EVACUATION COMMISSION.
Members Are Now Installed at the Ho-
 tel Inglaterra in Havana.

Havana, September 19.-All the members of the American evacuation commission same ashore from the steamer Resolute this morning and are installed at the Hotel Inglaterra All are well.
 Rear Admiral Luis Pastor Landed, cap tain of the port, who was originally elected a member of the Spanish evacuation com mission has been replaced by Admiral Manterola.
 General Blanco has orderd that the con- fiscation of the few cattle remaining in the island shall be suspended In the Matanzas province, where it threatened to become a death blow to all possible work in the field. The necessity that similar steps be taken in Pnar del Rio and other provinces is inn perative, the crops having been ruined or the work of gathering them delayed through hack of oxen.
 Advces from the interior report that hos pitals are being established on many estates and that relief committees have been or ganized in several towns to attend to the requiremnts of the Cuban troops who are in a sad condition.
 The steamer Alphonso XIII sailing for Spain tomorrow will carry 29l boxes of documents of military archives. She will also have on board the division of General Pablo Gonzales Corral.

PROVOST GUARDS
 HAD NO SINECURE Private of Co. l Had a Bayonet
 Thrust Him. ROW CAUSED BY BAD LIQUOR Bloody Fight at the Camp in Which Private Rhodes of the Florence Company Received an Ugly
 Scalp Wound.
ROW CAUSED BY BAD LIQUOR

The provost guard was kept busy in the city yesterday rounding up unruiy soldiers.
 Yesterday afternoon a fight took place at the corner of Second avenue and Twenty second street between the guards and three soldiers, in which Officers Goggans and Egan, of the police department took hand. It seems that Pr.vates William Reese, Charles Womack, George Thomas and Ernest Johnston had imbibed too free- ly and were raising a racket on the street. when the guard attempted to put them under arrest. It is said that the men re- sisted and took refuge in a house of ques- tionable character where they were fol- lowed by the guard. A fight ensued and in the melee Private Vernelle, of Company G, who was one of the guards, stuck his bayonet in Johnson's back, inficting painful wound. Officers Gogglns and Egan came upon the scene and assisted in sub duing the unruly soldiers, who were placed in the patrol wagon and taken to police headquarters. One of the men refused to go in the door at the city prison, and when the guard attempted to force him he again showed fight, but was quickly brought to time with a couple of raps over the head with gun.
 
 the temporary hospital in the armory of the Jefferson Volunteers, where his wound was dressed by Surgeon Sheldon. Johnson is a member of Company l, and claims that he tried to stop the fight The bayonet entered his back on the right side about twelve inches below the shoulder blade and produced an ugly wound. At q late hour last night he was resting well.
 Quite number of men were in during the day, and the city prison took on much the appearance of a military guard house. The prisoners will be transferred to camp today, where they will be incarcerated pending trial.
 Another incident occurred about o'clock at the camp which created quite a little excitement at the time. Privates Rawson and Rhodes, both of the Florence Rifles, were the participants in a bloody fight. Both were said to have been drinking heavily, and the fuss is said to have begun on account of an Insulting remark which one Of them made to young lady when coming out on a car. In the fight which followed Rawson picked up a conch shell lying in the tent and smashed Rhodes in the head with it. The latter bled a great deal and become very much frightened over his condition, but it was nothing more than a scalp wound.

MUST BE THROUGH
 PROPER CHANNELS Applications for Discharge Will Not be Considered Otherwise. MEN NOW SERVING ABROAD Cannot at the Present Time Receive Honorable Discharges for Obvious
 Reasons-Outcome of Peace
 Deliberations ill Doubt.
MEN NOW SERVING ABROAD

