The Terms of Surrender Are Finally
Consummated. All Forces and War

General Toralat Last Yields Every
Point and Sign: the Agreement. The
Nation’s Thanks.
Washington, July 18.--After many
vexatious delays and much haggling
over terms and technicalities on the
part of the Spanish General Torall, the
caplintulxation has been consummated.
Tihe tennis of surrender were signed on
Saturday, and yesterday, at 9 a. m.,
the Spanish flag was h‘auled down and
the Stars and Stripes set waving over
the .city of Santiago and its surround-
ing fortresses. 7
The victory is indeed a glorious one
and none the less so because it is blood-
less. The Spanish general surrenders
an army of 12,000 men against whom
a shot has not been fired. In addition
to this there are from ~twe1Ve to fifteen
thousand troops in outlying garrisons
which are also included in the surren-
der. .The following official correspond-
ence has been received and fully ex-
plains the great and significant event:
At nine o’clock Saturday evening the
following message, announcing deli-
nitely the surrender of Santiago. was
made public at the White House. It
was received by Adjutant General Cor-
bin:
Camp near Santiago, July 16.
The surrender has been definitely set-
tled, and .t‘he city will be turned over
to-morrow morning, and the troom will
bermarc-hed out as prisoners of war.
The Spanish colors will be hauled
down at nine olclock and the American
flag hoisted. SHAFTER,
Major General.
'A dispatch received from General
Shatter earlier in the day gave the fol-
lowing conditions:

ington: - ;
The conditions of capitulation include

territory. The United States agrees,
with as little delay as possible to trans—

Santiago de Cuba, July 18.--.r
General Shafter has just sent this dis-
patch to Washington:
Adjutant General, U.‘ S. A., Washing-
ton:
I have the honor to announce that.
the American flag has been this in-
stant hoisted over the house of the civ-
ll government in the city of Santiago.
An immense concourse of people pres-
ent. A squadron of cavalry and a
regiment of infantry presenting arms
and band playing national air. Light
Lattery fired salute of 21 guns. Per-
fect order os being maintained by mu-
nicipal government. Distress is very
great, but little sickness in town.
Scarcely any yellow fever. A small
gunboat and about 200 seamen left by
Cervera, have surrendered to me. Oh.
structions arebeing removed from the
mouth of harbor. Upon coming into
the city I discovered a perfect enltan-
glement of defences.-
Fighting as the Spaniards did the
first day, it would have cost 5,000 lives
to'have taken it.
Battell-ons of Spanish trops have
been depositing arms since daylight in
ermory, over which have guard.
General Toral formally surrendered the
plaza and all stores at nine 3.. m. .
W. R. SHAFTER, Major General.
Amid impressive ceremonies the
Spanish troops laid down their arms
between the lines of the Spanish and
American forces at nine o’clock this
morning.
General Shafter and the American di-
vision and brigade commanders and
their staffs were escorted by a. rtroop
of cavalry and General Toral and his
staff by 100 picked men. Trumpeters
on both sides saluted with flourishes.
Gen. S'h-after returned to Gen. Toral
the defeated leader’s sword after it had
been handed to the American comman-
der. Our troops, lined up at the tren-
ches, were eye witnesses of the cere-
mony. Gen. Shafter and his escort, ac-
companied by General Toral, rode
:hroug-h the city, taking formal posses-
51011.
The city had been sacked before .our
arrival by the Spaniards.
At the Palace elaborate ceremonies
:ook place. Exactly at noon the Amer-
can flag was raised over the palace
ind was saluted with 21 guns by Capt.
Zapron’s battery. At the same time
111 the band-s in our line played “The
Star Spangled Banner,” after' which
President McKinley's congratulatory
:elegram was read to each regiment;
As' the brilliant folds of the Stars
Ind stripes unfurled in a gentle breeze
{gainst a fleckless sky, the cavalry
Dand broke into the strains of “The
Star Spangled Banner," making the
American pulse leap and the American
neart thrill with joy. At the same- in-~
Itant the sound of the distant booming
If Captain Capron’s battery firing a sa—
ute of 21 guns drifted in. .
T‘Vhen the music ceased from all di-
'ections around our line came floating
Icross the plaza the strains of the regi-
nental bands and the hoarse cheers of
)ur troops. The infantry came to or-
ler arms a moment later after the flag
was up and the had played “Rally
Round the Flag, Boys.” Gen. McKib-
Ion called for three cheers for General
Shatter which were given with great
enthusiasm the band playing “The
Stars and Stripes FCorever.”
The ceremony over Gen. Shatter and .
Itaff returned to the American lines,
caving the city in the possess-ion of the
nunicipal authorities subject to the
:on’orol of Gen. McKibbin.
Since 4 o’clock a. stream of refugees
mas been pouring into the city. The
20w not Santiago presents a dismal
light. Most of the houses have been
sacked and the stores looted.
Among the arrivals to-day Were the
Ierman, Japanese andPorbuguese con—
:uls and their families. General Pando
vas never here, but 3,500 men from
vianzanilllo arrived on July 3. The con-
act mines in the harbor were removed

