I suffered from Eczema on the right ear. I
could hardly keep my hands off it, the itching
was so severe. Small bubbles would open,
emitting a watery-like substance, apparently
poisonous. .One of the leading doctors here
treated me, and applied the usual physician's
remedies without benefit. My brother rec-
ommended that I try CUTICURA. . The first
application was soothing, and before the box
was half gone the disease had disappeared.

THE FIFTH ARMY CORPS.

 

It Will Probably Be Sent North to
Recuperate.

Santiago de Cuba, July 21, via King-

ston, July 22.--General Shafter has

opened, a. cable office here and is in.

communication with W’ashington re-
garding the disposition of the Fifth
army corps, which consists of those
troops which came with him from Tam-
pa, and the reinforcements from the
four transports which have since been
unloaded. Except the Thirty-third and

part of the Thirty-fourth Michigan,
none of the latter have been in ac-
fion.

So far as health considerations go,
'General' McKibben seems to hold the
opinion that the Fifth corps could join
the Porto Rico expedition under Gen—
eral Miles at once.

This was the evident intention when
the invasion army left the United
States, but the condition of the men
now, according to the physicians and
commanding officers, is such that the
entire corps should return to the north
at once. General Miles has cabled that
he does not want and will not need a
single man among them, and he be-
lieves that after the 'hard campaign to
them should be given at least a rest of
two or three weeks.

General Shafter’s messages to the
same effect have been most: urgent, and
the doctors say that the men should be
sent into camp in the mountains of
North Carolina or western Maine for
a. month.

The Washington authorities agree to_

this, and will do everything possible, so
the cable dispatches to-day say, to car-
ry the army away from here. But there
is a lack of transports. In addition to
the Porto Rico troops, which will need
forty steamers for their conveyance,
the authorities here are still counting
upon having to convey 22,000 Spanish
prisoners to Cadiz. The latter want to
go as soon as possible, and it appears
from here that our government cannot
get sufficient vessels and this fact holds
the Fifth corps here, doing nothing. The
men are anxious to get away.

 

U. 8. POST OFFlCE FOR HAWAII.

 

The Postmaster General Says They Will
Be Established Soon.

Washington, July 22.--Postmastcr
General Emory Smith said yesterday
the United States domestic postal ser-
vice would be extended to the Hawaiian
islands as soon as the flag was raised
there. The details have not yet been
worked out, but it has been determined
to make as few changes as possible
in the present Hawaiian system for the
time being. The regular postal rates
will apply to all points within the is-_
lands, but it is a question whether the
ordinary rates will prevail for mail
transported by vessels. It may be nec-
essary on account of the long voyage
to increase the rates slightly. _As the

Hawaiian stamps will be replaced, it is

probable a. large office will be establish-
ed at Honolulu or some other city for
the sale of stamps and money orders.

 

MARIA TERESA TO BE SAVED.

 

- Sampson Wires She Will Probably Be

‘ Raised by Next Sunday.
Washington, July 22.--The following
report has been receiVed from Admiral
Sampson:
‘ The United States Flagship New York
off Playa del Este, July 20.

’ Secretary of the navy, Washington:

Progress in wrecking the Maria Te.-
resa. very satisfactory. The company
thinks the ships will probably be raised
on Sunday next. No information re-
garding the other ships.

Board of officers examining the Reina
Mercedes to-day. She will probably be
raised.

Lieutenant Commander Pillsbury,
commanding the Vesuvius, has been
supervising the wrecking of these ves-
sels on the part of the navy.

(Signed) ‘ SAMPSON.

 

Pay After Work is Done.

Washington, July 22.-—The war de-
partment is taking every precaution to
insure the carrying out to the letter of
the contracts for the transportation of
the Spanish prisoners back to Spain by
the Spanish Transportation Company
which has secured the contract. A du-
plicate of the contract signed by the
company will be furnished to the Span-
ish officers on the vessels, and they will
be invited by the war department to
inform the VVashlngton authorities in
case of the slightest violation of the
agreement.

The withholding of the contract
money until the Spanish soldiers shall
have been delivered is also regarded as
a. precautionary measure which will
certainly result in an adherence to the
terms of the agreement between the
United States government and the tran—
sportation company.

 

Not to Take Santiago Troops. I

Washington, July 22.--Secretary Al-
ger said yesterday that the troops that
were in the engagement at Santiago
would not be sent to Porto Rico and
there was no desire to send them there.
They will remain in Cuba until the
yellow fever. has been entirely stamped
out. .

General Miles“ did not think it advis-
able to take any troops to Porto Rico
that were liable to have contracted the
fever, and~in this conclusion the de-
partment concurred.

Wrecked on the Yukon.

Seattle, Wash., July 22.--The steamer
from
brought news that the

 

J. Evans, which were towed to the
mouth of the Yukon river, have been
wrecked. All on board both vessels
have been saved. The former carried
twenty-four passengers, the latter thir-
ty-five.

Embarking at Tampa.

Tampa, July 22.--The heavy artillery
under General Rodgers and the Fifth,
Eleventh and Nineteenth infantry, un-
der General Schwann, are at Port
Tampa, embarking as fast as possible.

Some delay is anticipated owing to
the scarcity of transports, but as oth-
ers are expected hourly no serious in-
convenience will be experienced.

 

Gen. Duflleld Ordered Home.

