Many bad fallen by wayside. ‘Tbe town of Santiago presents a sight. Most of the houses been sacked and the stores have been looted, and nothing to eat pebad for love nor money. In streets of the city this morning, the entrenchments, at the breast- hs, and at every 100 feet of the dwire fences were the living ons of Spanish soldiers Four Spanish steamships, tbe ora, the Riena de los Angelos, ij Tomas Brooks, and the Mexico the gunboat Alvarado, are now the harbor. Twenty two thousand refuges are} ered at Hi Caney, 5000 at Fir- aod 5000 at Cuabitas Elbonita dSam Vincente, where they sliving for a fortnight.

The Spanish troops will be camp- two miles outside the city limits, der guard, until their embarkation Fakes place. The refugees were quiet and quceful, they viewing their wrecked home philosophically as the fortune owar. Admiral Sampson's last bombardment of Santiago wrecked SThouses in the city, causing heavy damage. Prominent Democrats, Major Harvey W. Salmon, of Henry county and Colonel Vincent Varwaduke, of Saline, are in the city, Colonel Marmaduke is regarded as a andidate for Governor and his friends are doing what they can to mike his campaign boom. There bis been a good deal of talk about Major Salmoa for Governor, but in ewer to all inqairies regarding his intention he had replied that he is nota candidate at this time, and tt in his opinion one campaign thould be closed before another is pened. Thess two distinguished Missou- tians are regarded as strong friends tod some think thay will not both be candidates, end, in that event the me making the race will have the wupport of the other.

Sylvester Scovel of the New York World May Have to Pay the Death Penalty for an Unseemly Display ef Temper. Washington, D. C. July 19.— war department of the disgraceful conduct of Sylvester Scovel, the New York World correspondent, who slapped his face during the ceremonies incident to the occupa- tion of the governors palace in Santiago and the raising of the United States flag oyer the capitu- lated city, but it is believed here that the dispatch printed in the New York Herald is reliable. Assistant Judge Advocate General Morrison says the offence is a most serious ene and that it is punishable by death According to information obtair- able here, the American oflicere, accompanied by a regiment of regu- lars, entered the city of Santiago with the vanquished Toral and his took p palace, f ment both fitting the occasion, and at sharp noon Captain McKit trick, Lieutenant Wheeler and Lieu- tena } isplay, nt Miley ascended to the cupola to unfurl the American flag. Scovel, in a very officious manner, attemped to make himself a part of the commission assigned to raise old glory. The guards forced him te retire. This so angered him that he pushed his way through the crowd to General Shafter’s side and insult- ingly slapped his face. The general was ignorant of Sco vel's treatment at the hands of his soldiers, and was at a loss to know the cause of his conduct Heordered the correspondent arrested, however, and the latter is now said to be ina strongly protected guardheuse. Scovel’s fate rests entirely Shafter’s hands so as he is within his jurisdiction If Scovel should escape it is probable nothing could be done with him, but if Shafter elects he can order a sum mary court-martial. in long How Brave Chaplain Galloupe Shot and WaS Shot at Santiago.
