Territory Toral Has Surrendered.

The territory surrendered TO us by
General Toral makes about 5, ZOO square
miles. The Spanish garrison of San
tiago is estimated at 10000 men. The
line begins at Ascerraderos, about fif-
teen miles west of Santiago harbor and
then runs due north about twenty-five
miles to Palmo Soriana, had the line
continued due north it would have
passed west of Holguin. thus taking the
Spanish garrison at that point Evil
IDENTIFY General Toral wished to avoid
the inclusion of Holguin, so the line
turns abruptly 70 the northeast of
Palmo and runs TO the coast town of
Boca del Sagua. The extreme length
of this surrendered tract is about 10
miles and the extreme width about fifty
miles, tapering TO a less width.

Signal Officer Sends the First News.

Washington, July 1.-THE first mes
sage conveying the news Of Santiagos
formal surrender was received at the
White House shortly before IL a. m.
just as the president was preparing to
go TO church About ) o'clock in the
afternoon General Shafter forwarded
a dispatch that told the story Of the
day. The first message did not come
from Shafter, but from the signal
officer who has before shown that he
was alert for vital events. The first
message was brief saying only that the
surrender had been accomplished; that
the Spanish troops marched out of the
trenches, one regiment at a time, stack
ing arms for delivery to the American
forces, and that the Spanish flag had
been hauled down. AS this news did not
come in the usual form as report from
General Shafter the fact was not bull
letined.
Talked of the Attack on Porto Rico
Late in the afternoon the official
dispatch given above came from Gen.
Shafter. 1t was very encoura ging from
a medical view in that it showed that
there was little sickness and scarcely
any yellow fever in Santiago but a
The president after his return from
church had a conference with Sec
retares Alger and Long and Captain
Crowninshield, chief of the bureau
of navigation and a member of the
naval war board. IT was stated after
the meeting that plans had been dis
cussed for an aggressive movement,
In which both army and navy will take

Santiago TO Porto Rico and that Cen
eral Stone and Colonel Michler. OF his
star, will leave from New York in a
day or two on the Resoute, to join the

Yellow Fever Situation at the Front.
The only disquieting information re-
ceived during the day was as TO the yell
low fever conditions at the front, and
this dispatch was modified in an en-
couraging way by General Skaters
later news. 1t was a dispatch from
Colonel Greenleaf, chief surgeon with
the army in Cuba, saying that six cen
new cases had appeared. While this
was regarded with some apprehension
by laymen the surgeon generals depart
ment considered the showing entirely
satisfactory. Colonel Alden, acting
surgeon general during the absence OF
General Sternberg. said a report of only
sixteen cases was an exceptionally good
showing. as the number must be taken

complished there will be better oppor-
tunity to get the men on high ground
and keep them away from infection.

Miles To Go to Porto Rico.

The Porto Rican expedition will be
commanded by General Miles in person,
though General Brooke. now in COM
mand at Camp Thomas. is expected to
be his main dependence. The size of
the expedition will depend upon Gen
Miles wishes, although it is believed
that $4,000 men will he sufficient for
the purpose. At San Juan the navy will
be OF greater assistance than il was at
Santiago. owing TO the possibility of
approaching the town more closely
without risking contact with mines
General Brooke is now on his way to
Washington by direction of Secretary
Alger so that he will be in a position
TO make his views known TO the depart
ment. The experience gained in dis
patching Skaters expedition, it is ex-
peeted, will aid the officials in their
determination TO make short work of

when the Spanish colors gave place over

and the capture of the island of Porto
Rico, unless peace soon intervenes.

and in none more than the heavy per
centage of loss through death, wounds
or sickness of the soldiers and sailors
engaged on both sides. Looking back
over the record Of these two weeks it is
seen that fine ironclad squadron have
been destroyed, that nearly 1000 Span
ish sailors have been drowned or klled
by shell and flame, and that an untold
number OF Spanish soldiers have died

thF ptople OF the eotttij OF large, II
Is very evident that POO congressman
had been hearing from their constitu,
ents the past two months; the OF who
voted against the resolution may have
heard from their districts, but if they
did they were of the opinion that the
people did not not know what was want
ed and therefore not entitled to any
consideration in the matter.
The impression has been given out
from Washington that a majority of the
congressman we've opposed to the an
neXation of the Hawaiian islands under
any consideration or condition, and no
matter what action might be taken in
the senate favorable to the acquisition
of the territory contained in the Pacific
group, the house would o o settle the
question by refusing to entertain any
measure looking to a ratification of the
senate's action. Judging from yester-
days action the house has only been
waiting for an opportunity to do its part
in carrying out the wishes of a majority
of the people.
The resolution will 10Y go to the sen
ate for the consideration of that body,
and if the senators are wise they will
pass it without much delay. AS a ma
jority of the members are in favor of
annexation there will probably be less
talk than usually in that branch of con-
gress over matters of Importance, and
annexation will be assured I'm a short
time.

Control OF the Philippines.

1t is an old saying that ''where there
is smoke there must be some fire." and
the constant reiteration by foreign cor
respondents of papers of reliability,
that this or that European nation in
tends to take the initiative in settling
the control of the Philippine islands
after Spain has been driven out, gives
foundation for the belief that a move of
that kind is on foot among the continen-
tai powers. Nothing may result from
this talk, and it would be better for .he
powers if nothing does, but one thing is
certain, the tone of the debates in con
gress indicates that any and all med
| ding with the affairs of the United
| States will be resented in a vigorous
manner.
The taking of the Philippine islands
will virtually introduce a new and I'M
known quantity into the questions con
corning the far east, which have here
tofore been managed by European ma
lions without consultation with Ameri-
can governments. This country one
interested in the islands bordering on
the Asiatic coast of the Pacific will nee
essarily limit the e~ncroachments upon
coveted territory, and while no inter-
ference on the part Of the United States
,rn,,1I pocy1t 90 lpnp NO tha islands yvnrn
not molested, there would always be the
menace of the stars and stripes in the
eastern question. Another matter
which causes uneaSiness is the fear
that the American principle of protec-
ton will be extended to the islands
and a consequent loss of trade. AL
ready French and German papers are
limiting that England would not be so
friendly if it were understood that the
ports of the islands which may fall into
the hands of the United States would no
longer be free from tariffs on goods
from other countries. These matters
all enter into the calculations of the
jealous statesmen of the powers, and
If they can, to use a western expression,
run a bluff on America they will GER
tainly do it. E
The latest scheme for the control of
the Philippines is a protectorate to be
managed jointly, or if that does not
meet with the unqualified approval of
the nations considering themselves in
terested, under the control of Great
Britain, which shall guarantee free
ports for all m Perhaps the
thought has not occurred to the would
be protectors of the islands that the
United States has a long bill of damages
against Spain, and to attempt to pre-
vent collection might result in a general
stirring up of the animals in the worlds
menagerie.
However much the desire to interfere
may exist. it is hardly possible that any
steps will be taken by European powers
w Uh"o cHu ooloie Peaoe HeSoClauiols Ut
gin between Spain and this country. BY
that time congress will undoubtedly have
perfected all details concerning the dis
position of the islands and those plans
may possibly involve such conditions
that foreign countries will conclude that
the easiest way out of trouble will be
not to begin it.
