Again at Vion- s si went cver two lines of “unche antry as !f they were paper. In another charge the troop- ers went over the French cannon, losing only fifty men. They came so fast t the artillerymen found it impossible to 4e- Press their pieces with sufficient rapiit and accuracy. In this battle thirty-six squadrons of German horse proved that the Freach line of foot lacked the strength of cobwebs, yet this same French infantry was so good that two days later it took an entire vision of the German footmen three hours to go through them, at a cost of 4,000 lives, or 30 per cent of the attack- ing force.

The rapidity with which their renge alters makes them a difficult target, and the moral effect of their thundering and swift advance is great. It is estimated that the cavalry loss in a charge showld mot exceed one-third of the infantry los American military men of the more ad- vanced kind expect service of the highest value in heavy engagements from the splendidly composed and equipped volun- teer cavalry that has gone to the front. Of their work in scouting. reconnoissance and as media of communication there can be no question. RIPE FOR AN EPIDEMIC Opinion of the Physicians Who Ex- amined Santiago’s Condition. SIX CASES OF YELLOW FEVER THERE Fight for Supplies by the Half- Starved People of the City. —__+—__—_ THE DEADLY DEFENSES (Copyright, 1898, by the Associated Press.) SANTIAGO DE CUBA, July 18.—Gen. Shafter has had a thorough examination made of the sanitary condition of Santiago. © work was done by Dr. Goodfellow of the general's staff and by a civilian physt- cian, Dr. Orlando Dwiker. They find that although there are at present but six cases of yellow fever in the city, in addition to two suspects, the town is ripe for an epi- demic. Santiago and Rio Janeiro are considered the greatest fever-breeding centers in the world. This town lacks every sanitary feature at its best, and now, after two months’ siege, leaving it dirty and repel- lant, it is a veritable pest hole. The awful stenches that arise from the streets stag- ger and choke one. No cordial in Santiago has the power to wash out this odor from one’s throat. The majority of the houses are absolute ruins, and public squares, once green, with fountains playing in their centers, are now utter neg The iron fences are broken and rusted, while the fountains, on account of the dearth of the water supply, have long been dry. A Disease Breeder. is no sewage system. The city @rainage fs all from the surface into the harbor, and the lower part of the city, through which much of the drainage runs, especially from the poor quarter around the bull ring to the northwest of the city, is the breeding center of malaria, typho!d and other low fevers. There are iour hospitals in the city, the Civil Hospital, presided over by the Sisters of Charity, and the Military, Mercedes and Conchas Hospitals. In these four hospitals are 1,747 patients, which is a comparatively smali number, considering the lack of food and long siege, but it must be remembered that the reconcentrados were never admit- ted to the hospitals, and when the nottfica- tions of the proposed bombardment by our batteries were received every patient who could stagger out was driven into the streets. Twenty lepers who were in the Civil Hospital were turned into the streets, and they have been roaming in the streets ever since. The largest number of patients are in the Military Hospital, where are thirty-seven wounded Spanish officers and 431 wounded soldiers and sailors. In addition there are hundreds of cases of malaria and dysen- tery and six cases of yellow fever. Fought for Supplies. The Red Cross Society's steamer State of Texas arrived yesterday at 6 o'clock in the afternoon, and this morning at daybreak Dr. Elwell, who was in charge of the work cf unloading, secured eight stores in the heart of the city and one large shed on the There dock, engaged eighty stevedores, and began to unload the steam pout 6 o'clock. She had 1,400 t of provisions on board. The distribution began at 3 o'clock, al- lowing a pound and a half of rations to each citizen. When the unloading began crowds of half-starved the dock, fighting, trampling one another under foot, breaking open the c: and stealtng the suppli Finally a picket of troops was placed on the wharf, refusing admittance to any one. The entire cargo had been landed before the distribution began. Each