at the Surrender Without Further
Bioodshed-The Days Events.

WASHINGTON, July 1s.-The Ameri
can flag is now waving over Santiago.
The first message conveying the news
of Santiago's formal surrender was re-
ceived at the White House shortly be-
fore IL o'clock. just as the president
was preparing to go to church. About
five o'clock in the afternoon Gen.
Shafter forwarded a dispatch that
graphically portrayed situation en-
tirely satisfactory from the American
point of view.
The first message did not come from
Shafter, but from the vigilant signal
officer who has before shown that he
was alert for vital events.
The first message was brief, saying
only that the surrender had been ac-
comptished: that the Spanish troops
marched out of the trenches. one regi-
ment at time, stacking arms for de-
livery to the American forces, and that
the Spanish flag had been hauled
down.
Secretary Alger and Adjt.-Gen. Cor :
bin were at the war department at the
time and were soon apprised of the
news, but as it did not come in the
usual form as a report from Gen. Shat
ter the fact xas not bulletined-

Secretary Alger expressed his deep
qualification at the elimination of the
Santiago campaign. He had fully ex-
pected the surrender to be formally
carried out at nine o'clock yesterday
morning, according to Gen. Skaters
telegram Saturday night, vet it was
relief to know that the last chance for
parley and Spanish diplomacy had
passed and that our flag was now fiy-
ing over the city.
1T is magnificent achievement, "
said he, land most of all it
is tribute to the bravery,
pluck and endurance of our Ameri-
can soldiers. Now that their efforts
have brought final and complete sue
cess, l believe their campaign will be
recorded as one of the most glorious
pages of our military history. Not
more than 10000 men were engaged
when the most serious fighting oc.
CURED, bat they pushed forward and
created a condition which has brought
the surrender of 25, 600 men,
Later in the afternoon the official
dispatch came from Gen. Shafter, Civ
ing in brief military fashion an unus.
ually clear statement from the general
report of the days events. It was en-
tirely satisfactory from every point of
view, showing that the American army
was in control of a city that it would
cost 5000 lives to capture by storm.
Moreover it was very encouraging
from medical view, in that it showed,
contrary to what had been expected,
very little sickness and scarcely any
yellow fever in Santiago. but a great
deal of suffering and distress
The president. after his return from
church, had conference with Secre-
taries Alger and Long and Capt.
Crowinshield, chief of the bureau of
navigation and member of the naval
war board. It was stated after the
meeting that plans had been discussed
for an aggressive movement, in which
both army and navy will take part,
against Porto Rico.
Before going to the White House,
Secretary Alger had been in conference
with Gen. Brooke for two hours. They
had before them a large number of
maps of Porto Rico and the plans OF
campaign were discussed from every
point of view. 1t is expected that Gen.
Miles will go direct from Santiago to
Porto Rico, and that Gen. Stone and
Col. Michler of his staff will leave
from New York in few days on the
Resolute to join the general at San
tiago.
During the day the secretary of war
Endorsed the plan of Col. Hecker for
the transportation of the Spanish
forces at Santiago back to Spain. 1t
provides for an aggregate of 1000
Spanish officers with first class cabin
accommodations and $4,000 soldiers
with third class steerage passage.
The circular says that the Spanish
forces will be delivered on board at
Santiago for transportation to Cadiz,
Spain. or such other port as may be
designated.
1t is provided that the accommoda-
tions are to be kept up to the standard
required by the United States army
regulations as to officers and men in
regard to galleys, ventilation, etc.
The subsistence furnished is to be
equal to the prescribed United States

THE HOSPITAL SHIP SoLACE.
Arrival from Cuba with Spanish ano
American Wounded-Seven Deaths
During the Passage.

NEW YORK, July 1s.-The United
States hospital ship Solace arrived at
the navy yard, Brooklyn, yesterday
from Guantanamo, via Old Point Com
fort and Newport News, Va. When
$50 wounded American and Spanish
officers and men on board.
Seven of the Spanish seamen died
during the voyage, but all the other
sufferers were put ashore at Old Point
and Newport News. Surgeon Street
and his assistants, DIR. Stokes,
Bogert and Smith. were busy night
and day for the last two weeks at
tending to the injured on board, some
of whom were frightfully wounded
during the destruction of Admiral Ger
vera's feet on July 3. Capt. Conchas,
of the Maria Teresa, who was Adj
mira1 Cervera's chief of staff. and four
Spanish officers, were treated during
the trip. They expressed themselves
as being surprised and very much
pleased at the treatment they received
from the Americans.
There were on board the Solaee 43
American soldiers and 81 sea men and
AZ Spanish seamen among the sick
and wounded when the vessel sailed
from Guantanamo.
Many of the Spanish seamen suffered
intensely owing to their weakened con-
dition at the time they received their
wounds. They told the doctors that
for several days prior to Admiral Ger
vera's dash from Santiago harbor. they
had had very little food and were COM
PEELED to work in the trenches on land
during the day, and attend to their
duties aboard ship during the night
In fact, they said, they were on the
point of starvation, and were desperate
enough TO attempt anything far a
change.
AT first. when the Spanish seamen
were brought. aboard, they thought
they were going to be killed, but after
couple OF days their fears were al
layed when they found that they were
treated so kindly.
The Solace will remain here for
eight or ten days, during which time a
new ice plant will be put aboard.
There viii also be necessary repairs
made in her machinery, and when she
sails she will carry large quantity o.:
supplies for the starving people OF
