hideous. Had three doctors at different times,

WILL NOT SURRENDER

Spaniards in Santiago Are Still
_ ,Bitterly Defiant.

 

WILL DIE BU’l‘ NEVER YIELD.

Linares’s Reply to Shatter Was, "Tnis
Garrison Dies, but Never Sui-renders.”
The Armistice Not Ofllcialy Recognized
and Men Warned to Keep Out of Sight.

Spaniards Anxious to Leave the City.
A Desperate Panic

Before Sant‘go, July 7.-—Not a shot
has been exchanged between the op-
posing armies since Tuesday noon.
At the request of the foreign consuls
in Santiago de Cuba General Shaft'er
extended until to-day noon the period
within which General Linares may
agree to surrender his fiorces,_under;
the threat that'itne'town‘ will be bom-
barded. The Spanish general‘s decis-
ion is doubtful. It is unquestionably
true that the annihilation of Admiral
Cervena’s fleet was a staggering blow
to him, but Mr. Ramsden, the British
consul, says General Pando 'ha's rein-.
forced General Linarcs with five thou-
sand troops, and rthat the Spaniards
are bitterly determined to fight it out.
He said that so intense was the feel-
ing among the Spanish subalvtcrn offi-
cers that General Linares would prob-
ably be shot if be surrendered. Their
attitude was expressed in Gen. Linares’
reply to General Shatter yesterday:

“This garrison dies, but never sur-
renders."

Among some of the soldiers, howev-
er, a different feeling must prevail.
They have ascertained from the expe-
rience of the inhabit-ants of Siboney

 

that American soldiers respect life and
property and relieve prisoners in dis-
tress. Many of the Spaniards, there-
fore, are now utterly indifferent if
further misfortune be-falls the Spanish
army.

The armistice is not officially recog-
nized and our boys have been cau-
tion-ed to keep out of .sight, as a stray
shot atiany time may precipitate gen-
eral firing along the line.

In spite of. the reports brought by
the consuls of the determination of
the Spaniards to continue the contest
there is a strong hope here that Gen-
eral Linares will capitulafe. No other
construction can be placed upon his
disposition to negotiate. '

Rain poured down in torrents for
hours, but a traverse to the hillside

had been cut in the trenches after'yes- '

tc-rday’s experience and our men did
, .

. not suffer very much.‘

 

Kingston, Jamaica, July 7.——-—T'h0us-
ands of people met the launches of the
foreign warships at the waterside at

» San-tiagow-hen they came to take away

refugees. __

The British and Australian consulates
Were besieged by hundreds imploring
a chance to leave."'0ne Spanish mer-
chant, in a pitiable state of alarm,
offered the British'consul, Mr. Rams-
den, $16,Q00 in gold to designate him
as a British-Cuban, worthy to be tak-
en away. .

Those brought to Jamaica came in
the clothes they stood in, some even
with absolutely no kind of baggage,
having thought only of‘escaping with
their lives. "

The non-camba‘tants in the city were
in a state of desperate panic. Miss
Ramsden, the British consul’s daugh-
ter, says that the American shells flew
around their house on Saturday and
Sunday morning. Mr. Ramsden could
not leave Santiago and his wife Would
not. - -
What the St. Paul Carried.

New York, July 7.——-The steamer St.
Paul, Captain Sigsbee, which left this
port last night for Santiago with the
Eighth Ohio volunteers on board, car-
ried several other passenger's. Among
them was Congressman James Wads-
worth of Genesee, a. member of the na—
val committee of the House of Repre~
sqntatives. His object or plans are not
known. Beside-s General Henry and
staff and Congressman Wadsworth,
was Captain Charles J. Goff, assistant
quantermaster general of volunteers,
who goes to establish a. quartermaster’s
depot at Santiago. Santiago will be
used after its reduction as a base not
only for Cuban operations, but also for
Porthican, it is understood. Twelve
laborers and four carpenters accom-
panied Captain Goff to put up storage
sheds for the c'ommlssary supplies.
Brigadier General Ajelberrt L. Ames
recently appointed brigadler general of
volunteers, was ordered by Secretary
Alger to take passage on ,the St. Paul
and report to General Shafter at San-
tiago for assignment to duty under 'his
command.

The St. Paul carried a motley assort-
ment of cargo, ranging from ten-penny
nails to smokeless powder for Admiral
Sampson’s fleet. Tents, wire- cutters,
more uniforms of blue and canvas,
nails, leather, rope, blacksmiths’ and
carpenters' Supplies and probably 1,-
000,000 rounds of rifle cartridges were
carried on the cruiser to General Shaf— .
ter.

