Weakened Gne Man’s Consdtution
Until It Brought Him‘to
Death’s 0001‘,

Mr. James S. Harrison. a well-known
and highly respected ‘citizen of Cleve-
land, 0., was for years a sufferer from
dyspepsia and general debility, and in
his weakened condition, resulting from
the above causes, he had the additional
ill-luck to fall a victim to malaria from
this complication of disorders. Mr.
Harrison‘s condition was becoming very
serious, when he commenced to take P.
P. P., Lippman’s Great Remedy. Its
effects were marked and immediate.
Read his letter to us. Its earnestness
is apparent:

debility I beg to submit my testimonial
as to the efiicacy of your P. P. P., Lipp-

cure for all the distressing complaints
from w hich I suflered.

My system was also full of Malena
and my condition was growing very
serious; I had no appetite, was losing
strength and was completely broken
down in health, but now my health is
completely restored, and I can eat like
a field laborer, without the slightest
fear of any serious results.

I take great pleasure in telling the
world that P. P. P. did the grand work
of restoring me to my accustomed
health. - Yours trul,

JAMES S. HARRISON,
Cleveland, 0.

'-

Dlspositlon of the Various Regiments
Overlooking the Valley Where the

|
City Lies—Our Outports Close to the

Spanish Intrenchments —- Dynamite
Guns Moved Into Position — The
fosuvius.

Kingston, Jamaica, June 28.—The ad-
vance force of the American army
rests on this stream, with the city of
Santiago de Cuba four and one-half
miles westward, in plain sight.

Sunday night the outposts, ‘consist-
ing of two companies of the Seven—7.3
infantry, under Major Coolidge, occu-
pied positions at right angles to the
road, guarding the crossing a mile and
a. half beyond Sabanilla, where three
regiments of General Lawton’s division
camped, the First, Fourth and Seven—
teenth, the Eighth, Twenty-second and
Second Massachusetts, with the Rough
Riders, Tenth Cavalry and portions of
several other regiments strung out be-
hind Ithem towards Juragua. About

Gonzales, were camped around General
Lawton’s headquarters, but less than
fifty' of them did scout duty Sunday
night.

General Wheeler yesterday, with the
First, Second and Tenth cavalry, nd
the Rough Riders, with dynamite guns.
moved up to where General Lawton’s
outposts were Sunday night, and four
batteries of the Third artillery and
four Gatling guns, with a special detail
under Lieutenant Parker, were brought
up and planted on the. brow of a hill
overlooking the basin in which Santia—
go de Cuba lies.

Not a shot was fired from the Ameri-
can side Sunday night, though the
front of the American line was not 2 8’»)
yards from the intrenchments when
the Spaniards proposed to combat the
advance on Santiago de Cuba.

Three cannon shots were heard dur-
ing the night. They seemed to come
from the distant Spanish batteries, or
perhaps seaward.

The top of every hill and mountain
north and east of Santiago is occupied
by block houses, whence the Spaniards
can view the movements of the Ameri-
can army as it advances beyond Sa—
bani‘lla, while to the eastward of the
city, gashing every knoll and bit of
high ground, are Spanish infrencli-
ments. ' ‘
Active Operations Expected To; mo1‘1 ow,

General Shaffer has removed his
headquarters from here to Jalagua.
Trans ports ht re are rapidly landing the
last supplies cf forage and ammuni-
tion, and the last of the four light but-
teries of artillery Started yesterday af-
ternoon for Jaragua by road. The ord-
nance officers say that the road is im-
practicable for siege guns and that the
landing facilities for them are inade-
quate.

Active operations before Santiago, ac-

cording to official information, are ex-
pected to begin to-morrow. '

About five hundred mules are still
corralled here. The military authori-
ties are rapidly making up a pack train
to take forward rations. The men on
shore have five days’ supplies, but sup-
plies for ten days we needed as a pre-
caution against a sudden move.

General Shafter expresses satisfac-
tion wit-h the work of the ofi‘icers who
had charge of the landing of the troops

ditions never before faced by an army,
considering the character of the land-
ing places and the adjacent country.

