We had to put into this port because the two tanks on deck broke when we were about week out, and all the water we had was that in the big tank down stairs.

One of them had a clean white suit on. The other one said Good morning, captain! Where are you from?" Captain said: New Ha- ven" The man then told the captain where the harbor was deep.

Dewey and Others Reported
Better Spirit Among Them.
EXPECTED TO GIVE UP PRISONERS.
Consul wiIdman May Make Representa-
lonesome of Dewey's Ships Likely to
BE sent to other Islands Than Luzon.
to Secure Prisoners.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.-The navy de-
partment received a cablegram from
Admiral Dewey summarizing the exist
ing conditions at Manila and such points
in the Philippines as have been visited
by his officers. Advices also were re-
ceived from General Otis, the COM
mandant of the United States military
forces in the islands, and they both go
to show notable improvement in con-
ditions and the growth of better
spirit among those factions of the ma
tives which promised to give trouble.
There are about 500 clerical prisoners
and the government is confident that
their captors will deliver them up on
proper representations from General
Otis and Admiral Dewey, made. posi-
bly,, through Consul Wildman. 1t may
be necessary to call the navy into SER
vice in this matter, for the reason that
some of the prisoners are held i'll cap
tivity on other islands than Luzon,
which can be reached best and most
effectively by Admiral Dewey's ships.
Besides these clerical prisoners, the
Americans themselves hold nearly 10, 600
Spanish soldiers as prisoners, men cap
cured at the fall of Manila.

SPAIN'S FINAL PROTEST.
Claimed She Was Forced to Accept the
Treaty Terms--AIso How1ed About
Maine Reference In Message.

PARIS, Dec. 10.-Senor Garnica of the
Spanish commission asked why the
Spaniards refused to grant the United
States eoaling station in the Caroline
islands, said:
"The Americans could hardly expect
that we should agree to discuss matters
outside of the protocol, after the les.
sons we have had from them on this
point. When we wished to discuss the
Cuban debt they absolutely refused to
consider 1T and then they ask us for
whatever they want. Vuelle toupet
(what cheek! ] ct the Cuban debt re-
mains an important question for settle
ment.
Senior Montero Rios presented a Wig
orously-worded protest at the meeting
Thursday, IN which the Spaniards de.
clared they had yielded to force, but
thaG they Invoked the conscience of the
nations aga sst the abuse Of the rights
OF nations which they were the vic
Tins. The protest was for the purpose
of record, ana consisted of an argument
IN support OF every concession demanded
by the opaniards and which the Ameri-
cans refused, some of them peremptor-
lily and without an opportunity for dis
cussion.
The protest concluded:
"But these concessions which we
were obliged to make touches us less
than the insult which has been inflicted
on our nation by President Mckinley in
his message. We again protest solemn
ly against the accusation hurled against
us in connection with the Maine, and
we intend to again submit the question
to an international tribunal, comprised
of England, France and Germany, to
determine who shall bear the response
bility of the catastrophe"
In spite of the secrecy observed by
the Americans, it is learned that the
treaty consists of 3 or ii articles. The
principal articles provide Tor the cession
and evacuation OF Cuba, Porto Rico
and the Philippians islands, and the
political, administrative and financial
results thereof; the requirement by the
United States of public property, and
the REIMBURSEMENT of archives. The
articles OF secondary Importance de-
termine the status of Spanish subjects
remaining in the ceded territories
and unfinished lawsuits and contracts;
guarantees of the same terms to Spanish
shipping aud merchandise as imposed
upon American shipping anG merchan-
disc III the Philippine islands, for ten
years, and leaving the status of Spanish
commerce in the West Indies to be
settled later.
An important provision is the guar
antee of religious freedom in the ceded
territories, in the same terms as the
Florida treaty, the Americans having
steadfastly refused to incorporate any
guarantee of the United States deter
mination to favor the property of the
Catholic church. leaving it subject to
the general laws on the same footing as
private property.

val OF secretary Alger The other army
bill, drawn by General Miles, was not
before the committee, so that no COM

duced into the house Monday and re-
ferred to the military committee, SO as
to be taken up when General Miles is
heard.
The committee agreed to report favor

the Philippines will require to be garri-
soned by United States troops, the num-
Der required for each town and what
