III May De Abolished, With Cuba and
Porto Rico Lost

Madrid, Aug. 2O.-The cabinet is con-
sidering the question whether it will be
necessary to retain the establishment OF
the colonial Office with Cuba and Porto

hanging in the balance
The consensus of opinion seems to be
that money would be saved by abolishing
the colonial office altogether and making
in its stead subordinate branch of the
government which will directly depend
upon the orders of the president of the
council.
Senior Giron, minister of colonies will
shortly ask for a decision of the cabinet

time Scott lived in a perpetual nightmare
Over and over again he fought the men
who had given him his injury, a fracture
at the base of the skull. The electrical
treatment was continued. although many
well-known physicians said it was use
less.
They now admit that the cure is one of
the most remarkable known to medical
history. Scott was hurt in scuffie with
inspectors from the Bureau of Incum-

He at once went into cataleptic state

Two Other Messages.

Two other dispatches were received by

Gen Merritt The first was a cablegram
saying that the news of the protocol and
| the cessation of hostdlities had reached
the Philippines three days too late TO
prevent the capture of the city. 1t read
| as follows:
Hong Kong. August 20.

"Cablegram OF 12h. directing military
operations be suspended, received after
noon of 10Th. Spanish commander noti-
fed Acknowledge receipt of cable same
date containing proclamation of Presi-
dent MERRITT"
The other message was in relation to
the battle of Manila, the first that has
been received from Gen. Merritt on the
subject. 1t was as follows:
Hong Kong. Aug. 20.

Surprise at the Terms.
There is considerable comment in Off
cial circles ever the terms obtained by
the Spaniards from their American vic
tors. Regret and disappointment is eN-
pressed by many over their leniency. and
a few military officials went so far as
70 saw that the terms are not worthy of
the victory.
There has been no surrender of the
Spanish army. The enemy becomes the
guest of the American forces. with his
liberty complete. merely being deprived
of arms while in the city.
However, the surrender of the city to
America and the running up of the Amer
lean flag where the Spanish colors have
hoated for so many years is the impor-
tant matter Gen. Merritt is now the
military governor of Manila and the rev.
enues of the city are in his hands.
The suggestion was made by an officer
of the War Depar ment last night that
the American commanders must have been
instructed exactly as 10 the terms TO De
demanded 1t was also suggested by him
that the Administration may have been
particularly anxious to secure the sur
render of the city Immediately, to pre-
vent any possibility of further depreda-
tons by the insurgents.
Cable Now Working.
The cable between Hong Kong and
Manila, which was cut by Admiral Dew
ey Immediately after the battle of Ma
Mia bay, was restored yesterday. A
short dispatch was received by the War
Department las. night from Gen. Mer-
ritt, dated Manila, saying that the cable
was working at that point.
