WASHINGTON, July 20.-Was depart.
ment officials feel that they are fully
justified in their decision to retain prac.
tically all of Skaters army at Santiago
by the press reports that reached them
yesterday indicating the growth Of seri
Gus friction between the American
forces and the Cuban troops, growing
out of the latter's exclusion from San.
tiago by General Shafter's orders. 1t ia
felt now that the garrison originally
proposed-two immune regiments
would have been quite insufficient to
meet an outside Spanish force that
might come from Holguin or Manza.
Milo and also to restrain the rapacity of
the Cubans. 1t is realized that the
present situation is full of difficulty and
the future is dark, owing to the disposi-
ton evidenced by the Cubans to ignore
or refuse to be bound by the amenities
of modern warfare.
This first symptom of friction has
suggested to the officials innumerable
difficulties that will arise in the future.
Of course, it would seem TO be only DO.
litic now to avoid any open rupture
with the Cubans provided they can be
kept in leash and not involve the United
States in the disgrace that would follow
the sacking of helpless communities,
but it begins to appear that for some
time to come, and even after the con.
quest of Cuba is complete, the United
States must maintain there a military
government in order to meet the re-.
sponsibilities which it has assumed to
the civilized world.

THE RAID AGAINST SPAIN,
No Time Set For Watson's Departure.
Threat OF Spain Not
Feared.

WASHINGTON, July 19,--No time has
been set for the departure Of Commo-
dore Watson's squadron for Spain. al.
though this move is drawing near rap
idly. Secretary Long said yesterday
that reported new lists of the ships of
this squadron were inaccurate, as the
list had not been finally made ND.
Secretary Long said yesterday that no
apprehension whatever existed over the
Spanish threat that the Camara squad.
ron would be divided, part of the ships
coming to this side to attack American
seaport cities. This is looked upon as
sheer bluff, and it will not have the
effect Of changing any of the navy plans
or of withdrawing any ships for patrol
service on the Atlantic coast. Should
the Spanish threat be made good, ships
more than match for any of Camara &
vessels would be available a. any At.
lantic port on short notice.

surgents' representatives urged Gen.
eral August to surrender the city, as
serting that $4,000 insurgents sur.
rounded Manila and were able to enter
it at any moment and slaughter would
follow.
Continuing, the captain generals
visitors advised him to disregard the

ments coming to the Philippine islands,
and proposed reconciliation between
the Spaniards In the Philippines, under
a republican flag, and joint endeavor
to persuade the Americans to abandon
hostilities in the Philippine islands.
Finally, the representatives of the in
surgents proposed an appeal to the pow.
ers to recognize the independence OF the
Philippine islands.
The captain general replied that he
must fight, however hopeless the Span.
ish cause.
Admiral Dewey is establishing more
strict blockade, lest it be invalidated by
permitting neutrals to visit Cavite and
Malabon, and send and receive mails
enclosing surreptitious Spanish dis.
patches. He has threatened to station
warships opposite the city, which might
precipitate hostilities, as the Spanish
officers declare they will certainly fire
on any American within range, regard
less of the consequences.
The second installment of American
troops is expected here daily, and the
last detachment are booked to arrive
here early in August. Probably mill
tary operations will be deferred unit
the September dry season, when it is
cooler, and possibly then bloodshed ma,
be unnecessary.

Blew Up Powder Magazine to Escape

OAKLAND, Cal, July 2O.-The works
of the Western Fuse and Explosive
company were blown up by Coon Ng

the murderer, were killed. The dead

of Sheriff White, George Woodsum, ID.
Q. Cameron, Constables Gus Koch, J..

The Chinaman had fortified himself
in the magazine and blew it up when
the attempt TO arrest him was made.
The Celestial, who was employed in
the works and who caused the awful
explosion, had killed q fellow country.

were soon fighting the flames, but to no

wrecked. Four houses also are blown
down and about 40 partially wrecked
Deputy Sheriff Fred Sheriff and Dep.
uty Ed White escaped but are painfully
wounded.
Deputy Sheriff Sheritt's story is to
the effect that at o. clock this morning
the Chinaman called to Deputy Sheriff
White that he would surrender. White,
Woodsum and Koch Immediately pro-
ceeded to the door, while the others fol.
lowed. just as the door was reached
the sound as of a falling plank was
heard and then the explosion occurred
Coroner Wadeni and a corps of dep

ing fields for the remains. In some in
stances they had TO be picked up with
shovels. Fourteen OF the cars were
blown to splinters and several were
burned. Windows were broken in Oak.
land. Alameda and as far as Berkeley.
One of the most thrilling stories OF
the fatality is that told by Fred Sheriff
of West Oakland, whose escape was
simply marvellous. He said; with
the other deputy sheriffs we kept as
close to the powderhouse as possible.
When asked to surrender the fellow
would invariably reply that he would
blow up the place If we attempted to
take him, he repeating his threat so
often that the people around there
thought he would do it, and many
moved ont Of their homes. Had they
not done so they would have been dead,
for their homes are scattered over many
| acres.
1t is believed the Chinaman fired his
pistol into the powder.
Sheriff and Ed White are complete
nervous wrecks. They were carried
over 40 feet by the force Of the explo
sion and thrown violently to tht

der the absolute control Of an appointee
of Governor Black and an army Of dep

but in order to make it State bill they

measure Is thus taken out of Mayor Van

The miners are reticent about the
amounts they brought. The reason for
the observance OF such secrecy lies in
desire to avoid the payment of the 10
per cent royalty exacted by the Cana
dian government. Not in every case
have the miners paid royalty on the
full amount taken out of their claims,
and many of them have smuggled out
larger sums than they will admit

the richest ever found on the face of
the earth, but this gold is ten fold
harder to get than in any other country

1t is said that the shipment of gold on

heavier had those in the interior not
felt some apprehension of an attack at
