One of Them Tells what They are Doing
In camp.
MANILA, Oct. 13, 1898.
ED. TIMEs-MoUNTAINEER:
Having little leisure time 1 will
tell you something OF The Dalles boys
who are here with Co. L.
They are all we'll except Elton, who
is in the brigade hospital. Walter
Dickey was sent home three weeks
ago sick. and we all regretted to see
him go.
Only one of our boys, Will Fields,
has died. and in his death we lost a
good and kind comrade. He was a
sacrifice to his country, while serving
it truly and faithfully, and we all
mourn his death for we liked him we'll.
Ed. Lemison received the Times
Mountaineer by last mail. 1t was
passed from one to the other of The
Dalies boys till all had read it through
and through.
For all of Co. l., I want to thank
The Dalles and Hood River ladies for
the toilet articles they sent US. They
were distributed among the whole
regiment.
There are lots of reports floating
arou:d about when we will start home,
and all of US expect to eat turkey at
home during the holidays, and it
makes US feel good for camp life gets
monotonous in this heathen place.
1t gets so hot here that fellow has
no energy to do anything during the
day, but it gets quite pleasant at night.
We sleep in hammecks, and by 8 or
9 O'Clock it gets cool. enough so that
we sleep pretty welftill morning.
The natives are an ignorant, down
trodden race, and do not seem to un-
derstand our ways. They are lazy
SEQ, and have but little needs. Don't
ever speak of a goodlooking Filipino.
1 have never seen one, they are all
ugly. ..ss+
There have been "a good many re-
ports as to who were first in Manila.
but it is matter of fact that the first
ard second hattalie3s of sshe Second
Oregon were the first TO enter the
walled city, march to the Spanish
headquarters and receive the surren-
der of the Spanish army. We are all
we'll satisfied with the part we were
allowed to take in the capture of the
city.
AS to our fare here we have no COM
plant to make, but we were nearly
starved on the ships coming over, and
there was no excuse for it, as there
was plenty of supplies on board, and
they let the vegetables and meat spoil
that should haye been given us while
it was good. The fruit put on at San
Francisco and Honolulu was used by
the officers and those who had a
'stand in" Too much cannot be said
about that memorable trip, and it will 1
never be forgotten by those who made |
it. In our quarters here we fare first |
rate by each man contributing three |
dollars a month to the ''mess fund"
There is report here that we will |
not hold the Philippines and it suits
the soldiers for all of us are anxious to
get away from here. There are about |
Z. 800 soldiers on the sick list, most of |
whom are in the hospitals, but there
is not much said about it.

SPAIN ACCEPTED
THE INEVITABLE.
surreHasrs the Philippine
and Sulu Islands.

PARIS, Nov. % The two peace
commissions were in seperate session
all this morning. The joint commits
sion met at 2o'clock this afternoon,
| and the Spanish commissioners i'm.
mediately announced their acceptance
of the American demands. The
Spanish acceptance was made verbally.
When the members of the two COM
missions were seated, Rios, president
of the Spanish commission handed the
Spanish reply to Ferguson, the Span
ish interpreter, attached to the United
Safes peace commission. The answer
of the Spauiards was short, and less
that 10 minutes were consumed in rem
dering it into English for the Amer
leans. The Spanish commissioners
announced that they were authorized
by their government to reply that the
American propositions were inadmis-
sible on legal principles. but that all
diplomatic resources 'were exhausted,
and the Spanish commission was now
asked to accept or reject the American
proposition. Spain, inspired by
reasons of patriotism and humanity
and to avoid the horrors of war, resigns
herself to the power of the victor. She
accepts the offered conditions in order
to conclude treaty of peace. Through
out tine controversy Spain had the
strongest arguments, and as between
positions so Numerically opposed, the
American offer of s2O, 900, 900 was not
a fair sum. Nevertheless, the reply
continued, Spian desired to avoid any
further effusion- of blood and further
disorder, and concluded to accept the
American offer unconditionally ard
thus bow to the superior power of the
victor. The secretaries were then
ordered to prepare, treaty articles,
EN- bOdying the cession of Cuba and
Porto Rico and the Philippines and
payment by the United States of $40
100000, for submission to a meeting
which will be held Wednesday next.
The American demands include the
of the whole of the Phil
ippine and Sulu groups for 500, ,0OO, 900.
and it is also understood the United
States will purchase the Caroline
group. The question of the debt of |
Cuba is Left unsettled. s=s.s---ss..s--

the American military commander, on
the subject of Spanish prisoners in the
hands of the insurgents. He has de-

| BOSTON, Nov. 28.-Tugs returning
to this city at noon, after tour of the
har Dor, report % vessels of all sizes
ashore or sunk in or near Boston har-
Dor. Seven large schooners and two
Baltimore canal barges are complete
ly wrecked, and it is estimated that 30
lives have been lost. Only one body
has been recovered. More than a
dozen are reported in the surf at Hull,
and efforts are being made to recover
them.
Daylight this morning revealed the
awful havoc of the storm in Boston
harbor. Not since 1852 have the ele-
ments caused such destruction OF prop
erty and loss of life so near the city.
Tugs sent out to explore the harbor
found on every shoal and reef some
ice.covered vessel being dashed to
pieces by tho waves. The raging
waters thus far prevent any attempt
to recover the bodies seen floating
among the debris, and it may be days
before an accurate list of those can be
obtained,

The Rev. T. I. Bell, a highly es

Stuart.s Dyspepsia Tables is a
remarkable remedy, not only because
it is certain cure for all forms of in
digestion, but because it seems to act
AS thoroughly in all chronic cases OF

Indigestion or biliousness, A person

This is the secret of the success of

| NEW YORK, Nov. PA dispatch to
the Herald from Havana says:
Domingo Mendez Capote. late vice
president of the Cuban republic,
and now president of the executive
commission, has expressed his belief
that the future of Cuba would newt
ably be annexation to the United
| States This he said was the natural
| outcome of recent events, but he
denied that Cuban leaders have that
aspiration. The independence which
so long animated the Cuban people is
to be temporarily satisfied. They wish
for short period at least to see their
own flag waving over "Free Cuba"
They recognize that annexation will
come, and that shortly and by the
unanimous voice of the Cuban people
themselves, bat they desire to see the
cause for which they had fought
crowned with the success it deserves.
"The provisional government has
been dissolved he said in reply to a
question, and the sole Cuban authority
now existing is the general assembly
OF the army. That assembly has
elected my colleagues and myself to
carry on the general business during
its adjournment. and principally to
take measures preparatory to disband-
ing the army

PROSPECTIVE MILLING INDUSTRY
Big Thing for Hood River Is on
the Wav.

the Way.
That Hood River Is soon to have
one of the biggest numbering mills on
the coast is now almost an assured
fact. Capt. P. S. Davidson, who has
a mill at La Crosse, Wis, that has a
capacity of 100000 feet a day, has been
looking at Hood River with the idea
of moving his mill to that place and
has about perfected arrangements by
which the mill will be located there.
If Capt. Davidson can secure certain
franchises on Hood river, by which he
can float logs down the stream. he will
erect a mill in the town of Hood River
that will be one of the leading milling
industries on the coast, 1t will en-
ploy a large number of men, besides
will turn out an immense quantity of
lumber.
The timber belt on the river is said
to be almost unexhaustable, at least is
sufficient to supply such a mill as
Capt. Davidson proposes to erect, for
MANY wears.
