PROTEST FROM ENGLAND.
Objected to Construction of Fortifica-
lions Opposite Gibraltar.

Madrid, Aug. 21-In the course of an
interview had last night with a MEM
Der of the cabinet by a representative
of the Associated Press, the minister
said England had presented a note to
Spain, asking for explanations on the
subject of Notifications being erected
by Spain near Gibraltar which, the
note declares, are unjustified, in view
of the good relations existing between
the two countries.
Large quantities of supplies for Ha-
vana are being collected at Barcelona,
Cadiz and Santander Steamers have
been selected to bring home the troops
from the Antilles.
London, Aug. 21.-The Daily Mall
Madrid correspondent says: England S
remonstrance against the erection of
Notifications in course of building at
Sierra Carbonera, opposite Gibraltar,
was the result of a little diplomatic
skirmish. Some time ago England offer
ed Spain her good offices in the Amer
lean conflict. Spain refused, and it is
supposed that England resented this,
because, shortly afterwards, she sent
the Madrid government a note contain
ing questions and observations regard
ing the Notifications, and intimating
that they were a menace to Gibraltar.
Spain answered that she could like
wise consider the fertilization of Glib
raltar as a menace to the neighboring
Spanish territory and sustained the
right of every nation to build it's de-
lenses on it's frontiers. This, Spain de-
clared, had been done on a greater
scale on the Pyrenees without France
protesting. There the matter rests.

TERMS OF CAPITULATION.
Mean What They Say and Include
Manila Only.

Washington. Aug. 21.-Not a word
was received during the day from Ad-
miral Dewey, Notwithstanding the fact
that cable communication with Manila
has again been opened. Among the
war officials the terms Of the capitula-
ton of Manila, as cabled by General
Merritt, was a topic of discussion. No
light has been thrown upon the terms
by General Merritt He cabled the
| terms thmesleVs, expecting probably to
forward by mail the construction
placed upon them by the American and
Spanish officers at Manila.
Unofficial advices from Manila re-
ceived previous to the arrival of the
text of the terms indicated that the
capitulation of the city included the
surrender of the Philippines and that
Spanish sovereignty over the entire
archipelago was, temporarily at least,
at an end. This view is not sustained
by the conditions of the surrender as
cabled by, General Merritt and, it may
be said, it is not the view taken by the
best in ofr1led officials of the admins
tration. While some of the war au-
thorities last night were inclined to the
opinion that the articles of capituia-
ton, necessarily temporary and natur-
ally somewhat elastic in their phrase
ology, might be construed to mean the
surrender of Spanish control over the
entire Philippines group, the prevalent
opinion now is that they mean pre-
cisely what they say and that the sur
render includes only the city of Ma
Mia and its immediate surroundings,
or suburbs as it is expressed in the
articles.
1t can be said authoritatively the
president is quite satisfied with the
terms as made by General Merritt and
Admiral Dewey Their instructions
afforded them considerable latitude for
individuality of action, the president
feeling confident that they would Sc
cure the best possible terms in the cir
cumstances. That they have done so,
he is certain.
1t is pointed out, that the terms of
the capitulation of Manila can have
but little effect upon the action of the
Paris peace commission, in any event
The protocol. as signed by the accred-
tied representatives of the governments
of the United States and Spain, pro-
vides for the cession of the city, bay
and harbor of Manila to the United
States and leaves to the peace commits
sion to determine the disposition and
government of the Philippine islands.
Whether. therefore, Spain is to retain
her sovereignty over the islands, is a
question to be decided by the Paris
commission. The action of the COM
mission is circumscribed by the pro-
visions of the protocol, while the terms
of the capitulation of Manila, it is sug-
gested, can have very little more Sc
rious effect upon the commissions
work than those of the surrender of
Santiago
Early in the afternoon Adjutant Cen
eral Corbin received the following dis
patch from General Merritt:

Z. OF P. ENCAMPMENT.
Over Five Thousand Uniformed
KNIGHTS Arrived Yesterday.

Indianapolis, Ind, Aug. 21.-Present
! indications point to large attendance
upon the biennial encampment of the
Knights of Pythias. An estimate of
the number Of the uniformed rank ar
irving today places the number at $500,
which does not include members of
subordinate lodges and women and
children. The encampment does not
open until Tuesday, but the city is al
ready crowded and has taken on a gala
day appearance. Supreme Chancellor
Colgrove has arrived and opened head
quarters, and Major General Carnahan
of the uniform rank is in charge of
Camp Colgrove, where enough tents are
in place to accommodate $1,000 men.
Today II. w. Bedding, imperial secre-
tary of the Dramatic Order knights of
Khorrassan, arrived from st. Louis in
a special car with so others. Imperial
Prince Einsey of Chicago is also here.
The Rathbone Sisters, the auxiliary
branch, is also represented by officers
and many others.
A majority of the supreme represent
atives have arrived, and the indications
point to the election Of Judge Stanton
L. Garter of California for supreme
vice chancellor The other aspirants
are Charles E. Shively of Indiana and
Ogden H. Fethers of Wisconsin.

