QUEEN MAY GIVE UP.
Said to he Likely to Resign the Regency
to Save the Throne For Her

LONDON, May 6.-The Vienna CORE.
snoudent of The Daily Chronicle says:
The idea of tho resignation Of the
regency by Queen Maria Christina Is
being seriously considered by the mem
bers of the imperial family of Austria
with a view of averting the anti
dynastic movement and save the
throne. An exchange of ideas OH the
subject is going on between the queer
and her Austrian family, but its mos
influential members are decidedly op
posed.

Thirty-nve Thousand Men VIII
Go out OF the Service BE-
fore September.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-THE mus
tcring out Cf the volunteer army raised
In defense Of the Union against the
armies iof Spain practically began at
the war department yesterday and will
be continued until the army has been
placed on q basis consistent with our
present relations to the nations Of the
earth. orders were prepared yesterday
for the mastering out Of about 35 600
volunteers, including nearly rs regi-
ments Of infantry and about eight
troops Of cavalry and FIVE or six bat
teries Of artillery.
The details Of the order bearing on
this subject have not yet been fully
perfected and the officials condne them
selves to general statements In regard
thereto. 1t was admitted that the First
regiment of Vermont volunteers, at
tached to the Third army corps en-
camped at Chickamauga, Ga. had been
expected to proceed to Fort Ethan AL
len. Vt. That post Is the nearest one to
the homes of the members Of the regi-
ment and was selected with q view to
their mastering out soon after their ar
rival there. Adjutant General Corbin
said that a similar course would be
followed in the case Of the other volnn-
teer regiments selected for mastering
out They would. he said. be ordered
TO their state capitals as soon as IL
could be done without danger to the
interests Of the government and mus
tered out Of the military service as
rapidly as possible,
In response to a direct inquiry on the
subject, General Corbin said that this
course would be followed in the case Of
the First regiment. District Of Columbia
volunteer infantry. According to the
present plans, this regiment which is
now about to embark at Santiago win
be detained In the camp at Montauk
Point just long enough to enable it
TO get a complete new outfit of cloth
ing and TO recuperate from the fatigues
of the hard campaign near Santiago. 1t
is therefore probable that after the Dis
trict Of Columbia soldiers have bsen
at Montauk Point a few weeks they
will be ordered to Washington and re-
main in service there until they are
regularly mustered out. It is known.
unless there is a decided change in the
present plans of the war department.
that about 100000 volunteers will be
mustered out within the next 30 days.
A formal announcement of the plans
being deferred pending the receipt Of
certain desired information from Major
General Merritt. commanding the mill
tay forces in the Philippines. Advices
are hourly expected from him as to his
wishes in the matter There is a large
number Of volunteers in the Philip.

army to the extent Of 100000 men viii

1t is believed to be the purpose Of the

LONDON. Aug. 1.-THE Times. In an
editorial article this morning, says:
'As the signing of the protocol could
not have been known when the Germans
arranged 20 remove Governor General

markably near deliberate breach of

General Augustin would have been the
most important prisoner of war. The

Of the city and the Spanish forces with

During the Interval OF grace the Ger

and others under German protection.
The demand for surrender was re-
peated on the afternoon OF Aug 9, but
the spaniarda requested delay to
enable them to obtain instructions from
Madrid by way OF Hongkong The re-
quest was refused.
The dispatch continues. "a lombard

begun rOout 10 O'clock on the morning
Of Aug. 13. The Spaniards were soon
forced TO ovacuate their southern posi-
tion at Malate. and the Americans, who
advanced on land. arrived soon after
noon before the old town, which then
surrendered. Manila itself, despite the
heavy fire, remained completely un-
harmed"

