THREE orAiSior
 PRISONERS RELEASED.
They Will Return to Spain at Once, but eervera win Not Go Until
 All His Men Can Depart.

Washington, Aug I9.-Admiral Ger vera will not return to Spain for the present. The reports from Annapolis stating he would leave for Washington are said to be due to misapprehension. The admiral has made no application to leave, and it is the belief he will be the last of the Spanish prisoners to go home, as he has shown 8 fatherly regard for all the officers and men, and apneaTS to be desirous of seeing them on the4r N ay homeward before he leaves. The navy department has not taken up the ques- tion of the final disposition of Spanish prisoners, although it has passed upon one or two special cases, which circum- stances made speedy action advisable.
 One of these was the case of Dr. Ju- rada, the venerable Spanish naval sur geon, held with the other Spanish pris- oners at Annapolis. Thedoctors report ed that Dr. Jurada was very feeble, and that while he may be able to reach Spain, if released now, he would not be able to make the trip month hence. The navy department accordingly di- rected his release, and the Spanish chap. lain will be allowed to accompany Df. Jurada to Spain.
 The case of Captain Moreu, com mander of one of the cruisers of Ger vera's fleet also received special action of the department. It appears that Captain Moreu is not only an officer of the navy, but is member of the Span- ish parliament, and with the prospect that parliament would reassemble at an early day, Captain Moreu is desirous of returning to Spain to participate in the sessions of parliament h particular he expressed the desire of telling the Span- ish parliament of the generous treat ment accorded him and all other Span ish prisoners by the United States offici- als here. It is felt such statement from Captain Moreu could but have 8 salutary effect, and his release was ac- cordingly ordered.

Dewey and Merritt Will Take Charge of Manila, and Military Rules
 Must Be Kept by All.
THE GERMAN INCIDENT
 FAR OVERSTRETCHED.
Washington Authorities Do Not Re gard the Taking Away of Angusti Breach of Neutrality
 Regulations.

Washington, Aug. 19.-The two American commanders at Manila, Ad- miral Dewey and Major General Mer- ritt, united in $ joint dispatch which was received here late Wednesday after- noon, asking for instructions as to the manner of dealing with the various ele. ments, particularly the insurgents, now that the city is occupied by the Amer. can forces. After conference at the White House instructions were sent to the two American commanders. The text of the request for instructions and the answer was not made public, but Secretary Alger summed up the instruc. tions substantially as follows:
 1.-The instructions are to enforce lay. and order, and to treat all lawabiding citizens alike
 The instructions are practically the same as those sent to General Lawton, which specifically states that the insur- gents must recognize the military oecu- patton and authority of the United States and the cessation of hostilities proclaimed by this government It had been thought in some quarters here that the showing heretofore made by the in- surgents would lead to their receiving q certain amount of recognition, in the way of joint action between the United States forces and those of the insur-  gents, when the city was occupied. But the instructions sent are based on occu. patien by the United States alone, and as high administration official summed up the situation: "There shall be no joint action except between Merritt and Dewey. They will maintain law and order and will treat insurgents and Spaniards alike, requiring all to observe peace and order
 It was noted that neither the first dis. patch of Admiral Dewey, nor the joint dispatch of Dewey and Merritt made any reference whatever to the part which the German cruiser Kaiserin Au- gusta took in removing Captain General Augusti from Manila to Hong Kong From this officials believe that the Am erican commanders at Manila do not at tach serious signitianca 10 the course of the German naval authorities. The in- cident continues 10 cause some irritation here, but itis practically certain that no official cogni2ance will be taken of it. There is no disposition in any official quarter at present to carry the incident to the point of considering it breach of neutrality.
 The war department has issued regu. ations for the guidance of officers con cerned in the collection of duties on inn ports, taxes and other charges and ex- actions to be collected as a military con- tribution at ports and places in the pos session of, or under the control of the forces of the United States in the Philippines The regulations are sub- stantially the same as were recently put into operation in Cuba. Rates of duty differ in many important particulars.

PROPOSE TO IHvESTlGA1 EALGER
PICKWICKIAN PLAN OF THE
PRESIDENT.
Under What Conditions Commits
sion Might Be Appointed to Over
haul the War Department.

Washington, Sept. 9.-The cabinet
meeting today was protracted, lasting
two hours and a quarter, although
only Secretaries. Gage and Wilson and
Postmaster General Smith were with
the president The appointment of
Senator Gray as peace commissioner
was first considered, and met with
such approval that the formal an
nouncement of the choice was made.
The question of investigating the ad-
ministration of the war department
and the appointment of commissioners
TO conduct the investigation was gone
over Whether the president will di-
rect the investigation depends upon
his ability to find men for the COM
mission in whom there viii be such
universal approval that their verdict
will be accepted in advance as a just
determination Of the subject. If such
men can be found. then the president
will name them and order the investi-
CATION; il they cannot be found, then
the investigation viii not occur.
1t is felt to be essential as a pre-
requisite to the commissioner that a
membership shall be secured which
will command general approval.
Some names were mentioned, but q
conclusion was not reached on any of
them. The Miles-Alger controversy,
which is distinct from the inquiry into
the war department. was not referred
to at the cabinet meeting.

TERROR INSPIRED BY WHITEClPS
NEGROES RUN OUT OF NORTH
ERIN TEXAS.
Texarkana Alarmed Over the Influx
of Idle Negroes In the City-vigi-
lance Committees Organizing.

Texarkana. Ark. Sept. 9.-Texar-
kama is in state of alarm over the
large number of idle negroes who
throng the town, and the citizens are
organizing vigilance committees for the
protection of their property. The un-
usual influx of negroes. recently is due
to the operations of NVhitecaps in Ii
tus, Cass, Hopkins and other coupties
in the cotton district of North Texas.
whence thousands of negroes have fed
on account of notices being posted and
in some cases violence being used TO
run them out These. people being run
out of the cotton fields have sought
refuge in the towns, and Texarkana has
been the refuge of large number. a
trustworthy colored man from Titus
county says that while a number oil
his race were at work in field mob
of Whitecaps concealed in q fence
corner opened fire on them. The ne
groes fled, leaving three of their num-
Der behind, wounded and perhaps
killed They had been warned to leave
the county and had paid no attention
10 the warning. Other similar Incl
dents are reported by incoming negroes.
In some localities in Titus county,
which were formerly densely populat-
ed by negroes. not colored man, wo-
man or child remains, according to the
stories told by those who have reached
this place.