Hongkong, Aug. 21.-Oficers of the
steamer China, from Manila. which has
arrived here, report that it was evident
that the resistance of the Soaniards
when Manila was attacked by the
Americans was merely nominal, and
was made solely to maintain the honor
of Spain. The officers talked with
express the belief that the escape of
Governor General August was pre-ar-
ranged, and was we'll understood by
Admiral Dewey.
A dispatch from Manila, dated Aug.
IS, says the total number of killed on
the American side during the attack
upon and capture of Manila was 46, and
the wounded about 100. The Spanish
losses were 200 killed and 400 wounded.
The fire of the Americans did practi-
cally no damage TO the towns nor to the
non-combatantS
The Americans had considerable diff
ficulty in keeping the insurgents out
of the city, only admitting those who
were without weapons. Five insurgents
were shot while looting at Tondo. An
inSurgent officer became involved in a
quarrel with Spaniard in the Escolta,
in the Binondo suburb, during which
the Spaniard fired upon the insurgent,
infiicting wounds in the latter's legs.
oned.
General Merritt has issued a procia-
nation, decreeing that the provisional
government and the local authorities
shall retain their offices and that every
thing shall remain unchanged for the
present, except so far as the supreme
jurisdiction is concerned. The procla-
nation further declares that any ma
tive who resists the present authorities
shall be treated as a law-breaker.
General JaudereZ. in the course of
an interview had with him by the rep
resentative of the Associated Press,
said he knew the fight was a hopeless
one, but that he intended to resist the
Americans in the name of honor, but
was persuaded to surrender for the
sake of the non combatants. He eulo-
gized the Americans for the humanity
they have shown.
The last official act of General Jau-
denez was to fine journalist for speak

Serious trouble is threatened by the
insurgents because they were prevent
ed from having their own way. They
assert that they are able to render the
islands untenable for anybody.

Spanish Government Decides to Pur-

chase 100000 Kilos.
Madrid, Aug. 21.-It is stated that the
cabinet has decided to make reDresen-
tations to the Washington government
regarding the conduct of the insurgents
in continuing to attack Spanish de-
tachments. 1t also agreed to pay the
reDatriated soldiers their arrears of
salary when they land in Spain.N and
resolved to purchase 250, 900 kilos of sill
yer for coinage. The question of the
personnel Of the peace commission has
not yet been definitely decided.
The government is disDleased with
the attitude of Captain Generals Macias
and Blanco. The latter has again pos
itively declined to preside over the
evacuation of Cuba. The captain gen
eral of the Canary islands was removed,
owing to his failing to agree with the
war minister's arrangements regarding
the disposition of troops.
The Catalan party in Barcelona is
agitating for the creation of an adj
ministrative provincial council offer
ing to pay the state 100000 DesetaS
annually for the privilege of autonomy.
Owing to the censorship there are
conflicting reports regarding the real
attitude Of the Carlists.
1t is understood Spain has afforded
England satisfactory explanation re-
garding the Notifications being erect
ed near Gibraltar, asserting that they
were only being constructed in view
of the expected American aggressions.
The good relations of the two govern
ments, it is declared, have not been dis
turbed

Sergeant Hallett Alsop Borrowe In a
Critical Condition-Michigan Sur
geon Died On the Voyage.

New York, Aug. 21.-The hospital ship

the afternoon of Aug. 20. AVast improve
ment in the majority of the cases OF
those i'll on the Olivette is reported. There
is today but small percentage of serious
cases. The trip was SUCCESSFUL in every
respect. The hard work and incessant at
tention of the medical .sta1- has done much

brought many through. The change to
cooler weather has been beneficial. The
Olivette was thoroughly inspected in every
nook and corner by the sanitary officers at

Sergeant Eallett Alsop Borrowe, who
arrived on the Olivette, was removed from
the transport to parlor car, which was
provided by his wife. and will be taken
to Shinnock.
He is suffering from malaria and his vi
tality has fallen to a low point. The
doctors who saw him after the arrival OF
the Olivette said he had fighting chance
for recovery, but their manner of speech
showed that they considered his case Sc
riouS and possibly fatal.
Governor Otero of New Mexico was in
camp today as the guest of the rough
riders. Company f of the regiment is
made up entirely from men from New
Mexico.
The City of Macon and the Mortera were

ton. The Mattewan anchored off Liberty

MONTANA REGIMENTS TROUBLES
Private Sentenced to Two Years and
Lieutenant Contaminated.
(Snecial 10 The HeraId)


Butte, Mont, Aug. 21.-Private Ed
Moran. OF company c, Montana regi-

Honolulu that he had been courtmar-

A NEW HIERARCHY.
Spanish Priests MAY Supersede the
Spanish Clergy.

London. Aug. 22.-The Vienna CORES
pondent Of the Times says: The Polit-
ische Correspondent publishes a dis
patch from Rome to the effect that the
vatican will Immediately open negotia-
tons with the United States for the ap-
pointment of a new hierarchy in the
Spanish colonies which come into the
possession of America 1t is anticipat-
ed that an agreement will be made sim
liar to that made after the annexation
of Mexican territory by the American
republic. There the Spanish clergy
were gradually superseded by priests
of other nationalities, chiefly French
men. The latter were found to be bet
ter suited to the purpose than English
and Irish priests, as they more readily
acquired knowledge of the Spanish
language and secured the confidence of
the inhabitants.
1t is thought probable that a similar
course will be adopted in Cuba, Porto
Rico, and, perhaps, eventually, in the
Philippines.
