There is a coincidence in a prolonged
drought and in an increased mortality
among the negroes in Charleston, 8.
0 . , as also a connection between the
two. Tite News and Courier, of that
:ity. says there has been little rain in
that section for 40 days or more, with
the result that many of tho water cis
terns are empty. The colored people
in the city depend largely for their
water supply on water caught in bar
rels from the roofs of their liouseB.
This is vile water under the best con
ditions, daily becoming worse when the
supply is not renewed. With the fa il
ure of this the negroes, having no
knowledge o f hygiene, resort to the sur
face wells, which, if not worse, are as
bad as the depleted cisterns. As a re
sult the health officer’ s report of the
number of deaths among the negroes
for the week ended on Saturday last
was 25, the deaths among tho bettor
Situated whites for the same period be
ing only two. An effort to remedy the
conditions is being made in tho estab
lishment of artesian drinikng foun
tains. Where these have been placed
sickness and death rate have been great
ly reduced, and tho News ami Courier
calls for their general introduction in
tho negro quarter.

Washington, May 18.— Orders woro
given Genorul Milus this morning sus
pending for the present tho movement
of the invading army upon Cuba. The
suspension was induced by tho proxim
ity of tho Spanish Cape Verde squad
ron to Cuban wuters. It is deemed by
tho department to be tho part of wis
dom not to risk landing troops on
Cuban soil until u landing can he
effected under tho protection of a
stronger fleet than is r.ow available for
the purpose.
Tho war department today issued or
ders for tho assembling of 29,087 vol
unteers at Chickamauga.
This em
braces 88 regiments and five flatteries.
These troops are divided among the
different states.
It is stated at tho war department
that the order to tho New York and

ceed to Tatnpu by water lias been coun
termanded. Tho troops w ill go to thut

Tampa, Fla., Mav 16.— It is thought
that the sighting o f the .Spanish fleet
w ill cause the postponement o f theHail-
ing of tho fleet of transpoits for Cuba.
Now that there is another chanco for a
decisive conflict between the fleets,
army movements will wait until that
conflict, which it is hoped w ill result
in the destruction of tho enemy, shall
actually take place. Should Admiral
Sampson prove victorious, no doubt is
entertained that orders will be given
for instant embarkation, and the op
portunity tlie army has been longing
for will lie at hand.
Joseph E. Wheeler, the old Con
federate cavalry leader, recently com
missioned major-general of volunteers,
will command the United States cav
alry in tho Cuban army of invasion.
Major Gnllingcr will be inspector-gen
eral of cavalry.
Nearly 1,600 troops, regulars and

General Otis w ill be second in com

On Board the Flagship Iowa, off Sari
Jnan de Porto Kiuo, May 16. — Die
enemy’ s loss in the attack by part of
Sampson’ s fleet on the forts of San Juan
Is believed to be heavy. The American
loss is two men killed and seven men
injured.
After three hours’ firing, the ad
miral withdrew the fleet, heading for
Key West. He said:
‘ ‘ I am satisfied with the morning’ s
work. I could have taken San Juan,
but I have no force to hold it. I only
wanted
to administer punishment.
This lias been done. 1 came for the
Spanish fleet, and not for San Juan.”
The men killed were:
Seaman Frank Widomark, of New
York.
A gunner’ s mate, o f the Amphitrite.
The latter died from the effects of the
extreme heat.
Of the injured men, three were on
the Iowa and four on hoard tho New
York. The names of those slightly in
jured on tho Iowa are:
Seaman
Mitchell, Private Marine Merkle, A p
prentice H ill. Injured on tho New
York: Seaman Samuel Feltman, seri
ously; Seaman Michael Morphy.
The four above-named were injured
by tlie bursting of a shell on the New
York. This is a complete list of the
killed and wounded.
The American ships are uninjured.
The engagement began at 5:15 A. M.
anil ended at 8:15 A. M. Tho enemy’ s
batteries were not silenced. Tlie town
in the rear of the fortifications probably
suffered. Tlie ships taking part in the
action were the Iowa, Indiana, New
York, Terror. Am phitrite, Detroit,
Montgomery, Waumpautuck and Porter.
The enemy’ s firing was heavy, but
wild, and tlie Iowa and New York
were probably the only ships hit.
They went right up under tlie guns in
column, delivering broadsides and then
returned. They passed in front of tlie
forts. jHiuring tons of steel on shore. It
¡ h impossible to judge the amount of
damage done to tho buildings and forts.
They appeared to he riddled with shot,
but tlie Spaniards were plucky.
Tho after-turret o f tlie Amphrite got
out of order temporarily during tlie en
gagement, but she hanged away with
her forward guns.
After the first passage before tho
forts, tlie Detroit and Montgomery re
tired, their guns being too small to do
much damage. The Porter and Waum
pautuck also stayed out of range.
Tlie smoke hung over everything,
spoiling the aim of the gunners and
making it impossible to tell where our
shots struck. Tho officers and men of
the ships behaved with coolness and
bravery. Tho shots flew thick and
fast over all our ships.
Tlie men who wore hurt during tho
action were injured by splinters thrown
by nil eight-inch shell, which came
through a hunt into tlio superstructure,
and scattered fragments in all direc
tions. Tlie shot's course was finally
ended on an iton plate an inch thick.
Merkle was struck in the arm and may
lose it. A fire was started in tlie boat,
hut was quickly extinguished.
Morro battery, on tlie eastern arm of
tho harbor, was tho principal point of
attack.
Rear-Admiral Sampson and Captain
Evans were on the lower bridge of tho
Iowa, and had a narrow escape from
the flying splinters, which injured
three men.
Tlie Imva was hit eight times, hot
the h I iu II h made no impression on her
armor. Tlie weather was fine, but the
heavy swells made ncournto aim diffi
cult. The broadsides from the Iowa
ami the Indiana rumbled in tlie Hills
inshore five minutes after they were
delivered.
Clouds of dust showed
where the shells struck, hilt tlie smoko
hung over everything.
The shells screeching overhead and
dropping around showed that tho Span
iards still stuck to their guns.
At 7:45 A. M., Admiral Sampson
signaled “ cease tiring.”
“ Return”
was sounded on the Iowa, and she
headed from the shore. The Terror
was tlie last ship in the line, and, fail
ing to see tlie signal, she hanged away
alone for about half an hour, the con
ceit of shore guns roaring at tier and
tho water flying high around her from
the exploding slid Is. Hut she pos
sessed a charmed life, and reluctantly
retired at 8:15.
As at Matanzas, the unsatisfactory
conditions, tlie smoko and the d is
tance, prevented any important cell-
elusions being diuwn. The town of
San Juan must have suffered. A l
though somewhat protected by the
hills, the high shots must have reached
it. No traces of tlie Ixtinhardraont
were discernible on the forts, except
small tires, which were apparently ex
tinguished before tlie fleet left.

The flesh of young giraffes, especially
that of a young cow, is extremely g.Hsl,
somewhat like veal, with a game-like
flavor. The tongue, from 18 to 20
inches long, is also very good. But
the marrow bones afford the greatest
luxury to the South African hunter.
A giraffe marrow bone, atsurt three
feet in length, roasted over the camp
fire and sawn in half, furnishes, with
the accompaniment o f toast or bread,
an epicurean feast for a couple of men.
