A very cwveiL and l creditable piece
of work bas been done by Officer Scott
of the police , force. ,v For several
months he has had an inkling that
certain gentlemen of porting tenden
cies - were passing -the, chips In the 1
night and otherwise wooing dame for
tune in games of chance and hazard.
Such gatherings are usually hard
to call upon but by diligent
Officer Scott succeeded in locatiner
them and brought home to the mem

were two distinct groups of the play
ers and positive evidence has been se
cured against both. Some of those
incriminated have waived examina
tion and will submit. The others will
be brought up for trial. Officer Scott
has done several excellent nieces of
work lately but none more creditable
than this.

The Carriers! Ball Game.
The game of ball this' morning be
tween the Record and Telegram car
riers resulted in a victory for the Rec
ord carriers by a score of 12 to 10.
Quite a crowd of rooters for both sides
was present and added much life to
the game. There was a surplus of um
pires and a large deficit on their part
in the knowledge of baseball rules.
The game was close and exciting
despite the poor rulines of the um
pires. The teams lined up as follows:

The Gazette further says: "We

with America because we are anxous
to save that cause from the fickelness
of the present government."

By Wire to Thb Tklbgram.
Washington, June 10 There is a
general understanding in
official cir
cles that General Shafter's force of
twenty-seven thousand will be divi
ded after Santiago de Cuba is taken.
One part of his force will remain there
and the other part will go at once to
Ponce on . the coast of Porto Rico.
The exact date of the departure of the
force will be determined by General
Coppinger's readiness to start for San
Juan. Simultaneous attacks will be
made on San Juan; by land and
sea and will be followed by a
junction with the remnant of Shaf
ter's expedition which will travel
seventy-five miles on military roads
from Ponce to San Juan, thereby bi
secting the island. It is believed the
campaign in Porto Rieo will disheart
en Spain and will season the raw
American soldiers for a decisive vic
tory at Havana. (

dealers here. The revelation of the

topic of the town. The officials refuse
to reveal the exact character of the in
formation or the names of the opera
tors but the charge will be selling
large quantities of coal to Spanish
agents since the outbreak of hostilities.

when seen this morning, said he had
nothing to-add to the facts already
made public and that no overt action
would be taken until further develop
ments. The arrest of the operators is