applicant was furnished with a ration ticket, sup- plied by the local commissioners, with Gen. McKibbin's indorsement. The water supply of the cut off on July 3, above citizens rushed to city, which was sl Caney, by Geiu. Garcia’s troops, leaving the town without water, will be turned on again tonight ‘The ice factory resumed work today, using the rain water supply in the cisterns All the liquor stores, wholesale and retail. re closed under Gen. Shafter’s orders, but the Spanish soldiers have a large stock of rum on hand, which they are exchanging for our hardtack and corned-beef. Before the Surrender. The events preceding the hoisting of the American flag over the governor's palace here, amid the booming of guns, the strains of martial music, and the wild cheering of 20,000 men al: seven miles of intrench- ments, were full of interest. Shortly after 6 o'clock on Sunday morn- ing Lieut. Crook of Gen. Shafter’s staff entered the city, and all ‘the arms in the arsenal were med over to him. The work of removing the mines which ob- structed nevigation at the entrance of the harbor had been progressing all night At 7 o'clock Gen. Toral, the Spanish com- mander, sent his sword to Gen. Shafter as evidence of his submission, and at 8:45 a.m. ali the general officers and their staffs as- sembled at Gen. Shafter’s headquarters. Each regiment was drawn up along the crest of the heights. Gen. Shafter and his generals, with mounted escorts of 100 picked men of the 2d Cavalry, then rode over our trenches to the open ground at the foot of the hill on the main road to Santiago, midway to the then deserted Spanish works. ‘There they were met by Gen. Toral and his staff, ail in full uniform and mounted, and a select detachment of Spanish troops. Felt Their Disgrace. : Gen. Toral personally ordered the Span- ish company, which, in miniature, repre- sented the forces under his command, to ground arms. xt, by his direction, the company wheeled and marched across our line into the rodd, and thence to the place selected fpr camping them. The Spaniards moved rapidly, to the quick notes of the Spanish march, played by the trumpeters, but it imp done like the “Dead March” from “Saul.” Although no attempt miliate them el thei need was made to hu- the Spanish soldiers seemed isgrace keenly, and reely t their conquerors as they passed by. But this apparent depth of feeling was not displayed by the other regiments. Without being sullen, the Spaniards ap- peared to be utterly indifferent to the re- verses suffered by the Spanish arms, and some of them, when not under the eyes of their officers, seemed to rejoice at the pros- pect of good food and an immediate return to Svain. When he accompanied Gen. Shatter, at the head of the escort, into the city to take formal possession of Santiago, Gen. Toral spoke but few words. The appealing faces of the starving refugees streaming back into the city did not move him, nor did the groups of Spanish soldiers lining the road and gazing curiously at the fair-skinned, stalwart-framed conquerors. Only once did the faint shadow of a smile lurk about the corners of his mouth. This was when the cavalcade passed through a barbed wire entauglem No body of infantry could ever have xot through this defense alive, and Gen. Shafter's remark about its resis! ing power found the first gratifying echo in the defeated general's heart. Amazed Our Officers. Further along the desperate character of the Spanish resistance, as planned, amazed our officers. Although primitive, it was well done. Each approach to the city was thrice barricaded, and wired, and the bar- ricades were high enough end sufficiently strong to withst: nd shrapnel. The slaughter among our troops would have been frightful had It ever become necessary to storm the city. Around the hospitals and public bvild- ings, and along the west side ef the line there were additional works and emplace- ments for guns, though no guns were mounted in them. ‘The squalor tn the sireets was frightful. The bones of dead horses and other eni- mals were bleaching in the streets, and buazards, ag tame as sparro' hopped aside to fet is pags, eached soon after 10 The palate was o'clock. There Gen. Toral introduced Gen. Shafter and the other American generals to the alcalde, Senor Forsr, and to the chief of police, Senor Guilttterrez, as well as to the other municipal authorities, ~ was then served at the