the system outlined the postoffice de-

management of the mails. while tie
officers of the army are to designate
the location of the Offices and assist
wherever possible in expediting trans
portation of mails.

Washington. July 9.-In view of the
published allegations that the troops
were on short rations, General Shafter
was wired as TO the proof of the asser-
ton. He answered that one day only
the troops were on half rations, and on
that date the only troops who suffered
were a few at the furthest points of
supply. General Shafter said there was
considerable complaint on account of
lack of tobacco. but added that there
was sufficient food, tobacco and other
necessary supplies on the ships to last
at least two months, and they will be
brought ashore at the earliest possible
moment. Everything he reported to be
In d most satisfactory condition and
expected that fighting might be resumed
this afternoon or evening.
The statement of the press from the
army in the field to the effect that the
Cubans under Garcia have undertaken
to designate a governor for Santiago
after it falls has attracted a good deal
of attention here. The dispatch went
on to state that the man for the place
was Colonel Castillo of General Garcias
army, and that General Shafter, upon
being notified OF the choice. had referred
the matter TO Washington. No such
reference has been received and the
officials do not expect for an instant that
General Shafter will make it. II San
tiago falls under his attack General
Shafter and no one else would assume
command of Santiago and retain that
command as long as he stays in that
vicinity and until ha IL relieved nv
ders from Washington.
Ii is not contemplated here to turn
the captured communities over TO the
Cubans without very careful consid-
Grafton OF the consequences involved
not only from the point of moral OBJ
legation upon the United States as a
civilized nation, but also from sound
political considerations.
The reports that are reiterated as TO
the brutal attitude Of the Cubans to-
ward the Spanish who surrender near
Santiago have caused a great deal Of
disquiet here, and IL is believed that
our military and naval commanders
will be expected to see TO IL that the
Cubans are held to the strictest observ-
ance Of the rules OF civilized warfare
