MORE SPANISH HONOR.
Garrison at Manila Want Il Fight
Before They Surrender.

MANILA, July % (via Hong Kong.
July 30.-The Spaniards are gradually
realizing that Spain has not been vic
torious; that the expected REINFORCE
rlents are not coming, and that the CON-
test is utterly hopeless. The insurgents
are in overwhelming numbers, and the
Spaniards can only obtain the bare ne
cessaries of life.
Only fortnight ago. Spanish nation
al pride was rampant, but it is now
merging into Indignation at SPANS
feebleness and regret that they were
born Spaniards While they will never
surrender without a fight, the Spanish
officers will jump at the first honorable
opportunity to surrender. They fear
national disgrace too much to give in
without a fight.
The fighting in the suburbs Is de-
sultory and the Americans are idle.
This has given rise to a report that
they had determined to suspend opera
tionS until September, and by that time
peace viii probably be concluded. Then
it is asserted here, the Americans may
permanently annex the Caroline islands
and the Ladrone islands, and possibly
abandon the Philippines with the eX-
ception Of keeping a coaling station
here.
Although the insurgents have re-
doubled their efforts, they have hither-
to been unable to capture the citadel
On the other hand, the Spaniards are
not able to re-establish their suzerain-
ty. Under the circumstances, it seems
evident that somebody must interfere
in the name of humanity.
Some inSurgent shells have been
thrown into the citadel, but they do not
appear to have done much damage.
The natives are reported to be starv-
ing by thousands and the Europeans
are also hard pressed for food.

The newspapers had been led, by
promises made earlier in the day by
members of the cabinet. to expect that
a statement would be given out ex-
planning the nature of the answer to
Spain, but to the disappointment Of
their representatives it was announc-
ed by Secretary Day that this had
been abandoned for the reason that to
make any statement at this point

of reducing to cipher the American

SHAFTER AND GARCIA.
Former Explains How the Latter
Was Disappointed at Santiago,

WASHINGTON, July 3O.-The war
department has received the following:
Santiago, July 29.1Hon: R. 4. Alger, SEQ
Of Saturday, July %, in which comments are
made as to my treatment of Gen. Garcia
I desire to say that Gen. Garcia was invited
tiago at the time I entered it, but he de-
clined upon the ground that the Spanish
civil officers were left in power. It was fully
explained to him that those officials were con-
tinued in power until 1t was convenient to
change them for others. Gen. Garcia's as
sistance to me has been purely voluntary on
his n part and ne was told at the beginning
except as he chose to give.
'The trouble with Gen. Garcia was that
place1,+in other. words. that we would turn
the city over to him. I explained to him
fully that we were at war with SPAIN and
that the question Of Cuban independence
Another grievance was that finding that
several. thousand men marched in without
opposition from Gen: Garcia. I extended my
gap, as saw that had to depend upon my
own men for any effective investment of the
place. -"ShafteY."
The differences which have arisen be-
tween Gen. Shafter and Gen. Garcia
are not regarded by the war officials
as serious, and little doubt Is expressed
that they will be amicably adjusted,
The dispatch Is in entire accord with
previous advices to the war department
concerning the incident to which Gen.
Shafter refers. 1t is evident from Gen.
Skaters dispatch and from other In
formation in the hands Of the war Of
ficials that some Of the statements in
Gen. Garcia's letter to Gen. Shaf.er
were incorrect. It was the understand
ing Of officials Of the war department
that Gen. Garcia had been invited to
be present at the formalities attend
ing the surrender Of Santiago, and this
understanding is corroborated by the
statements in Gen. Skaters dispatch
Of today.
Gen. Shafter was given an intima-
ton that 1t might be wise for him to
make a statement of his relations with
Garcia, which could be given to the
public, in order that any misapprehen-
sion concerning these relations which
might exist should be corrected. In
response to this intimation, Gen. Shat
ter sent the dispatch above quoted to
Gen. Alger.
A difficulty arising out of the differ
ence between Gen. Shafter and Gen.
Garcia has arisen in Santiago The
Spanish residents there have been led
to believe that Skaters army is TO
be ordered away from Santiago after
the Spanish troops now prisoners have
been transported to Spain. This has
given rise to fear in their minds that
they are to be left to the tender amen
tiles Of the Cubans. II they feared
the occupation of Santiago by the
American army, they are now doublv
fearful Of the results of it's departure
Appeals have been made to Gen. Shat.
ter not to withdraw the American SOL
diers from Santiago, and he has com
municated these appeals to the war Of
flee.
Assurances have been given to the
people of Santiago by the war depart
ment, through Gen. Shafter, that this
government Will stand squarely by the
terms Of the presidents proclamation

RGit. Cen. COrbin Was Deeply AZ
fected When He Heard the News.
WASHINGTON, July 3O.-Adjt. Gen.
Corbin was deeply affected today on
receiving news of the death at San
tiago of Capt. Charles Dodge, Twenty
fourth infantry. The captain was lieu
tenant in the same company that
formed Gen. Corbin's first command
when he became a captain, and he
looked upon him almost as a younger
brother. If anything was wanting to
show the extraordinarily high rate of
mortality among the officers of the
American army engaged in the battle
before Santiago, it is supplied by the
statement at the war department, that
with the death of Capt. Dodge the
TWenty-fourth infantry lost every
captain of the regiment. All the 9TH
er captains had been killed in action,
when Capt. Dodge, the sole survivor,
was stricken With yellow fever, which
led to his death yesterday.
The president and Secretary Alger
have not overlooked the sacrifices
made by the officers of Skaters army,
and have determined to do what they
can to provide for their families. A
few vacancies among the second lieu
tenancieS in the regular army exist,
and these Will be filled by appointing
the sons Of some of the officers who
lost their lives on the battlefield. The
war department is now taking steps
10 ascertain the particulars regarding
the families of these officers.

KEY WEST, Fla, July 30.-The Ex-
presso and Gibara schooners with like
CargOes. were taken by the gunboat
Nashville at the same time. Both YES
sells were lying in the harbor and made
no resistance. On the contrary the men
on board the two sChooners were eager
to be brought to this country, but En-
sign Snow, who took charge Of the
Gibara. put the crew Of six ashore and
brought away only the captain, Miguel
Castillo, his wife and child and cook.
All the papers aboard both schOOners
had been destroyed before the capture,
but 1t is known both vessels piled be-
tween Gibara and Havana. There were
about 100 tons aboard each. The Gibara
is in quarantine here. The Espresso
has not yet arrived
BY this time the American flag is
probably flying over Gibara. When the
prize schooner left that place the gun
beat Nashville was preparing to send
men assore to raise the flag. The Span
iardS had evacuated Gibara several
days before and fed to Holquin, and
the town was in the possession of 500
Cuban infantry and 200 cavalry when
the Nashville reached there. Order is
being maintained, but there is great
distress among the inhabitants on &C
count Of the scarcity of food
1t Is said that Gen. Luque, of the
Spanish army, placed 500 of his wound
ed soldiers in the hospital at Gibara,
and requested that the United States