Washington, July 22.--Brlgadier Gen-
eral Duffield, who was stricken at San-
tiago several days ago with a mild
form of yellow fever, has been ordered
home by the war department. The or-
der is to take effect as soon as General
Duffield is able to travel.

WILL HOLD POPTO moo]

Failure to Invite Him to Surrender Coro-
monies Be Thinks an Indignity,

Santiago, July 20, via. Playa del Este,
July 2?.—-General Garcia has written
a letter to General Shaffer in which he
declares that he is disgusted at his
treatment at the hands of the Ameri-
cans and will consequently withdraw
his own forces to the hills, being no
longer willing to submit to the indig-
nities to which he says'he has been
subjected.

Among the things of which General
Garcia complains is the failure of the
American commander to notify him 02-
ficially of the surrender of the Spanish

forcec ‘ “‘"er General Toral. and he is
also '-“:-l at the fact that he was
not ._ to be present at the cere-

mnr~ amending the formal capitulation
of Santiago.

Another of his grievances is the action
of General Shaffer in retaining the
Spanish civil authorities in the admin-
istration of their functions in Santia-
go.

For these reasons he declares that
he will no longer co-operate with the
forces under General Shaffer’s com-
mand, but will act independently, as
he did before the American troops lan-
ded in Cuba.

General Shaffer will return a formal
answer to the Cuban leader’s letter.

 

WELL HOLD PORTO RICO.

 

Authoritative Declaration Made That We
Will Hold the I'land.

Washington, July 22.--The authori-
tative declaration has been made that
the island of Porto Rico will be held as
a. permanent possession of this country
as the price of the war. The subjoined
practically official statement was made
to the Associated Press yesterday:

“Porto Rico will be kept by the Uni-
ted States. That is settled and has been
the plan from the first. Once taken, it
will never be released. It will pass for-
ever into the hands of the United States
and there never has been any other
thought. Its possession will go toward
making up the heavy expense of war to
the United States. Our flag once run
up there, will float over the island per-
manently.”.

The same authority says the future
of the Philippines is a matter of devel-
opment, and that so far there is no
certain policy finally adopted regarding
these islands. They are subject to de-
velopments in the war situation in the
Pacific. It was
though not definitely asserted, that the
Ladrone islands might follow the fate
of Porto Rico and become our perma-
nent possession, being valuable as a
coaling and supply station for our ships
when en route to eastern Asia.

WATSON’S DEPARTURE.

 

He Will Start Alter thefiPorto Ricnn
Expedition Gets 011‘.

Washington, July 22.--Secretary Long
had a long conference with the presi-
dent yesterday, presumably relating to
the departure of the Porto Ricaneex-
pedition. The secretary said the time
of departure of Commodore Watson’s
squadron had not been finally fixed.
It would depend, hesaid, upon the
movement upon Porto Rico. Watson
Would not start until after the Porto
Rico expedition had gotten off. '

Referring .to Watson’s visit to the
Spanish coast, Mr. Long added in~re-
spouse to inquiries that there was no
fear of its bringing about any protests
from or complications with any foreign
powers. He ridiculed as absurd certain
reports that some of the powers might
make trouble if Watson goes to the
peninsula. ’

'——-—.————-l—-
More Fighting Yet.

Washington, July 22.--According to
a high authority at the war depart-
ment there will be more fighting in
the territory surrendered by General
Toral, the garrison at Guantanamo and
several smaller towns having declined
to be included in the capitulation of
Toral and will fight it out.

Colonel Hecker, in charge of the
transportation of Spanish prisoners
from Santiago to Spain, states that no
prisoners will be removed until the
entire number in the territory are eith-
er-killed, captured or surrender.

This condition of affairs is believed
to account for the failure of General
Miles to make an immediate start for
Porto Rico. He remained until he had
satisfied himself that a sufficient num-
ber of men were to be left in the sur-
rendered territory to force the recal-
citrant garrisons to terms.

 

Peary’s Ships Not Sighted.

St. .Johns, N. F., July 22.--The La-
brador mailsteamer Leopard arrived
to-day and reports that it did not
sight Peary’s steamers Hope and
Windward along that coast, nor was
any word of them heard. The coast be-
ing clear of ice as far north as Cape
Harrison, the captain of the Leopard
concludes that the steamers made the
best use of their opportunity and stea-
med north as fast as possible. Peary
did not call at Turnavick as in former
years. ‘

 

Need Not Pay the Tax.

Washington, July 22.--The commis-
sioner of internal revenue has decided
that although a social club selling wines
and liquors to its members and their
guests is required to pay a special tax
as a retail liquor dealer, it is not re-
quired to pay special tax as a proprie-
tor of a billiard room, as the new law
specifically states that it relates only
to bowling alleys and billiard rooms
open to the public.

 

Recruits at Camp Black.

Camp Black, Hempstead Plains, July
22.--There are now nearly a thousand
troops in camp, who will form part of
the Two Hundred and First and Two
Hundred and Second volunteer regi-
ments. They are mostly-from Buffalo,
Syracuse and Utica. These men, after
spending their first night in camp,

reported in good condition yesterday,

when they were supplied with their un-
lforms.

 

St. Louis Start-s Away.

New York, July 22.—-With bunkers
full of coal and plenty of ammunition
and other supplies on boa-rd, the aux-
lliary cruiser St. Louis left the Ameri-
can line pier shortly after 12 o’clock
yesterday afternoon and steamed down
the bay to Tompkinsvil‘le, there to
