YELLOW FEVER
Heavy Rains in Cuba Have Caused the
 Disease to Spread

Havana, June 22-The unusually heavy rains that have been falling throughout Cuba have caused yellow fever in places where it had been unknown for several years. Fortunately, except at Santa Clara and Quemados, the United States troops have escaped. At Quemados two new cases are reported among the members of Gen. eral Lees staf-Captain Hepburn, signal officer, and Major Kean, chief surgeon. Captain Hepburn's case is serious, but Major Keans is light. Mrs Edmunds, the wife of the late Major Frank H. Edmunds, is convalescent. She has not yet been told of the death of her husband
 Havana has developed only three cases thus far in spite of the gloomy predictions of what would occur as soon as the rainy season, from which the city did not suffer last year, was really at hand.
 Fl Cubano says:
 The Cubans have a right to object to the expenditure of money for sanitary measures intended to protect the lives of a few Americans. as they do not themselves take yellow fever. In such circumstances, large expenditures cannot be justified.
 General Wilson, commander of the mili- tary department of Matanzas, Santa Clara, telegraphs that the situation at Santa Clara City has materially improved since the troops were ordered out of the city limits. General Lees headquarters at Quemados will probably be moved to the camp in the neighborhood of Fort Colum- bia, where the troops are or possibly to the site of the First headquarters at Buena Vista.

SOUTH AFRICA WAR
General Steyn's Forces Are Drawing
 the Attention of Roberts

London, June 23.-(3:3 a. m.)-General Steyn's forces in the Orange River Colony are for the time drawing most of the att tention of Lord Roberts rather to the neglect of Commandant General Louis Botha and President Kruger. The sever ance between the Transvaal and the Orange River Conoly was completed yesterday as Lord Roberts said it would be, by the ar rival of General Buffers advance guard under Lord Dundonald at Standerton. The wire net around the 5000 or 5000 men under General Styne will now contract. Adroit maneuvering and brisk fighting are likely to take place because until all resistance south of the Vaal is at end the British line of communications will not be safe.
 President Kruger's sons, who surrender ed to General Baden-Powell, are back on their farms working peacefully. General Baden-Powell rode with only 3. men from Mafeking and he made the last section of this ride to Pretoria with only thirty-five. Lord Roberts met him in the outskirts of the town and escorted him to the presi- dency.
 General Dewits farm houses have been burned by the British.
 General Butler has issued special order eulogizing the service of Strathcona's horse
 Captain Jones and the brigade from H. M. $. Forte have been ordered back to the ship at the Admirals request.

WILL REMOVE NEELY
The United States AttorneysWin Take
 Immediate Action

Washington, June 22-It is understood here that the United States attorney at New York will take action within the next day or two looking to the prompt removal of Nicely, the alleged embezzIer of Cuban postal funds to Havana for trial. Judge Lacombe, before whom the case will be brought, expects to leave New York on July ?, and it is his wish that the matter be disposed of before his departure. Some days ago the government sent to Havana for copies of papers wanted in the case; also for a certified copy of article 401 of the old Spanish-Cuban laws against the crime of embezzlement. These papers have been received and forwarded to United States Attorney Barnett, who will prosecute the case There are two indictments against Nicely, one for violation of article 401 of the Spanish Cuban laws and the other is under sections 33 to 57 of the Cuban postal code. The former case is said to be the stronger, and it is probable that he will be tried first under the indictment for violat- ing article 401. Officials here expect that Neely's counsel will take the case to the United States supreme court.

 The contract submitted by the company gives the city the option of purchasing the plant of the Gas Company at any time on or before April 1, 1901.s Alderman Graham asked MT. Roden if he would object to the contract stipulating that the city could purchase the plant at any time within ten years from August l, 1900. MT. Roden re- piled that he would; that the company would not want such an option hanging over it as it would injure the sale of it's securities.
 The committee, after hearing the state ments of Mir. Roden and MT. March, went into executive session. The doors, how ever, were closed but a few minutes, and when open session was resumed Alderman Thach read a counter proposition which the committee wished to present to the com pany.
