parently as many visitors in sight as at any

over the grounds to see what their varying

WASHINGTON , June 14.-Without reference -

evitabie and rarely does a fleet get off as
at first intended ,
Ilowever , the department oflicial saul this
afternoon that they believed time last of
the trammsports had started for Cuba.
After all the delay of a ilay or two in the