The Troops Ordered South With So Much
I! Dispatch Intended for San Juan In-
stead of Santiago. Our Purpose is to
Seize the Last of Spain’s Possessions in
the \Vestern Hemisphere Before the

\Var Ends.

VVashingiton, D. 0., July 7.—Ar.my
circles received something of a sur—
prise y-esterday when it was semi-oili-
cially announced that Major General
James F. Wade is to command the
Porto Rico expedition.

This information comes from a relia-
ble administration source, as does also
the statement .that' the troops that are
now being hurried to various points on
the sea coast are reall Ylntended for
service at San Juan.

The assignment of Major General
Wade to command the expedition to
Porto Rico is a. recent change in the
programme, for it is known absolutely
that Major General Brooke had been
promised this command.

Less than ten days ago 'Gen. Brooke
wrote to the war department and
strongly urged that he be given active
field duty.

Secretary Alger replied to 'him by
stating that when the Porto Rico ex-
pedition was prepared to start Brboke
should be placed at the head of it.

General Wade is an Ohio man and
his political friends have been busily
at work for the past two weeks, and
the result is understood to be a. victory
for him and an overthrow for Brooke.
General Wade is a. son of former Sena-
tor Wade of Ohio, who is a great per-
sonal friend of President McKinley.

This combination was too strong for
Brooke and unless something better
turns up for General Wade the latter
will command the expedition to Porto
Rico. He is at present at the head of
the Third Army Corps at Chickamau—
ga. '
A close friend of the president says
that the great bust-le- an'd hurry in the
war depantment Tuesday and yester-
day is caused by the preparations to get
an army off to capture San Juan.

'The administration is of the opinion

that as soon as Admiral Sampson is
able to enter the harbor and~bring his
guns to play on Santiago there will be
little further hard work for General
S‘haf-ter’vs,men and thaFt'he surrender of
the city will quickly follow. It is also
thought that the number of trops now
there is sufiicient to assure V.iCtOTy.'~"
‘ With this idea in view hulrnied'plans
are being perfected for taking, theilast
of the Spanish possessions on this hem—
isphere. While the troops that are now
being concentrated at New York
Charleston, NeWport News, Mobile and
Savannah are, to all outward appear-
ances, bound for Santiago, there is
slight hope of their being landed in
Cuba. - ‘ -

When they sail from American ports
it will probably be for San Juan.

The department will communicate
with General Wade in the Wirfiiward
passage before the latter strikes at San
Juan. If it should appear that there
is need for more men at Santiago this
expedition will be deflected from its
original course and sent to Shaftcr's
aid.-

 

ANNEXATION sLLL PASSED

 

Mealure Empowers Bresident McKinley
to Provide for Temporary Govurninent.

Vflashington, July 7.—By a vote of 42
to 21 the Senate yesterday afternoon
passed thejoint resolution annexing the
Hawaiian islands. .

The president will approve the reso—
lution as soon as it reach‘es him, and
the annexation of tl.e“‘is.lands will be
completed.

Rear Admiral Miller, commanding
the Pacific station, will have the hon-
or of raising the American negatHon-s
olulu, and it is expected he will sail
from San Francisco for Hawaii by the
end of this week in the Philadelphia,
his flagship.

The resolution ezzizpoWers the presi—
dent to provide for the government of
the island until Congress shall pass
the necessary legislation on this sub-
ject, and it is expected that President
McKinley will appoint Mr. Dole, the
present president of the Hawaiian re-
public to be governor general of the
islands.

Senator Allison expressed the opin-
ion yesterday that Congress would ad-
journ before the close of the present
week. ' -

Census Bill Held Up.

Washington, July 7.—There is little
expectation that the census bill, which
has passed the Senaic. will get through
the House this sessiw . It provides for
filling the-3,000 cl-e:r.cal positions in
Washington involved in the undertak-
ing on the spoils basis, which would be
perhaps twenty government salaries
at the disposal of each senator and
representative of the dominant party,
and ten for distribution by each Demo-
crat in Congress, far the bill provides
that not more than two-thirds of the
places shall go to members of any one
party. There is still an element in Con-
gress left which does not believe that
,t'his is the way to do public
ness. -
Representative Gille‘tt, Republican of
Massachusetts, is one of these men,
and he said yesterday: “They have got
to have a. quorum here to get the Sen-
ate census biill through the House, and
as I do not believe a quorum can be
kept in this body. the measure will
have to go over. W'e do nor. purpose to
let such a bill pass until we have to,
and shall exhaust every resource before
ccnsentirg to such a thing.” ’
