PREPARE TO FIGHT.
Spanish Troops I'm Puerto Rico Con-
centrating Mt San Juan-Wain-
wright Again Commended.

ST. Thomas, d. w. l., July 28.-The
Spanish troops at Puerto Rico are be-
ing withdrawn from the outlying
towns and are concentrating upon San
Juan. The defenses of the capital are
being strengthened.
Madrid, July 2s.-An official dispatch
from Puerto Rico says: On Tuesday
the Americans advanced in the direc-
ton of Yauco, fighting most of the
way. Seven hundred Spanish regulars
and volunteers encountered them and
an engagement ensued which lasted
the whole night and only ceased with
dawn on the following day. The Amer
leans were obliged to withdraw to the
coast.
Washington, July 2s.-Nothing was
heard from the Miles expedition
Wednesday at the war department.,
but Capt. Higginson, the senior officer
of the naval convoy, forwarded brief
cablegram that gave keen delight to
the navy department because of the
unstinted praise it accorded to pop
ular and dashing young officer, "Dick"
Wainwright, the commander of the
little Gloucester. Wainwright, having
been commended by his superior, Hig-
ginson, for his actions at Guanica, en-
joys the solitary distinction of being
the only officer attached to SIMPSONS
fleet who has been twice officially
commended since the war began.

PLAN NOT CHANGED.
The Hawaiian Commission to Sail
for Honolulu About Au-
gust 10.

Washington, July Ex-senator Nor
gan, of Alabama, a member of the
Hawaiian annexation commission, saw
President Mckinley Thursday after
noon and suggested to him the wisdom
OF delaying the departure and work
of the commission until about Oct ober
in view Of the existing Spanish
American situation, and the desira-
bility of adjudication first of matters
connected with Hawaii's land laws.
The president, however, thought tha!
it was best to proceed with the i'm
portant work at once and accordingly
the present plan of the commission to
sail from San Francisco on August 10
remains unchanged. The president in
the course of the conference expressed
himself as highly pleased over the en-
thusiastic reception of the news of the
annexation in the islands.

The Spanish government will combat
to the last against a cession of Puerto
Rico to the United States. 1t would
much rather sacrifice one of the Phil
ippine islands, contending that Puerto
Rico has always been loyal and out
side the scope of the war.
London, July 3O.-A special dispatch
from Madrid says:
Though it is not likely that the govern
ment will decide to prolong the war be-
cause of Puerto Rico. considerable feel
ing is manifested, and every possible dip
lomatlc effort will be made to retain 1t.
Apparently there is little objection to ced-
ing coaling station in the Philippines
provided Spanish sovereignty is respected
in the island, which, in the opinion of the
government and official circles generally,
will afford compensation in commerce for
the loss of the Antilles, besides procuring
occupation for the West Indian army in
reestablishing Spanish rule. The Amer
lean reply is still anxiously awaited.
Judging from press opinions anything be-
yond the cession of Cuba will be considered
harsh and unjust This is the unanimous
feeling among even the strongest advocates
of peace. The people are beginning to real
iZe that peace will mean almost a total
loss of colonies, and looking to the deli
cate and difficult position of the queen
regent, great care is still necessary to in
duce the nation to accept the terms. Ac-
cording to FL Liberal, the government
would not allow even the loss of some of
the Philippines to hinder the conclusion of
peace, because it is very doubtful whether
the country would endorse sending an
army of 10000 men to crush the rebellion"

BISMARCK rs DEAD.
The German Statesman Passes
Away at FREDERICKSBURG.
His Last Hours Marked by Painful
Scenes-Death Agony Was Long
Brief Sketch of the Remark
able Mans Career.

