PONCE AND YAUCo.
Importance of the Ports Captured
by the American Forces

by the American Forces.
WASHINGTON, July 29.-(Special.)-
The news received today from the Port
of Ponce and from Gen. Miles indicates.
as has been expected by the war de-
partment officials, that the conquest
of Porto Rico is not to prove a difficult
task, and that the campaign against
San Juan will be as decisive as it will
be short and sharp.
Ponce, the surrender of which place
to the commander of the auxiliary
cruiser Dixie is reported, is a large
city of the island, and the capture is
important as furnishing a convenient
and advantageous base of operations.
War Notes of Porto Rico, a publica-
ton Issued by the war department..
gives the following details reg glrding
Ponce, the latest place to witness the
hoisting of the American flag:
Ponce: A city of $4,000 people, with
jurisdiction numbering $4,000. 1t is sit
uated on the south coast of the island
on plain about two miles from the
seaboard. 1t is the chief town of the
district of It's name. and is seventy
miles from San Juan. 1t is regularly
built, the central part almost exclusive
ly of brick and the suburbs of wood.
1t is the residence Of the military COM
mander and the seat of an official
chamber OF commerce. There is an ap-
pellate criminal court, beside other
courts; two churches, one Protestant,
said to be the only one in the Spanish
West Indies; civil and military hos
pitals; theaters market, municipal
public library hotels barracks, park,
perfectly equipped fire department.
and, commercially, is the second city of

IL was an inspiring thing when the

thought that the element of danger
would be controlled entirely by the
capacity of the system to absorb the
flow from the lesion. IF the lesion was
of so slight nature as to permit of the
absorption, then recovery would be
rapid enough. He thought the attack
was superinduced by the worry that

much concern to the Spanish govern
ment as it is to the American cabinet,
just now and there is even greater in
sistence on the continuance of Spanish
sovereignty over the Philippines than
there is over the more valuable islands
Of Cuba and Porto Rico. It is said that
the failure to demand money indem-
nifty will be appreciated by the Span
1sh government as an act Of generosity
on the part Of the victors, and that
this will in part offset the other terms
laid down. =

question Of sewerage for the District
Of Columbia, as though nothing had

"And then the destruction OF two
Spanish fleets, with the loss of a single
American seaman. Is a miracle that
aroused the most intense excitement at
the time in Washington. History has
been made rapidly during the past
three months"

respondent of the Daily Mail says:

announcing the surrender Of Manila
to Admiral Dewey.
MADRID, July 29.-No verifcation of

WASHINGTON, July 29.-The belief
is general in the war department that
Gen. Merritt has landed in Manila,
though no cable information to that
effect has been received. The fact that
Merritt sailed month ago and has
had ample time to reach Manila is the
ground for the belief of the department.
