permitted to take possession of the city upon Torafs surrender.
 On Friday last Castillo asked Shaf- ter: .'Why is Santiago to remain in the hands of our enemies?" "The Spaniards are not our enemies" re- pliec General Shafter s'We are fight ing the soldiers of Spain, but we have no desire to despoil her citizens. No
 Cuban will be allowed to enter the city. nor any Americans. The gov
 ernment of the city is for the people to decide When the American army
 leaves it is presumed it will be turned
 over to you, but not until then"
 Shafter sent an invitation to Gen.
 eral Garcia to attend the ceremony of raising the American flag over San tiago, but the Cuban general allowed
 his resentment to be shown by declin- ing the invitation, saying he hated the Spaniards and did not want to be where they were. Since that time the Cubans remain in their camp eating American rations, and our troops have had no communication with them. Our officers no longer conceal their
 disgust with their allies and it is un- derstood that the warm friendship displayed toward them at first has turned into contempt for the Cubans, who have neither fought nor worked

OUR CUBAN FRIENDS.
Allies With Whom Americans Are
 Disguised.

Santiago, July 19.-Impressed more and more every day on the American officers and men is the increasing strained relations between the Ameri- cans and Cuban soldiers. The situa- tion has now reached point where there is practically no communication between the armies, and their rela- tiOns border on the hostile. After Sbafter announced his decision not to let the Cuban junta enter the city. deep mutterings were head in Gen. eral Garcia's camp. It was evident that the Cubans were greatly disap- pointed at the step taken by the Anerican commander, for they had confidently counted upon having San tiago turned over to loot and plunder as they had in succession sacked Bai- cuiri. Siboney and Fl Clancy. Their disappointment was keen when they sscertained that they were not to be

THE ANGEL OF PEACE.
The Hunger and Health of the Lately
 Beleaguered City Looked After

Santiago de Cuba, July 1S.-(Via noon. .)-The Red Cross society's steamer the State of Texas arrived yesterday at o'clock in the afternoon, and this morning at daybreak Dr. El- well, who was in charge of the work of unloading, secured eight stores in the heart of the city, and one large shed on the dock, and engaged eighteen stevedores and began to unload the steamer about o'clock. She had 1,400 tons of provisions on board.
 The distribution began at o'clock, allowing pound and hslf of Tstions to each citizen. When the unloading began crowds of half starved citizens rushed to the dock, fighting and trampling one another under foot. breaking open cases and stealing sup plies. Finally a picket of troops was placed on the wharf, refusing admit tance to any one. The entire cargo had been landed before the distribu- tion began.
 General Shafter has had a thor ough examination made of the sani- tary conditions of Santiago. The work was done by Dr. Goodfellow of the generals staff and by a civilian physician, Dr. Orlando Dwiker. AL though there are at present but six cases of yellow fever in the city, in ad- dition to two suspects, the town is ripe for an epidemic Santiago and Rio Janeiro are considered the greatest fever breeding centers in the world This town lacks every sanitary feature at its best and now after two months siege, leaving it dirty and repellant, 1t is veritable pest hole. Awful stenches arise from the streets.

NO FEAR OF GERMANY
Ststs Department Supposed to Have
 Received Encouraging News.

Washington, July 19.-It was stated at the navy department today that no dispatches had been received from Ad- miral Dewey relating to important events in the Philippines described in press cables. It is evident, however, that officials do not feel the same con- cern relative to the attitude of the German naval force at Manila that they did when the admiral's last dis patch was received. It is not stated officially, but there is good reason to believe that either through Ambassa- dor White at Berlin, or the representa- tive of the German government here, the state department has received as- sllrances as to the attitude of Germany toward the Philippines that have in a large measure removed grave appre- hension heretofore entertained that Germany would offer obstacles to the execution of our plans.

LEAVING SAN FRANCISCO.
Last Vessels of the Fifth Manila Ex-
 petition Almost Ready to Sail

San Francisco, July 19.-Two sub jects of importance which are occu- pying the attention of military au- thorities here are the sailing of the remaining transports of the fourth ex- petition and the abandonment Of Camp Merritt for the Presidio. The next two transports to sail will be the City of Rio de Janeiro and the St. Paul. The Rio will depart next Fri day. That was the day fixed by Gen eral Merriam this morning and there are no indications that there will be any delay. Brigadier-General Otis will sail on the Rio and the troops under his command during the voyage will be two battalions of South Da- kota volunteers.

CONSIDERATION
WAS NOT GIVEN
American officers in Command, They
Say, Have Treated Them Very
Shabbily, and They Have Asked
the President to Direct Them. to
Temper Their Actions.

