MILITARY GOVERNOR.
Gen. Chaffee and Not Gen. Keifer VIII BG
Placed in Command at Sanri-
ago de Cuba.

WASHINGTON. July 2O.-Although the
president has not appointed military
governor for Santiago, it is likely that
Gen. Chaffee, who is now at Santiago,
will be named. The president seri-
Ously considered the appointment of
Gen. j. Warren Keller, of Ohio, on
account of his experience in military
and civil government, but, after con-
sidering the subject for some time,
he thought it best to appoint some
one who had been in the campaign in
Cuba and understood the conditions
and needs of Santiago. Gen. Chaffee
has been IN Cuba with the invading
army and is well qualified for the place
and, like Gen. Keller, is an Ohio man,
having been appointed from that state.
He entered the army in the ranks and
gradually earned his promotion and
was lieutenant colonel of the cavalry
when war was declared and pro-
NOTED to brigadier general and finally
major general of volunteers since that
time

CONFEDERATE VETERANS.
Opening of Their Eighth Annual Reunion
in the Auditorium, AtIanta-Speeches
Which ExtoIled One Nation.

ATLANTA, Ca, July 21.-Ten thou
sand confederate veterans and their
friends completely filed the vast
auditorium at Piedmont park Wednes-
day and cheered to the echo speeches
which eulOgized confederacy, extolled
"One Nation" and cast glowing trib-
utes upon the records and achieve
ments of the soldiers of the south
in the war with Spain. Gen.
Gordon, surprisingly strong in voice,
delivered a splendid speech which
thrilled the hearts of his auditors and
sent the famous rebel yell echoing in
to the rafters. The Grafton of the day
was delivered by Gen. Chas. E. Hooker,
of Mississippi, and addresses were
made by Gov. Atkinson, Hon. w. a.
Hemphill, Mayor Chas. Collier and
Representative Fielder.

SPANISH COLONIES.
The President is Preparing a Plan to Seize
and Hold Them Until After
Peace is Declared.

WASHINGTON, July 21.-The presi-
dent is preparing to carry out his plan
to seize all the Spanish colonies and
hold them until peace is declared.
The Porto Rico expedition has started
and now it is semi-officially announced
that Commodore Watson and his fleet
will stop at the Canaries and form a
a military and naval base. Then there
are the Balearic islands off Algiers in
the Mediterranean, which will be next
visited and as they can be easily cap
tured, they will be made the naval
base for the fleets operations against
the coast of Spain. 1t can be also
stated that Commodore Schley will
follow Watson's fleet, and should the
latter go on to Manila, Schley and his
vessels will guard the Mediterranean
and the coast of Spain.

ger said Wednesday night that he ex-
pected Gen. Miles, one brigade of in
fantry and some artillery would leave
Cuba Immediately under convoy of a
strong naval squadron, for the inva-
rion Of Porto Rico. He expressed the
hope and belief that the troops were
already en- route to Porto Rico Most
of them had been on board the trans
ports for several days and the situa-
ton 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 Gen. Miles were
concerned the expedition had been in
readiness to proceed to Porto Rico for
several days. Orders were sent to
Adm, Sampson to start at once with
his feet for the landing place in Porto
Rico which has been determined upon
by the war authorities.
No information could be obtained at
the war department Wednesday as to
whe Their the fleet actually had sailed.

A. Story Which snapped the BOndG

Young Things.

