THE FIRST NEWS.


THE FIRST NEWS.
Washington, Dec. 10.-The first
news that the treaty of peace had
been signed came to the officials in
a message from Judge Day shortly
after 4 o'clock this afternoon. The
dispatch also said that the commits
sioners would endeavor to sail for
home early next week.
The president was gratifed at
the news and Immediately at his
request telephone messages were
sent to all the members of the
cabinet in this form: THE treaty
of peace was signed at 8:45 p. m.
Convey my compliments and con-
gratulations to the secretary"
No steps have been taken yet to
meet the conditions presented by
the actual establishment of peace.
The administration is inclined to
hold that peace will not formally
exist until the ratification of the
treaty has been exchanged.
No volunteers will be discharged
as result of the signing of the
treaty, and it was announced that
until Congress voted an increase III
the regular service as many volun-
teers as may be needed in the colo
nies would be retained.
Diplomatic relations will proba-
bly, not be resumed with Spain un-
til the treaty has been ratified.

DR.. CONNOR'S TRADE
Against Chattanooga And All Its
Hosts.

| CINCINNATI, Nov. 1.-The Enquirer
has special from Chattanooga which
says:
A sensational episode occurred Sun
day night before the war investig alton
commission. Rev. Marion Ham of this
city, pastor of the Unitarisu church,
aud republican in politics, had been
asked to appear before the commits.
81 m. Only General Dodge, General
Sexton, and DR.. Conner were present.
Mr.. Ham proceeded to tell of Nuun's
case, in which he said that Num-, a
private of the 9th New York volun-
teers, had laid in q hospital tent over
~ hours after death, perfectly nude
"rhe body had been opened, and when
were teeming in cuts under the arms
and out OF the eyes"
AT this point DR.. Conuor, who had
been conducting the examinations, it
is charged, launched into a TRADE
against Chattanooga people in general
and the ministers of the city in partic
ulsr. He accused the ministers of
Chattanooga Of gross neglect of duty
when they failed to call mass meetings
for the purpose of preventing crime,
m aking the statement that Chstta-
nooga people bad imported thousan ds
OF women to debauch and kill the SOL
diers.
This aroused Mr.. Ham and he
said:
"Dr. Copnor, L was led to believe
that you we're here to investigate the
abuses at Cbicksmauga and not to. in
vestigate and pronounce judgment on
the people or the ministers
OF Chattanooga. / have some |
Important testimony bearing on
your inquiry, things
saw with my own eyes and to which l |
am willing to be qualified. If you are
not here to whitewash certain things
that transpired at Chickam auga. you
are going beyond your authority and
the scope OF your inquiry in your Wifi
cation of our people,"
This rejoinder made matters worse
And the doctor started in on q fresh
ohilipDic on Chattanooga and minis
'ers, when Mr.. Ham arose aud left.
He was asked by General Dodge to
limit his testimony in writing to the
board, but refused.
