Instructions to the chief quartermas-

The latter is now at Newport

last of the animals and wagons need
ed for the use of the troops already
in Cuba. The Andes was hired for
the trip from Newport News to Ha-
vana and the Taarholm, under her
charter, was to be discharged at some
Cuban port The cost of the trans
port service will be $225,000, which
must be paid from Cuban revenues.
This is only small part of the
charge which the Cubans must meet
as result of their rebellion involv-
ing intervention and the use of Amer

clude the cost of transporting troops

tents and other supplies which were
purchased or taken from the quar-

The medical department and the
commissary department have been
put to considerable extra expense by

surprising if the total would reach
a million dollars, all to be betrayed
from the Cuban treasury.

Left City Suddenly.

Oklahoma City, Ok Especially =
Sam Jones, the evangelist, had been
holding revival services in the taber-
nacle in this city for the past two
weeks. He was to have addressed
audiences Sunday, but it developed
early in the day that he had disap-
peared. Although vigorous search
was made for him, nothing was learn
ed as to the wereabouts of the evan
gelist until news was received Mon
day of his death on a train near
Little Rock.
Later it developed that Mr.. Jones
left the city hurriedly, going from his
hotel to the railway station while a
carriage waited to convey him to
the evening services. No reason for
his sudden departure was given, nor
did he state his destination. Mr..
Jones meetings here had been held
in an unfinished building. He had
spoken to large audiences, and it is
believed that he had become sudden
ly i'll as result of speaking in the
unfinished hall and had started home.
The following telegram was re-
.ceived by Rev. Mr.. Piner, who had
been instrumental in bringing Sam
Jones to this city:
