When spaniph Control Over the Island Of
Cnba BIust Cease.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct lin
structlons have been sent to the United
states military commission in Cuba, fix
ing December /, as the date when Span
ish control over the island must cease.
The commissioners acting upon these
instructions have notified the spaniards
that all ports and customs receipts and
the management of municipal affairs
will pass into the hands Of the Ameri-
can military commander in the island.
This order was not intended to work
hardship 10 the Spanish troops or gov
eminent, but 1t was thought best to FIX
q definite time to end Spanish rule and
to begin operations under the United
States. Il Is probable that United
States troops will go to Cuba before
that time. By December /, 1t is eK-
pected to have troops so stationed that
there will be no need of Spanish troops
to preserve order. The proclamations
that have been Issued by the President
establishing custom rates and defining
the manner In which Cuban territory
shall be governed viii prevail until 1t
becomes apparent that new regulations
are needed.
ON October is. Major General Brooke
viii assume absolute control Of the Is
land OF Porto Rico. 1t is possible that
all the Spanish troops will not have left
Porto Rico at that time; II so they Will
be quartered IN barracks until they can
be taken away. In the language Of
Secretary Alger, the United State5 will
he fba host and tho Snaniardg the
guests after October IS. The United
States will not help the remaining
troops to Spain at It's own expense.
That was no part Of the protocol. The
custom houses, the money received for
Z customs and the government Of the Is
land will pass completely from Spanish
control on the date set The present
custom regulations under proclamation
of the President will prevail.
