THEY WON'T GET OUT
Spanish Troops in the Interior Still
Fighting

GUANTANAMO BAY, July II. p. NJ
The problem Of notifying the Spanish
troops OF the Fourth Army Corps outside
of those which composed the garrison Of
Santiago dc Cuba, of the surrender Of Gen.
Torais forces, Is likely to cause some trou-
BILE. The spaniards at Guantanamo ara
evidently still ignorant Of the surrender
and the Cubans under General Perez have
daily skirmishes with the defenders Of the
town. who are apparently trying to break
through the lines and join the Spanish
forces at Santiago de Cuba
General Miles, who arrived here on the
Yale this afternoon, says that General
Toral Will send officers to the different
forts IN the province notifying them Of the
surrender. The Spaniards in Guantanamo
can be easily reached. and they will be orr
dered to come down the bay and surrender.

rerainipg their native land Is naturally
grateful to the wearied troops, and this
stroke Of policy will probably have . great
effect on the garrison at Havana. There Is
not the slightest doubt that troops pos
sessed Of such fighting capabilities as the
A mericans have shown could at any time
have stormed Santiago. Happily, useless
sacrifice Of life has been averted. The d.
rect gain to the United States from the ca
nitulation Is small, but the direct results
ara important to the growth of mutual re-
enact between the two countries, and the
lesson to the Madrid government that 1t
NAV now abandon hopeless attitude with
out loss of military honors. The whole
Santiago campaign conforms strictly to
the experience of the past The American
navy has displayed conspicuous ability.
Torpedoes have played less important
part than was anticipated, and It may be
hoped that over-water discharges on poaro
cruisers will now be abandoned, If indeed
these craft may not be exempt from the
incubus of the torpedo.
Judging from the American experiments
at Santiago the prospects Of bombardment
from invisible stations over clifs Will not
be very alarming In future warfare.

military conditions are more favorable TO

Landing Privileges

SAN FRANCISCO. July H. Reports
have reached this city from st. Michael that
the only suitable landing beach at st. Mich.
ael is controlled by two transportation
companies. and that vessels wishing to land
at *. Michael are taxed heavily for the
privileges. the companies having fenced OH
four miles Of the best beach for their own
uses.
When seen this morning by an Associated
Press representative, Colonel Randall. who
was In command OF the soldiers at st.
Michael and who returned on the steamer
st. Paul last night, said that up to tho time
Of his departure not single vessel had paid
for landing privileges on beaches other than
that controlled by the Alaska Commercial
Company and the North American Trading
and Transportation Company. Colonel
Randall said that the companies had sur
veyed this stretch Of beach several years
ago and that the question Of ownership had
been referred to the authorities at Wash.
ington many months ago. but that up to the
time OF his departure no decision In the mat
ter had been received from Washington.
This landing place II the most convenient
and safest around ST. Michael, but there
are several other Beaches. comparatively
safe and couveptsnt. which have been used
by vessels other than those owned by the
two companies.

CHICKAMAUGA NATIONAL, MILL
TARY PARK. July 1S.-An order from
headquarters has been issued to Colonel
Fred Bennett of the Third Illinois Infantry,
commanding the Second Brigade Of the
First Division, First Corps. to forward the
wagon trains of his brigade to Charleston
at once. Quartermaster Lee has arranged
for the railroad transportation and the
wagons and mules will be shipped tonight
and tomorrow.
1t is said that at least half the regiments
of the First Corps are on waiting orders and
will move at an early date, though no
moving orders have as yet been given out.
Colonel Benefits brigade was under or
ders to move to Charleston but was held
back pending the arrival Of transports. 1t
is said now that this brigade will be moved
at once The railroad companies were in
structed to have cars ready to be loaded
with troops by tonight, but they will not
go before tomorrow night at the earliest.
Everything indicates that forward move
ment will be made Immediately.
General Grant Is planning for q sham bat
tie to be executed tomorrow. The head
quarters of General Grant are being beauti-
fled and during the past few days force
of men have been at work constructing
gravel walks all over the camp.
From present indications all the batteries
composing the artillery brigades at the park
will be only four gun batteries. The talk
has been current at the park for some time
that the batteries would be reduced to four
guns, and 1t now appears that the boys will
go to the front with only that number.

A QUESTION OF SECTIONS
The Lead Men Will Probably Under

WASHINGTON, July 18.-In the case Of
the Selby Smelling and Lead company of
San Francisco, the attorney general has
decided that q drawback Of the duties paid
on imported lead refined in a bonded estab-
lishment, and subsequently withdrawn on
payment Of duties for domestic consump-
ton, as provided for by the act Of July a.
1897, should be allowed upon the exporta-
ton of the article manufactured wholly
from such lead, under section 30 of the
same act The ore imported by this COM
pany was a fiuxing ore. composed largely
of lead and was smelted. as the process re-
quired, along with a domestic refractory
ore, containing incidentally small per-
centage Of lead But. under section 20, II
Is held that. as the Law authorizes the with.
drawal Of 30 per cent Of the refined product
for domestic consumption only upon the
payment OF the duties. this sufiicisntly
Identifies the 30 per cent as foreign ore. and
as such, 1t Is entitled to drawback OF

schedules which have been in force under
Spanish rule, and 1t is expected that tele-
gram embodying the principal features of
the new schedules may be sent to General

The new rates will follow more or less
closely those hitherto in force In Cuba, and
will make no discrimination in favor of or
against citizens OF any foreign power, in
Guiding the United States.
Any Inconsistencies and excessive levies,
however, will be corrected as soon as posi-
BILE. Within day or two customs expert
will be designated to take charge of the
details Of the work, under the general d.
rection of the military Governor Of the