palace. The meal consisted mainly of rum, wine, coffee, rice and toasted cake. This scant fare occasioned many apologies upon the part of the Spaniards, but it spoke €lo- quently of their resistance. The fruit sup- ply of the city was absoluzely exbaucted, and the Spaniards bad nothing ‘o live on except rice, on which the soldiers in the trenches at Santiago have subsisted for the last twelve days. In addition, the wa- ter supply of the city had beer cut off for the last few days. The Spanish soldiers are encamped he- tween the lines, on the reverse slope of the hill on which are our Intrenchments. Many of them believe, as they have deen told so, that the United States has purchared the Isiand of Cuba, anJ that our government will pay them their urrears of pay and re- turn them to Spain. They repudiate tne icea that they have surrendered. — ~~ -+00 THE ARMY CANTEEN. Opinions of Methodist Bishops Re- garding Establishment of It. CHICAGO, July 20. — The Northwest Christian Advocate publishes today opin- icns of the Methodist bishops regarding the army canteen. Bishop Merrill says: ‘Any attempt to regulate the sale of intoxicants in the army or elsewhere is wrong and can only lead to wrong. The army wants protection from intoxicants as from intoxication. Better the pestilence in the regiment than the sa- Joon.” Bishop Hurst concurs in the above. Bishop Andrews says: “It endangers the health, the morals and the efficiency of the soidiers and ought to disappear from our military camps and _posts.”’ Bishop Bowman: “Through it many young soldiers have been made drunkards and some have been led to crime. It is Camaging to the army and disgraceful to the country Bishop Ninde: ‘It seems a cruel thing to place temptations in the way of our noble soldier boys who are away from the kindly and restraining influences of the home and the home church Bishop Vincent: “Every military camp should be a school of total abstinence.” Bishop Mallalou: ‘A Christian nation ought not to tolerate the demoralization and destruction of body and soul involved in the army canteen.” Bishop McCabe: ‘The establishment of the army canteen, or ‘military beer saloon,’ is a backward step in Christian civilization. It will be a source of great trouble to us if not abolished.”” Bishop Newman: ‘‘As a Christian minis- ter, I beg, in the name of the health and morals of our army, that the ‘canteen’ order be revoked without delay.” Bishop Hartzell: ‘Whatever excuse there may ever have been based upon a notion that the comfort or health of the soldiers in the use of beer and the lighter stimulant would be promoted by the establishment of these places has in recent years been swept away by gcod testimony based on experience of army commanders and sur- geons.”” ———— EAGLE DESERVES ITS NAME. Little Gunboat Destroys a Big Heavily Armored Spanish Steamer. The Spanish transatlantic liner San Do- mingo, of 5,500 tons, was totally destroyed by the little auxiliary gunboat Eagl> on July 12, off Cap2 Francis. This intelligence brought to Key West yesterday by the ashville, which came up after the attack and found the Spanish ship burned and smashed on th> reefs. The affair offers a striking commentary on the difference between American and Spanish spirits. The San Domingo had two five-inch guns mounted and loaded, her niagazines were open, and it only r2mained to train her guns and fire them to blow the little Eagle out of the sea. But the latter, with her comparatively feeble bat- tery of six-pounders, stzamed to within two miles of the enemy and poured shot after shot into her until she turned and in a cesperate attempt to get into the narrow channel grounded on the reef without hav- ing tried to return the American fire. Seventy shots were fired by the Eagle, and nearly all took effect. When the Span- ish ship went ashore a river steamer came out and took off her officers and crew. Then the Eagle sent a crew to board he there were some shouts of surprise the big guns wer2 discovered. She also car- ried in her hold two twelve-inch guns, The cargo was largely of grain and food supplies. Fifty head of cattle were penned on the decks. The Eagl>’s men decided that she was too far gone to be floated, and after shooting the cattle, they set fire to her and watched her destructicn. She was on2 of the best steamers of the enemy, ani had been used as an auxiliary cruiser. According to the was bound fro; n Domingo papers