Spanish Bullets,

Newport News, Va, July 26.-The
transport Hudson, from Santiago, ar
rived in Hampton Roads yesterday.
From the foremost floated a yellow
flag, indicating sickness on board. Or.
Pettus, the national quarantine officer,
boarded the vessel as soon as she cast
anchor, and when he came ashore 1t
was learned that he did not feel justi-
fed in permitting all on board to land.
The Hudson carries number of sick
and wounded soldiers from Santiago.
The bodies of Captain Capron and
Sergeant Hamilton Fish are on the
ship, bound north for interment. 1t is

isued his first call for volunteers an
army of 2Gl.40O men have been recruit
ed. mustered, equipped and placed in
the field. an achievement that has
elicted surprise and admiration from
the best informed military authorities
of Europe.
The personnel of the army Is far su-
perior to that Of any body of men
hitherto raised for military purposes by
the United States Every man recruit
ed, whether for the regular or for the
volunteer army, has undergone care
ful physical examination conducted by
disinterested aud competent officers.
AS a general preparation. therefore, the
army Is physically without flaw.
Quite naturally, the requirements! for
the regular service are more rigid than
those for the volunteers, because re-
cruits for the regular army, being con-
sidered merely as individuals, are
Obliged to undergo a more severe ex-
animation than the volunteers. many
of whom are taken into the service as
organizations. The statement indicates
that only one in four applicants for ad-
mission to the regular army was ac-
cepted by the mastering officers and
medical examiners In this way a no.
tably high class of men have been Sc
cured for the army.
Of the 2l6.50O volunteers authorized
by congress. 212. 900 have been placed in
the field nearly all of them fully equip
ped. In few days the entire volunteer
army will be thoroughly organized into
regiments. brigades, divisions and
army corps. The aptitude for military
discipline and instructions which the
volunteers have evinced. has created
surprise among the representatives of
foreign governments with the United
States army. They agree that the
Americans are the finest soldiers in the
world

of preparing rising. The authorities
assert that the agitation has been eff

General Shafter Says Garcia Did Not

rendcr-Forty Cubans Released from

Santiago de Cuba. July 26-Every-
thing here is peaceful. The 1000 Span

surrendeEsI On Sunday to Lieutenant
Mtley, and yesterday pack trains with
provisions were sent them. The only
others included In the capitulation are
1000 troops at Baracoa and 1000 at
Sagua. They have not yet been turned
over. but they are nowhere in General
Garcia's vicinity. He is at Jiguany. and
reached there without encounterinG
any Spaniards. General Shafter au-
thorizes an absolute contradiction OF
the report that Garcia encountered a
force of Spaniards who were returning
to Santiago to surrender and was de-
feated by them. Colonel Ezra p. Ewers,
or the Ninth infantry, acting for Cen
eral Shafter, will receive the formal
surrender of Guantanamo
On Sunday General Shafter released
40 Cubans who had been confined in
The local Jail on political charges. In
deed. some of them were confined with
out charges of any character, others
on the most trivial pretexts and yet
others solely because Of sympathy with
the insurgent cause. The Jail is still
filled with many whose crimes and sem
tences are not on record and are alb
solutely unknown. 80 far as has yet
been ascertained. A general investiga-
tion has been ordered Immediately.
American newspapers which have ar
rived here contain articles written ap-
parently under a misapprehenson of
the facts regarding the conduct of the
campaign and the dictation of the
terms Of surrender. General Miles was
here simply as visitor and adviser.
In his official capacity he had nothing
to do with the terms of the capitula-
tion, the entire credit for which be-
longs to General Shafter who on July
10 received the following dispatch from
General Corbin, at Washington, of that
date:
THE secretary of war directs me to
inform you that General Miles left here
at 10:4O last night for Santiago, but |
with instructions which do not in any |
manner supersede you as the COM
mander of the United States troops in
The field near Santiago so long as you
are able for duty"
