to Genera Gomez, the
latter called in his scattered bands until
he had 1900 men. With these he wait
ed IA days at the coast for the expedi-
ton. Finally. giving VI hope of its
landing, he ordered the men to dispense.
Juan F. iowa, ~ex-consul at Sagua La
Grande, who was intrusted by the Unit
ed States government with the sup
plies of the Gussie to General Gomez, Is
very much concerned over the generals
plight. When the Suanee n Gussie
failed to and on the north coast, the
Gussie returned to Tampa, and the
Suanee went around to the south coast.
intending to make a landing on the 9TH
er side of Santa Clara province. But
Rear Admiral Sampson called the Su-
anee in at Santiago and asked that the
supplies be given to his Cuban allies
under General Cabreco. This was done.
Mr.. iowa had an idea that the United
States government will feel bound 10
give General Gomez the supplies that
were not landed by the Gussie and
which were taken back to Tampa. II
the government does not send supplies
it will at least furnish a warship on
which the Cubans will be permitted to
send for General Gomez.
The most elaborate relief work now
conducted by the Red Cross society Is
i'm Key West, where 1,500 Cubans arr
being fed. Six hundred persons receive
daily rations from a public kitchen
maintained Jointly by the Red Cross
the Cuban cigar makers and other Gu
bans. To-day the kitchen served boiled
fish, boiled rice. boiled beans and
thick soup. The bill OF fare is changet
every day.
There il Joy in the feet over the news
that the Red Cross society is to senC
ice to Santiago I'M to the Havana
blockade. The tug Tacoma came II
from Pensacola this morning. She will
probably take the place of the tug Cap
tain Sam, which went to Santiago las
night. The Captain Sam left for San

DEATH OF BENZ. SULLIVAN.
He Died From Injuries Received While
Prospecting Near Basin.

nv ASho afoHt
Prospecting Near Basin.
Benjamin Sullivan, a miner well known
in Butte, died at St. James hospital yes
terday morning from the effects of inju-
ries received while prospecting some
weeks ago in the vicinity of Basin. Sui
Ivan had discovered a likely looking
ledge and began running a tunel. He was
working alone one day when in some
manner he fell. striking on a shovel han
die. which inflicted a severe injury to the
groin. He thought little of IL, however,
and continued working several days. until
at length he was unable TO leave his cab
in, and as he lived alone he suffered in
tensely for days. He at last decided he
would have to get help or die, and as he
had by this time lost the use of his lower
limbs, he crawled two miles On his hands
and knees to the house of his nearest
%neighbor, who brought him to the city.
The terrible ordeal he went through try =
ing to reach help greatly aggravated his
condition, and by the time he reached the
hospital he was very low and the attend
ing surgeons informed him he could not
recover Everything possible was done
for him, however. and he lived on for
weeks suffering the most intense agony,
till death came yesterday to his relief.
Sullivan was between 30 and 40 years old
and unmarried. He had worked in the
mines of Butte for years, but for the past
year had devoted his time to prospecting.
He was a member of the Miners union.
He had no relatives in Butte, but is said
to ave a brother in the east.

yer Bow. An examination of the wound
developed that the ball had passed straight
through the body. coming out just below
the nipple of the left breast. and had
only missed the heart by an inch. Train
er was given the necessary surgical stten-
ton and last evening was doing as well
as could be expected under the circum-
stances. The attending surgeon stated
that he thought he would recover. As
there appeared no question the shooting
was not done ma~liciously. and as the
drunken brakeman received a fright that
will teach him better than to repeat the
operation, no complaint was made TO the
authorities.

IT WAS NEARLY MURDER.
John Trainer Shot Down by a Drunkel
Brakeman at silver Bow.

The manner of celebrating the Fourth
adopted by a drunken railroad man came
near costing Juhn Trainer his life on the
evening of the Fourth, and there Is no
certainty that IL will not yet, as he was
shot through and through with a .A-cal-
ibre revolver, the bullet passing within
an inch of his heart, and there is plenty
OF room for grave consequences TO follow,
although 1t is not thought at this time
that the wound will result fatally. Train
er, though pretty sore at the man who did
the shooting. will not prosecute him, as
he is satisfied there was no intention to do
him injury and is disposed to figure him.
self exceedingly lucky that he was not
killed, as only a slight detection of the
bullet would undoubtedly have proved ia
tai.
A brakeman on the Montana Union.
whose name is said TO be Dwyer, felt so
good over the numerous occasions the day
offered for celebrating, that he went on a
hilarious drunk and went about shooting
off a revolver. In passing an clubhouse
il apparently occurredto him that IL would
be great sport TO riddle the place with bull
lets in imitation of the American army
bombarding a Spanish b~lockhouse. At all
events, whatever was his purpose. he cut
loose. not supposing that anyone was in
side, as he explained after he learned
what he had done. Trainer had the mis-
fortune TO be inside. and one OF the bullets
passing through the thin boards struck
him in the back of the left side just be-
low the shoulder. He fell to the floor and
cried out with alarm and pain. Ed Cavey
happened TO be a witness. and hearing

WAR NEWS NOTES.

Definite adHces received at Key
West, Fla, direct from the camp Of
the insurgents in Cuba state that the
condition of the reconcentraddes is
pitiable and that those not slaughter
ed by SPANS soldiers are dying by
hundreds of starvation.
According to a dispatch from Paris,
Commodore Dewey'S dispatches and
the completeness of the American vic
tory have greatly chagrined the
French press, which has been assur-
ing France that the American fest
was locked up in Manila bay.
Sixteen prisoners of war, nine Off
GERS and the remainder privates and
mon-commiSsiOned officers, arrived at
Atlanta, Ga, Sunday under guard of
a detail of negro soldiers from the
Twenty-ffth regiment and were plac-
ed i'm the military prison at Fort Nc
PhersOn. The Spaniards were cap
tured in Cuban waters several days
ago by the Nashville and they have
been held in custody at Key West UNI
Til orders were given to bring them to
Atlanta.
1T is stated that a difference of
opinion with the other members,
caused the withdrawal OF Rear Ad-
miral Walker from the strategy
board. Admiral Walker, il is said,
insisted that the battleship Oregon
was in danger from the Spanish fleet
and that assistance should be sent
her from SIMPSONS fleet. The other
members of the board did not agree
with the admiral and thought the
Oregon could make her way to Key
West in safety.
Washington dispatches say that an
army of between $4,000 and $4,000 men
will be landed in Cuba at once. The
irst section will consist of $4,000 or
$4,000 troops now at New Orleans and
Tampa. Most of these are regulars
who have seen actual fighting on the
plains. The second section will con-
sist of $4,000 volunteers which will be
quickly concentrated at southern
ports. 1t will take 300 vessels to
transport this immense army, whose
mission will be to defeat the Span
iards and plant the American flag
over Havana.
Secretary Alger has in preparation

ing the regiments modified at Chick
