thought to possess one of the handsomest
interiors of any religious edifice in the
State. This mornings services were con-
Quoted by Brother john one of the most
prominent of the Order of Redemtorists, in
the presence of a. congregation which taxed
the capacity of the edifice to its utmost.
Probably no service within it's walls for
many years possessed so great an interest
or made a more profound impression upon
those who attended it.
At the close of the services the officers
returned to the Naval Academy and spent
the rest of the day in strolling about the
grounds or lounging on the broad piazzas
which surround most of the buildings in
which the prisoners are quartered. They are
rapidly becoming accustomed to their sur
roundings, and seem cheerful and content

their comfort, their food is plentiful and of
the best quality, and clothes will be pro-

Captain Eulate, of the Vizcaya, is the
only one of the officers who has thus far
refused to sign the parole pledge. His rea-
sons for IL are that Admiral Cervera was
only required to give a verbal promise, and
that his (Eulates) rank entities him to the
same privilege. The authorities here have
no doubt that the matter will be amicably
arranged and that the scruples of the gall
liant officer may be overcome.
Admiral Cervera has positively declined to
grant any newspaper interviews. He has
written note, stating that while he appre-
ciates the honor of being asked his views,
still he must decline to give them. To Mr..
De Barril, Spanish merican citizen he
said to-day that he could not meet the gen.
temen of the press in their representative
capacity What has been done is history,
he said and now he was under some rules
of restraint and could not speak. He eX-
pressed himself as appreciative of the cour-
tesies shown him.
Some Of the Spanish officers thought they
could mail their letters without censorship,
and q number were dropped into the city
boxes to-day. They were returned to the
academy authorities for inspection. The st.

against Porto Rico. Before going to the
White House. Secretary Alger had been in
conference with General Brooke for two
hours. They had before them large num-
Der of maps of Porto Rico. and the plans OF
campaign were discussed from every point
OF view Il is expected that General Miles
will go direct from Santiago to Porto Rico,
and that General Stone and Colonel Mich
Ter. of his staff, will leave from New York
in day or two on the Resolute, to join the
general at Santiago. Secretary Long would
not discuss the naval programme. except to
say that active preparations are on foot for
the next forward movement
During the day the secretary of war in
dorsed the plan of Colonel Hecker for the
TRANSFORMATION of the Spanish forces at
Santiago back to Spain. 1t provides for an
aggregate of 1000 Spanish officers, with
frst-class accommodation, and 24.0OO SOL
diers, with third-class or steerage passage.
The circular says that the Spanish forces
will be delivered on board at Santiago for
transportation to Cadiz. Spain, or such
ports as may be designated. 1t is provided
that the accommodations are to be kept up
to the standard required by the United
States army regulations as to officers and
men in regard to galeys. ventilation, etc.
The subsistence furnished is to be equal to
the prescribed United States ration, which
Is set forth in detail as a guide to bidders
as to what they must furnish.
The only dsquieting information received
during the day was the fever conditions at
the front, and this dispatch was modified
IN an encouraging way by General Skaters
later news. 1t was a dispatch from Colonel
Greenleaf, chief surgeon with the army in
Cuba, saying that sixteen new cases had
appeared. While this was regarded with
some apprehension by laymen, the surgeon
generals department considered the show
ing entirely satisfactory. With the sur
render accomplished there will be better
opportunity to get the men on high ground
and keep them away from infection. =
During the day a report was received
stating positively that no cases of yellow
fever existed on the Harvard, which
brought a large number of sick Spanish
prisoners to Portsmouth, n. II. This not
only relieved the officials as to the condition
at Portsmouth, but also as to the Harvard
for it would be severe handicap to the
navy if this crack craft had to go into quar-
antine.
The Navy Department received word
from the officers at Annapolis as to the
rival there of Admiral Cervera and the
other Spanish officers. Captain Coneas, one
of the imprisoned officers. is personally
known to Secretary Alger and his military
aid. Major Hopkins. Captain Coneas was
entertained at Detroit in 1893, while taking
the caraves through the great lakes to
Chicago, at which time General Alger and
Major Hopkins took prominent part in the
entertainment. They speak of Captain Co
meas in the most complimentary terms.
