Il do not know what the instructions

said the Senator, ''but so far as concerns
the negotiations which will be instituted
in Paris tomorrow. | can see no other
result than that Spain will have to re-
linquish her sovereignty, not only over
Luzon Island, but the entire Philippine
group. Spain has no reason to expect
to be able to Tetain any portion of the
group. She went into the war and lost,
ard now ought to be prepared to suffer
all the consequences which such Il defeat
implies. | regard the Philippines as lost
to Spain, and that being fOregone con
clusion, it is my opinion. the problem
which will next confront us will relate
to the form of government which we will

mission Continues Examination of

Washington, Sept 30.-The war in

ask General Lee to follow General
Wheeler in giving testimony concerning
the charges made against the War De-
partment, and suggested Wednesday Of

heard.
General Wheeler will be before the

and the Santiago campaign. the examin-
alton concerning Santiago, covering eSpc-
cially the facilities for caring for the
sick and wounded. and the precautions
taken to preserve the health of the men

state their purpose to be to make Il COM
plcte investigation of these features Of
the Santiago siege, but Vice Chairman

calling General Miles or General Shaft
or, had not yet been under considera-
ton
The commission to-day continued its
examination of letters bearing upon
charges OF mismanagement, some Of
them calling attention to such charges,
and others attempting to refute them.
Many of the letters referred to newspa-
per reports of abuses, and in most of
such cases letters were sent to the editors
in question, asking them for specific in
formation.
Many Of the charges received by mail
are quite vague in character. An officer
in Il Pennsylvania regiment wrote that
he had been at Camp Thomas and at
Fernandina and Tampa, Fla, and that
he knew the charges of mismanagcment
were false. He expressed his willing
ness to come to Washington and give
the commission the information at his
command at his own expense.
To-day's letters deal especially with
the conditions at Camp Wikoff. In one
instance II minister wrote that he had
pointed out the inaccessibility and ex-
posed condition of the location, and the
poor condition of the water before the
place was selected. The members of the
commission express their determination
to make IA complete inspection of affairs
at that point, and it is probable that
they will visit the place as IA body

Washington. Sept. 30.-Thc Cabinet
meeting to-day was devoted largely to
matters in detail in connection with the
formation of the army which is to be
sent to Cuba. Reports We're read to the
effect that by October 10Th, the danger
from yellow fever will have passed. and
it is understood that the movement of
the troops will be begun about that
time. The conduct of the Spanish GUS
toms officers ut Havana is very unsatis-
factory to the President, and it is said
to have been decided to take possession
of the custom house there at an early
date and administer its affairs under
regulations to be prescribed by this Gov
ernment.
Information has reached the President
that the Spanish authorities at San
Juan recently took possession of and sent
to Spain, about $4,000 belonging to nm
association of school teachers. This
matter has been the subject Of protest
sent to the Spanish Government. I, is

vigorous measures will be taken to col
lect it from the persons responsible for
its misrepresentation.
