the substance of an interview he has
had with Admiral Dewey, who is repre-
scented as having said:
Il was given to understand that the
American victories over Spain had ex-
cited ill-feeling against us in Europe,
but so far as l am concerned, the re-
ception given me could not have been
more flattering.

any American prejudices against
Europe, excited by criticism on Amerl-

Admiral Dewey, according to the
Daily Mails correspondent, refused to
talk regarding the Philippines, but the
correspondent asserts that he has the
best of reasons to know that Admiral
Dewey does not share the pessimistc
view of some Americans about the pos
sibility of subjugating the insurgents.

SPANISH GENERALS ACQUITTED
NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE
FALL OF SANTIAGO.
Those High In Command In Colonies
and Spain Censured - Judgment
Unsatisfactory.

Madrid, Aug. 6.-The supreme court
martial, before which Generals TOral
and Parcja have been on trial, charged
with surrendering Santiago to the
American forces without having eX-
hausted all means of defense, has
acquitted both officers, on the ground
that they acted upon the orders of their
superiors, and only surrendered when
it was impossible to do otherwise.
The judgment severely censures those
in high command in the colonies and
in Spain, as well as the government,
which is held responsible for the lack OF
resources for the defense of the col
on:es.
