PREPARING A HARD LUCK STORY
One day last week the actual though
unusual scene was presented OF a shabbiIy
clad and uncouth man purchasing a a
grocery store Is cents worth of cigars. a
pound OF chewing tobacco and 10 cents
worth Of sugar. What he intended to do
with all that sugar is not known. but it
is safe to say he went horne and grumbled

WASHINGTON, Aug. Il. Admira

bombardment and surrender of Mani
la has been received as follows:
MANILA. Aug. ID.
To SECRETARY NAVY, WASHINGTON
Manila surrendered to-day TO IN,
American land and naval forces, aftel
a combined attack. A division OF tn,
squadron shelled the forts aud in
trenchments at Malate. on the south
side of the city, driving back the
enemy, our army advancing from
that side at the same time. The
city surrendered about five o'clock
the American flag being hoisted by
Lieut.. Brumby. About 1000 prisoners
were taken. The squadron had no
casualties. none of the vessels were in
jured.
On August :. Gen Merritt and form
ally demanded the surrender of the
city, which the Spanish governor-gen-
eral refused
tSignedl DEWEY.
Lieut.. Brumby is Admiral Dewey's
flag lieutenant
A. the Matter Now stands.
Now that the surrender is officiall v
reported. il can be stated that Manila
is being held by virtue of the military
occupation and surrender. and not by
virtue OF the protocol The difference
is said to amount 10 little in practical
results, vet, such as il is, all Off
Gals agree that the occupation is
the result of the combined mill tary
and naval operations. According TO
Admiral Dewey's dispatch, the surren-
der occurred about p N. last satur-
day. The peace protocol was signed at
4:23 p. IN. on Friday. 1t is said
that the difference in time be-
tween Manila and Washington is
such that the surrender. reckoned
on Washington time. would be about
twelve hour ahead Of the time at Ma
Mia. or about a. m, Saturday. In
point of actual time, therefore the
peace protocol preceded the actual sur
render OF Manila by few hours
But it is a well established rule
of military law, accepted the world
over. that peace armistice or cessa-
ton Of hostillties, does not become
binding upon commanding officers un-
ill they receive actual notice of it,
This rule is expressed in the United
States regulations governing armies in
