SHAFTER AND GARCIA.
Former Explains How the Latter
Was Disappointed at Santiago.

WASHINGTON, July SO.-The war
department has received the following:
Santiago; July 29.-Hon: R. 4. Alger, SEQ
of Saturday, July %, in which comments are
l desire to say that Gen. Garcia was invited
Dy me personally to go into the city OF San
tiago at the time I entered it, but he de-
civil officers were left in power. 1t was fully
explained to him that those officials were con-
tinued In power until it was convenient to
sistance to me has been purely voluntary on
his part, and he was told at the beginning
that did not exercise any control over him,
except as he chose to give.
1.-THE trouble with Gen. Garcia was that
he expected to be placed in command at this
place-in other words that we would turn
the city over to him. I explained to him
that the question of Cuban independence
could not be considered by me.
"An9thsr grievance was that finding that
opposition from Gen. Garcia, 1 extended NV
own lines in front Of him and closed up the
gap, as I saw that I had to depend upon NV
own men for any effective investment of the
place. -"Shafter"
The differences which have arisen he
tween Gen. Shafter and Gen. Garcia
are not regarded by the war officials
as serious, and little doubt is expressed
that they will be amicably adjusted.
The dispatch Is in entire accord with
previous advices to the war department
concerning the incident to which Gen,
Shafter refers. 1t is evident from Gen.
Skaters dispatch and from other in
formation in the hands of the war Of
ficialS that some Of the statements in
Gen. Garcia's letter to Gen. Shafter
were incorrect. 1t was the understand
ing Of officials of the war department
that Gen. Garcia had been invited to
1Nr, of hn oil
ing the surrender Of Santiago, and this
understanding is corroborated by the
statements in Gen. Skaters dispatch
Of today.
Gen. Shafter was given an intima-
ton that it might be wise for him to
make a statement of his relations with
Garcia, which could be given to the
pubic, In order that any misapprehen-
sion concerning these relations which
might exist should be corrected. In
response to this intimation, Gen. Shat
ter sent the dispatch above quoted TO
Gen. Alger.
A difficulty arising out of the differ
ence between Gen. Shafter and Gen.
Garcia has arisen in Santiago. The
Spanish residents there have been led
to believe that Skaters army is to
be ordered away from Santiago after
the Spanish troops now prisoners have
been transported to Spain. This has
given rise to fear in their minds that
they are to be left to the tender amen
tiles of the Cubans. If they feared
the occupation of Santiago by the
American army, they are now doublv
fearful Of the results of it's departure
Appeals have been made to Gen. shat
ter not to withdraw the American SOL
diers from Santiago, and he has com
municated these appeals to the war Of
fee.
Accr
people Of Santiago by the war denart-
ment, through Gen. Shafter, that This
government will stand squarely by the
terms OF the presidents proclamation

presso and Gibara schooners, with like
cargoes. We're taken by the gunboat
Nashville at the same time. Both YES
seis were lying in the harbor and made
no resistance. On the contrary the men
on board the two schooners were eager
to be brought to this country, but En-
sign Snow, who took charge of the
Gibara. put the crew of six ashore and
brought away only the captain, Miguel
Castillo, his wife and child and cook
All the papers aboard both schooners
had been destroyed before the capture,
but it is known both vessels piled be-
tween Gibara and Havana. There were
about $50 tons aboard each. The Gibara
is in quarantine here. The Espresso
has not yet arrived.
By this time the American flag is
probably flying over Gibara. When the
prize schooner left that place the gun
beat Nashville was preparing to send
men ashore to raise the flag. The Span
iards had evacuated Gibara several
days before and fled to Holquin, and
the town was in the possession of 500
Cuban infantry and 200 cavalry when
the Nashville reached there. Order Is
being maintained, but there is great
distress among the inhabitants on &C
count Of the scarcity of food
1t is said that Gen. Luque, of the
Spanish army, placed 500 of his wound
ed soldiers in the hospital at Gibara,
and requested that the United States
government care for them.

DEATH OF CAPT. DODGE.

Adit. Gen. COrbin Was Deeply AZ
fectcd When He Heard the News.
WASHINGTON, July 3O-Adjt. Gen.
Corbin was deeply affected today on
receiving news of the death at San
tiago of Capt. Charles Dodge, Twenty
fourth infantry. The captain was lieu
tenant in the same company that
formed Gen. Corbin's first command
when he became a captain, and he
looked upon him almost as a younger
brother. If anything was wanting to
show the extraordinarily high rate Of
mortality among the officers of the
American army engaged in the battle
before Santiago, it is supplied by the
statement at the war department. that
with the death of Capt. Dodge the
TWenty-fourth infantry lost every
captain of the regiment. All the 9TH
er captains had been killed in action,
when Capt. Dodge, the sole survivor,
was stricken with yellow fever, which
led to his death yesterday.
The president and Secretary Alger
have not overlooked the sacrifices
made by the officers of Skaters army,
and have determined to do what they
can to provide for their families. A
few vacancies among the second lieu
tenancies in the regular army exist.
and these will be filled by appointing
the sons Of some of the officers who
lost their lives on the battlefield. The
war department is now taking steps
TO ascertain the particulars regarding
The families of these officers.

THE PORTO RICO EXPEDITION.
War Department Hopes and Believes
Cuban Contingent Has started.

WASHINGTON. July 2i.-Sscretary AL
ger said tonight that he expected that
General Miles, one brigade of infantry,
and some artillery would leave Cuba i'm
mediately, under convoy OF a strong naval
squadron. for the invasion OF Porte Rice.
He expressed the hope and belief that the
troops were already en- route for Porto
Rico. Most of them had been on board
the transports for several days, and the
situation was becoming trying for them.
Secretary Alger said there had been no
delay in the embarkation of the troops
and that so far as the War Department
and General Miles were concerned. the
expedition had been in readiness to pro-
coed TO Porto Rico for several days. Or
ders were sent to-day to Admiral Samp-
SON 10 start at once with his fleet for the
landing place in Porto Rico which had
been determined upon by the war au-
thorities.
No information could be obtained at the
War Department tonight as 10 whether
the feet mad actually sailed or not.
