cUBANs RESENT
 STARTERS ATTITUDE.
They Approve of Garcia's Action IL Sending In His Resignation to
 General Gomez.

Santiago de Cuba, July 23, 10 p. III. via Kingston, July 26.--The Cubans here resent General Shafter's attitude in ig- noring General Garcia and refusing to allow the Cuban troops to enter Santia- go or to consult General Garcia on the terms of the surrender of the city. General Garcia's action in withdrawing his troops into the interior, his letter to General Shafter and the resignation of his command forwarded to General Gomez, are approved and applauded by all classes of natives.
 General Garcia refused to accept a subordinate place, insisting that he was an ally General Shafter's answer, say ing that this was war between the United States and Spain irrespective of Cuba's individual interest and President McKinley's instructions with reference to the administrationso .he surrendered district, published here Saturday, are interpreted as tacit ayowal of Ameri- ca 8 intention to annex the island and not to grant independence.
 This is opposed by the Cubans. Sen- or Joaquin Castillo, president of the San Carlos Cuban club, and brother of General Castillo, urges an official pro- test to President Mckinley without de- lay, saying silence now would indicate our consent to the American attitude which is plain breach of faith that the Cubans cannot possibly tolerate"
 A meeting was held this afternoon at the San Carlos club to discuss the mat ter and it is probable that protest was drawn up which will be submitted.
 It is understood that many who were present at the meeting favored the scheme of protectorate by the United States with eventual annexation after five or six years, but the protest Is on 8 matter of principle, the main objection being the continuation i'll office of Span ish officials appointed by Madrid on the ground that Spaniards, as a conquered nation, should not be vested with au- thority over Cubans, the allies and coad- tutors of the United States and the rep resentatives of a free and independent people. Such is understood to have been the tenor of the meeting.
 The document which is being eircu- lated for signatures among Cuban resi- dents i'll Santiago addressed to the president of the United States thanking him for the cooperation of the army of the United States and expressing the hope that the American government will recognize Cuban sovereignty in the surrendered portion of the province of Santiago de Cuba, was drafted by Arms, the newspaper correspondent on the staff of the Cuban general, Castillo, who drafted the alleged letter of protest from General Garcia to General Shafter.

ENTITLED TO NO
 CONSIDERATION AT ALL
schley Tells Spanish Officer That His Men Do Acts That Are Dishon-
 orable Tn War.

Guantanamo Bay, July 26 When Admiral Cervera and the other officers of the fleet of Spain were about to sail on the St Louis as prisoners of war, it was discovered by Flag Lieutenant James H. Sears that the officers of the Cristobal Colon had their logbooks with them. He reported the fact to Commo dore Schley, who, at once ordered them seized.
 The second officer i'll command, Adol- phus Contreros, came aboard the Brook lyn and asked that they be returned, as they were the only records saved. Com modore Schley said:
 q will turn them over to my govern ment for information.
 Contreros stormed and pleaded, and finally Commodore Schley lost his temp CT, as much as he ever does-and that is little-and said:
 ''I do not see that you are entitled to any consideration at all. You sunk your ships after you had surrendered You ruined your guns and did every thing that dishonora ble enemy could think of. I shall hold your log
 The story told by the logbook is an interesting one. The minute details as translated by Lieutenant Benjamin Wells Jr., from the daily record, con stitute complete story of the move. ments of Admiral Cervera's fleet from the time it left Spain to the memorable day of destruction.

An impression seems to have been made that the United States dOes not furnish sufficient rations for the volunteers.
