Santiago a Hard Place to Reach-Spanish
Fleet Poweriess II Bottled UP There
Boston. May 25.-Dr. p. f. Hyatt,
United States consul at Santiago de
Cuba, arrived here to-day from Port
Antonio, Jamaica, to which place he
removed from Santiago, just previous
to the declaration of war with Spain.
DR.: Hyatt states that when he lett
Cuba on April q, things were In a bad
condition, and there was much feeilng
over his action in turning over Amerl-
can interests TO the British consul.
DR.. Hyatt says that the harbor OF
Santiago is mined, especially at Its
mouth, and the entrance is tortuous.
Little can be seen from the outside, so
winding Is the entrance.
IF the Spanish fleet is really within
the harbor,' he said, lit is bottled up
and as good as demolished The guns
for the most part are not of the latest
pattern. although there are some tip
top onss. But the American squadron
could easily silence them all.
THE Cuban government quarters
are within forty miles of Santiago,
near Bayamo.

continued DR.. Hyatt, things were in
pretty bad condition. Up to that time
Governor Capriles. of the Santiago dis
trict, did not apprehend any such thing
as war, nor, in fact, did |.
II was the last American consul to
leave Cuban soil With me also came
thirty-two other Americans.
Il turned everything over to the care
of the British consul. Frederick Rams
den. including about $50 tons of pro-
visions for the reconcentradoes, for
distribution. This was the cause of
much trouble The Spaniards did not
seem TO care so much when the supplies
were distributed by the American con-
sui, but quite bad feeling was dis
played when it was learned the Brit
ish consul was to continue the work of
relief.
The reconcentra6oes for the most
part are old men and women and child
rem. They are much despised by the
Spaniards and ill-treated Their death
rate was 10 a week before the relief
measures were adopted by the United
States. After that the death rate fell

in foreign lands.
Mr.. Speer made strong plea for an
increase in the receipts of the foreign
missionary board and an eloquent APP
peal for renewed contributions to its
work At the close the speaker was
greeted by prolonged applause. The for
eign missionaries who are commits
sioners to the assembly, were called to
the platform. About twenty responded
and representatives from India, Persia,
Japan and Korea occupied considerable
time.
The much discussed book, "A His
tory Of Christianity in the Apostolic
Age by Prof. A. c. McGiffert D. D.,
of the New York presbytery, was put
before the general assembly to-day. An
overture from the presbytery OF Pitts
burg precipitated the matter, by charg-
ing the author as a professor in the
Union Theological Seminary. with a
denial of the fundamental doctrines Of
evangelical Christendom The over
ture has been in the hands Of the
committee several days. Three re-
ports were made, the majority of the
committee recommending that the as
sembly take no action, but allow Prof.
McGiffert to explain his position or re-
tire from the Presbyterian ministry
The first minority report asks that
the matter be referred to the New
York presbytery for action and settle
ment. The second recommends no ac-
ton, but condemns the alleged errone-
Gus teaching of Prof. McGiffert. The
assembly postponed action on the re-
ports until Friday. The beard of mis-
sion publications, which was adopted,
