EVERYTHING WAS QUIET
AZ Santiaao Yesterday-Not shot Was
Fired GeReraI Miles Is New with
the Army at SIbOaey.

Washington, July 12.-At
midnight the cable operators at
Playa del Este reported to the
war department that no shots
had been fired at Santiago dur
ing the day. Everything was
quiet.
Earlier i'll the night the presi-
.lent received a dispatch from
Gen. Miles stating that he had
arrived at SlbOney at noon and
had held a conference with Ad-
niral Sampson and Gen. Shat
ter.
This message, with a few
short ones from G"I. Shafter
received i'll the morning and
the afternoon. tell the story of
the day at Santiago. as far as
known by the war department
officials.
They hoped that the bonn
hardment of Santiago was in
progress, but no confirmation
nf the hope could be secured.
The arrival of Gen. Miles on
the scene, however, may have
delayed the plan agreed on for
lie day.
The presence of Gen. Miles
promises an active and vigOr-
Gus campaign. While be has
40 intention of superseding
Gen. Shafter or of taking away
from him any glory, lc, he is
;;t the head of tie ,,rmy and re-
ceives orders from no one but
the president of the United
States.
Gen. Miles idea for the cap
thre of Santiago was that il
should be completely invested
Iy the American troops. The
kilograms received from Gen.
Hhafter during the earlier part
"t the day show that this plan
Is being carried out.
Gen. Guy Henry, who ar
rived from New York on the
st. Paul. has pushed his troops
out to the right wing to com
I,lete the investment of the city
:tS far west as possible.
1t is known that the greatest
fear that Gen. Miles had was
tlat the army under Gen. Tora,
might escape from Santiago
under cover of darkness. He
will be sure that his line of lanC
investment is strong enough tc
prevent this, and he will ther
push ahead.

KIAO CHAU LEASED.
China Has Yielded to the
Demands of Germany.
SEEMS TO GET NOTHING IN RETURN.
The London Times Wakes IronicaI over
the Situation, and the Editorials OF
other English Morning Papers
Are In a Similar strain.

LONDON, Jan. 6.-The Berlin Reich
sanzeiger announces that an under
standing has been reached between Ger.
many and China regarding the cession
Of Kiao chau bay to the former.
IL is intended by the cession to render
possible for Germany "the fulhllmeni
OF her just wish for the possession In
the same way as other powers OF a base
Tor trade and navigation in Chinese wa
ters."
The oession takes the form of a lease
for an indefinite time. Germany is al
liberty TO erect on the ceded territory
all the necessary buildings and estab-
lishments and To take measures re-
quired for their protection.
A dispatch to The Times from Pekine
says that the lease is for 80 years. The
Times says editorially this morning.: 1T
would be simple to assume that The
Reichsanzeiger's dispatch tells the
whole story, for il quite omits to say
what China gets in return. To the
world at large. however, the material
fact is that Germany by physical force
has obtained a naval station. This T.
the fact that must guide other powers
in determining their own policy.
THE talk of a lease is a mere saving
Of appearances. There is no doubt that
both Germany and China are aware
that it is a practical cession In full SOW
ereignty. 1t provides a further argu-
ment in favor of an English guaranteed
Chinese loan"
The morning paper editorials general
ly are in the same strain as that of The
Times They point out that the con-
tract is one in which Germany appar-
emily gets everything and China moth
ing, while the question of the safety of
the missionaries is entirely dropped.
Nothing. however is said about rail-
ways or mines
The Standard says editorially: Eng
land need not be rufiled because she
can claim exactly the same privilege as
Germany. This is the logical and un-
assailable position the government has
taken up, and II is not astonishing TO
find that IL has made a profound i'm
preston in Europe as we'll as had a
satisfactory reception In America.
Whatever Mr.. Sherman may say, the
mercantile community is well aware
that England. I'm claiming equal rights
for all, is fighting the battle Of the
American merchants and traders as
we'll as that Of her own subjects"
The Daily News says. THE great
point for Lord Salisbury to consider is
the possibility of Germany claiming the
right to erect a tariff wall against other
powers" Commenting with satisfac-
tion upon the opinions of New York pa
pers sympathizing with British policy.
The Daily News says, "Such express
slons Of opinion may be taken as the
bread Of our free trade policy cast up
on the waters and returning to US in
international influence after many
days"
The Daily Mail, commenting upon the
fact that the United States and Japan
are openly on our side in the Chinese
affair."" says, For once we are getting
some recognition for our generous com
mercial policy"

interview with woman"
In a second cablegram the correspond
ent stated that he had interviewed Rat
cliffes father and the father Of the wo-
man alleged TO be Ratcliffe'swife. Both,
the correspondent states, confirm the
story Of Ratcliffe's marriage in Eng
land. They say, further, that the wife's
father has In his possession a letter
written by Radcliffe while In the United
states in which he asks after the health
OF his son. This letter Is addressed to
the woman whom II is claimed he mar-
rled there.
Argument on the application for a
certificate Of reasonable doubt in the
case OF Edward J. Ratclife, the actor
who was convicted Of wife beating, was
heard by Judge Diokey of the supreme
court in Brooklyn. NJ. L. Towns, coun-
sci for the actor, presented the case OF
his client on Monday, and yesterday As
sistant District Attorney Lloyd repre-
sented the people.
In his argument Mr. Lloyd declared
that Ratcliffe's motive had been to kill
his wife. and charged that his trip to
Chicago had been made with intent TO
escape the jurisdiction Of the court
Then he turned his attention to Mr.
Towns, criticising his argument made
on Monday. He declared it had been
filled with poetry and irrelevant express
sions. He charged Mr. Towns with be-
ing impudent to the court-so impudent.
he said. that any judge less lenient than
Dickey would have fined the lawyer for
contempt Of court
District Attorney Gardiner says that
If what Assistant District Attorney
Lloyd has informed him is true. Ratcliffe
will be tried for blgamy. Ratcliffe, on
the stand, testified that he was not
married until he made Alice de Lacy
his wife, and IL it is proved that he was
married to the woman in England. then
he is guilty Of perjury as well as big
