Lawton's Testimony.
Washington, Nov. 4.--Acting for the
war investigating committee, Colonel
DENLY took the testimony today of
General Lawton, who commanded the
I'd division, 5th corps, in the Santiago
campaign, and who has but recently
been relieved of the command of the de-
partment of Santiago. In speaking of
the voyage over, he said there was
some confusion owing to misunder-
standing of orders, but did not believe
that any real hardships had been occa-
stoned thereby. After giving the par
ticulars of the landing. General Law
ton described his march to Siboney, re-
ferred to the battle of Guasimas and
told how he had pushed forward toward
Ell Caney and prepared for the fight
there. He said that on the morning be-
fore beginning the battle, after having
laid his plans before General Shafter,
he rode with his brigade commanders
over the grounds. Referring to the re-
suit of the battle at Ell Caney, he said:
Il had received imperative orders to
move to the left, to the right of Gen
eral Wheeler's command, but my stu-
alton was such that it was impractical
BILE for me to leave Ell Caney until
had captured it." Lawton said his di-
vision lost 410 men killed and wounded
but all the wounded We're accounted
for.
Knowing there was going to be
fight, how does it happen you did not
have enough litters, enough surgeons
and a proper hospital corpse" Colonel
DENLY asked. "Well, 7 cannot say
there were not enough" Lawton re-
piled. How do you account for the
fact that the medical men did not pro-
vide themselves with everything neces-
sary for taking care of the wounded 2"
II think they did provide themselves
with everything they thought neess-
sary, considering the material they had
to choose from"

ARMY and NAVY PREPARED
United States in Much Better Shape to
Resume Hostilities Than at the
Outbreak of the War.

Paris, Nov. 4.-The statement is
printed here today that in the joint ses.
sion of the peace commissioners today
the Americans insisted upon the com.
plete surrender of Spain's sovereignty
over the Philippine islands, and il
event of the Spanish commissioners
refusing to agree, Judge Day, presi-
dent of the American commission, act
ing under instructions from Washing

the seeming haste is due to a desire to
settle negotiations before the elections
in the United States.
The Americans expect to patiently
weigh all points involved and carefully
consider the arguments of the Span
iards. The two commissions met this
afternoon. The Americans We're aware
before the session opened that the
Spaniards would decline their proposal
made Monday. The joint session today
lasted two hours. The Spaniards re-
fused the propositions of the Ameri-
cans, but negotiations were not broken
off. While no formal counter PROPOSE
ton was made, there was a discussion
of the Philippine question outside the
The two commissions adjourned until
Tuesday.
The Navy is Ready.
Washington, Nov. 4.-The admins
tration is waiting results from the
peace commission with equanimity in
realization that the government is per-
fectly we'll prepared for any turn ne
gotiations may take. The navy especial
ly, is prepared, should it come to re-
of hostiities, far in advance
of it's condition at the outbreak of the
chimes of the North Atlantic squadron
have been docked, cleaned and thor
oughly refitted at the New York and
Norfolk navy yards. Admiral Dewey
has also taken precautions in the case
of his own vessels by having dispatched
them, one by one, to the big British dock
at Hongkong where they have been
placed in as good condition as was pos
sible outside of the home docks.
Expert military authorities say that
the army as whole, though smaller,
is a more formidable weapon than it
was at any time during the war, the
troops now in service having had the
discipline of several months of hard
training.
Admiral Bunce telegraphed the Navy
today that the cruiser Buff
falo sailed at noon for the Philippines
via Suez, and the gun boat Helena sail
ed yesterday. With the accessions of
Barker's squadron of transports and
golfers, Admiral Dewey will have a
formidable fleet, probably second in Of
