BEWARE OF INTERMEDDL1NG.
Europe Warned Against Accusing the
American PEOPLE

London, July 2S.-The Vienna CORE
spondent of the Times gives the views
of competent observer" particularly
emphasizing the advisability of Europe
preserving the strictest neutrality and
allowing America to settle her differ
ences with Spain unhindered by foreign
intervention.
The competent observer says in
this case the traditional peace-loving
element of the United States will pre-
vail, and the present war, with it's de-
sire for territorial expansion, will re-
main mere episode, not affecting the
future policy of the United States
Any European rneddling or ill-ad-
vised attempt to deprive them of the
fruit of victory would be likely to
arouse the spirit of defiance and throw
the high-spirited American people into
the arms of jingoes. In that event the
United States, possessing all material
resources. would become a great mill
tary and naval power, able at any mo-
meht to offer an alliance to the highest
bidder, disturbing the balance of power
in Europe and menacing the peace of
the world. In short, on this question
hangs the decision whether America is
to acquire colonies or only coaling sta

NO MONEY AT SANTIAGO.
Supplies Taken In, But Merchants
Are Afraid to Buy.

Washington, July 27.-The war de-
partment today made public the fol-
lowing, received from General Shafter,
in response to a query by the depart
ment as to ships being turned away
from Santiago:
Press reports not true / only know
of three ships having arrived, one from
Kingston, the others from the United
States. The Bratton has sold its cargo.
The other ship. from New Orleans. has
sold only a part of it, and tells me he
is going away tonight. / think he will
sell before he leaves. The trouble is
they did not expect to pay any duty,
and arrived here without money. The
Spanish customs, as applied to Span
ish subjects, has only been collected,
and the 20 cents per ton. as ordered by
the secretary. l discovered this morn
ing an attempt on the part of the
municipality to collect a tax of 40 cents
per 100 kilos, in this instance amount
ing to s.. 500 I had already settled this
matter by ordering its non-collection.
The fact is there is no money here to
do business, and merchants are very
timid about making purchases, fearing
the effect of the Red Cross supplies,
who really are feeding the town. The
New Orleans man, for instance,
brought 90 head of cattle, which sold
at SIS per head; the person buying kills
one day, selling the meat at 20 cents
per pound OF course only a few people
buy. The first week we were here peo-
pie were starving to death, and 1 think
a few now are dying from the eff
fects of starvation. l am positive.
however, that the customs have been
honestly administered"

Spaniards at Guantanamo Were Too
Weak to Stand.
NO FOOD FOR EIGHT DAYS
STILL THEY GAMELY HELD
THEIR POSITION.
Refused to Surrender Until the News
of Capitulation Was Officially
Confrmed-Caimanera Surrenders
and Is Found to Be Strongly For
tified-Santiago Trade Conditions.

Copyright. 1885, by the Associated Press)
Santiago de Cuba, July 27.-Lieuten-
ant Colonel Angel Resell, who, after
taking confirmation of the instructions
TO surrender from General Toral to
General Baroja, military governor of
Guantanamo, returned here this after
noon, said to an Associated Press cor
respondent that the first intimation
that Guantanamo had of the surren-
der of Santiago and the terms thereof,
was Non July g. when Rear Admiral
Sampson sent a letter to General Par
ola, asking what number of ratiOns
should be sent to his garrison, as they
had surrendered on the 18th.
General Paroja, being ignorant of the
surrender refused to credit the mes
sage and accept rations, answering Ad-
miral Sampson to that effect. Admiral
Sampson then sent a copy of the terms
of surrender, whereupon General Par
ola decided to inquire of General Toral
at Santiago whether the news was
true; and Lieutenant Colonel Resell
was appointed to come here. He re-
turned with this confirmation, and the
surrender of Guantanamo took place
yesterday.
Colonel Resell says the conditions of
Guantanamo are awful, and the troops
are literally starving. For the last
eight days they have had no food. On
mounting guard, the soldiers were
obliged to sit, being too weak to stand,
and it was impossible to make them
build trenches, as they fell from ex-
haustion. There are 1000 sick in Guam
tanamo, suffering from diseases in
creased by hunger.
The French cruiser Rigault de Ge-
nouilly was refused permission by Adj
miral Sampson to land grain and provi-
sions for the relief of the French colony
at Guantanamo. All hope was aban-
doned and the sufferers were awaiting
death from starvation.
The conditions of Guantanamo, Col
onel Resell says, are worse than those
at Santiago.
Lieutenant Colonel Ewens of the
Ninth infantry received the surrender
of Guantanamo yesterday. The Span
ish troops will remain in the town until
transported.

