New York, July ia dispatch to the
Tribune from Santiago de Cuba via Port
Antonio, Jamaica, says:
The various problems connected with
the capture and taking possession Of San
tiago are rapidly being brought to solu-
ton. The evacuation Of the city by the
Spanish troops, who are now prisoners of
war to be shipped back to Spain, will
greatly simplify the situation.
1t is thought that the Cusbns under
General Calixto Garcia, who have done
some good work in the campaign, can be
entrusted with the general administration
OF affairs in the surrendered territory.
They would, Of course, at least for the
present, act under the direction Of q Unit.
ed States military governor, who would
hold Santiago city with a garrison Of
United States troops. These could be sta
TONED on the hills about the city, where
water is plentiful even in midsummer, and
where there is no danger Of fever.

THE PURE FOODS BILL.
Promptly Indorsed by All Big Com mercial and Industrial
 Ro5ieg

When the legislators meet next week in Sacramento they will have presented for their consideration a matter in which the best citizens of the State and all the big commercial and industrial bodies are interested--namely, the pure foods ques- ton. Last summer when the Pure Foods Convention met in this city its delegates were from all parts of California. What it's members desired to accomplish was discussed and the work of putting mat ters in shape to be presented to the com ing Legislature was. left to the pure foods committee of the Producers and Manu= lecturers Assocjation. With the assist ance of Attorney Dunne of the District Attorneys office a bill has been framed on the lines indicated by the convention.
 The bill provides for the creation of a pure foods bureau or commission, with officers and subordinates to see that the the same matter was taken up by the Re gents of the University of California, State Horticultural Society, Dairymen' 5 Association and other bodies The pure foods committee of the manufacturers organization soon saw that the ends would be defeated if there were too many fingers in the pure foods pie, and they in vited all of these to join in a united and mighty movement to the wished for end. The invitation was accepted, and yester- day all of the organizations named. and the Council of Associated Industries, com posed of the Manufacturers and Produc- CTS Association, Mechanics Institute, the City and State Boards of Trade, Board of Health and Miners Association, met in the Mills building and discussed the proposed measure It was fndorsed by all and arrangements will be made for having copies of 1t presented to every legislator in Sacramento. More than that, the coun- cil will send representatives to Sacramet- DO to work in the interests of pure foods and the bill.

INSOLENT BEGGARS.
Judge Conlan Is Determined to Pun ish Mendicants as Severely as
 the I.aw Will Allow

Two professional beggars, John Me Dowell and James Dunlap, appeared before Judge Conlan yesterday for sen- tence. As Dunlap is slowly dying from a loathsome disease. the Judge sentenced him to twenty-four hours in the City Prison, but humanely ordered that he should be sent to the City and County Hospital. McDowelf was sent to the County Jail for three months. When Mo Dowell heard his sentence he remarked, .''Pll be dead before I get out" and the Judge retorted, If you are dead you can't get out"
 "The city is overrun with beggars,' continued the Judge, "and they not. only beg for money but use the most disgust ing language if they are refused. Com plaints have been made to me for some time about the insolence of. beggars, and know of one case where a well-known .saloon-keeper on Market street was struck on the forehead with a pair of brass buckles by beggar because he de- clined to give him quarter. I am de- termined to punish these men, and every one that is brought before me will be sent to jail"

The value of conducting the sym phony season on a subscription basis was happily illustrated by the crowd that attended the concert in the Or pheum yesterday afternoon. It was nasty, soaking day and In the middle of holiday week; on the ordinary pay as-you-go plan there would not have been two hundred persons in the house. But the subscribers turned out in fash
 ionable mob and the afternoon was one of the smartest of the season. IL was also one of the most artistic. In fact the programme as a whole was the best played of the season; and it was a stunning programme. Men delssohn was the smallest man in it, and he was represented by his largest achievement, the Scotch" symphony. All the rest was Wagner and Beeth- oven The latter to be sure was in only the overture, the good old 'Leonora" overture number. three; but Scheel played that veteran standby with such delicate beauty and care that you ac- cepted it in any thing but. perfume tory spirit. Usually the 'Leonora" is a sort of opening ceremony, an accom- paniment to the removal of overshoes, stacking of umbrellas and settling of silk skirts; but this time it was a care fully attended masterpiece, played with unimpaired enthusiasm by a leader and his bandsmen who, every one Of them, know the score backward
 However, 1t was the Wagner pieces that made the deepest dent in the ap- preciation of the crowd and proved the band to be in a condition of balance and responsiveness that 1t had not quite at tained to in the earlier concerts of the season. The brass especially was clearer and better blent with the strings and reeds; 1t blew boldly and with fair tonal integrity, and it's pianis- simo was sure and suggestive of re- pressed strength rather than of woh-
