At 11:30 a detachment of the Second Massachusetts volunteers started for the shore, and by noon probably 3,000 men had landed. Other detachments were following as rapidly as the steam launches could be made available. The sea was suspiciously calm and the sky clear. A cool breeze was blowing, the troops were in the highest spirits, and strains of "Yankee Doodle" were greeting every string of boats coming in. Tlie Spaniards did but little wanton mischief. A roundhouse, a locomotive, s few cars and railway offices had been destroyed, but the bulk of the village was left standing intact. Daiquiri, where Shalter's army landed yesterday, is located half way between the entrances to Santiago and Guantanamo hays, or about twenty miles east of Santiago. Daiquiri bay is a slight indentation in the coastline and affords a good protection against any other than southerly gales. The coast rises abruptly from the shore line to an elevation of from 200 to 1000 feet, and the land is generally rough and rolling, covered with a dense undergrowth. BREAK JArL.

General Merritt has received orders from the war department at Washington to organize the troops of the lhilippine expeditionary force into an army corps, to be known as the Eighth. Whenever he deems such action advisable, General Merritt is instructed to tnrn over his command to Major General Otis. The new corps will consist of three divisions, two to be made up of the troops of the first, second and third Manila expeditions and the third division to be composed of all the troops going with Major General Otis on the fourth and des-tinatio- n. last expedition.

The mechanism that bolts the cell door is apparently defective, for when Jailor Jones went into the corridor to remove the supper dishes t 5 o'clock Tracy threw open the door of his cell and sprang upon him, knocking him down with an iron poker. The jailor was beaten badly, bound to a bed and then threatened to keep quiet or be killed with his own gun, which they had secured. Lant and Tracy then went to the outside door to await the return of Sheriff Fisher. When Fisher unlocked the door he was startled by a command Into give up his gun or be killed. stead of complying he turned and ran, hurrying home after weapons which he had forgotten. In the meantime Lant and Tracy made a quick run toward the railroad tracks and were soon out of sight. Telegrams were sent to all points, but beyond this no plan of action for recapturing the desperadoes has been formed. Two Noted old-tim- er ition, THE FIRE AT PARK CITY. A LANDING.

Many were the expressions of sympathy and offers of financial aid that came in yesterday to the people who hod just been made homeless, and some of them, penniless. As to the matter of insurance, there is a possibility that the amount carried in the city will prove to be in nearer proportion to the loss than was at first supposed. Quite a good deal of stock in trade was saved from the different business houses that were destroyed, and a number of people will commence business again immediately.
