withdrawal of their lines within two days
They will evacuate Lares, San Sebastian

Under the armistice they could not with
draw their outposts without permission.
Detachments of the 1ith Infantry will oc-
cupy this territory and raise the American
flag. The abandonment of other outposts
will follow.
The Spanish commissioners understand
perfectly that the evacuation of the islands
must be in accordance with the terms of
the protocol, as soon as transports can be
procured
Transports from the fever-infected ports
of Cuba cannot, they say, be used to con-
vey uninfected troops from Porto Rico. The
troops from Cuba and Porto Rico are to be
landed at different ports in Spain.
The Spanish authorities here cannot con-
troll the transports in this respect They
