NOTHING SAID TO GERMANY YET.

Washington, July 14-It can be stated posi-
lively that no representations have yet been
made to the German Government respecting the
action Of the German naval commanders in the
Philippines 1t Is the opinion Of officials OF the
State Department that Admiral Dewey has so
conducted himself in dealing with the foreign
men-of-war in the Philippines as TO leave no
room for suggestion or representation on the
part Of the State Department, and so long as
Il is state OF affairs continues ii is not likely
that there will be any interference with this

Washington. July 14.-santiago's surrender,
constituting the first cession Of any considerable
extent OF Spanish territory to the United States
since the war began. although foregone con-
clusion for several days past, has been preceded
by intense anxiety In Washington. eliminating
to-day in the positive announcement by the
authorities at the War Department that an as
sault would be made by noon unless the capitu-

the morning General Shafter was in almost con-
slant communication with the War Department

Spanish commander had accepted the terms

TO Spain Of the Spanish forces, fears Of further

In many minds as to the frank sincerity of Cen
eral Toral whose conduct for some time had
served to create the impression that he was
leaving nothing undone to gain time. perhaps
with some Interior motive. The first dispatch
from General Shafter this morning announcing
that Toral had appointed commissioners ar
range terms and had asked for similar Ameri-
can commissioners at first interpreted as
another subterfuge to postpone decision and
open the way to further exasperating negota-

all the civilian officials; but Adtutant- General
Corbin. with a more thorough appreciation Of
military amenities. was positive that the Span
ish commander had actually agreed to surren-
der upon the terms Of General Skaters ulti-
matum OF yesterday, and he made this state
ment:
"A commission Of surrender does not imply
delay. 1t means virtual II not actual surrender;