Capture Of the City Most Humane-Every-

Capture Of the City Most Humane Every
thing but Defenses spared.
LONDON, Aug. 1.-THE Manila cor
respondent Of The Daily Telegraph,
telegraphng Saturday, says:
Nothing could be more humane than
the Americans capture Of the town
General Merritt and Admiral Dewey's
plan was to spare every object but the
armed defenses and the trenches. APP
parently the American losses were eX-
trcmey small The Spanish intrench-
ments varied in point Of distance from
two to four miles from the center of
Old Manila.
Defending this long line Of at least
ten miles were not over and probably
under 5000 Spanish regular troops, vol
unteers and natives About half that
number were in the hospital. The at
tacking force numbered from 10000 to
10000 natives and 10000 Americans on
shore and aboard the fleet.
I'm every respect the advantage was
on the side Of the attack. The Amerl-
can field guns threw heavier metal and
had longer range than the Spanish, the
marksmanshlp OF the United States
gunners was much superior to that of
the Spanards. and the men We're
stronger and in better condition.
"The Spanlards are a small race COM
pared with their stalwart opponents.
and worn out by hundred days siege
and disappointed by the failure to ar
rive of the promised Spanish relief
squadron they had lost heart. 1t was a
hopeless struggle.
Looking over the bay 1t was curious
to notice the foreign fleets arrange
themselves according to their sympa-
=thies-the English and Japanese near
the Americans and the Germans and
French on the opposite side of the bay
north Of the Paslg river. The British
cruiser Immortalite and her consorts
kept fairly near the American line
-The attacking squadron formed in
line between Malate and old Manila,
with the Concord watching the fort at
the mouth OF the Pasig. The American
fleet lay outside of the breakwater.
"The Olympia fred the first shot at 20
minutes TO TO- and a fairly continuous
but by no means furious cannonade was
kept up until 20 iInutes past H. BY
that time the Malate fort was sllenced,
and the American troops then stormed
the intrenchments.
"The spaniards who were in the
carthworks tell me that the rapid fir
ing guns Of the little gunboat Rapldo,
which lay close to the shore. were far
more terrible in their effects than was
the ralSlng FIRE Of the ships.
Resistance TO the American attack
was impossible. The First Colorado
regiment was the earliest to charge the
Spaniards. who retired to the second
line. but. soon outnumbered they were
forced into the old city A part Of Ma
late suffered severely from the bonn
bardment. The vaunted intramuros de-
fenses were not tried.
"The Spanish commander, convinced
that further resistance was hopeless,
hoisted a white flag at half past 1, and
the order to cease firing was at once
issued"

Retail merchants are now selling pro-
visions at moderate prices The news
that vessels were soon to arrive with
food supplies was one of the causes OF
reduction of values, and It also had
the effect of inducing many who had
concealed stores to put them into the
open market.
Vegetables, fruit and fish can now be
had for less money than has been charg-
ed for them since the blockade began to

MADRID, Aug. 17-At the conclusion
of the cabinet council yesterday Admi-
raj Cervera was instructed to take the
first ship home, Independent of nation
ality.
The news of the capitulation Of Manila
has been received here just like the 9TH
er reverses, with frigid apathy. It would
seem as if the people Of Spain, instead
of being as the agltators have striven
to present them, a volcano ready to
burst into eruption, are more like a
worn out crater.
Yesterdays cabinet council was al
most exclusively occupied in consider
ing the details of the repatriation Of the
troops. The question of convoking the
cortes was postponed until the next
meeting Of the cabinet. The council
also discussed the appointment Of a
peace commission.
Captain Aunon. the ministtr of ma
rine, says that The United States gov
ernment has expressed a desire that
the commission shall be composed of
the most important men in diplomatic
and political circles.
Duke Almodovar de Rio, the foreign
minister. denies that he is opposed to
the nomination Of Senor Moret. minister
of the colonies in the preceding cabinet,
as one Of the commissioners. The for
eign minister adds that he could not be
hostile to a nomination which has not
yet been proposed.
1t is asserted in well informed quarters
that Senior Sagasta will provoke a crisis
over the question of convoling the cor
ties, on which the ministers still dis