Hone Kong, Nov. 16-A part of the
document drawn up by the socalled
Filipino junta here, whose members
claim to represent Aguinaldo, the in
surgent leader, and the government
which he claims to have established, is
appended.
1t is impossible to ascertain how far
this junta represents Aguinaldo and his
followers. 1t is needless to add that
many of the statements made are not in
accordance with the facts in the case.
The Filipinos write;
"We, the Hong Kong representatives
of our countrymen, appeal to the great
and good judgment of President Nc
Kinley and the spirit of fairness and
justice of the American people, as always
shown in their regard for the petitions
of the weak and oppressed.
"While the fate of the islands is still
undecided, and we are doing all in our
power to prevent a conflict between the
Americans and Filipinos-waiting pa
tiently for the conclusion of the Paris
conference-we implore the intervention
of the president, supported by the will
of the people, to end the Sights shown
our leaders, officials, soldiers, and peo-
pie by some of the American military
and naval authorities and soldiers.
"We do not wish to do Admiral Dewey
or General Otis wrong, but we presu me
that reports, under press censorship,
will be, as thev have been, sent broad
cast, alleging that all the mistakes are
ours, and that the Americans are treat
ing US most kindly. But we must tell
the truth, for the best interests of both
parties, depending upon the American
president and people to see that justice
is done to our leaders, Aguinaldo espec-
tally, having full confidence in ultimate
ly receiving justice from America.
"What have we done that VI should
experience unfriendly treatment? Are
the Americans our friends? The tension
becomes greater daily, and any moment
a shot may be fred by an irresponsible
American or Filipino soldier. And the
flame thus started can only be quenched
with blood dear to US.
"We beseech the American president
and people to help us to control our own
people by directing the officers at Manila
to temper their actions with friendship,

POWERS STAND
BEHIND SPAIN
Support for That Governments Pre-
tensions Regarding the Philippines
Said to Have Been Pledged.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.-There has
been remarkable activity about the war
department for several days in the way
of preparing the troops for service in
lands beyond the United States. An
order has been issued directing at least
ten regiments of the regular army now
stationed in Northwestern forts and posts
to hold themselves in readiness for inn
mediate transportation and service in
tropical climates.
It is now believed that an early move
to Cuba is intended.
Another belief entertained is that the
United States government desires to be
in readiness to renew hostilities if Spain
refuses to accept the decision of the
American peace commission.
In this connection report has got
about that during the delay which has
occurred, Spain has been able to form
some sort of coalision with the European
powers to break up the pretentions she
has been making in the negotiations.
An interesting feature of the matter is
the refusal of the authorities to order
the muster out of the volunteers who re-

4. Disabled at Sea.

SEATTLE, Nov, 15.-The steamer Cen
tennial arrived here tonight from Hilo,
Hawaii, bringing an, account of the
wreckof the steamer City of Columbia
which for two days and nights tossed on
the ocean, gradually breaking up, her
machinery disabled and the water pour
ing into her. Through unexcelled steam
ship she finally reached a dock in the
harbor of Hilo, where she completely
broke down.
The City of Columbia left Honolulu
October 29th for Seattle with about
twenty passengers, who we're brought to
this city by the Centennial. The crew
remained at Hilo. The vessel was con-
demned by the board of survey. The
steamer was valued at about 500, 600,
and was insured for 100000. She was
owned principally by Alexander Bailie,
of Tacoma

WILL NOT DIS
CUSS SOVEREIGNTY
They Assert That the Peace Protocol
Does Not Warrant Any Reference
to Spafn's Withdrawal Only on
Her Own Terms.

PARIS, Nov. 16.-The meeting today
of the Spanish-American commission be;
gan at 2:15 and ended at 8 p. m. The
Spanish commissioners presented doc
ument in answer to the American argu-
ment which was submitted last week.
By mutual consent the memorandum
was handed to the Americans without
being read, and the meeting adjourned
to Saturday next.
The Spanish communication will be
translated this evening, and its con-
tents will be discussed by the United
States commissioners tomorrow at the
usual daily session.
The Spaniards in their communication
today reaffirmed the position which they
assumed against the discussion here of
Spain's Philippine sovereignty. They
insist that the words, ''shall determine
the control, disposition and government
of the Philippines" in article of the
peace protocol, do not warrant any refer
ence to Spain's withdrawal from the
Philippines, except on her own terms,
and therefore the Spaniards propose
arbitration on the construction to be
placed on the words, control, disposi-
ton and government"

ave went down there for the purpose
of ascertaining if the grant held by the
Maritime (Miller) company, was work
able. and soon discovered it was not.
The concession for years had practically
been Cancelled by the violation of several
articles of the agreement. Although the
government held that the concession ran
until October, 1893, there was no. dis
position on the part of the officials to
grant renewal of the work which had
ceased nine years ago. Then we arranged
for new and independent concession,
