AMAZING DISCOVERY
OF GENERAL WOOD
Finds Transport Leaving Santiago
Without Proper Supplies for
the Sick.

SANTIAGO DE CUBA, Nov. 2-The
United States transport Victor was 10
nave left to-day for the United States
with number of sick officers and
men. Fortunately just before the hour
fixed for her departure General Wood
Military Governor Of the Department Of
Santiago, went on board. To his amazo-
ment he found no provisions snaciaIl,,
suitable to sick persons, an entire lack of
delfcacies and an insufficiency of medical
supplies.
General Wood declares that hereafter
he will pay a personal visit to every
transport before it leaves the harbor. He
thinks 1t very strange that, after all the
experience had here in that line the
medical department is not able 10 man
age It's affairs better and that the per
sonal supervision of the commanding gen
eral should be necessary.
Major Starr, inspector general of the
department, is on furlough of thirty
days. y

Avoids a Meeting to
Audit Bills.

Boards Total In

A FEW MEMBERS APPEAR
MAJORITY IGNORE THE CALL oF
THE PRESIDENT.

The members Of the School Board put
I'D a little Job on the Grand Jury yes
terday afternoon by avoiding the meet
ing which President Darlington had
called for the purpose of auditing all OF
the unpaid bills of the School Depart
ment, amounting to some $4,000. Bar
rington and several of the members put
in an appearance at the city building at
o'clock in the afternoon and there were
several whispered consultations in the
corridors, after which the aforesaid mem
bers slipped silently away and disap-
peared on the streets. There was no
waiting around in the Clerks office, as
has been the custom, until quorum ar
rived. The fact that there was to be no
quorum was understood from the start
The arrival of two or three members was
evidently a part of the little game OF
bluff. Had the ones intrusted with the
carrying out of the bluff remained at the
City Hall until 5 p. M, the usual time for
the assembling of the board, there would
have been less chance Of detection. AS 1t
was, they left about 4 o'clock, showing
that they did not expect q quorum.
The reason for these tactics is not hard
to discern. The board does not care at
this time to let it be known to the Grand
Jury IN an official manner. that it is
The meeting which President Darlington
had called, for the auditing Of the bills,

consideration of the fact that the pro-
ceedings would be just what the Grand
Jury would like to see, inasmuch as the
board would officially admit its indebt-
edness on many accounts which have
heretofore been held back by the Finance
Committee. 1t is claimed that when
these accounts see the light of day
the aggregate will be $4,000 or $40, 900.
The Grand Jury is now at work secur-
ing evidence on which to proceed against
the bondsmen of the School Directors. 1t
will hold a second meeting for that pur-
pose this afternoon. President Barring
ton, Sam Waller and other members of
the School Board have been cited to ap-
pear and tell what they know about un-
paid bills. 1t would have, therefore, been
the acme of bad policy for the board to
have met yesterday and audited bills.
The witnesses can appear to-day and
truthfully state that they do not know
exactly what the liabilities of the board
may be. as the accounts are not all au-
dited.
Whether or not this evasion will go
with the Grand Jury is an open question.
Those who claim to know the sentiment of
that body declare that the unpaid bills,
including all that have not been audited,
will be. demanded, and that the findings
of the Grand Jury will be based thereon.
on the ground that all of the bills are
presumably correct.

HAVANA, Nov. 2.-No reply to the
note of yesterday, asking that the date
of evacuation be fixed at January J.,
has yet been received by the American
Commission. General Parade had a
conference with Blanco to-day on the
subject Probably Madrid has been
consulted on the matter and instruc-
tions are awaited.
l am told that the answer, which Will
probably be given tomorrow, will be
decentralization of the arguments that 1t
is impossible to move all the troops I'M
til a month later; but as the Ameri-
cans are insistent in the matter this
must remain their decision.
The Spanish Government has decided
on terms under which soldiers DESTROYS
of staying in Cuba will be allowed to
remain If they have served three
years in full they will be given their
discharge and paid small part of their
salary, distributed pro rata, receiving
notes for the balance. Those soldiers
who have served less than three years
will be taken to Spain.
This rule concerning discharge ap-
plies to the orden publicos also, and it
is believed that the majority Of them
will take the opportunity to secure free
transportation to Spain.
The date of meeting of the Cuban
convention at Marianao will probably
be postponed, as the representatives of
different corps may not arrive soon.
General Ducasse, representative of the
Santiago division, says they will sail
from Santa Cruz tomorrow and may
not return for several days.
La Coste, president of the Junta, tells
me that the Cuban army in Pinar del
Rio Province is almost without food.
He fears they may be a source of trou-

CAUGHT IN A GALE AT NIGHT
STORY BROUGHT TO SANTIAGO
BY A FISHERMAN.
Supported by Wreckage From the
Steamer-Three Hundred Per-
sons Aboard the
Vessel.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SANTIAGO DE CUBA, Nov. 2.-It is
runored tonight that the transport
Panama went down in a gale in the
Windward Passage last night. This
rurnor is based on the report of a fish
ing schooner which reached here to-day
from Cape Maysi.
Some foundation for the reported
loss of the transport is found in the
fact that a large amount of Wreckage,
supposed to belong to the Panama, was
picked up to-day. Eight articles
marked Panama" were found in the
water, but no trace Of the vessel was
seen, SO far as is known here.
The Panama, which was taken from
the Spaniards as a prize during the
war, was in bad condition when she
sailed from Santiago on Monday. Her
engines were out of order and her hull
was damaged. Her condition was such
that Postmaster Hugo Hydeman con-
sidered her unsafe and declined to
place the mails aboard her. Many sea-
men here say the vessel has been I'M
seaWorthy for a long time.
When the Panama sailed from this
port she had 800 persons on board. In
Guiding officers, passengers and crew
Among the passengers were Repre-
sentative John Dalzell and former
Representative George F. Huff of
Pennsylvania, VINO with d party OF
seven PENNSYLVANIA railroad men had
spent several days in Santiago investi-
eating plans for constructing rail-
road to connect Santiago with Havana,
with which they had been favorably
impressed.
There were several officers of regi-
ments now stationed in Santiago who
were on their way home, having been
granted leaves of absence on account
of illness. Most of the passengers,
however, were from Porto Rico. The
Panama was bound for ports on the
north coast. of Cuba, for Havana and
for New York.

M'KlNLEY IN THE SOUTH.

Within the last week scenes
have been witnessed in the old
Confederate states which a year
ago the most optimistic could not
hope to see during the life Of the
present generation. The people
Of Georgia arranged to celebrate
the signing Of the treaty of peace
between Spain and the United
States. President Mckinley and
many other distinguished states
men and soldiers were invited to
be present at the celebration,
which took the name Of the peace
jubilee and opened in the city Of
Atlanta Dec. Il, when the Presi-
dent made the first of his short
but memorable speeches before a
JOINT session OF the legislature.
We quote some Of the most strill-
ing passages together with the
press reports of the scene which
followed. The President said:
EVERY soldiers grave made during
the unfortunate Civil war is tribute
to the American yalor. And while
when those graves were made, we diff
fered widely about the future of the
government, those differences were
long ago settled by the arbitrament OF
arms, and the TINE has now come in
the evolution of sentiment and feeling
under the providence of God, when. il
the spirit of fraternity, we should share
with you in the care of the graves Of
the Confederate soldiers"
A wild cheer went up from ever]
throat in the typical Southern audi
ence, a cheer that echoed and reechoeC
throughout the chamber until it wal
taken up by the crowds outside. Ok
men who fought for the South rosr
from their seats and waved their hats
