United States garrisons, as well as
suggestions as to supplies for the army
and other matters of detail, which
must be considered before an army is
sent to Cuba. One of the most impor-
tant features of the later reports is
that the evacuation of the island by
the Spaniards may take place sooner
than first anticipated. The commission
has been informed that 80 Spanish
transports are now on their way to
Cuba and that they will be able to take
away large number of troops. These
transports are expected to arrive in
Cuba within a short time. The war
department is now making arrange
ments to send troops to Cuba as soon
as the Spaniards evacuate and will be
ready to occupy different points as fast
as the Spaniards move away.

BAD FUN WITH HIM.
An Artistic Landsman Gets Some
Pointers from the Jolly Sea
ROVcrs.

The sailor man, when in deep water, can
not conceal the feeling of superiority with
which he regards the untarred landlubber.
Some of the noncOmbatants who sailed the
gulf and the Caribbean during the war
learned to keep an eye on the mariners, and
others gained painful experience before they
got their sea legs.
An artist who boarded grimy tugboat
clad In white linen found his coat covered
with coal dust when he was day from port
and decided to wash it. He filled bucket
with sea water and fell to work. When he
had scrubbed the garment for 20 minutes he
was satisfied.
Then it occurred to him to starch the coat
pockets. He did SO, and pulled out-his gold
watch.
He was perturbed. The crew laughed and
he rebuked them. They bided their time.
Then one of them told the artist that the
proper way torestore the coat to its normal
color was to tie line to it, heave it over
board and tow it for few hours. The artist
did so.
When he went below deck hand hauled
the coat aboard, united the line and hiding
the, coat made fast a ragged piece of white
| duck and threw it overheard.
When the owner of the coat pulled in his

was that shark had seized the coat, unit

|GREAT SURPRISE
Gen. Corbin Issues Orders POStpOning
the Occupation of Cienfuegos.
Spanish Troops May No Longer Delay Their
Eyacuation-Thirty Transports Are
Now on Their Way to Cuba to
Take Away Troops.

WASHINGTON, Nov, 23.-Great changes
have been made tn the plans for the
occupation of Cuba. The order issued
by Adjt. Gen. COrbin postporing the
occupation of CienfuegOs until January
l was a great surprise, but it was based
upon representations made by army
surgeons that the hygienic conditions
in the vicinity of that place would
be very injurious to the soldiers.
Gen. Miles has also advised against
Cienfuegos. as has also Col. Hecker,
who is in Cuba at present investigating
Cienfuegos and other sites in the vfcin-
ity for camps. In regard to Havana
only $4,000 troops will be sent there,
and these will be sheltered in tents
and not in barracks. The quarter
master general has been directed to
provide tentage for 1900 troops,
and these will be sent to Havana at
once. The government fears disease if
the soldiers are placed in the barracks
so soon after the departure of the
Spanish troops.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-The Cuban
evacuation commission has made quite
extended reports to the war depart
ment concerning the situation in the
island, relating largely to camps, the
conditions and proposed sites for

President Decides That They Be Di-

He Causes the appointment Of Board to
DEVISE Some Acceptable Plan for
the Distribution OF the Prizes
"A List Being Prepared.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-FOr some
time past there have been signs that
disagreement might be expected be-
tween the army and navy over the po-
session of the Spanish ordnance which
was surrendered in various places in
Cuba and Porto Rico. The navy has
claimed that where it's ships fired up
on and silenccd Notifications the guns
by right fell to it's share but the mill
tary authorities being in pos
session and having received
the surrender of these place
have asserted their right. The guns in
most eases are not of type desired by
either of the ordnance bureaus for use,
but all of them have historical value
and some of them are remarkably beau
tiful examples of the gun founders art
in the last century. The authorities
at Annapolis have sought to secure
possession of some of these, while the
war department has been beset by pa
triotic organizations desiring to secure
one or more of them. The president
has finally decided to divide this cap
tured ordnance fairly between the two
branches of the service. He has just
caused the appointment of a board con-
sisting of Maj. George III. Hopkins, as
sistant adjutant general United States
volunteers, military aide to the secre-
tary of war, and Capt. Francis Dickens,
attached to the navigation bureau of
the navy department, to devise some ac-
ceptable plan for the distri button of
this ordnance, and this board has al
ready taken steps to secure lists of the
guns captured from the ordnance bu-
reau of the war department and the
navigation bureau of the navy depart
ment.

BEST TIME TO KICK A MAN.
May Apply Your Boot
with Impunity.

Perk and Quirk were walking along the
crowded street, feeling very kindly toward
themselves and the rest of humanity Just
as they reached the middle of a crossing
one of those aggravating individuals who
walk one way and look another stepped di.
rectly in front of a cable car which was
rounding the corner. OF course the ca had
no fender on it. Nearly everybody in the
vicinity yelled, and naturally the Devil
dered man looked in the wrong direction.
Quirk didn't yell, though. He jumped to
the side Of the track and grabbed the man
by the collar and yanked him clear of tie
tracks and almost out of his shoes Then
he gave him another ferocious jerk to get
him out of the way of an express wagon,
and, getting him at proper range at the same
time, he gave the poor man kick that must
have driven his spine up into his hat. And
With the kick Quirk roared:
"Confound you, keep your eyes open when
you are on the street,"
Quirk looked unutterably savage, but Perk
tottered to the curb, sat down and laughed
until the tears came. Then he said:
"You are the only big enough idiot on
earth to save mans life and then kick
lin for it."-Chicago Times-Herald.

TUESDAYS CABINET MEETING
a Brief Telegram From Paris Sent by
Judge Day in Reference TO Mondays
Meeting of Commissioners

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-At the cab
met meeting Tuesday brief telegram
was read which had been sent from
Paris by Judge Day. 1t was sub
stantially in accord with the news
paper reports of Mondays proceedings,
although no reference was made to any
excitement attending the meeting or
to any open disagreement. 1t was
stated that the next meeting would
take place Wednesday. The cabinet
discussed the matter, and it was the
judgment of the members that there
will be at least one more meeting after
Wednesday even if the Spaniards have
concluded to reject the Americans
proposal.
The cablegram said that reply
from the Spanish commissioners to the
latest memorandum submitted by our
commissioners was expected at Wed
nesday's meeting. No intimation, how
ever, had reached here as to what the
Spanish reply would be. No doubt is
entertained among members of tht
cabinet that a treaty will be signed
within the next few days.
The cabinet also discussed the Cuban
situation, and it was developed that
the Spaniards hope to be able to com
plete the evacuation of Havana by De