Berlin, Aug. bismarck is dead.
Germany's man of blood and iron"
passed away at 1920 o'clock Saturday
night at his castle of Friedrichsruhe.
The entire nation-the nation which
he unified by his indomitable will and
unyielding purpose-is shocked by the
sudden news.
It appears that the ex-chancellor's
death was not precipitated by sudden
complications, but was rather the Gull
mination of chronic diseases-neu-
ralgia of the face and Inflammation
of the veins-which kept him in con-
slant pain, that was borne with the
iron fortitude which might have been
expected. The beginning of the end
dates from July 20, when the prince
was confined to his bed. He had been
several days Frustrated before an ink
ling of his decline reached the world.
Death Agony Prolonged.
When DR.. Schweninger arrived at
FREDERICKSBURG railway station short
ly after ten o'clock Saturday evening
the two counts Won Rantzau were
waiting with carriage, and the ply
stefan was driven rapidly to the cap
itol where he found the prince already
unconscious. According to an unoffi-
cial account the death agony was pro-
longed. The prince died without TAX
ing leave of the family. For fully an

AN EARNEST PROTEST.
President Mckinley Is Urged Not to
Allow Spanish Rule in Philip
pines to Continue.

London, July 30. - Natives of the
Philippine islands and British SUBJ
jects who have interests there are
alarmed by the reports that the peace
terms include the return of those
islands to Spain. AS result they have
held meeting here, and, after con-
sultation with the Philippians in
France and Belgium, have cabled to
President Mckinley and to Senator
Davis, chairman of the foreign rela-
tions committee. The message to
President Mckinley is as follows:
THE Philippians resident in Europe pray
you not to abandon the Philippine islands,
for the sake Of peace with Spain. Our
loyalty and trust In the honor of Amer
lea entitle us to your consideration and
support. To hand over our country again
to Spain is contrary to the humanitarian
proceedings of your noble nation and the
wish of all classes Civilization, trade and
order all will be lost If Spanish authority
is reestablished in any FORM
The message to Senator Davis says:
"A cast-iron agreement binding Spain
to form government satisfactory to the
inhabitants is preposterous. To retain her
sovereignty means deception, oppression
and bigotry We placed our rights in
your hands and pray you to induce the
president and senate not to abandon in
tbs hour of peace people who, trusting
in American honor, fight for their COM
mon interests"

THE TERMS OFFERED.
What Spain Must Concede II She
Wishes Peace-NO Money In
demnity to he Demanded.

Washington, July 30.-The cabinet
Friday discussed the presidents an
swer to SPANS peace proposal, and
reached the following decisions:
The absolute surrender of Puerto
Rico to the United States
Recognition of the independence Of
Cuba.
Cession of one of the Ladrone is
lands to the United States as a coal
United States of at least coaling sta
ton in the Philippines.
The question undecided is, what dis
position shall be made of the Philip
pine islands as whole. 1t can be
stated that there is practically no
difference Of opinion in the cabinet
on the question of the retention or the
Philippine islands as a whole, all the
members being opposed to our acqui-
sition of these islands. There has
been no decision, however, as yet on
the extent to which the government
will go in it's decision respecting the
future of these islands, but it is prob
able that the answer of the president
will express the willingness of this
government to leave the matter of
the future government of the Philip
pines entirely in the hands of joint
commission to be appointed by this
government and the government of
Spain. The probability is that the
United States will insist upon guar
antee of certain reforms in govern
ment in the Philippine islands.
Our answer will make no mention
of the money indemnity. Neither will
there be any armistice at all. The
answer will be in the nature of an ul-
timatum, and if Spain does not &C

peace, nor was any reference made to
Cuba, the Philippines, Puerto Rico or
other Spanish possessions. The evil
dent purpose of the Madrid authorities
was to first learn whether the United
States would treat on the subject of
peace, and after that take up such
terms as the two parties might sug-
gest. Neither was there any sugges-
ton from the Spanish government
that an armistice be established pend
ing the peace negotiations. 1t seemed
natural, however, from the PROPOSE
ton that formal peace negotiations be
entered upon, that pending their
conclusion a cessation of hostilities
would occur.
Owing to the Importance of the
communication the ambassador
adopted the usual diplomatic proce-
dure of reading the communication
from the original, in French, the
translation being submitted by M.
Thiebeaut. In the conversation which
followed the reading of their propo-
sition neither the president nor the
ambassador entered upon the question
of the terms of peace. The instruc-
lions of the ambassador had confined
him to the one essential point of
opening peace negotiations, and it was
evident that the president desired to
consider the proposition at this mo-
ment before giving any definite reply.
It was finally determined that the
president would consult the members
CT his cabinet concerning the PROPOSE,
ton. and after decision had been ar
rived at NJ. Cambon would then be in.
Tited to the white house for further
conference and for a final answer from

