United States viii Not Agree TO send
Back to Spain Any But Soldiers who
Surrendered.
One of the most important questions
which will be settled by the two mill
tary commissions will be whether
Spain or the United States will bear
the expense necessary to send the
Spanish troops in Cuba and Puerto
Rico back to Spain. The administra-
tion is opposed to paying for the trans
portation of the Spanish army, other
than those troops which surrendered
to Gen. Shafter or Gen. Miles. For all
such troops which are in reality pris-
oners of war the United States is per-
fectly willing to provide transporta-
ton. This is being illustrated at the
present by the sending of Gen. Toral's
army back to Spain.
1t is feared by officials of the admin
istration that Spain hopes and expects
that this government will be as liberal
and provide transportation for the
Spanish armies in Cuba and Puerto
Rico. Army and navy officers say,
however, that no such plan will be
agreed to by the military commissions
representing the United States.
