 On Board the Dispatch Boat Wanda, Off Siboney, July 16, 5 p. m., via Port Anto- nio, Sunday, July 17, 5 a. m., and King ston 7:15 a. m.-Nine o'clock tomorrow IS the time for the formal ending of the San tiago campaign. At that hour, under the terms of the agreement, the Spanish sol- diers will march out from the city they have resolutely defended, all under arms, and will be received by large detachments of General Shafter's victorious troops. The officers will retain their side arms, but the soldiers will stack their guns before the American lines and be placed under guaro' either to return to Spain under convoy or to give their oaths to remain in Cuba as non-combatants.
 In the meantime several regiments or General Shafter's command will be sent to take possession of the city and to noist the Stars and Stripes where the nag or Spain has fioated for centuries.

 ONLY IMMUNEs TO BE LEFT

 Formal sanction by the Madrid govern ment of the terms of equalization today unrayeled the tangled skein of commands and counter-commands between opposing commanders, which yesterday threatened to end the negotiations.
 APPROVAL or MADRID GOVERNMENT
 After numerous conferences had resulted in the agreement already sanctioned by General Blanco, General Toral decided that the approval of the Madrid government was necessary before he would leave the city.
 General Shafter maintained that no such approval was necessary; that when General Toral agreed to surrender the province of Santiago and General Blanco sanctioned 1t the agreement of surrender became an ac- complished fact. He insisted that General ToraI had either surrendered Thursday or acted in bad faith but documentary evil dence bore out the fact that General Toral mentioned that he only capitulated subject ' to his governments approval and the six commissioners by whom the articles were signed at 2:1c o'clock yesterday afternoon so ruled. The whole matter was cleared up this morning, however, when General Toral received the necessary sanction from Madrid.
