Under the terms of the peace protocol
Spain is to evacuate Cuba and Porto Rico
immediately" but this is not to be in
terpreted literally. To arrange the details
of the evacuation and the displacement
of Spanish troops by American is no SIM
pie undertaking. How soon the soldiers
under Blanco are to be deported and
what, not being prisoners OF war, they
are entitled to carry away with them are
matters reserved for the decision of the
joint military commissions. The Ameri-
can commissioners have been named by
the President For Cuba Maj. Gen. Wade,
Rear Admiral Sampson and Maj. Gen.
Butler are selected. while Maj. Gen.
Brooke, Rear Admiral Schley and Brig.
Gen. Gordon are to serve in Porto Rico.
All these commissioners are to meet at
Washington and receive explicit instruc-
tons from the President While the prob
lem of civil government in the Spanish
West Indian possessions to be surrender
ed is wholly independent and receiving
the attention of the President and his adj
visers, the military commissions will be
charged with the provision for the mainte
nance Of law and order during the period
occupied by the evacuation. This will
obviously complicate their task.

insisted, telling Matthias, who took an ag-

wanted to make case against the Schad-
Iichs and if he was in the wrong they
could have redress through the regular
channels of the law. Mrs. Schadlich jerk
