SANTIAGO DE CUBA, July IS, via
KINGSTON, July 10, n:5O A. M.-The
events preceding the hosting OF the
American flag over the Governors palace
here were full Of interest. Shortly after 6
o'clock on Monday morning Lieutenant
Crook, of General Skaters staff, entered
the city, and all the arms In the arsenal
were turned over to him. The work Of
removing the mines which INSTRUCTED
navigation at the entrance to the harbor
had been progressing all night. At about
o'clock General Toral, the Spanish com
mander, sent his sword to General SHAFT
ter. as evidence OF his submission, and at
S:i5 o'clock A. NJ. all the general officers
and their STATS assembled at General
Skaters headquarters. Each regiment
was drawn up along the crests OF the
heights.
General Shafter and his generals, with
mounted escort of 100 picked men OF the
Second Cavalry, then rode over our
trenches TO the open ground at the foot
of the hotel on the main road TO Santa
go. midway 10 the now-deserted Spanish
works. There they were met by General
Toral and his staff, all In full uniform
and mounted, and select detachment OF
Spanish troops. What followed took place
In full view OF our troops.

TO the quick notes OF Spanish march
played by the trumpeters, but 1t Impress

SPANISH FEEL THEIR DISGRACE.
Although no attempt was made TO hu-
initiate them, the Spanish soldiers seemed
TO feel their disgrace keenly, and scarcely
glanced at their conquerors as they pass
ed by
But this apparent depth OF feeling was
not displayed by the other regiments.
Without being sullen, the Spaniards APP
peared 10 be utterly indifferent TO the re-
verses suffered by the Spanish arms, ana
some OF them, when not under the eyes
of their officers, seemed to rejoice at the
prospect OF good food and an immediate
return to Spain.
TORAL SORELY DETECTED.
General Toral, throughout the cere-
mony. was sorey detected. Wien Gene
raj Shafter introduced him by name to
each member OF his staff, the Spanish
general appeared to be a very broken
man. He seems TO be about 60 years OF
age and OF frail constitution. though
stern resolution is shown in every feature.
The lines are strongly marked, and his
face Is deep-drawn, as II in physical
pain.
General Toral replied with an air OF
abstraction 10 the words addressed TO
him, and when he accompanied General
Shafter at the head OF the escort into
the city, for the American general TO
take formal possession OF Santiago, Gene
raj Toral spoke but few words. The APP
pealing faces OF the starving refugees
streaming back into the city did not move
him. nor did the groups OF Spanish SOL
diers lining the road and gazing curiously
at the fair-sknned, stalwart-framed con-
Querors.
A FORMIDABLE "ENTANGLEMENT."
only once did the faint shadow OF a
smile Turk about the corners OF his
mouth. This was when the cavalcade

necessary to storm the city.

FEASIBLE AND PRACTICAL.
These commissioners agree with all en-

as an engineering work; that it can be
safely and economically constructed on
