IN COLOMBIAN WATERS.
An italian Squadron Prepared to

An italian Squadron Prepared to
support Itaiy's Demand.
The State Department has been inform
ed that the Italian squadron under Admiral
Candiani has reached Colombian waters,
preparatory to making a demand on the re-
public of Colombia for the immediate pay
ment of $3.50, 900, awarded by President
Cleveland to Ernesto Cerrut, an Italian
citizen. 1t is not known that the squadron
has yet made his demand, or that any
force to execute it has been exerted On
the contrary the department has been Off
cially advised that the admirafs instruc-
tions are confined to making a demand for
the complete and speedy settlement" of
the award made by the President of the
United States. His instructions do not go
to the extent Of directing him to seize the
custom house at Carthagena, as was first
reported. 1t is said by officials, however,
that when a government directs an admiral
to make demand, the appearance of his
squadron is in itself demonstration of
force and a threat that unless settlement is
made the squadron Is prepared to enforce
settlement In a summary manner AL
though Admiral Candiani is now prepared
to exert force the impression prevails at
the state Department today that a settIe-
ment will be reached without the actual ex-
ercise of force. Although not officially ad-
mitted the fntimatfon is made that since
Colombia requested the good Offices of the
United States these have been exerted 10
the extent of suggesting to the Colombian
government that settlement was desir-
able.

hospital headquarters will be Immediately

The truce which was to end at noon today
was prolonged by a flag sent out from the
Spanish lines at $3.50 this morning.
Gen. Toral, acting on Captain General
Bianco's instructions, asked time to COM
municate by cable with Madrid, the sur
render OF Santiago being too important a
step to be taken without royal authority
In the meantime Gen. Blanco offered to
appoint joint commission TO arrange
terms.
General Miles and General Shafter de-
cfded to call for personal interview with
General Toral. his messages being ambigu-

render at a personal interview with Gen
eral Shafter this afternoon, at which Cen
eral Miles was present.
The victorious army after a campaign
OF three weeks Of almost unprecedented
hardships for both officers and men accept
ed the news with heartfelt relief.
The victory is greater than appeared at
first. All the Spanish troops in the fourth
corps, the military division of Santiago
province, from a line drawn north from
Aserradero eighteen miles west of San
tiago, through Las Paimas, Palmas Sori-

Skaters Explanation.
General Shafter bears his honors modest
ly. To correspondent of the Associated
Press he said:
1.-The enemy has surrendered all the ter
ritory and troops east of Santiago. The
terms were dictated from Washington. 1t
hardest ever saw. The difficulties to con-
tend with were very great.
Never during our civil war were more
difficult problems solved. The character of
the country and the roads made it seem
almost impossible to advance in the face
of the enemy, The transportation was
hard. but all the difficulties have been
successfully surmounted. Our troops have
behaved gallantly. They fought like he
roes, and 1 am proud to have commanded
them. During all the hardships they have
suffered they have shown resolution and
spirit. They deserve to conquer.
THE resistance of the enemy has been
exceedingly stubborn. Gen. Toral has
proved himself a foeman worthy o: any
mans steel.
THE negotiations which eliminated in
the surrender of Gen. Toral have been
dragging on for ten days, with .ha inter-
mission of Sunday and Monday, when our
batteries and fleet bombarded the enemy's
position. .
Throughout these periods of truce Gen.
Toral has shrewdly played for time, al
ways declining to surrender unconditionaI-
ly and falling back, when hard pressed.

subordinate and powerless to agree to the

Gazette today publishes a royal decree
temporarily suspending throughout the
Spanish peninsula the rights Of individuals
as guaranteed by the constitution.
The decree adds that the government
will render an account to parliament of
the use it may make of this measure
The publication OF the decree is gener-
ally accepted as being convincing proof
that Spain is now ready to sue for peace
and that negotiations to that effect are
actually in progress.
The government wishes to have full pow
er to suppress any evidences of discon-
tent or rebellion whenever they appear.
The Carlists are furious and are sure to
attempt to create trouble.
One minister expressed the conviction
that official overtures for peace will be
made before Sunday, and there is reason
TO believe France has offered her services

The minister for war, Gen. Correa, is

The United States and Spain to agree to
let the Cubans decide by a plebiscite
whether they desire independence or au-
tonomy under the suzerainty of Spain.
The two governments to.agree to abide
by the result of the plebiscite.
In the event of the Cubans voting for in
dependence the United States to allow
Spain nine months in which to withdra W
her army, gradually and; dignifedly, from
Cuba.
The pacific tendency is increasing. The
general public take a favorable view of the
suggestion that the powers should attempt
the re-establishment of peace, but, it is
said, contrary to the reports current,
France has not taken the initiative.
