responsible should any harm befall
them. This ultimatum was rendered
unnecessary.

The effect of General Miles strenu-

cision to send at least one regiment of

The haste of the Spanish in cvacua,

actually frying. Our soldiers prolitcd
by this.
The Spanish tried to destroy the
flour supply by cutting open the bags,
but much Of this was saved by our
troops, who are on very short rations,
as they carried only about three days
supply from Baiquiri. Indeed, the
second Massachusetts infantry took
nothing. The heat led many soldiers
to discard their rations as well as
their clothing. The heat of the jungle
fenced road was awful, and especially
to heavily accoutered men. and the
path was lined with packets. Their
shirts were discarded by hundreds. as
well as blankets and haversacks. Sew
eral men were exhausted and removed
to the rear, not from sickness, but
from heat.

KEEPS HIS WORD.
Tho Cuban Patriot. Garcia, Living Up to
Iii. Contract.


Washington, d. c.. June 24.-Lieut.
Rowan of the army says that General
Garcia has thus far fulfilled every
promise made to him when he visited
the insurGcnt camp in May, and has
conscientiously carried out in the strict
est manner his side of the arrange
ment for n cooperation with our army
and navy. The Cuban general appear
ed Mt the place designated on the date
appointed with exactly the number of
troops promised and has submitted
himself and men to the orders of Ad-
miral Sampson and t.aneral Shafter.
Lieut.. Rowan speaks with the great
est admiration Of General Garcia, and
says he Is a true patriot and n good
soldier.
The simple Of fighting shown by the
insurgents down around Santiago
have not been able to put down the
rebellion In Cuba. The naval officers
in their reports to the department
speak in enthusiastic terms of the
bravery, the endurance and the intel
ligence of the Cubans who have come
under their observation. Hardened to
nature, like the American Indians,
whom they resemble, they are able to
endure great hardships without weak
ening their physical strength. They
can go long time without food and at
all times subsist without difficulty up
on natural fruits, berries, vegetables
and the products of the Cuban swamps
and forests, upon which nn ordinary
white man would starve. They are ex-
cellent scouts, full OF resources, have
keen perception and are absolutely
fearless. Their greatest defect, how
| ever, is lack OF experience with fire
arms. Many Of them are poor marks
men and all are wasteful of their am
munition. which makes 1t necessary to
caution them constantly. Most Of the
insurgents that have come into our
camps IN Cuba are negroes, and a ma
jority Of them Of full blood. They are
entirely uneducated, cannot even read
or write, have no knowledge Of the
outside world md are as ignorant as
the, colored mountaineers Of Tennessee
I,or North Carolina. Z

IGNORING PORTO RICO.
Army Authorities Giving Their Whole At
tention to the Santiago Campaign.

Washington. d. c., June 4.-The
project to occupy Porto Rico Is now re-
garded by prominent officers Of the
army and navy as practically removed
from immediate consideration. They
say that unless the death rate of Gen
eral Skaters army from diseases in
digenous to Cuban soil Is exceedingly
high. the President will authorize the
prosecution of general aggressive
campaign throughout the entire island
OF Cuba the moment Santiago Is cap
turcd
When General Miles returned he is
said to have convinced the highest au-
thorities that the hest of military rea-
sons existed for concentrating every
resource of the government. for the
time being at least, to the support OF
General Shafter.
His campaign was of more hazard
Gus nature than had been generally
appreciated. Notwithstanding the ex-
cellent equipment and the trained
forces which had been provided in this
army corps. the fact that $4,000 men
were to be landed in n strange country
In the face of numerous force whose
exact strength could only be estimated.
would probably prove the crucial
event of the whole war. Its success
might be expected to result la Spain's
prompt realization OF the futility OF
further resistance, while serious re-
verse even of temporary character
might indefinitely prolong hostill-
ties.
The Illusion that the actual posses
sion of Porto Rico constituted any
valid advantage from an international
law point was speedily dispelled by
the citation OF precedents. 1t was also
made evident that the United States
had absolute justification for exacting
the surrender of Porto Rico by Spain
as an indemnity against part of the
cost of the war.
1t now appears to be settled that no
attention will be paid to Porto Rico for

Praise From All Sides for the Landing at
Santiago

Washington. ID. c., June 25.-Thr
successful establishment Of General
Shafter's army corps upon Cuban soil
when it is adequately appreciated by
the American public. will be rlghtfully
regarded as one Of the memorable mil
itary achievements OF history Euro
peanS who are more familiar with vast
army movements are already aston
ished al the brilliancy with which the
enterprise was carried ont. 1t turns
out that the misunderstood delay mt
Tampa was utilized TO excellent ad-
vantage by the authorities 10 insure ev-
cry feature of the program against
failure, and the result demonstrates
that the command OF the United States
forces has been in thoroughly capable
hands. Impartial tactical experts de-
clare that not more than three or four
incidents in military history have ap-
preached in importance the present dis
patch of troops to Santiago, and that
none of these was more famous than
General Shafter's promises to become.
Greater bodies of troops have perhaps
been transported 10 II distance from
their main base of supplies, but these
have occurred either In times of peace
or they have been unsuccessful. The
rapidly with which his 10000 men
have been carried over 1000 miles on
the high seas and successfully landed
is Unprecedented.

The telephones ends are fastened to
the heads of both men, and gives them
full use OF their hands. BY n wire
connection made above water by two
tenders, n diver can talk to another
who is working some distance from
him. The old system Of signaling
wants by the number of tugs at the
life line was very unsatisfactory, for
often the signals were misunderstood,
and many diver lost his life for that
reason.
Six OF these telephones were In use
by the divers working on the wreck of

saved the lives of several of the men
