ter general, who was assigned to this duty by General Shaft6r. General Lud- low was sent to Aserradero to confer with General Garcia. and he went there in company with General Shafter. In addition to this he says he had other duties to perform. Only enc man, four mules and two horses were lost during the landing operations, which, he says, was a wonderful result With such large expedition.
 General Ludlow denies General Miles's statement that he was ordered to get everything needed for the expe- dition. The only order he received, he says. was enc instructing him to join General Shafter and to cooperate with him under his orders. Later, when General Miles went to Tampa, the re- port says, he wished General Ludlow to abandon General Shafter and join the Porto Rico expedition. General Shafter kept him, and General Miles finally consented to this, but since then, General Ludlow says, General Miles has shown hostility to him. On his re- turn to Santiago General Miles said to him: "I know you did good fighting, but the engineering was very. bad General Ludlow answered that the en- gineering was as good as the fighting. He thinks it strange that General Miles should now say that the pontoons he had were useless. General Ludlow says these pOntoons proved good and everything was all right during the dis embarkatiOn.
 General Ludlow's report is practical- ly a summary of all his doings during the campaign, and he arraigns Gen eral Miles pretty severely fer making misstatements concerning him.

Wasningto Jan 28.-A spirited de- bate was precipitated In the senate to- day while the diplomatic and consular appropriation bill was under consider ation.

 There were various Interruptions by other senators, who, however, confined themselves to questions. h reply to one of these questions, relating to the presidents instructions, MT Frye said that the commissioners were in con- stant communication with tie presi- dent and that the latter had cabled them to dse thei, best judgment in reaching conclusions. He said there were SIP, 100000 of claims. Spain had agreed as an offset to this concession on our part to pay the claims of Span ish citizens against the Un ted States government, but MC. Frye admitted that the aggregate of these counter claims was not large.
 The effort of the American commits sioners to secure control of the Caro- line islands was also explained, Mr. Frye stating that the Spanish com
 
 discuss the proposition. Our offer of $1,00O,0OO for he islands had appeared to have no effect whatever. They had even declined in the most positive manner to cede one Of the islands of this group as a cable station.
 Senator Davis answered a question put by Senator Mason. The question was whether it was the purpose of the United States to pay the $20,000.000 in- demnity until the United States should come into the full possession and oc- cupation of the country ''I want to know" the Illinois senator said whether we are to pay the money be- fore the goods are delivered" Mr. Davis understood that the ratification of the treaty bound us to the payment of the indemnity, regardless of the at titude of the natives of the Philippines.
 The concurrent resolution adopted by the New Hampshire legislature urging the speedy ratification of the treaty was presented by Mr. Gallinger of New Hampshire.
