Porto Rico will inevitably fall into the
hands of the Americans Captain Gen.
eral Macias has been instructed to OBJ
tain terms like those obtained by Cen
eral Toral or better, so as to save
Spanish honor as much as possible.
SPANISH ADVISED TO SURREN-
DER.
PONCE Porto Rico), Aug. 5, via st.
Thomas, Aug. delayed in transmits
sion).-United States Consul Hanna has
received word from the foreign Consuls
at San Juan, the capital of the island,
that they have advised the Spanish Off
GERS to surrender to the Americans. The
Spaniards, however, in reply, announc-
ed that they had resolved to fight.
Thereupon the Consule notified the
Spanish commander Captain General
Macias, that they would establish a
neutral zone beyond Bayamo and Rio
Piedras in which TO gather the foreign
residents and their portable property,
in order to insure their safety in the
event of a bombardment of the place
by the American forces. The Conusls
sent a similar notification to General
Miles.
In spite of this brave talk it is un-
derStoOd that the Spanish officers OF
every rank will refuse to fight or to i'm
peril their lives in defense of San Juan.
General Miles held a council of war
with his Generals to-day, and then rode
away, going in the direction of the
front
A battalion of the Eleventh Regular
Infantry has been sent to reinforce
General Roy Stone. The American
army will move forward in three col
umns.
The United States transport Massa-
chusettS, which went ashore off the
coast, has been floated.

sipation by proftless attacks upon forts
and ports.
A distinguished naval officer to-day
called attention to the fact that most
serious result might have followed the
disclosure of the demoralized condition
of our arms at Santiago had not the
navy been at hand to protect it.
Notwithstanding the best efforts of
censorship over telegraph and mails, it
is believed that the Spanish Govern
ment had acquired knowledge of the
situation at Santiago but was power
less to profit by it, for the reason that
the navy blocked the@way and pre-
vented the dispatch of reinforcements
and supplies to the Spanish army in
Cuba, the lack of which obliged Cen
eral Toral to surrender.

Distinguished Mexicans.

A distinguished delegation of Mex
ican citizens were in Ell Paso Satur-
day. The following gentlemen COM
posed the party: Ignacio de Ia Torres,
Tomas de Ia Torres, Enrique Lebo de
Sorres, Juan Gutierres and Alfredo
Saldivar. These gentlemen passed
through this city several weeks ago
and have spent their time in the east
selecting thorough bred horses and
Durham cattle for there ranches near
the City of Mexico. Senior Ignacio
Torres is q son-in law of President
Diaz of the republic of Mexico. In re-
gard to the Spanish American trouble
the party guarded their remarks re-
markably we'll. They acknowledge,
however, that they themselves were
neutral and thought, possibly, that the
majority of the Mexican people would
take the same stand. Senior Torres as
sured the HERALD representative that
President Oiaz was Watching the
border closely and would prevent an
outbreak At all hazards. 81 must say
that the cause of this war is not tho
roughly understood by all of our peo-
pie, said one of the party, "snd the
ignorant, of course, sympathize with
the under dog, which is Spain's pre-
sent position, but the intelligent posi-
tion of my country is heartily in favor
of Cuban Independence"

Illinois Republicans.

SPRINGFIELD, H., June 13.-The ar.
irving trains today are bringing hun.
dreds of republicans whe come as dele.
gates or interested spectators for the
state convention tomorrow, and also
for the meeting of the state republican
league which will be held tomorrow'e
night in Representatives hall of the
state capitol. The state convention
will be the largest of its
kind ever held in Illinois,
and will contain 1,521 dele
gates, of whom SIS will re-
present Cook county. There will be
only two nominations to make, and
those for relatively unimportant Of
fices-state treasurer and superip-
tendent of public instruction, but
nevertheless the convention will be an
interesting one in so far as it is likely
to be productive of an acrimonious con-
test between the so-called republican
state machine and its opponents.

MOBILE, June 13.-The dregs'of last
years fever is appearing in several
places in modified form. Since Satur.
day two towns in the interior of Mis-.
sissippt, Hsttiesburg and Shubuts
have been placed under the ban.
New Orleans lost no time quarsntin.
ing both, after cases of yellow fever
had been reported, and Mobile quickly
followed suit.
Trains going north from New Or.
leans are heavily laden with passen.
gers intending to spend the summer
north and east, but the infection ol
fear is in the abstract here, and no re-
petition of such an experience as tha,

LEAVE KEY WEST.
Thirty Transports With Nineteen
MarshlpS.

WASHINGTON, June 1.-THE first
division of the United States army OF
invasion will probably leave Key West
tonight, under Gen. Shafter. The
expedition consists of 80 transports
with 10 warships.
KEY WEST, June 13. 3.-Finsl orders
were received this morning for the
feet. It is ordered that when the
Windward Passage is reached the
transports shall divide, half going to
Santiago and half to Porto Rico.
WASHINGTON, June 13.-It Is stated
here this morning that seventeen
thousand troops, under Gen. Shaft er
left Santiago last night or early this
morning, and are now on their way to
Cuba. The transports were conveyed
by fourteen warships, headed by the
battlesh1p Indiana.
Its expected that the troops will
reach Santiago Wednesday night, and
begin to disembark Thursday.
The first point of attack will be the
city of Guantanamo, Is miles inland,
connected by rail with Caimanera,
which is already under the American
flag.
Guantanamo Bay, it is stated will be
q base of supplies and shelter for the
American fleet and must therefore be
free from any menace of danger. On
the shore of the bay will be dumped
thousands of tons of coal from colliers
sent there for the purpose. This will OBJ
viate the necessity of frequent returns
to Key West, or even coaling at sea.
The movement upon Guantanamo,
however, will be only diversion as the
town will not require . large force for
its capture. The main attack by the
army with undoubtedly be upon San
tiago.
WASHINGTON, June I3.-The in
formation is given out st noon from the
adjutant generals Office tn at all troops
have left Key West for Santiago.
KEY WEST, Juue ia splendid
morning when, soon after daylig ht,
General Skaters command on score
of transports conveyed by fourteen
great wsrships, left the harbor on
their great mission to Santiago and
other Cuban points. It was the finest
display of force seen since the war
opened, the entire heet representing
over twenty thousand wildly
enthusiastic soldiers and sailors. They
will stop 1T Dry Tortugas for . few
hours and leave At sunset on their
straight journey.
