THE
Shatter's Forces Reconnoiterring About Santi
ago to Ascertain More Definitely the
Position of the Enemy;
. Lawton's Headquarters, Five .Miles
East of Santiago, Wednesday Evening,
Tia Kingston, Jnne 30. The American
troops spent yesterday in feeling for the
enemy, otherwise engaging in reconnoi-
sances. Shatter in person, with a small
escort, went almost to Caney, a small
town five miles northeast of Santiago,
with which the city is connected by
railroad.
Lieutenants Standing and Adeal, of
the Cnban a-my, and the American
sharpshooters have occupied a small hill
northeast of the American lines, and
looking direccly down on both Caney
and Santiago. Caney now seems to hold
about 300 Spanish troops. The small
number of troips there indicates that
the Spaniards have practically evacu
ated the place, and this is believed to be
the case. Lieutenant Standing was not
molested during his observation, though
he passed .through a camp which 24
boars previously had been occupied by a
strong Spanish outpost. .
Corporal Hucht, Seventh infantry,
who with seven men was sent out seven
miles from Santiago yesterday morning,
and was forgotten until this afternoon,
was found by Shafter and sent into
camp. The party had repeatedly Been
CAMARA WAS
TOO SLOW
American Consular Agent Bought All
the Coal at Port Said.
Washington, June 30. While not
abating its'close watch over the Cadis
fleet, the navy department does not feel
the same degree of apprehension re
garding the movements of those ships as
' when the etart was made for Port Said.
. The government has done everything
possible within fair lines to prevent the
fleet from reaching the Philippines, and
agents of the state department have
been particularly successful in their
work. !
Consular Agent Broadbent just made
a master-stroke, which he reports to the
department. While the Spanish ships
were seeking permission of the Egyp
tian government to take coal at Port
Said, the consular officer succeeded in
quietly baying up all the coal at that
place. This amounted to 2000 tons, and
it is in a good place to be shipped to
Dewey, to serve as a base of supplies for
Watson's Eastern squadron, when it
enters the Mediterranean, or to coal any
American vessels that may pass through
the Suez canal bound to the Asiatic
station. ' -' '
THE DAY IN
' THE SENATE
Debate on the Hawaiian Resolutions Is
Again Resumed.
Washington, June 30. The senate
today resumed consideration of the Ha
waiian annexation resolutions. ' Bates
of Tennessee took the floor, and spokepn
opposition to them. " He declared that
: the treaty conld not secure the necessary
two-thirds vote in the senate.
Bates declared the vote that would be
cast tor the, joint resolutions would be
the knell of republicanism, but it would
be cast. Tillman followed Bates. "Thus
far," said he, "the discussion baa been
entirely one-sided. ' Whenever a major
ity of the senate sits in absolute silence
on so important a subject as this, I am
impressed with the idea that there is
some devilment afoot." :

LAST MOVE
the Spaniards,' who did not offer to
molest them, and the Americans spent
the day as if enjoying a picnic in the
woods. The corporal said that if be had
bad with him a sufficient force he could
have brought in 40 Spanish prisoners
The camp conditions cont Due nard
Heavy rains yesterday set everything
afloat. Rations, however, are being
served out regularly, but they are still
not plentiful. Officers and men fare
alike. The latter are suffering during
the cold nights from lack of blankets
thrown away on the march. These
have been appropriated by the Cubans,
who take everything in eight, and do as
little as possible. On the whole, they
actually' fare better than our men.
The American officers generally expect
a movement today to capture Caney,
which is five miles northeast ot San
tiago.
Telegraph Lines Re-established. .
Washington, June 30. The war de
partment received the welcome informs
tion today that military telegraph eta
tions have been established at St. Villa,
in the center of the present military op
erations, and that this line rnns to a
point near Agnadores, where it con
nects with the French cable line, thus
bringing General Shafter into 'direct
communication with tha department.
THE NEXT. EXPE-.
DITION TO MANILA
Five More Transports Will Sail About
' the Middle of July.
San Francisco, June 30. It now
seems probable that the next fleet of
transports conveying troops to the Phil
ippines will be composed of the steamers
Pern, City of Puebla, Pennsylvania,
Walla Walla and Acapolco. Major
General Otis will accompany the expe
dition, which will be under the com
mand of Brigadier -General Marcos P.
Miller, and probably sail about the
middle of July! .
The Day in the House.
Washington, June 30. The house to
day adopted the conference report on
the Indian appropriation bill. Cannon
called op the general deficiency bill as
Amended and passed by the senate yes
terday, and moved a general nonconcur
ence in the amendments and a request
for a conference. . The motion prevailed
and the speaker appointed 1 Cannon,

Deafness Cannot be Cored
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of . the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
flamed yOa have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en
tirely closed, Deafness isx the result, and
unless the inflammation , can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine caws out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
flamed 'condition of the mucous Bur
faces. - '
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cared by Hall's Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars; free.

PRE GUT OUT
FOR THE J!lilY
Five Hundred More
and Also San Juan Harbor to Be
at Once Blockaded.
WASHINGTON, June 28. By proclamation issued today the president gave
notice of the intention of the government
ading about 500 miles of the Cuban coast
blockaded, and also to blockade San Juan,
of the blockade on the Cuban coast fully
not be nearly so heavy in proportion to
initial blockade, for the reason that the
the great bight on the south coast of Cuba,
shallow, and the ports are few into which
of these ports are Manzanillo, Trinidad
The purpose of extending the blockade was to command the channel on the
west Bide of the Isle of Fines and Cape
task of blockading. The vessels for the
plied almost entirely from the patrol fleet
been guarding the North Atlantic coast.
The blockade of San Joan, proclaimed today, is in reality already in effect,
having been initiated by Captain Sigsbee
a blockade at this port, in the face of
vessels in the harbor, would be considerable had not Sigsbee, by disabling the
only formidable one of these vessels, made
ror, Sigsbee rendered a most important

rear some dark night by this vicious
