DEPARTMENT OF SANTA CLARA.
Many Spanish Troops Remain, But
Everything Is Quiet.

Cienfuegos, Jan. 15.-The entire mill
tAry department of Santa Clara, Major
General ]. G Bates commanding, is
quiet. Twenty-seVen thousand Span
iards still remain in the vicinity of
CienfuegOS, but one transport is now
loading and twelve others are expected
TO arrive at an early date. 1t is i'm
probable, however, that the evacuation

ole Of February. The Spanish troops,
who are thickly quartered in the ware
houses and along the wharves, swarm
through the city day and night. Their
officers crowd the hotels. The soldiers
are poorly fed and have had no pay
for months. They are quiet enough,
but their presence makes impossible a
proper clearing of the town and pre-
vents activity on the part 81 the Amer
lean administration.
Six companies OF the Fourth
Tennessee regiment are at Trinidad,

the Sixth Ohio regiment is stationed
here. A battalion of the Sixth Ohio

The sixth Ohio men are living in
tents outside Cienfuegos and the gen
eral health OF the men is excellent The
Spanish barracks in town were found
in a wretched condition and quite IN
useable, but the barracks at Santa

dation and there is a well equipped
hospital there.

Representative Parry. r. C. Lund,
State Land Commissioner McFarlane

Postmaster A. L. Thomas Of this city,
looking to a change of the present mail
route from Milford to Cedar City, ST
George and adjacent towns in Iron and
Washington counties, to Lincoln coun-
ty, Nevada, and Mojave county, Ari-

route from Sulphur. on the Utah &

is only ninety miles, while the present
route from Milford TO st. George, via
Cedar City is 1T miles, and they ask
that this new route be established: also
for a branch to Paragoonah from Ce-

Gritty and lessened distance to be urged
in support of the new route. With

MADRID PRESS is SAD.

Lowering of the Spanish Flag Ends Four
Centuries of Colonial History.
MADRID, Jan. 3.-The New Year edi.
torials in the Madrid press are sad and
dignified reminders that the hosting of
the United States flag in Cuba and the
Philippines means the closing of four
centuries of Spanish colonial history.
With suppressed emotion rather than
bitterness the papers exhort the people
to have confidence in their recuperative
power, urging that there be the smallest
possible waste of time in recognizing
the affairs of the country and expressing
special desire for speedy settlement
of the cabinet crisis.
The general belief is that Senior Sa-
gasta will be able to resume his duties
as premier by the end of the week and
that he will form cabinet to include
Lieutenant General Weyler.

SYRACUSE, N. Y.,-Joseph N. Chenet OF

He thought Death had him, but he is alive
and perfectly well today.
Mr.. Chenet was in extremely bad health

treatment. When he told the specialist
that he had diabetes of four years standing.
the great man changed color, and after ex-
animation said: $50 home and enjoy what
comfort you may. You have but few
weeks to live. An operation was recon-
mended, but the specialist SAID the patient
must be stronger to undergoit. Mr.. Chenet
adds
'Ikept growing weaker and weaker. I
thought that death had me sure. One day
my sister IN Winnipeg sent me paper in

NOT VERY ENTHUSIASTIC.

Cubans Had but Few Cheers for tho
American Troops.
HAVANA, Jan. 3.-The parade Of the
United States troops, following the
change of flags, showed the feeling of
the Cuban element of the population.
The march was from Elvadado, along
the Archia del Norte, Prado and Cen
trail park to Cerreo and Quemedos.
Nearly every house displayed some
decoration-a palm branch, a bit Of
red, white and blue bunting or flag.
Not dozen flags were to be seen in the
stately Prado. In the Archia del Norte
the troops passed under the skeletons of
triumphal arches, left unfinished
when 1t was determined to post
pone the demonstration. The streets,
the parks and the waysides in the sub
urban districts were crowded with the
curious, but, for the most part, silent
spectators. Now and again there was a
cry "Viva los Americanos," followed
by burst of cheering, but there was
no general expression OF public re-
joicing, though Major General Lee,
who rode at the head of the column on
gray charger, received personal
ovation along nearly the entire route.

Ceremony of Transferring An
thority Very Simple = Stars
and Stripes Up.

