Leaves Santiago to Have a Conference

News From Santiago,

Santiago, July 21.-General Garcia has
eft the camp Of the Cuban army, to the
lorth Of the city, and has started west
ward with a detachment of picked men
20 meet and confer with General Gomez.
Garcia makes no secret of his resent
ment over General Skaters course of
action since the surrender of Santiago,
IND his coming conference with the Gu
'an commander in chief Is therefore re-
Earded as having a good deal of impor-
ance.
He Is especially dissatisfied over the
act that Cuban soldiers are not permit
ted to enter the city of Santiago and
Will not be permitted until the Spanish
soldiers are deported. The danger of
clash is considered too great.
General McKibben, military governor
If Santiago, has established a thorough
system of patrolling the city. A num-
Der of Cuban insurgents have entered
It disguised as refugees and have tried
to provoke the Spaniards to street riots.
Wherever detected the Cubans have
been arrested and turned over to the
civil authorities. This has intensified
the feeling in the insurgent camp that
the Americans are going to ignore them
In settling the future form of govern
ment for Cuba.
The Spanish soldiers plundered many
Of the business houses the day before
the surrender. The merchants are still
in much alarm from the Spanish SOL
diers and the proving insurgents and
have asked General McKibben to post
guards in front of their stores.
Hundreds of American and Spanish
soldiers who but a few days ago We're
shooting at each other crowd the streets
Of Santiago. meeting and mixing on the
most friendly terms. A general feeling
Of good fellowship is evidenced every
where, victors and vanquished appar-
emily being equally rejoiced that the
strife and bloodshed are over and that
the horrors of the siege are ended.
Many stores Open.
Quaint stores, with gaudy displays of
wares, are opening rapidly and the
storekeepers eagerly accept American
money and courteously receive Ameri-
can customers. The narrow, cobble
paved streets, grilling in the fierce sun
shine, are crowded from morning till
night by chattering groups of uniform
ed Spanish soldiers and crowds of
laughing, rollicking men belonging to
General Skaters army.
Great barge loads of provisions and
supplies have been going to the wharfs
all day from the Red Cross steamer
State of Texas and the United States
army supply ships, and there is evil
dence that privation is rapidly dlsap-
pearing. Along the water 'front.' under
every awning, dozens of women ana
children may be seen munching Ameri-
can hard tack, and food Is being dis
tributed very rapidly about the plaza
facing the palace, and in numerous airy
cafes the officers Of the opposing armies
lounged through the day. The Amerl-
cans are buying swords, medals and but
tons from their late foes, and all talk
cheerily whenever an interpreter can BIZ

About 1000 Spanish troops still re-