the call closed a brief official mem
orandum was agreed upon, in order

on a subject which had advanced be

NOT COL. cULvER's FAULT.
War Department Explains Why the
Fifth Illinois Regiment Was
Turned Back.

Washington, July 29.-The war de-
partmelt officials declare most posi-
lively that Col. Culver, of the Fifth
Illinois volunteers at Chickamauga, is
an innocent victim of misrepresenta-
ton. 1t is reported from Chickamauga
that because this regiment was turned
back from the Puerto Rican expedi-
ton many men had deserted, the
morale of the regiment had been de-
stroyed, and the failure to secure ac-
tive service had been charged up to
the secret efforts of Col. Culver to
keep it from going to the front. 1t is
said at the department that as a mat
ter of fact the colonel has done all in
his power to meet the demands of the
regiment in that respect, but he has
been the victim of circumstances over
which he had no control. When the
Fifth Illinois had been ordered to
Puerto Rico a delegation of Indiana
people awaited on the president and
presented the fact that although there
were three regiments fully equipped
and ready for service none had been
ordered to the front. 1t happened
that of three Illinois regiments avail
able two had been sent forward in adj
vance of the Fifth, so that the depart
ment felt obligated, to avoid a charge
of discrimination, to substitute one of
the Indiana regiments for this par
ticular Illinois regiment. With this
order Col. Culver had absolutely moth
ing to do and did not even know that
i. was in contemplation.
The disappointment of the Fifth Il
linois at being turned back after it had
marched to Rossville has so disheart-
ened many that they have no further
ambition for military life. Col. Culver
denies any responsibility for the or
ders calling the men back to camp and

Washington, Aug. 1.-Gen. Miles, in
command of the Puerto Rican expedi-
ton, sent the following dispatch to

lie at the war department at ten
o'clock Sunday night:
Ponce, Puerto Rico July 31.-Secretary

ammunition. Four-fifths of the people are
overjoyed at the arrival of the army. Two
thousand from one place have volunteered
to serve with 1t. They are bringing in

listing tariff remaining meanwhile in force.
AS to the government and military occu-
patton, l have already given instructions
based upon the instructions issued by the
president in the case of the Philippine
islands and similar to those issued at San
tiago de Cuba. MILES,
Major General Commanding
Ponce, Puerto Rico, July 20, via st.
Thomas, d. w. l., Aug. mo forward
movement of the army is expected for
several days. The transports with
Gen. Brooke's army corps and the re-
mainder of the first corps are arriving
slowly. Our troops will probably re-
main here quietly until the bulk of the
army has disembarked. Gen. Miles will
retain his headquarters at the custom
house at the port of Ponce, while Gen.
Wilson will be in immediate command
of the troops in the city. Capt. ALI
son has been appointed provost mar
shall and with the aid of the local con-
stabulary has preserved excellent or
der, although almost the entire popu-
lation of the city remained in the
streets celebrating the arrival of their
American liberators until long after
midnight Friday. Business in the city
has enjoyed great boom since the
arrival of the Americans.
The news that Spain had consented
to sue for peace was received here and
was at once taken to Gen. Miles. The
general wrinkled his grave brow when
he read it and said he did not know
what effect it would have on his ex-
petition, but he purposed to push on
ahead and take San Juan pending or
ders from the president. A dispatch
boat carried information out TO the
fleet and there was a celebration at
the first indication. of weakening on
SPANS part.
