themselves, and it is not deemed pru.
dent to bring them in unnecessary
contact with new troops in view of
the danger of spreading contagion.
The sick soldiers will be nursed back
to health and brought to the United
States as soon as they can be safely
removed. Immune regiments will be
ordered to Santiago to garrison the
town, and, as stated in these dispatches
Wednesday, two of these regiments are
already under orders to proceed.
The Porto Rican expedition will be
commanded by Gen. Miles in person,
though Gen. Brooke, now in command
at Camp Thomas, is expected to be his
main dependence. The size of the eX-
petition will depend upon Gen. Miles
wishes, although it is believed $4,000
men will be sufficient for the pur-
pose. At San Juan the navy
will be of greater assistance than
it was at Santiago, owing to the
possibility of approaching the town
more closely without rislsing contact
with mines. Gen. Brooke is now on
his way to Washington, by direction
of Secretary Alger, so that he will be
in position to make his views known
to the department.

DEWEY CALLED THE BLUFF.
A German WarNhlp Tries TO Interfere with
Philippine Insurgents and Ia Prompt
ly Called Down.

Manila, via Hong Kong, July IA
The insurgents on July 0 reported that
the German cruiser Irene, in Subio
bay, refused to permit them to attack
the Spaniards on Grande island. Rear
Admiral Dewey promptly dispatched
the Raleigh and Concord to investigate
the matter. On entering Subic bay
the Raleigh opened fire on the forts,
whereupon the Irene slipped her cable
and steamed out by the other chan
mel. The result of the fire of the
American warships was that the Span
iards, numbering over 500 men, SUR
rendered everything.
On returning to Manila the Irene
explained that she interfered sin the
cause of humanity" and offered to
hand over to the Americans the refu-
gees she had on board. Admiral Dewey,
however, declined to accept them.
Gov Gen, August has issued proc
lamation promising to grant autonomy
to the islands and offering the insur-
gents inducements to join the Spanish
forces. Gen. Aguinaldo, the insurgent
leader, in reply, said the overtures Of
the Spanish commander came too late.

GERMAN PRESS DEFIANT.
Denies the Irene story, and Says Americans
Are UnreasOnably Exclted-PrOtests
That Germany IL Neutral

Berlin, July 5.--The Cologne zeit-
ung denounces the story of the Ger
man warship Irene interfering at SUI
bic bay, island of Luzon, Philippines,
as a fabrication. The Lokalanzeiger
says the Americans are unreasonably
excited about the Irene incident
Even If it occurred, as Admiral Dewey says,
the Irene did not interfere but retired upon the
arrival Of the Americans Therefore, every
courtesy was shown that the Americans de-
mand Of a neutral country But, II the Irene
did hinder Aguinaldo's landing, it is no busi-
ness of Dewey's II the American admiral
sees fit to make common cause with the insur-
gents it is none Of our affair. Germany still
preserves her neutrality toward Spain, and
does not intend to recognize Aguinaldo and his
horde as belligerents. The matter is so plain
that we do not believe any diplomatic step will
be taken, and do not doubt for moment that
the American officials will admit the correct
ness OF the German proceedings.

ANOTHER BLANCo STORY.
Tried to Commit Suicide When Ho
Heard of Cervera's Fate.

Key West, Fla, July IA. According
to advices from Havana, received here
yesterday, Gov. Gen. Blanco attempted
to commit suicide when he learned
beyond doubt that Admiral Cervera's
squadron had been annihilated. Blanco
was in the palace when the news
reached him and he became almost
frenzied. He was closeted with his
staff discussing the news when he
made the attempt on his life. After a
struggle he was subdued and disarmed,
but the shock was so severe that he
was FRUSTRATED and compelled to keep
to his bed for several days When he
arose his first order was to prohibit
any food supplies leaving Havana for
interior towns, where the distress is
most poignant and where many are
starving daily.

Annapolis, Md, July 14.-Superin-
tendent Cooper, of the naval academy,
issued an order governing the officers
and marines attached to the naval
academy after the arrival of Admiral
Cervera and the officers and men Of his
late command. 1t provides that all
Spanish officers who give parole will
be permitted to go without the gates
and to have the privileges of the
grounds between eight a. m. and sun
down. The parole will not permit
them to leave the city limits.

San Francisco, July Is. -Advices
from Honolulu indicate that the coast
defense vessel Monterey will take
possession of the Caroline islands
before reaching Manila. While in
Honolulu harbor, Commander Lentz,
of the Monterey, borrowed charts of
the Carolines from Capt Bray, of the
missionary bark Morning Star and
also consulted with that navigator re-
gardlng the harbors of the islands.
Commander Lentz promised to return
the charts when he reached the Philip
pines.

PORTO RICAN MOVEMENT.
Supplies Now Being Loaded ON TranspOftO
Said to Be for Use OF the Army
OF Occupation.

Washington, July ALPHABETICALLY
the movement on Porto Rico has be-
gun. Guns and ammunition and sup
plies now being loaded on transports
ara for Porto Rico, not for Santiago
Some of the volunteer regiments now
leaving will be exchanged on arrival
at Santiago for regulars, but most of
them will go on with the army of oc-
cupation. The artillery, the wagon
trains, the pack animals are for Porto
Rico and will not be unloaded until
they reach there. Movements of
troops will be very rapid from this
time. Gen. Miles is strong believer
in the idea of plenty of men, He has
from the start favored preparations to
overpower the Spaniards with num-
bers. His plans for Porto Rico con-
template an army of $4,000 to occupy
that island, 95 miles long and 50 miles
wide. 1t is probable, however, that
Gen. Miles will start from Santiago
with force of $4,000 men, expecting
the 10, 900 additional to follow as soon
as the transports can be sent back for
them. 1t will be necessary to draw
on the camps in this country for 25, 900
men to make up tho army which Gen.
Miles deems sufficient for Porto Rico
and leave enough troops with Gen.
Shafter for further operations in San
tiago. The widening of the field me-
cessitates the sending of more gener-
ais. Two in whom the president has
special confidence have been selected.
They are Gen, Brooke and Gen. Will
son. Both will go at once.

Position of Emperor William with Ref

Washington, July Is, German in
reference in the Philippine islands
will be the subject of an investigation
by the state department. The admin
istration is preparing to follow up the
advantage gained by Rear Admiral
Dewey in successfully repelling what
was probably the initiative step of
German interference in the Philip
pines. 1t wants definite knowledge of
the exact position of the Berlin gov
eminent with reference to the Philip
pine question and the effort by the
German warship Irene to prevent the
operations of the insurgents against
the Spanish forces at Subic bay will
in all probability be the lever employed
to pry into Emperor Williams conf
dence.

Dewey Allowed a Free Hand.

Washington, July 16.-The attitude
assumed by the German naval COM
manders in the Philippines is without
doubt serious menace and apprehen-
sion to our government. Still, our
government is satisfied that its inter-
ests are safe in the hands of Admiral
Dewey, and is adhering to its original
intention of allowing him free hand
to deal with the situation. Until he
himself asks for action on the part of
Che government it is not the purpose
TO make any representations regard
ing the Philippines to the German gov
eminent.
