understand the governor has given his
sanction to this plan, and If 1t Is carried
out will be saIutory.
The local detachment of Units1 States
naval reserves, in fatigue uniform and
dragging their new 1-pounder rapid-h
gun, are now at the scene OF the trouble,
together with the Light Infantry and sew
eral hundred armed citizens. But there is
nothing to shoot at, the negroes having dis
appeared.
The committee of twenty-five went into
session about 1 O'Clock to devise means of
preserving order. Several propositions were
put forward, but the plan which seems to
meet with most favor Is the appointment
of a committee of safety, to consist of six
or ten men, who will have supreme charge
of the city, superseding the mayor and all
others. These men would comprise the
most conservative citizens. The realization
is row dawning upon the community that
the reckless white man is as much a source
of danger as the negro to the peace of
Wilmington, if not more So
Efforts Will be made to hold the reckless
in check. The reinforcements sent from
Goldsboro' have been turned back after
consultation. All was quiet on the firing
line at 1:30 o'clock.
Eight Negroes Killed.
Between 1 o'clock and 2 o'clock there
were several skirmishes. The total casual
ties at o'clock were: Eight negroes kill
ed, two wounded. Three white men wound
ed-Mayo, Chadwick and Piner. Mayo not
dead, but shot through the lungs. About
80 O'Clock pm. two white men passing a
house were fired upon. A detachment i'm
mediately surrounded the house and took
away five negroes. 1t was at first proposed
to kill them on the spot, but finally decided
to put them in Jail. Another negro in the
house broke and ran. but after proceeding
half a square was shot dead. The negro
who shot Mayo was recognized, 1t was
claimed, and a detachment found him at
his house. He was riddled and left dead.
Letter Came Too Late.
Colonel Waddell, chairman of the commit
tee of twenty-five, received at noon today
the following letter:
We, the colored citizens to whom was
referred the matter of the expulsion from
this community of the person and press of
A. l.. Manly. beg most respectfully to say
that we are in no wise responsible for, nor

satisfactory at Washington. as calculated
to breed misunderstanding. and, if left un-
challenged, as holding exactly thu possibili-
ties of dissension which 1t is now sought to
Introduce into the negotiations here.
The federal authorities, therefore, on or
about August 10. addressed to NJ. Cam
bon a communication, pointing out that,
while the foregoing utterances from Mad
rid were understood ny him to convey
Srain's acceptance of the terms of peace,
the acceptance was not entirely explicit,
and that the most direct and certain way
of avoiding msunderstandings was to en-
body in a protocol the terms on which the
negotiations for peace were TO be under
taken.
Along with this note was sent to NJ Cam
bon a protocol, embo1ying the precise
terms rendered to Spain in the American
communication of about July 30 lmme-
diately upon receiving Their. NJ. Cannon
transmitted the protocol II Madrid. accom-
panied by m assage from himself clearly
showing that the French an,hassadoi knew

gard Spain's response to the peace terms
as satisfactory or acceptable.
NJ. Cambon's Message to Spain.
NJ Cambon's message to Spain was as
follows:
The federal government has decided to
state precisely in a protocol the basis upon
which the peace negotiations must, in their
judgment be entered upon. herewith senu
this document
This message went to Spain about August
10. Two days later NJ. Cambon notified
Judge Day that he had just received tel
egram, dated al Madrid August r. in which
Duke Almodovar del Rio the Spanish minis
ter of foreign affairs, announced that the
Spanish government. by order of the queen
regent. had conferred upon him (M. Cam
bon) full powers to sign without other for
malty the protocol drawn between NJ Cam
bon and Judge Day.
Indemnity Said to BE Refused.
AS for Spains demands of Friday last
for the release of her imprisoned garrison
at Manila, for the return to her of the Gus
toms collected by the Americans and for in
demnity from the United States for the de-
tention of her soldiers it is understood that
the American rejoinder today included all
ton of Manila was a military capituiauon,
and that the possession by the Americans
was military occupation, which warranted
the United States in the collection of du
ties and the administration of government,
and placed them under obligations to pre-
serve order and exercise all the functions
of control.
Spains contention that the capitulation
was invalid because occurring after the ceS
Sation of hOStilities is doubtless held to dis
appear in her subsequent contention that
it became referable to the protocol. which
provides for the conditions following cap
itulation and now existing.