HAVANA, Jan. 3.-The people of Ha-
vana are in joyfulmood in spite OF the
disappointment experienced over the
fact that the projected festivities have
been postponed. The resentment quickly
subsidized and gave place to composure.
Captain Greble, General Ludlow's adju-
tant general, visited all the United
States posts during the night. The city
was found to be tranquil. Major Gen.
eral Brooke's impressions of Cuba are
pleasing. He regards the people as be-
ing emotional, mild and orderly.
Americans are now conducting the
customs, postofice and telegraphs, in
fact all public business, with Spanish
and Cuban employees.
Colonel Bliss, the American collector
of customs, has been instructed by the
authorities at Washington not to appoint
Americans to subordinate places in this
or the other customs houses. Only Gu
bans are to be appointed.
The customs receipts here this week
will probably be heavy, as the mer-
chants stocks are low and several car
goes are due to arrive.
General Brooke will not govern from
the palace for week or two, as the
building needs thorough cleaning.
After the general takes up his headquar-
tiers in the palace, Mrs. Brooke will ar
range series of social functions The
headquarters for the present will be at
the generals hotel.
Generals Brooke and Ludlow see
many of the prominent Cubans. They
are easily accessible and wish to make
wide personal and official acquain-
lance.
AS the civil police is slowly formed,
the American troops will be sent into
the country. Colonel Moulton, who is
in command of the Havana police, had
as his first official duty to investigation
of case of cattle stealing.
General Ludlow visited Moro castle
and Cabanas fortress. The batteries OF
the Second artillery have been landed
from the United States transport Ches-
ter. One battery was sent to Moro
castle, another is garrisoned at Cabanas
fortress, third is stationed near the
palace and the other three batteries are
camped at Vedado.

by Stars and Stripes.

SPANS Red and Yellow Ensign Replaced
by Stars and Stripes.
HAVANA, Jan. 3.-The sovereignty
of Cuba passed from Spain to the Unit
ed States at noon. The form of the
transfer was simple, consisting only of
an exchange of speeches in the salon of
the palace, the hauling down of the
Spanish flag and the raising in its stead
of the flag of the United States on the
flagstaff on the palace roof. Salutes
were fired from the heavy guns of the
forts and the warships before and after
the change of flags. The raising of the
Stars and Stripes was greeted by cheers
of the people, who covered the roofs of
the buildings around the palace and the
plaza. No crowd was permitted to
gather in the streets in the vicinity of
the palace to witness the =
Epoch-Making Function.
At 9 o'clock a guard composed of the
Second battalion'of the Tenth infantry
marched into the Plaza de Armas under
command of Captain Van Vliet and
formed around the square. Captain
General Castellanos watched them with
interest from the balcony of his apart
ments as they entered the square and
were stationed at all the streets APP
preaching the plaza. No one was al
lowed to enter without pass and all
the doors of the palace facing the square
were ordered to be closed. Only those
who could get on the roofs and balco-
MES of the houses in the neighborhood
saw what was going on before the pal
ace. With the guard was the band Of
the Second Illinois regiment, which
had been selected for the occasion as the
Best Band in the Seventh Army Corps.
With the band were the buglers Of the
Eighth and Tenth infantry. At 11:10 a.
m. Major General Wade and Genera
Butler of the American evacuation COM
mission arrived from Elvadado on
horseback, accompanied by their stats.
Major General Brooke, governor general
of Cuba, and Major General Ludlow,
governor Of the city Of Havana, accom-
panied by their stats, arrived at 11:30

British Vice Consul Jerome introduced
him to General Maya Rodriguez.
Shaking botn the hands of the Cuban
officer in the usual Spanish fashion,
General Castellanos said: 1--WE have
been enemies, but [ respect you for your
correct attitudes and opinions. have
pleasure III shaking your hand. ;"
Captain General Castellanos then took
his position before General Brooke.
The buzz of conversation Oh the Amer
lean side of the chamber contrasted
with the silence. on the Spanish side.
There was a marked difference, too, be-
tween Americans and Spaniards, the
former tall, heavy and wearing much
gold cord, the latter small and slight in
blue striped cambria uniforms. The
Spaniards were depressed, the Amer
leans we've correspondingly buoyanl.
At the
East Stroke of Twelve
the boom of gun announced that the
American flag was being raised on the
staff on the roof Of the palace and that
the Stars and Stripes were going up on
all the other official stats in Havana.
The band on the plaza played ''The
Star Spangled Banner while the guns
of the fleet and fortresses began to roar
out the national salute Of 81 guns.
General Castellanos, in a brief address,
surrendered Spanish sovereignty, and
General Brooke accepted on. behalf OF
the United States. The Spanish cap
tain general at once proceeded to the
wharf, accompanied by Generals Clous
and Chaffee. and went aboard the trans
port Rabat for Natanzas. He gave a
last look at the city and with tears in
his eyes retired to his cabin. History
