NOT EXPECTING PEACE SOON.
Two Northwestern Senators Do No,
Think Spain is Ready to Yield.


Senator Warren, who was at the War
Department today, said he did not see how
any one could look for peace as long as the
Spanish government kept up the policy of
deceiving the people. He could not see
what Sagasta hoped to gain by such a
policy, but it was evident that he was keep
ing it up, and surely peace could not be
expected until the Spanish people had their
eyes opened and a public sentiment had
been aroused
IF 1t were not for the deception being
practiced by Sagasta and his associates in
the government" the senator said, there
would undoubtedly be a public sentiment
In Spain NOW In favor Of peace upon terms
that are possible. AS 1t is, the war must
be pressed on, as it is being, with vigor
until they come to their senses I do not
believe that a foot Of territory taken by
us can ever be returned to Spain. If such
restoration is to be made. I. for one, want
nothing to do with it. If sentiments Of hu-
nanity demand that we should free Cuba
from Spanish rule, the demand is equally
strong that we should free every colony of
Spain that comes under our influence. I
think Spain must realize that this is to be
done before we can expect peace"
Senator Mcbride of Oregon said to a
Star reporter that In his opinion, there
was no use talking Of peace now. What
We want to talk about, he said, In the vigor-
Gus prosecution of the war. The surest
way to secure peace Is to dismiss all
thought of anything but how to make
Spain feel the power of our arms 1t is
evident that the administr tra ton under
stands the situation. The steps that are
now being taken are in the line Of war,
not of peace, and by such means the war
will be ended sooner than it would be by
idle talk of peace. The Spanish have not
fully learned their lesson The ques-
t1on of terms OF settlement is still of the
future. The most Troublesome thing ap-
parently is going to be to dispose of the
Philppine question. do not beaieve those
Islands Will be returned to Spain. but how
we are to dispose OF them may be diff

CAIMANERA.s FLAG DOWN,
Total Spanish Force There and at

Camp McCalla, July 1S, pm, via Playa
del Este, Guantanamo Bay.-A launch
from the Marblehead went up the bay this
afternoon to Vertcaya del Toro, opposite
Caimanera, and gave formal notice to the
Spanish commander of the surrender of
General ToraPs troops, together with the
conditions of the capitulation of Santiago.
A limited time was fixed for hauling down
the Spanish flag over Caimapera
The American officer also gave notice that
if the Spanish gunboat Sandoval was dis
abled in any way, or If any arms, ammu-
milton, public buildings or barracks at
Caimanera or Guantanamo were destroyed,
the Spaniards would not be treated as
prisoners CT war. The flag was hauled
down this afternoon.
From Spanish sources 1t is learned that
the total force in Guantanamo and Caima-
nera is about 5000, of which number, how
ever, only about 1900 are fit for service,
the others being disabled by sickness or
wounded.
Tomorrow steps will be taken for a for
NAL surrender. What disposition will be
made of the prisoners has not yet been
determined because of the presence of yell
low fever among them.
A rigid quarantine will be maintained;
and it Is probable that transports for the
removal of the prisoners will be sent up the
bay and loaded there, instead of having
the prisoners marched down here.

TO EXAMINE VOLUNTEERS.
Those Unfit for Service VIII BE Dis
charged From the Army.

Information las reached the War De-
pc rtment that notwithstanding the medical
examination prior to muster in. men had
been enlisted in the volunteer army who
should have been rejected at that exam
ination as unfit for military service. The
attention of chief surgeons has been di-
rected to this subject as one of great i'm
portance. and they have been instructed to
Institute systematic inquiry with view to
eIimin ating auch men. A board of medical
officers will be appointed in each division
of the army to carefully examine and make
recommend alton in each of the cases SUBJ
rlstted by regimental medical officers. De-
rartmental and corps commanders have
been authorized to order discharges on cer-
tficates OF disability. and other arrange
nients have been made to rid the army OF

via Kingston, Jamaica, July 10, 9:10 a.m.-
The question has arisen between the army
and navy officials as to the disposition
to be made of the half a dozen large Span
ish merchant steamers which were in the
harbor of Santiago at the time of the sur
render.
Rear Admiral Sampson arrived in the
city today on the Vixen and claimed the
steamers were prizes of the navy. He
also was desirous of placing prize crews
on board of them.
Gen. Shafter however. refused to recog-
nize Admiral Sambsons claims. He de-
clared the steamers with everything else
in Santiago had surrendered to him. The
question. apparently, is still undecided
But at any rate, the admiral returned to
his flagship without having distributed
prize crews among the merchantmen, and
the latter are still in possession of the
army.

Strenuous efforts to prevent the spread of
infectious diseases among the American
troops in front of Santiago de Cuba were
made so soon as the city surrendered, and
for the past thirty-six hours our soldiers
nave been sent as rapidly as possible to
the hills north Of the city, where new
camps have been established.
Everything possible is being done to I'M
prove tho sanitary conditions of the camps,
especially in the case of troops which are
expected to take part in the expedition to
Porto Rico.

are not in the slightest infected will be
allowed to go to Porto Rico.

to healthier localities and the extra pre-
cautions which are being taken

Bird Shooting Near Cities.

A good many shooters are puzzled to
know how they can get practice for bird
shooting near the cities during close sea-
sons without paying for practice at the
traps.
There are several kinds Of birds which
fly In such manner as to require skill in
the killing and are not protected by law at
any time. OF course a small gauge gun
Is best for such practice, as it takes more
skill to kill with 1t than with big gun.
and the more skill required the better the
practice.
The kingfsher is rapidly darting flier,
rather shy and hard to kill. With a 90
gauge gun shooters abilities would be
we'll tested.
The English sparrow, If put up badly
scared, will give considerable sport, and
the man who can get three with two shots
out of a small flying flock may regard
himself as good shot. OF course man
wouldn't aim at the center of the flock
and pull. He aims at particular birds.
and II he misses the ones aimed at he calls
the shot miss. Red winged and crow
blackbirds fly rapidly when their nests are
not near by. They are not protected and
may be found In partly wooded pastures.
Some sportsmen may object to this as
being useless slaughter and 1t would be II
the birds were thrown away, but the
sportsman would not throw them AWAY.
