BOMBARDMENT DELAYED
General Nelson A. Miles off for San
tiago With Reinforcements.
Washington, July 9—At 12 o’clock
it was announced in Secretary Alger’s
office that Spain bad refused to sur
render Santiago and that the bom
bardment had probably begun.
One of Secretary Alger’s official
aides, as the clock struck the noon
hour, pulled out his watch and an
nounced that according to General
Shafter’s last dispatch he would fire
the first gun promptly at noon.
Secretary Alger, when asked at 1:30
o’clock, however, if (be fighting had
been resumed at Sintiago, replied:
"I do not tbink so.”
At 1:50 o’clock a dispatch from the
front was received.
Gen. Corbin, on receipt of word from
Santiago, hurried over to the white
house and on hie return to the de
partment staled that be had nothing
to give out at present.
It is believed at the state department
that the dispatch from Santiago relates
to a surrender, as it would be consider
ed public property if it related to a
bombardment of Santiago and would
be immediately given out.
The belief that a peace movement
will be inaugurated continues strong,
but the deficite announcement ia made
that no such movement has taken
form thus far.
While making it clearly understood
that no peace movement whatever has
bsen inaugurated, the officials continue
to believe that some movement may
aiiume definite form at any moment.
Such a movement would be of such
supreme importance that the officials
deprecate the reports that it actually
has occurred.
The transports Yale and Columbia,
having on board the commanding gen
eral of the army, Nelson A. Miles and
staff, and 1,700 men, intended as re
inforcements for General Shafter, be
fore Santiago, left Charleston, 8. C., at
2 o’clock this afternoon. General
Miles and staff are on the Yale.
