MUST RESTRAIN cuBANs.

United States Troops Will Be Necessity
for Years to Come.
WASHINGTON, July 20.-War depart
ment officials feel that they are fully
justified in their decision to retain
practically all of Shafter's army at
Santiago by the press reports indicat.
ing the growth of serious friction be.
tween tho American forces and the
Cuban troops growing out of the lat
ter's exclusion from Santiago by Gen.
eral Skaters orders. 1t is realized
that the present situation is full of
difficulty and the future is dark owing
to the disposition evidenced by the Gu.
bans to ignore or refuse to be bound by
the amenities of modern warfare. This
First symptom Of Friction :;
has suggested to the officials innumer.
able difficulties that will arise in the
future. Of course it would seem to be
only polite to avoid any open rupture
with tho Cubans, provided they can be
kept in leash and not involve the
United States in the disgrace that
would follow the sacking Of helpless
communities, but it begins to appear
that for some time to come and even
after the conquest Of Cuba is complete
the United States must maintain there
a military government in order to meet
tho responsibilities which it has as.
sumed to tho civilized world.
