A DIPLOMATIC ADVANTAGE
Soldiers on the Island Before
Peace Overtures Arrived
From Spain.
Believed Wilson's and Miles
Commands Have Joined
Forces.

WASHINGTON, July 28.-The war de.
partment has reconciled itself to the
summary change in its plans made by
General Miles when he landed at
Guanica instead Of on the northeast
coast of Porto Rico as previously agreed
upon. It is surmised that he was led
to make this change by reason Of the
condition of his lighters and rather
than wait q weeks delay he went
ahead and landed his troops at Guam.
lea. He avoided exposing his troops to
the hardships suffered by Skaters
men as they lay for so many days of
Santiago. 1t is also suggested that the
general has scored an important diplo-
matte advantage in setting foot upon
Porto Rican soil before the first over.
tures had been received from Spain
looking toward peace.
Believed Wilson Has Joined Miles.
While the war officials are reason.
ably certain that General Wilson with
that part Of the Porto Rico expedition
which sailed under his command from
Charleston has already formed juno.
ton with General Miles and his army
at Guanica bay, no information to that
effect has been received. General
Miles notified the war department that
he had sent vessel to meet General
Wilson's expedition and guide it to
Guanica. This was done because Gen.
eral Wilson expected when he left
Charleston to land at Point Farde. As
the plans Of General Miles were
changed after the departure Of General
Wilson it was necessary to intercept
him. 1t is not expected General Miles
will attempt ia bring on q general en-.
gagement before the latter part of next
week.

Thanks to the action of Emperor William
in inviting himself to the coronation of
young Queen Wilhelmina of Holland in
September next, the Dutch Government
has decided that there is to be no for
eign royalties present and no special en-
bassies from foreign powers, so that Pres
ident Mckinley win not be called upon to
appoint a special ambassador to represent
the United States on that occasion, as had
been announced The Dutch have always
been exceedingly apprehensive of German
designs upon their country and upon their
colonies, a jealousy which, it may be add
ed, Is shared by France, which naturally
would object to her hereditary enemy Sc
curing possession of the unriValed h5r-
bors the ports, the colonies and the trade
of the Netherlands.
When Emperor William therefore, an
nounced his intention of being at the cere-
mony, and actually went so far as the
hire one of the grandest palaces at The
Hague for the occasion, the Dutch at once
realized, that If present, he would over
shadow everybody else at the ceremony,
and, assuming a paternal role toward the
young Queen, would present himself 20 the
gaze Of the world as her protector II not
as her suzefain. 1t was necessary, there
fore, to take the bull by the horns and to
stop the matter a once. So the young
Queen has, in the swftest manner posi-
bic, addressed letters to Emperor William,
to Queen Victoria, who had designated the
Prince and Princess of Wales to represent
her. and to other foreign courts and gov
ernments requesting them neither to go to
the trouble of coming themselves nor of
sending special representatives. inasmuch
as in accordance with the wishes of her
subjects she had decided that the cere-
mony was to be conducted on the most
simple scale, just like the coronation Of
her father, and was to be purely and ex-
clusively national affair.
This snub to the Kaiser inflicted by the
girl Queen, who is known to cordial ols-
like him, a dislike so pronounced that she
resolutely declines to make use of the Ger
man language, although it is that of her
mother, has the effect of cutting away the
ground from under Williams feet in this
affair, and he cannot complain, since The
Queen is merely following the example of
the Gear, who at the time of his corona-
ton expressly stipulated that no foreign
ruler should be present, as he wished TO
alone receive on that solemn occasion the
homage of his subjects without being
called upon to share it with any other po-
tentate.