she Vera Cruz, Mexico, for ‘ew York, via Savannah; but, of course, being a regular Spanish liner, the mention of New York in her manifest is a palpable sbterfuge, the intention having been to gein some Cuban port and get the guns and provisions to the beleaguered Span- rds. age GUNBOAT DIXIE’S HEAVY WORK. Her Crew, the Maryland Naval Ke- serves, Are Winning ry and Prizes The Maryland Naval Reserves on the gunboat Dixie, under command of Com- mander Davis, are doing Mvely skirmish work on the south coast of Cuba, killing Spaniards, chasing gunboats, toppling over plockhouses and capturing prizes. The Dixie left the main body of the fleet about June 20 and took a blockading sta- tion between Cape Cruz and the Isle of Pines. The first thing she did was to de- stroy a blockhouse at the mouth of San Juan river. The same day she drew in to inflict a like punishment on another block- house at the mouth of Guanayara river, not far from the first. As she approached a dozen or more Spaniards were seen to run into the blockhouse, apparently with the intention of firing upon her. The Dixie pumped two or three six-inch shells at them and struck them fairly and the block- house was soon out of commission. At this point three Cubans were taken aboard, and they informed Commander Da- vis that his guna had done better service than he had thought, as the two destroyed blockhouses had long prevented communi- cation between the insurgents on the oppo- site sides of Trinidad. The Dixie then proceeded to Casilda, the seaport for Trinidad, where she encoun- ed two Spanish gunboats. One was the Fernando el Catholico, said to have been a new boat in the last war, but now ap- parently carrying only one gun. The ene- my made frantic efforts to reach the Dixte with this, but came no nearer than half a mile. Finally the Dixie put a shell straight at the solitary gun and sent it skyward. ‘This was done at a range of 4,800 yards, while the Fernando el Catholico lay at her mooring, necessitating firing across the Casilda harbor and a point of land. In ad- dition to dismounting the gun, the upper works of the Spaniards were badly dam- aged. The other gunboat was not identi- fled. She, too, fired at the Dixie, but fell short by 400 yards. A few six-inch shells, though they did not reach her, served as a sufficient warning to silence her. Incidentally the Dixie also routed a body of Spanish cavalry at San Juan de Cuba a day or. two before the Florida and Fanita expeditions attempted a landing there. A. few days later she captured the Three Bells and the Pilgrim prize schooners. CONVICT COOPER'S ‘TESTIMONY. Once Popular Delaware Lawyer on the Stand for Senator Kenney, The star witness in the Kenney trial at Wilmington, Del., was placed on the stand yesterday afternoon. He is Col. Ezekiel T. Cooper, serving a sentence of eighteen months in the Trenton penitentiary for aiding and abetting Teller Boggs in loot- ing the First National Bank of Dover, Every eye was on the once popular law- yer. His face was smoothly shaven, and there was a slight pallor in his face, but on the whole he appeared none the worse for his confinement; in fact, he had gained in flesh. Mr. Cooper’s manner was re- served, and but two questions were pnt to him by the defense. These referred’to two conversations he had with B in Dover, ae before Boggs’ flight in May, In the first ap Sieee 2D ae josgs told him that Senator iS ney was in ng way re- aren vereation 8, ‘prated "tha Be eee ol had ‘said that if he (Boggs) remained In ver and made a full statement of his with the bank’s funds, it would not affect Senator Kenney in the slightest. The cross-examination of Col. Cooper failed to shake bis testimony in any way. James Wise, wh haa. care of Senator Kenney’s office durfig Jély and August of 1896, was calied by 'the @éfense to disprove Boggs’ statement of: Kemney's preser-ce in Dover during that».time. The defendant had said he was im Rehobeth during the most of the time, but Boggs alleged be was in Dover five ont of every six working deys. Wise said that the defandant was in Dover but four or five times during the period. hh Aduitional testimeny of an unimportant pature followed, when the taking of test!- mony closed, and counsel on both sides presented to the court prayers touching on the points of law in the case. District At- torney Vandegrift then began his opening address to the jury. He spoke for one hour.