Commodore Schley. commenting on
the landing, said: “It Is breaking all
records in modern history to land such
a number of men, fully provided with
all the necessaries and in a hostile
country. I cannot fathom the lack of
Spanish opposition."

Commodore Schley thinks the Span~
ish naval ofllcers, as a last resort, will
destroy their ships by blowing them
up.

A Cuban spy, who was recently in
Santiago de Cuba. says that a rel? n
of terror exists among all classes thele
owing to the nightly attacks of the
Vesuvius, with the terrible explosion
of her dynamite shells. A week ago
last night one of her shells, striking
Cay Smith, demolished several ware-
houses and a. fort there, besides dis-
mounting several guns. \Vindows, it
also appears,'were broken in the city,
and the general effect was similar to
that of an earthquake.

 

A Profitable Business.

New York, June 28.—Spike Sullivan.
who defeated Dal Hawkins, the much
Iheralded lightweight boxer of San
Francisco, in twenty-two rounds at the
Lenox Athletic Club last Friday night,
received for the winner’s end $2,343.50,
while Hawkins was presented with
$714.50, which was the laser’s end. Sul-
livan, besides carrying off the winner’s
end. also won over $32,000 in bets. which
swelled his winnings- to over $5,000. all
of which, with the exception of about
$200, was put in the bank.

 

To Invade the Province.

Washington, D. (3.. June 28.—It is the
intention of the government to invade
the entire province of Santiago de Cuba,
as soon as the city has surrendered.

For this purpose MajorGeneral Shaf-
fer will remain in Cuba With an Ameri-
can army of 20,000 men and a Cuban
army of 10,000 men, under General Gar-
cia.

MHOUGH moses CRITICISED.

 

It Was 3 Mistake to Use lCavalry as
Infantry,
' Washington, June 28.—‘—'I‘here is a dis-
position among experienced military
menhere to criticise the tactics of the
Rough Riders in Friday’s battle near
Sevilla. It is said that there was fool-
Ihardy management in exposing the
mass of the men needlessly 'to the
Spanish fire, instead of throwing out
the customarv skirmish lines. It. is
recalled, however, that the whole move-
ment was under command of Colonel
Wood, Roosevelt’s superior officer, who

’ is experienced in Indian fighting in the
. Northwest; under conditions very much

like those of the war in Cuba.

The prime fault for the heavy loss
seems still to lie where it was placed
in these dispatches on Saturday—in the
use of cavalry Itrops as infantry. Used
as cavalry, their tactics under Wood
would have been all right, but infant-
rymen have to be trained, both officers
and men, to their own class of work,
as carefully as cavalry have to be
trained to theirs, and ‘they are utterly
different. General Young’s handling
of his men was strictly infantry fash-
ion. He had his skirmish line out and
the men were alert in taking advan-
tage. of every hiding place where they
could fire upon the enemy with lahe
least exposure of themselves. Moreov-
er, General Young had a light piece of
artillery with which he could rake the
bushes ahead of him and on the sides
and make it impossible for the enemy
to keep within easy range of his troops.
One such piece would have accompan-

ied the advance of the Rough Riders, ~

but, according to report, it had to be
abandoned on account of the steepness
of the hill the men had to ascend. In
all theSe circumstances all criticism
in detail should be deferred until the
fuller official, reports reach Washing-
ton.

Important Bulletin Issued To-dny' from
the Navy Departlnont—Drcisiun to At-
tack Spanislr Cit“? Reached Ou‘y After
Careful Consideration in Washington——

Important Coast Towns to Be Bom-

ba: (led.

Washington, D. 0., June 28.—The war
policy of the administration has been
made public by the announcement of
the navy department that a squadron
is to be formed at once and sent
against the coast of Spain. The
nouncement was as follows:

“Commodore VVats-on has sailed on
the Newark to join Admiral Sampson,
when he will take under his command
an armored squadron, with cruisers,
and proceed at once off the Spanish
coast.”

The news occasioned more excitement
and enthusiasm ameng the army and
navy ollicers than any event since the
destruction of the Spanish fleet at Ma-
nila.

