 GENERAL GOMEZ
Says Cuba Owes Her Indepen- denCe to Gomez'S Indomi-
 table Perseverance

Washington, July 3.-General Gomez and party were at the war department today and after short conference with Secre- tary Root went to the White House to see the President.
 While General Gomez was at the war department he met General Miles for the first time. The Cuban General was ac- companied by his son and Senor Gonzales, private secretary of General Wood. The interview with the President lasted half an hour, and at it's conclusion General Gomez reiterated, through his interpre- tor, that his mission to this country Is in no way political He came here to visit his old friend. Senor Palma. and de- sired, before returning to Cuba, to see President Mckinley, for whom he has a very high regard, and to express to him personally the deep gratitude he felt for the assistance of the United States in the Cuban struggle. No political topics, he said, had been touched upon during the interview, which was purely social
 General F1tzhugh Lee was among those who called on General Gomez at his ho- tel. The visit recalled that interesting period when General Lee was the Ameri- can consul general at Havana and Gen. eral Gomez was leader of the Cuban contingent in the field.
 When asked for his view of General Gomez, General Lee said T am one Of those of the opinion that if 1t had not been for Gomez indomitable persistence the Cubans would not have held out un- til aid came to them from the United States. It was not so much as a fighter that he distinguished himself, for there was not much fighting to do on large scale. But he held on in spite of all dis couragement and with rugged honesty resisted the efforts of the Spaniards to bribe him or his generals. He even is- sued an order that any officer seeking to corrupt the Cuban generals be shot and while he was at Havana one of the Spanish officers who sought to establish relations with Cuban officer actually suffered death when he fell into the hands of Gomez followers. It was his sentimental perseverance in forlorn hope which distinguished Gomez and which won Cuba her independence"

Telephone wires lead- ing from town to the mines in Marshall and Savage basin were cut early ana communication shut off until late thls afternoon. It is impossible to learn any particulars of the fighting, as both sides refuse to say anything During the day all kinds of rumors were current. some that fifteen men were killed. Late this evening Dr. Sheldon, who went up early this morning. telephoned that ten men, including the four mentioned above, were injured and that they would be sent down as rapidly as he could dress their wounds. Dr. Sheldon was shot through the hand by a stray bullet.
 The Tom Boy and Liberty Bell miners who went to the Smuggler-Union early this morning. compelling those properties to close down, returned to their respec- tive mines this afternoon after 1t was an- nounced that a temporary agreement had been reached by the union and Edgar Col lins, assistant manager. This agreement is said to be that the company will with draw all men from the mines except few watchmen and make no effort to re- sume work until the strike Is amicably settled and officially declared off.

New York. July S.-The morgue is be- ing taxed as it never was before and every foot is now occupied by corpses of heat victims.
 Hospital attendants are colapsing un- der the extraordinary strain to which they have been subjected, and were it not for the volunteers the situation would be greatly aggravated by enforced neglect of heat patients.
 Today's wind and rain reduced tho temperature 15 degrees. The humidity made the air so sultry, however, that the reduction was not as perceptible es might have been imagined. At 1:30 p. m. the temperature registered 94 degrees and at 8 o'clock 50 degrees. There were se deaths and r cases of heat prostration in the boroughs of Manhattan and the Bronx between o. m. and 10:30 D. m. to- day.

Weather Bureau Offers No En- couTagement for the Hope
 of Cooling Freezes
THE SUFFERING IS INTENSE
Mercury Registered Above 100 Degrees In Several Kansas Towns-Fac. tories and Shops Suspended
 Operations from Heat.

Washington, July 3-Iot weather con- tinued today in nearly all sections east of the Rocky Mountains, but as A rule showed some let up from the previous day. Reports received at the weather bureau today show that temporary relief came from thunder showers in many localities. There are no immediate pros poets of general break in the hot shell. During the afternoon showers in tho upper Ohio valley and the middle At lantic states caused a decided fall in tha temperature. Almost similar conditions are expected tomorrow except that the area over which the storms may appear may be extended. The slight disturbance noted last night in the West Indies is not making any marked advance and the relief hoped for in that direction is not materializing. The area of low pressure In the Lake Superior region is moving very slowly to the northeast and re- mains practically lifeless so that little relief Is expected from that source It will be warm again in the morning. weather bureau officials say, and the only appreciable breaks in temperature will result from local storms Ninety tSgrees and over were recorded today in Atlanta, Ga, Boston, Cincinnati, Davenport, Dem yer, Des Moines, New York North Platte. Omaha, Pittsburg, Salt Lake, St. Louis. St. Paul, Springfield. H., vicksburg, Miss while in Kansas City the ther- mometer registered 1O2 and in Phoenix. Arizona, 106. Hot weather generally pre- vailed in Kansas and Missouri, these states getting little relief.
 In Washington the thermometer reached a maximum of s6. but toward evening 1t grew cooler gradually rntil at o'clock 80 degrees prevailecs There were sixteen prostrations from the heat and two deaths reported up to 10 o'clock tonight.

Over Thirty Deaths at Philadelphia.

Philadelphia, Pa, July 3.-Although the temperature did not reach the record it made yesterday and Monday by 4 de- the fatal results from the torrid wave were nearly as great as the two previous days. The maximum temperature today was 9S 1-10 at 2 p. m. A thunder storm sent the mercury down at o'clock to- night to 80 degrees. Humidity, however, then began to play its deadly part. The storm brought only q ght shower of rain which rsas soon dried up by the sun baked streets and sent the percentage of humidity up from 40 to 45. The re- cord of deaths and prostrations promises to equal that of yesterday when more than fifty died and over 300 persons were prostrated. Up to l p. m. the number of deaths reported since last midnight was more than 30, with the prostrations over 200. The later reports from the police sta- tions and hospitals will considerably in- crease these numbers. Probably the greatest sufferers from the heat next to humanity were the horses. Hundreds of them have perlshed since the hot spell began.
 Many idle establishments were again either shut down or working short hours. It was estimated that only one-third of the working population of the Kensing ton manufacturing district was at work at 1 o'clock today. In order that heat pa- tients could be promptly attended to the city authorities have issued orders that policemen can seize any nearby team so as to get a patient to a hospital quickly. Tents have been erected in various parts of the city to care for the prostrated.
