SANTIAGO De CUBA, July 25.-With
the exception of those at Guantanamo
and Surely, who will surrender with
in a few hours, all Spanish troops
within the territory indicated by the
terms of Toral's capitulation have
given up their arms and submitted to
the authority of the United States.
Lieut. Miley of Skaters staff, who
was at the head of the commission to
receive the surrender of Spanish
troops in the outlying districts, has
just returned from a visit to Palma

Guantanamo will be a greater surprise
than at first believed. There are seven
thousand troops there, mostly regulars

RICHLY DESERVED.
The Offending Correspondents Will
Be Sent Home in Disgrace.

NEW YORK, July PA Santiago
special to the Herald says that civil
government in the city has almost
been restored to normal conditions.
Many Spanish officials who refused to
take the oath acknowledging the SUI
premacy of the United States have sent
in their designations. They are re-
placed by Cubans.
Gen. Shafter says the expulsion of a
number of correspondents is caused,
not because of any feeling toward the
newspapers they are representing, but
owing to the conduct of the reporters
personally.
"One correspondent has made him
self nuisance to every one during the
entire campaign. He is guilty." says
Shafter, ''of nsolence to a member of
my staff, and was insolent to me per-
sonally: be even struck at me.
This made him liable to be shot
without trial. I did not desire to take
such an extreme measure, though his
action richly deserved it.
"Other correspondents have been
found posting infam matory plac-
ards throughout the town. There
are SO many discordant elements
that the action is desirable for
public reasons, and not the slightest
i'll feeling should be created by my ar
resting and sending home these cor
respondents.

PORTO RICO
1t is Believed Miles Has Arrived.

WASHINGTON. July Pit is gen
orally believed in official circles tha
the first Porto Rico expedition, con
sisting of 5000 effective men under
Gen. Miles, arrived yesterday off the
the point of debarkation decided upon
on the coast of Porto Rico, and that
today men are landing for the purpose
of esta ablishing base for active oper-
ations against San Juan.
The landing point selected is so far
from San Juan that General Msrcis,
Spanish commander, will be unable to
concentrate enough troops to make a
resistance. With the assistance of the
naval convoy, the landing, it is confid-
emily expected, will be easily effected.
Once esta blished on Porto Rican soil,
the Americans will never be driven
away.
The war department is hustling re-
Inducements to the front. From now
on the campaign will be vigorously
prosecuted, and will end only when the
Spsniardf surrender the island. The
plan of campaign is much like the San
tiago one. The troops will gradually
close in on and surround San Juan,
while Admiral Sampson will invest
the place from the sea.
CHATTANOOGA, July 25.-The third
brigade, first corps, consisting of the
First and Third Kentucky, and the
Fifth Illinois regiments, leave Camp
Thomas tomorrow morning, Gen. Fred
Grant in command.
WASHINGTON, July 25.-Dispatches
received at the war department up to
noon today show that there are now
five transports at Newport News. One
will arrive tonight, one is expected to-
morrow, one Thursday. On Thursday
the Harvard will also be available, and
on Saturday two more transports are
due. Next week four or five trans
ports will reach Newport News, max
ing about IA transports available for
Porto Rico. The vessels will depart as
fast as they are loaded.
WASHINGTON. July 25.-While
Gen. Miles with his advance guard is
establishing a base in Porto Rico the
war department is using every effort
to facilitate the movement of the
remainder of the Porto Rican army.
Gen Brooke and his staff should reach
Newport News. Va, today. The great
er part of Haines's brigade is also due
at that point this morning. A part of
the troops reached there yesterday af-
ternoon. ---tt
= 1t is expected that sufficient num-
ber of transports to accommodate the
command will reach Newport News in
time to get all the troops under way by
Thursday. 1t is the intention of the
war department to have the cruiser
st. Paul carry, in addition to Gen.
Brooke and his staff, batteries A and
c of the Pennsylvania light artillery
and one regiment of General Grants
brigade. General Brooke expects to
sail Tuesday.

Restoration OF Rates

CHICAGO ILL.,. July {25.-In &C
cordance with the recent decision of
the officials of western roads freight
rates are today restored to the basis in
effect before the recent disastrous cut
ting was begun. The agreement covers
live stock, provisions, grain and all
other rates, and if the agreement is
adhered to the advance of fifteen per
cent will be rigidly maintained. The
restoration means many hundreds of
thousands of dollars in increased earn
ings to the railroads. 1t is estimated
that since the cutting began they have
lost about 81, 100000. The restoration
is part of the new combination scheme
of the Western trunk line committee.

Arthur Lee, of the royal artillery, de-
tailed with the American troops at
Santiago, all furnished short military
reports to their embassies or Legations
here in regard to the operations in the
actions of July 1, 2, and at Siboney
and the San Juan hill.
Major Won Goetzen, of the German
empiral guard corps, makes, perhaps,
the most interesting report. "There
were no mounted regular cavalry in
action says he, ''the earth's surface
not lending itself to the movement of
cavalry. The artillery was composed
of four batteries, each of four guns of
3.2 calibre.
SIT was the American infantry that
did the work. The fighting was in dis
persed (open) order; their line was q
mile long. The foreign attaches we're
ell upon the line of battle, where we
saw everything.
"One thing especially impressed us.
There were three regiments of volun-
unteers in the fighting line. The
Spanish commanders directed their
attack upon these and upon the regi-
ments of blacks. The volunteers were
never shaken and never gave ground
once. Where they made an advance
they held it.
''When one remembers that some of
these volunteers of the list New York,
Second Massachusetts, and Col. Woods
mounted rough riders, had not
been drilled more than two
months, their steady advance
under as hot a fire as was ever
seen in modern war was splendid evil
dence of the high courage and ready
adaptation to military conditions of
the American soldier.
