COUNTY, OREGON,
SANTIAGO
GeQeral Shafter Begun tre Bom
bardment of Santiago With
Light Guns Yesterday.
GF.N, TORAL REFUSED TO SURRENDER
With Henry's Reinforcements Shafter Will
Surround the Town and Completely
Annihilate It.
Washington, July 11. The
bombardment of Santiago bas be
gan. ' That was the verbal infor
mation obtained ' last evening,
shortly before 9 o'clock, at the war
department. Almost immediately
three bulletins were posted, tbe
most important of which whs from
General Shafter. iTbis; dispatch
announced that General Toral,
who succeed General Linares in
command of the Spanish forces in
Santiago, when the latter was
wounded, had declined to surren
der, aud that the bombardment of
the town would be begun by the
army and navy about i o'clock in
the afternoon. The fact that the
bombardment was scheduled to
begin bo late in the day created
some comment, but no explanation
of it was offered. In answer to
questions bearing upon the move
ment, General Gorbm said:
"I have not the slightest infor
mation as to the reasons General
Shafter had. for beginning tbe
bombardment at tbe hour he
named, but it was probably because
be was ready just at that time.
You can speculate about that as
well as I can."
Information received by the war
department daring the few days of
truce indicates tbat Shafter has
materially strengthened his posi
tion. Daring the past week he has
received reinforcements of both
Mrtillery and infantry. Randolph's
battery of 24 guns, which left Key
West last Tuesday at tniduight, is
now in operation before Santiago,
and, as a war department official
expressed it, "when these long
toois of Randolph's begin talking,
something will happen iu Santi
ago." General Shafter bag nearly
50 siege gout and a large number
of 6-inch mortars, besides light
artillery at bis disposal. These
guns, taken in connection witb the
work that wil! be done by tbe fleet,
will, it is expected, carry terror
and destruction to Santiago.
Anxiety bas been expressed by
tbe war department officials as to
whether General Shafter had a
sufficient f rce to prevent tbe eva
cuation of Santiago by the enemy.
This anxiety whs allajed about
IiJ:.H)laHl merit by the receipt of
tbe following dispatch from Gen.
Shafter, which contained confir
mation, too, of tbe earlier reuorts
of tbe beginning of the bombard
ment'
"Playa del Ehte, July 10. To

fact that General Shatter's condi
tion ; had; greatly improved, were
shown to the president, and occas
ioned him considerable gratifica
tion. ! When questioned as to whether
he believed that there had been a
bombardment of . the city, General
Corbin replied:
j "You know as much about it as
X do; I have kept nothing back. I
should say, however, that the firing
was but the preliminary to tbe
more serious business tomorrow."
This being the case, the attempt
to take the city will probably be
made today.

Before leaving for tbe ooasl. Lioaten.
Bui Hobson bad an interview with
General Shafter.
To tbe correspondent of the An-
oiated Press Hobson deolined to talk of
bia adventure on the Merrimao. atatino
thai he mast first' make bis report to
Admiral Sampson, bat as lo bis experi
ence in Santiago be said :
"Daring the first four days wa wero
prisoners of war, and were confined in
Morrow auntie, I ass are yoa these were
extremely anaomforlable and disagree
able days. The Spaniards did not
exsotly ill-ireat as, bat it took them
some time to reo3ver from ths shook,
oaused by what most of ioem considered
our Yankee iniDudenoe in tryiog to
blooksde their harbor. As a rale tbe
offioers end man, who onme into ojotaoi
witb as. were graft in speeob and sullen
in manner. For Admiral Oervera I hive
nothing bat ths highest admiration. Hie
action, in informing Admiral Sampson
ot oar safety, I regard as that of a kind
hearted, generous man, and a chivalrous
officer. Ha repeatedly spoke to me of
his slmiratioo for what be oalled oue of
the moBt dsring acts in navsl history,
though l am sore we were not entitled
to tbe oommendation .wa reoelved, for
tbers were hundreds of other men to oar
ships who wonld have been glad to un
dertake to do Ibe sams thing.
"While we wsre in Morro oastle, we
were naval prisoners, bat at tbs end of
four days ws were trsnsfered to the
jurisdiction of the army, and wero re
moved lo the Reina Mercedes hospital
oo tho outskirts of Santiago, where ws
remained notil today. Ws knew but
little of what was going on in tbs oity,
tbongb, nf course, ws conld always tell
when onr fleet was bombarding ths
shors butteries, and ws conld easily dis
tinguish the terriUo explosions by Ihs
Vesuvius throwing dynamite shells.
"Severs! times at night we were also
tally aware that land batteries wers
fighting ontsids ths oity. Tbs liltls In
formation ths Spaniards would givs us
eonld not bs rslied upon.
"One thing Ibst I found out io lbs
hospital was that a larga nnmber ol
Spanish offi iers were wounded io Fri
day's fight, for many wsre brought to
tbs bospilsi to be treated. Numbers of
badly aimed ballets cam IntD Iba hospi
tal windows Friday, bat I da not be
lieve soy ons wss injured by tbeni. Our
quarters there were very clean and Oom
tortable, aod lbs food was fairly good.
"lo fact, I bass no reason to complain
ot oar treatment as prisnosrs of war.
Tbs prejudice whiob tbs Spaniards
showed sgaiosl us during the first few
dsys soon wore sway. Wa oond noted
oarselves properly, and sinmly foroed
Abem to treat na well."