Hard-1y had the thrill caused by the
first bulletin subsided when another
one was posted giving the detail of the
squadron to be sent to Spain and the"
rearrangement of the naval forces in
the Atlantic, made necessary by the
creation of this new squadron. "

The Fleet That Will Be Sent to Spain.

An-

ELl'l -

Spain is 'to be crushed at once.

other terrible blow is to be struck and

it will be directed by a fast squadron
of powerful armored warships, The
fleet thus far selected to proceed to
Spain_consvists of the battleship Ore-
g-on, which is famous the world over
for her record breaking trip from San
Francisco to Key West; the Iowa, next
to the Oregon, the most formidable ar-
mor clad in our navy, and the second
class armored cruiser Newark, fresh
from the Norfolk navy yard.
Accompanying this force will be the
auxiliary cruisers Yosemite, Yankee
and Dixie, formerly the El Sud, El
Norte and El Sol, respectively, fast
vessels of the Morgan Steamship line.
Three of the largest c‘olliers owned by
the government will go with the squad-
ron, loaded with'coal, and will keep

,the cruisers and battleships provided

with fuel.
Watson to Command.

Commodore Watson, formerly in com-

mand of the blockading squadron off‘

Havana, is to have charge of the ex-
pedition. He will have the Newark for
his flagship.

The orders of the department are for
this fleet to be formed at once and
leave immediately for Spain.

The Newark sailed Monday morning
from Norfolk for Santiago, where the
flying squadron is to be, formed.

At that place it will be joined by the
Oregon and Iow'a, the three converted
cruisers and the colliers. .
Fleet Expects to Leave Thursday Night.

The department expects it to leage
on its cruiSe for Spain not later than
Thursday night or Friday morning.

It is possible t.h..t the Newark may
meet the other ships at sea and thus
gain a day or so on the journey.

The general orders to direct the oper-
ations of this squadron are to wage
aggressive warfare against Spain.

This will mean that the Spanish cit-
ies are to be bombarded and also” that
the Cadiz fleet is to be destroyed.

The department picked the vessels to
comprise this force with the idea if
having efficient men in command of
them, as much as getting powerful
ships.

Every Ca ptain a Fighter,

Every captain in the fleet is alight-
er. Captain Clark of the Oregon has
demonstrated that he is a fearless
commander; Captain Robley Evans has
already earned the sobrlquet of Fight-
ing Bob; Captain Barker was until re-
cently a member of the war board and
has the confidence of the secretary.
Captain William En e1 v who is on the
Yankee; Captain Bansrnson, on the Yo-
semite, and Captain Dav Is, on the Dixie,
are all men who hRVe demonstrated
their courage and skill as commanding
officers.

THE LATEST FRON MANILA.

 

Situation Remains Unchanged—First. Ex-
pedition Bad Not Arrived.

Manila, June 23, via. Hong Kong, June
28.—Up to the time this dispatch is
sent the transports from San Fran-
cisco having on board American troops
intended to reinforce Rear Admiral
Dewey had not arrived here and there
was no change in the situation.

The insurgents have not made any
further advance and the ‘paniards
have been continuing the con51ruction
of sand bank f-iort fications and the
planting of sharpened bamboos around
Manila for the purpose of stopping the
in-surgents’ advance.

The papers here continue appealing
‘to the natives to come to the assistance
of Spain.

 

Camara’s Orders.

Madrid, June 28.—It was announced
here that Admiral Camara, in com-
mand of the Spanish squadron, now at
Port Said, 'has been ordered to proceed
through the Suez canal with the War-
ships under his command.

 

Port Said, June 28. —Upon the appli-
cation of the United States consul here
orders have been issued forib dding the
coa‘ling'at this port of Admiral Cama-
ra’s squadron until further orders. _

-__——-_—

Coiumbia to Join Sampson.

Block Island, R. 1., June 28.—The
auxiliary cruise-r Prairie is expected to
arrive here at once to take the place
of the Columbia, which left here Sun-
day night under orders to proceed to
Cuban waters to join Admiral Samp-
son's fleet. The Columbia left here as
soon as her instructions were received,
and, steering about sout‘h, put on a
twenty-knot speed, which should bring
the ship to Santiago by Wednesday
night or Thursday morning.
