Authorities Dlsp'cnsed at the
Breach of Good r. cling.

Denver, July pa special from
Washington TO the Rocky Mountain
News says:
General Skaters course in disaf-
fecting Garcia. the Cuban general, is
regarded by the President and his
Cabinet as unwisc and undiplomatic.
and it was the declared purpose of
the President to thus inform General
Shnfter.
No public rebuke will be given the
general, as such action. ii is thought,
would magnify the affair and make
it more difficult of arrangement, but
the commander of the army of occu-
patton will not escape without the in
formation that his doings in the Gar
ella connection are not regarded with
favor.
General Leonard Wood. governor
of the surrendered territory. was to-
night instructed to repair so far rs
possible the harm and remove the i'll
feeling caused by General Skaters
brusquc methods. Besides being n
man of the greatest personal courage,
General Wood is as smooth and wise
as n diplomat. He was instructed to
leave no means untried and no eff
fort unmade to conciliate the out
ragged feelings of the Cuban general.

days Cabinet meeting. There has
been no change of the sentiments of

bans: no alteration of the plans and
Intentions of the United States rela-
tive to the liberation of the island
from the Spanish control and estab.
fishing II free government. He
wished this made plain to all inter
ested.
The foregoing comes directly from
one of the Cabinet officers.
The paragraphs in Garcia's letter
relating to General Skaters failure
to inform him of the Santiago surren-
der and the following sentences at
tracted special attention:
Il was neither honored, sir. with Il
kind word from you inviting myself.
nor any other officer of my staff to
represent the Cuban army on that
memorable occasion.
FINALLY. | know that you have left
| in power at Santiago the same Span
Ish authorities that for three years |
have fought as enemies of the inde-
| pendcnce of Cuba.
The facts set forth let in n flood of
light. The failure of Garcia to be
present mt the Santiago flag raising.
and the comments on his absence had
been noticed by the President. who
had been led to believe that Garcia
had remained away from the scene on
the day of the surrender ont of Il per-
verse spirit.
1t was represented to him that the
Cubans' hatred for the Spanish was so
bitter that he would not be present
on an occasion where he would be oh.
| liged to treat his enemies with at
least n show of courtesy.
Although no information has been
received Mt the War Department
showing that Miles orders to issue
food and ammunition TO the Cubans
had been abrogated, orders were
wired today directing the continu-
ance of supply issue. The action was
taken in view of newspaper reports
that the supplies had been cut Off on
General Shaftcr's orders. The gen
eral sentiment of the Cabinet was
that nothing should be done to
esfrange or cmbittcr the Cubans.

New York. July o4.-The World 81,

New York. July 24.-The World says:
A lawyer has been retained by the
steamship companies who We're unsuc-
ccssful bidders for transporting the
22.OO0 captured Spanish prisoners from
Santiago TO Spain and will begin acton
10 have the contract made by the gov
ernment with the Campagnia
Transailantique Espanola set aside
The ground taken is that the successful
bidder is n licensed corporation of n
nation with whom we are at war. and
that according 10 n measure passed by
the Spanish Cortes, one-half of the re
cnipts of every corporation doing bust
ness under the Spanish government
must be surrendered to the government
IN help defray the expenses of the war.
Ey letting the contract 10 n Spanish
corporation the government indirectly
pays into the Spanish treasury an
amount equal to one-half of the con
tract stipulation. Also that the gov

In an order to the army relative to
the health and efficiency OF the SOL
diers, Gen. Miles says: THE history
of other armies has demonstrated that
in a hot climate abstinence from the
use of Intoxicating drinks is essential
to continued health and efficiency"
This precautionary advice of Gen.
Miles to officers and men of the army
might be needed with profit by civil
ians who mistakenly suppose that al
coholic beverages are beneficial in hot
weather. The truth Is directly the con-
trary. Other things being equal, he
endures hot weather best who is least
addicted to the use of intoxicating
liquors of any kind. The above re-
marks apply also to cold weather.

one-third OF the entire class. have re-

the funds at the disposal of the Mculty

of the members of the class of '9S dur

poses was 1862 per capita, in the senior
year s764. There are several very rich

has been twenty-five carloads of ore
shipped to smelters at Omaha and
Denver for treatment. OF late years
there has been but little work done on
the property, because there were so
many small owners interested In it and
they could not be got together to agree
on a line or plan Of operations. but the
gentlemen who have now purchased
this property lately got them a to-
gether ard secured their signature to
the document which transfers this valu
able mining property to them. The
shaft is down a depth Of l07 feet, and
the width Of the vein is ten feet at the
bottom G. the shaft The ore taken
from this mine will run from thirty to
forty per cent in lead, fifteen to thirty
ounces in silver, and from two to four
dollars in gold to the ton. The vein is
a trne assure one, cutting the schist in
two and lies between we'll defined
granite walls. and being on the same
belt as the keystone, it is without a
doubt a continuation of that belt of ore
deposits, With a new management
there is no question Of this property
being able TO at IN early date resume
the shipping Of ore to eastern smelters
for treatment, and with the present
price of lead it will at once become a
dividend paying property.-Journal.
