and the Eleventh infantry moved in

Spanish troops from the abandoned

Areicibo, whence they will reach San
Juan by railroad as soon as transporta-
tion is available. They could not enter
the city before ewing to its crowded
condition. u
On Wednesday the Spaniards will
evacuate the island Of Viequez, where
a company Of American troops, dis.
patched from General Grants brigade
has been landed. The Spanish troops
from the island Of Viequez will remain
at Humacao until the Spanish fall back

the sailing from Spain Of two trans

and also that 400 Spanish soldiers viii
sail from here tomorrow on transport
which is expected from Cuba. The de.
parting troops consist Of 200 sick men

The meeting OF the commissioners
was entirely without friction, and 1t
was owing to the good feeling prevail
ing between our soldiers and those of
Spain that it was decided to allow the
company of Americans to land at the
island Of Viequez before tho Spanish
left.
1t has been decided to allow Amer.
leans to enter the Spanish lines and
vice versa, in pursuit OF marauders.
This obliterates the neutral zone and il
is believed it will result in the com.
plete suppression Of disorders at
Utuado and other places in the in.
terror, and afford protection to native
and Spanish residents alike.
In spite Of the fact that some Of
them have been disillusioned, the in
aux of American promoters continues.
Most Of them are at Ponce and unable
to reach San Juan, owing to the mill.
tary regulations. An agent Of the
American Sugar Refining company il
here and many others are seeking bus.
mess opportunities, franchises and
concessions. All Of them are fretting
over the unavoidable delay.
The condition of the troops on the
island is net improving. Almost 1900
men have reported sick. General
Brooke is doing all in his power to i'm
prove the condition Of the soldiers and
afford them every comfort possible.
He has ordered every military tent on
the island to be fitted with flooring.