Washington, September 19.--The following statement was given out at the war depart ment: The war department is just at pres ent undergoing an experience which illus trates the alacrity with which the average citizen hastens to his senator or representa- tive in congress for aid in emergencies:
 "The cessation of hostilities and the im- proba bility of renewal, with the dullness of camp life, has apparently created feel ing of restlessness among the men of the volunteer army, who, in the majority of cases. have given up positions of larger compensation, and many of them im- ploring their political representatives to obtain their discharges, and the latter in turn are flooding the war department with requests for prompt and immediate action.
 gro such an abuse of priviegt has this grown that the war department has been obliged to call attention to that paragraph of the army regulations which requires that all communica tions from subordinates to superiors must pass through military chan nels and to decline as rule to entertain applications for discharge of enlisted men unless it comes to it in a proper manner.
 "A soldier who has good reasons upon which to base his application for discharge will save nlmSeu a great amount SI tune and trouble if he will set forth the reasons for his discharge in a letter addressed to the adjutant-genral of the army and hand it to the captain of his company who in turn Is required to forward it to the colonel of the regiment and the latter to pass it nlong through the brigade, division ~and corps headquartersh Otherwise such appli- cations will be returned to the said com uauding officers before any action can be taken by the department.
 "The department has also promulgated another ruling in this connection which is to the effect that public policy will not permit at this time the consideration of ap- pl;catiops for discharges of men serving in the Philippines. Honolulu, Cuba or Porto Rico rnl!ie reasons for this are obvious. Aside from the question of transport rtaton and necessity for Supplying the places of men who arc to be discharged from others from the states. it is to be remembered that the war is not over, and much depends upon the results of the deliberations of the peace commissioners who have sailed for Paris.

 New Duties.

Washington, September 19. - Senator Faulkner, who has been appointed to suc- ceed Senator Gray on the arbitration com- mission, S.ill leave tomorrow night with the expectation of reaching Quebec Thursday. It is his understanding that the next ses- sion of the commission to begin tomorrow will continue until about October or g, and it will then be adjourned until some time in November, when the commission will meet in Washington.
 The president told Senator Faulkner to- day that he was desirous of facilitating the commissions labors to as great an extent as possible, and dwelt upon the importance to both countries of arriving at an early un- derstanding for the settlement of the dif- ferences which have arisen between them. There are fifteen points of disagreement which the commission will try to settle, ana Senator Faulkner says his information is to the effect that there is a fair prospect Of reaching a settlement.

WILL HAVE RECEIVED ORDERS
To Prepare For the Movement on Cuba
 and Porto Rico.
RAINY SEASON IS NEARLY OVER
And the Most Delightful Season of the Year Is About to Begin in Trop- ical Cuba-There Is No Fear
 of Sickness On Island.

Washington, September 19.-It is the pres ent intention of the administration to send to Cuba as a garrison force about 40,O0o troops in addition to the force now in San- tiago under command of General Lawton.
 The organizations which are to com prise the Cuban garrison have not all been designated yet, but it is assured that at least half of them will be volunteers for the movement to Cuba of the first 10000 of the permanent garrison, and it expected that they will sail about October 10 These troops will be followed quickly by others until the entire force of O,OOO has been es- tablshed on the island.
 It is not the intention of the administra- ton to await the veacuation by the Spanish forces before sending United States troops to Cuba, as the indications now are that it may be several months before the Cuban commissioners complete their work. Quite naturally considerable number of Spanish troops will remain on the island until the arrangements for the relinquishment of Spanish sovereignty over it formally have been concluded.
 The rainy season in Cuba is nearly at an end and the most delightful season of the year on the island is about to begin. During the late fall and winter months the climate in Cuba is not only enjoyable but healthful, and with such care as will be taken the health and comfort of the American forces to be stationed in Cuba, officials of the war department have no fear that illness among the men will follow the occupation of She island.

Gen. Gordon's Order

Reynolds, Ga., September 19-Genera1 John B. Gordon, commander in chief of the United Confederate veterans, today issued the following order:
 To the United Confederate veterans:
 The commanding general with a sorrow Whlch no words can express, announces the death of Miss Winnie Davis, the idol ized Daughter of the Confederacy." The ooundless enthusiasm which was evoked py her every appearance at our reunions indicated the depth of affection and the unfelgned admiration which all confeder- ates felt for her. It is not too much to saw that the ovations with which she was everywhere greeted by the ex-soldiers of the southern armies were such as have rarely been accorded to any woman. Their grlef at her untimely death will be as nro- 1ound and poignant as their love for her Whiie living was universal and sine ere. and their most affectionate sympathfes are with the grief stricken mother The com manding general directs that the denart. ment and division commanders select dele gations and escorts of honor as they nav deem proper to represent the United Con. ederate veterans and to accompany the re- mains to their final resting place.
