MODERN RIFLES.

Washington, July 3l.-rwenty thou,
sand Krag-Jorgensen rifles have
reached Newport News for shipment
to Puerto Rico for the use of the vol
unteers, who compose the mass of the
invading army. The rifles are the
modern magazine 3O-caliber that are
few guns that can compete with the
Mausers, employed by the Spaniards.
They will be substituted for the old
style 45-caliber Springfield rifles with
which the volunteers are now armed,
and will put the troops on an equality
with the regulars so far as equipment
is concerned. Smokeless powder cart
ridges accompany the new rifles.

NO SCARE IN COLOMBIA.
Presence of Italian Squadron at Car
tagena Causes No Worry.

Colon, Columbia, July 31.-The latest
advices from Cartagena indicate that
there is no scare whatever over the
presence of the Italian squadron at
that port The outward relations be-
tween the Italians and Colombians
continue TO be exceedingly amicable,
and "A similar remark applies to the
isthmus. In fact there is much APP
parent Indifference and sCepticism pre-
vailing there and here in regard to the
rumored intention of the Italian ad-
miral to lombard Cartagena. The
general opinion Of those best able to
Judge is that the indemnity in the
Cerruti case will be Immediately forth
coming if peremptorily demanded. A
sore point with the Colombian govern

Cleveland's alleged adjudication OF

mitted for arbitration. The Italian
third-class cruiser Calabria has FIN
ished coaling and is expected to leave
here for Mexico.

SPANISH ABUSES.
One by One They Are Being Wiped
Out I'm santiago.

Santiago, de Cuba, July 81. - Many
cases OF gross injustice are being dis
covered by the special commission
which is investigating the city prison.
Through the courtesy of Judge Advo-
cate GroSbeck | was allowed to ac-
company the commission. This ex-
animation of prison records and the
questioning of prisoners sheds strong
light on the peculiar manner in which
Spanish Justice" has been dispensed
here. Men and women accused or
such petty offenses as speaking disre-
specially of the Spanish government,
have been thrown into prison and
kept there for years without trial. All
record of the charges against them
has been lost, the witnesses have died,
and the victims have been detained,
although not sentenced. In many In
stances the present officials are igno-
rant of the crimes charged against the
prisoners, and the victims themselves
In some cases have forgotten the accu-
sations. Gen. Wood. as a result OF his
energetic administration as military
governor, has attained quiet and or
der throughout the city. Only one or
two arrests have been made during the
last twenty-four hours. A street
cleaning force Of $50 men has been or
ganized and Gen. Wood has been able
to get the men to work for their ra-
items. These men are putting the most
freQuented thOroughfares in good con-
ditiOn.

sued his orders in high-handed man
ner, but he didn't brighten the guards
at all.
A little later number of ladies of
the Catholic Truth society appeared,
and were told that they might enter by
the aforesaid captain, and were just
as soon stopped by the guards.
The captain became frantic. and
loudly proclaimed his authority, but To
no purpose.
The ladies were not permitted 70 en-
ter, but a few eluded the guard and
got in. The police captain soon after
took his squad away in great rage.
A great complaint was made. ana III
terested parties tried TO make 1t appear
that the Truth society had been I'M
Justly and unfairly treated. that the
guards were brutal. etc, etc.
As matter OF fact, the Red cross
society secured permission 10 enter
from Gen. Otis, and the Truth society
ladies could have done the same. but
did not, and then were offended be-
cause the orders were not broken for
them.
In the afternoon friends and rela-
tiveS were generally admitted. but not

To Reiinqaishing Control NJ tho
PHILIPPINES


Washington, July 31.-It was stated
IN nigh diplomatic quarter In such
manner as to give it semi-official as
pect, that II the control of the PhilIp-
pines was an Indispensable condition
iald down by the Americans in the
making OF peace that the Spanish gov
eminent would reject il and prefer to
continue the war. 1t was stated ut
the cabinet meeting that while the
Spanish government consider these
propositions had, yet they do not pre-
sent any insurmountable barrier to the
making of peace, and while there was
no certainty that Spain would accept
these terms and retire from Cuba and
Puerto Rico, there was every indica-
ton that she would yield rather than
continue the war But the future OF
the Philippines appears to be of as
much concern TO the Spanish govern
ment as 1t is 10 the American cabinet
just now, and there is even greater
insistence of the continuance of Span.
ISL sovereignty over the Philippines
than there is over the more valuable
Islands of Cuba and Puerto Rico. 1t is
said that the failure TO demand a
money indemnity will be appreciated
by the Spanish government as an act
of generosity, and that this will in
part offset the other terms laid down.
