AT THE FRENCH EMBASSY.
The Ambassador Receiving Many

The Ambassador Receiving Many
Cong eratufatfOns Upon His Work.
The French embassy has resumed its nor
NAL aspect after threez.weeks of excite
ne1t and almost incessant work, night and
cay, incident to the details of closing the
peace negotiations. Ambassador Cambon
is receiving many congratulations on the
successful result of the work initiated by
him, but he is most gratified at the assur-
ances conveyed by the President, at the
close OF the ceremony yesterday, when the
President expressed his thanks not only
to the ambassador, but to the government
ofFrance, for its good offices. The Madrid
government was fully notified by cable last
night of the signing Of the protocol and the
proclamation of peace, and the Spanish
copy of the protocol has gone forward to
Madrid by mail There is little further to
do in the diplomatic field
When the few remaining formalities are
disposed of M Cambon will probably take
a trip of several weeks to Niagara and
through Canada. His son Roger, who is
here on his college vacation, will accom-
rany him. The embassy officials will also
have an opportunity to get a needed rest

Knights Templar in October next in Pitts
burg. The President told the committee
which invited him that he would attend If
ne found affairs In shape to do SO. The
committee which extended the invitation
was composed of Gen. ]. S. Goblin, who is
to be grand marshal of the parade; Col H
H. Kuhn. grand commander of the sir
knights of Pennsylvania: ]. B. Youngson
James s. Mexican and Eli Edmundson, jr,
heads of various committees.
Position for Gen. Lee.
The Presidents intentions as to General
f1tzhugh Lee are not known General Lee
may be made military governor at Havana
he may be put on the military commission
which goes there, or he may be placed in
command of the troops which will garrison
the island. 1t is thought to be more likely
that he will be military governor or com
mander of the United States forces, which
will not go to Cuba in large force until fall.
The Question of an Office.
Senator Deboe of Kentucky called at the
White House today to have talk with the
President regarding the appointment of an
assistant district attorney for that state.
The senator wanted ex-Representative Jno.
II. Wilson given TIE position but learned
that the President would probably select
Mr. Fitzpatrick, who was urged for the
place by Representative Colson and others.

Stop the Manila Expedition.

SAN FRANCISCO, August 13-The ques-
ton of whether or not the sending of troops
to Manila after the signing of the peace
protocol will be continued is being dis
cussed in army circles here. General Mer-
riam referring to the matter said:
Il shall make no change in the present
arrangements unless so ordered by the au-
thorities at Washington Every man of
the expedtionary forces will be sent to
Manila If 1 am permitted to do so. l can
not say whether the journeying of troops
to the island would be construed as an in
fraction of the protocol. With peace an
assured fact, the troops would be merely
guards to preserve order. Still / look for
orders from Washington settling the mat
ter in one way or the other"

The Liberal, commenting on the gravity
of the situation as regards the Philippine

archipelago, but that Spain will lose more
than she will gain if Aguinaldos insurgents
do not make submission

Rico to Be Resumed.
The merchant vessels of the world are

Porto Rican ports, as 1t is held by the State
department that no further proclamation
is needed raising the blockade of these ISL

and naval commanders and the Presidents
proclamation of reace are said to be suffi-
Gent In themselves to end the blockade and
open all ports to the shipping of the world.
IEls means much, not only to Spain ana
the beleaguered islands, but to the mer-
chant shipping Of Great Britain, France.
Germany and other countries having com
merce with Cuba and Porto Rico The mer-
Grant ships of these countries have been in
enforced idleness for many weeks, or have
been subject to seizure on attempting to
enter Cuban or Porto Rican ports. Now all

Makes Report Concerning ihe Action Off
 San Juan de Puerto Rico

Washington, May 27.-The following bull letin was posted at the navy department today:
 The following Is a copy of report made by Rear Admiral Sampson. concerning the action off San Juan De Puerto Rico:
 Upon approaching San Juan it was seen that none of the Spanish vessels were in the harbor. was, therefore, considerably in doubt whether they had reached San Juan and again departed for some unknown destination. As their capture was the ob- ject of the expedition, and 1t was essential they should not pass to the westward, de- termined to attack the batteries defending the port in order to develop their positions and strength, and then without waiting to reduce the city or subject it to regular bombardment-which weuld require due mo- tice-turn to the westward.
 T commenced the attack as soon as it three hours, when the signal was made to discontinue the firing, and the squadron stood to the northeast until out of sight of San Juan, when the course was laid to the westward with the view of, communi- eating with the department atvPort Plata and learn if the department had obtained information as to the movements of the Spanish vessels.
 At Cape Haytien I received word from the department that the Spanish vessels had been sighted off Curacao on the 18th inst. As stated in my telegram. no seri- ous injury was done to any$of the ships. and only one man was killed and seven wounded slightly"