They were standing at the counter, and
couldn't help but hear.
'Talk about hard luck" said the girl
with the hot chocolate. Il know a wom-
an who had an awful thing happen to her
over in New York
oh, do tell me about it," gurgled the
girl with the ice cream soda.
well, went on the chocolate girl, "she's
not wealthy at all, you know, and she
doesn't k % a nurse. So, one day, when
she had t. go down town shopping, she took
her bah and left it at one of these 1ay
nursery creche places. They gave ne1 2
check for It, and she went off shopping She
didn't come back to the creche till late in
Che afternoon, and when she went to take
srt the check it was gone"
GOOD gracious!" said the girl with the
ee cream soda, looking shocked. "What
did she do?"
Well" went on the chocolate girl, ''they
told her she couldn't take the baby without
check, and she'd have to wait till the other
babies were taken away, and then she could
have what was left. So she waited for hours
and hours, till all the babies were gone but
one, and when she went to get that-well,
the only baby left was a colored baby
''Oh, how perfectly awful" exclaimed
the girl with the ice cream soda, in accents
of horror. What did she do? Wasn't she
perfectly frantic? My goodness, how hor-
rible! Didn't she ever get her baby back
again? l should think she'd have been per-
fectly crazy. What did she do?o

took the colored baby. 1t was hers. She
was colored, you know"

OVER CAIMANERA.
Spanish Flag Hauled Down and the
Stars and Stripes Unfurled.
Ordnance Department Considering What
TO Do With the Large Quantity of Arms,
Ammunition, Fortifcat lions, Etc,
Recently Captured.

CAMP MCCALLA, July 90, via Playa
Gel Este, Santiago Bay.-A launch
from the Marblehead went up the bay
Monday afternoon to Verticaya del
Toro, opposite Caimanera, and gave
formal notice to the Spanish COM
mander of the surrender of Gen.
TcraIs troops together with the cOndi-
lions of the capitulation of Santiago.
a limited time was fixed for hauling
down the Spanish flag over Caimanera.
The American officer also gave no.
tice that if the Spanish gunbOat San
aCval was disabled in any way, or
any arms, ammunition, public build
ings or barracks at Caimanera or Gu
2ntanamO were destroyed, the Span
iards would not be treated as prison
ers of war. The flag was hauled down
Monday afternoon.
From Spanish sources it is learned
that the total force in Guantanamo
and Caimanera is about 5000, of which
number however, only about 5000 are
fit for service, the Othecs being dis
abled by sickness or wounded.
Tuesday steps were taken for for
NAL surrender. What disposition will
be made of the prisoners has not yet
been determined because of the pres
-ence of yellow fever among them. A

rigid quarantine will be maintained,
and it is probable that transports for
the removal of the prisoners will be
sent up the bay and loaded there in
stead of having the prisoners marched
down here
WASHINGTON, July 2O.-The ordnance
department of the war department is
considering what to do with the large
quantity of arms, ammunition, fortifi-
cation guns and ordnance stores which
have come into the possession of this
government through the surrender of
Santiago. Gen. Shafter reports that
about 1000 Mauser rifles were turned
over the first day and the number will
reach probably 10000 when the troops
at other points in the surrendered
zone turn in their guns. The reports
made before the surrender indicated
that the Mausers handled by the Span
ish troops were not in very good con-
dition. The guns were all right when
furnished, bat the poor care they re-
ceived, principally from volunteers,
left many Of them rusty and de-
fective. Ordnance officials believe
however, that the greater part of
the guns can be put in first
class order. The Mauser has a caliber
of seven milllmeteres or Az of an
inch, while the American gun has a
caliber of 3 of an inch. This differ
ence IN caliber makes it impossible to
use American ammunition in the cap
tured guns. The surrender also covers
a large stock of ammunition, rife
balls. etc, of the caliber suitable for
the Mausers so that when the guns
are repaired there will be
ample stock of cartridges to
use in them. The ordnance
bureau is considering only what shall
be done with the guns if they are util-
lZed by this government, as it has
nothing to do with the larger question
concerning the ultimate return of the
guns to the Spanish troops This is a
general question of governmental pol
icy. but it appears to be pretty well
settled that the guns will not be re-
turned to Spaniards at least until the
war is over
The ordnance officers expect to make
very little use of the old fortification
guns mounted in Moro castle, Socapa.
p Cayo Smith and other forts along
Santiago harbor. These, it has devel-
oped since the capture, are guns of
ANTICIPATED pattern, most of them
muZzle leaders. 1t is said they would
not be worth bringing back to the
United States, except as souvenirs of
the fall of Santiago.