listen with patience to a proposal for
an armistice which would cut short
the deliberately planned and highly
promising campaign just begun in
Porto Rico, and would even renew
temporarily Spain'S lease of power in
Manila, now momentarily threatened
with capture by the American forces in
the Philippines.
To NJ. Cambon's representation, Pres
ident Mckinley is understood to have
replied that the United States would be
glad to enter upon peace negotiations
on the understanding that Spain is to
abandon her sovereignty over both
Cuba and Porto Rico, and to acknowl-
edge this country'S right to shape the
future destiny of the Philippine group.
On these terms peace could easily and
promptly be restored. NJ. Cambon was
authorized, of course, to make no COM
ment on the conditions suggested by
the administration, and simply under
took to transmit them through his
home government to the cabinet at
Madrid.
1t is expected that as a result of to-
days rather tentative exchange of
views, the Spanish government will
perhaps submit counter proposals for a
treaty of peace, disclosing the maxi
mum of the demands which it is now
ready TO grant. IL Premier SagaSta' S
desire TO end the war is sincere his re-
turn propositions are counted on by the
authorities here to make clear the fact.
If, on the other hand, he submits con-
ditions of peace which the United
States will be compelled to dismiss as
trivial and unwarranted, the failure of
the Madrid government to appreciate
the straits to which it has already been
driven viii be taken as a warning that
to secure peace on rational basis the
war must be prosecuted by the country
to bitter and relentless end.
The reception given today's over
lures in Spain itself will perhaps dem
onstrate shortly whether the Spanish
people are weary or not of the present
struggles. On the temper disclosed will
depend greatly the conditions offered in
Senior Sagasta's expected note.
Too much Importance should not,
of course, be attached to the very color
less and tentative oyertures for a ces-
sation of hostilities made by Spain
through NJ. Cambon. But that even
the first step toward peace should be
taken at this early stage Of the con-
flict has undoubted significance. 1t
demonstrates that peace is held to be
obtainable by both hostile govern
ments, and when that conclusion is
reached in warfare, peace may be said
to be not far out of sight.

SPANS TRICKERY.
Already Attempting to Take Advan-
tage of Technicalities.

London, July 2S-The Madrid CORE
spondent of the Daily Mail says: Spain
will probably protest against an at
tack upon Porto Rico after the Wash
lngton cabinet has officially received
Spanish overtures for peace. Should a
circular note on this subject be sent to
the powers, it will contain the exact
dates of the Spanish communications,
making it clear that the United States
deferred its answer in order to be able
to date this after the Americans had
gained a footing in Porto Rico.
Senior Sagasta said today: I'VE re-
solved on peace many days ago. and
made known our resolutions to the
United States government. 1 regard as
null and void and as destitute of good
faith everything that the Americans
have done since, and am ready to pro-
test against it formally"

it is reported that the request of Duke
Almadovar de Rio, minister of foreign
affairs. was for an armistice lasting
until Sunday. 1t cannot be ascertained
whether his action was spontaneous. in

vasion of Porto Rico and the fall of
Manila, or whether IL was due to the
advice from the vatican and the

DAVIS ON FOREIGN AFFAIRS
MINNESOTA SENATOR SEES
TROUBLE IN THE EAST.
Views Expressed at the Minnesota
Capitol Corner Stone Exercises
No Backward Step For America.

st. Paul, Mimi, July 27.-With great
ceremony, in the presence of an i'm
mense concourse of people this after
noon. Hon. Alexander Ramsey, terrific
rial governor, only survivor of the
/ famous Union war governors, ex-secre-
tary of war and ex-United States SEN
ator. laid the corner stone of Mime
sofas capitol building in this city. The
g. 100000 building was designed by
Cass Gilbert, a st. Paul architect, and
is being constructed of granite from st.
Cloud, with Georgia marble for super
structure and trimmings. Archbishop
Ireland prayed. The principal Grafton
was delivered by United States Senator
Cushman X. Davis, chairman of the
senate committee on foreign relations,
and the benediction was pronounced by
the venerable Bishop Whipple of the
Episcopal church.
The speech of Senator Davis was de-
voted largely to a discussion of the for
eign affairs of the government. He
spoke hopefully of the better relations
between the United States and Great
Britain, but the situation in the far
east he described as being pregnant
with war" and he declared that the re-
cent aggressions by the powers of Eu-
rope on China were acts of war.
Next to China" he said, the Pa
cific possessions of the United States
are the most inviting objects of attack
Under existing conditions their defense
would be difficult. Had Spain tri-
umphed at Manila as decisively as did
the United States, her navy could have
seized Honolulu and have operated
from there upon the entire coast of the
United States from Mexico to the Yu-
kon. An overpowering European force
in the Asiatic waters could do the same
thing; so could Japan"
Senator Davis declared the situation
to be one of alternatives, and said the
United States must become an efficient
element in the Asiatic situation or must
entirely abstain from any participation
in it, resting content to return to its
own shores to cover the smallest pos
sible share of its commercial adVan-
tages and to prepare for its own de-
Tense against the same aggressions
which have reduced China to her pres
ent condition. The senator believed,
however, that thu United States should
take no backW ard course. He favored
the maintaining of the present excel
lent condition of the United States
navy and the making of liberal appro-
priations for its maintenance and the
immediate construction of the Nicara-
guam canal he declared to be of the
highest Importance. Recent events, he
said. had demonstrated this

PROTEST FROM FRANCE.
Immediate Release of a French
Steamer Demanded.

Washington. July 2,-The French en-
bassy has called the attention of the state
department to the circumstances con-
nected with the seizure of the French mer-
chant steamship Olirde Rodriguez and
has requested the immediate release of
that steamer This action was taken sim
ultaneously with protest from the
French transatlantic steamship company
against the seizure
The state department has submitted all
the papers in the case to the department
of justice with a view to getting an opin-
ion on the legal questions involved.
The grounds Of the representations by
the embassy are that the Rodriguez was
engaged in ordinary mercantile pursuits
and also has on board the official mail of
the French government, destined to the
French minister at Port au Prince. 1t is
said that her manifest shows she was
not intending to enter a blockaded port
The representations are those usually
made in behalf of French interests and
there is no\ disposition at the state de-
partment to regard them as other than
friendly inquiry.