re mortars. '
Four Spanish'merchant steamers, the
Ilor'tera, the Reina de los Angeles, the

Iunboat Alvarado are now in the har-
)or.

iardment of Santiago wrecked fifty-

Before Santiago, July 18.--T-he pre-
liminary basis for the capitulation of
the Spanish forces in eastern Cuba was
agreed to and signed under a pictur-
esque cedar tree, half way between the
lines, shortly after midnight. Our coon-
,missioners were invited to enter the
city by those representing General To-
ral, but the invitation was declined.
At the very outset a. hitch occur-red,
owing to a. misunderstanding of what
,waS' said at a personal interview be-
tween General Shafter and General To-
ral at noon. At that time our interpre-
ter, translating the language of Gen-
eral Toral, had given Generals Shatter,
Mules and Wheeler distinctly to under-
stand that Captain General Blanco had
consented that he commissioners should
have plenary powers to negotiate the
terms of surrender, such terms as they
agreed unto to be binding upon both
parties. Something was said about a.
notification to the Madrid government,
'but General Shafter insisted that the
capitulation had been actually agreed
to, and that no further consent of the
Madrid government was required.
1 The commissioners met at 2 o’clock
in the afternoon. Those in behalf of
General rfloral, General Escario, Lieu-
.tenant Colonel Fortan and Albert Ma-
son, the British vice consul, combatted
at once the idea that. the capitulation
had in fact actually taken place. The
consent of Madrid, they insisted, was
Still necessary, but Would be forthcom-
_ing, as Captain General Blanco had
' authorized it, and the (home government
would do the same.
I General Toral, who was present, said
he had never been overruled by the
captain general.
I This was unsatisfactory to our com-
‘missione-rs, \VlhO clu-ng «tenaciously to W
the understanding General Shatter had
received earlier in the day.
I With the question of Whether or not
the Spanish forces had actually surren-
dered still open, the commissioners
.' proceeded to the consideration of the
preliminaries.
Captain Miley had drawn up thirteen
articles of a. general nature and these
were submitted to General Toral per-
sonally. He made a strong appeal that
the word “capitulation” be used in-
stead cf the harsher term “surrender,”
and that his army be allowed to march
out, the officers with their side arms
and the men with their small arms. He
said the arms could afterward be sent
to Spain, either on the same ships with
the troops or on some other ships. _
General To-rall remarked that he ex-
pected our commissioners. as represen-
tatives of a brave and chivallrous peo~
pl‘e, would not seek to humiliate his
army or make it appear that he was
vanquished. As brave men, his sol-
diens desired :to go home with honor.
They had simply yielded to superior
force and they would prefer dying to
going home without their honor.
Our commissioners said this proposi-
tion lay beyond the terms laid down
by our government and they could only
reccommend the matter to Washing,-
ton.
At 4 o’clock General Toral returned
to the city to consult with Gen. Llnares,
who had been erroneously reported to
be dead.
General Tom] and his commissioners
returned at 6.30, saying they desired a.
still further change in the phraseology
of the articles, and suggested a post-
ponement of the negotiations until the
morning. This General Wheeler firmly
declined. Thereupon a recess was tak-
en until 9.30._ At that time the antilcles
were again gOne over. Various cham-
ges of verbiage, which tended only to
soften the sound of the terms without
affecting their sense, were proposed by
the Spaniards, and our commissioners
accepted practically all of them.
At midnight Wheeler suggested that
the good faith of the Spanish commis-
sioners be tested. All the articles were
reread and each in turn was asked if
they were satisfactory. When they re-
plied in the affirmative General Whee—
ler asked them to affix their signatures.
This they appeared reluctant to do, but
they could not refuse. When all had
signed, the commissioners separated to
meet again at 9.30 in the morning.
The present municipal authorities are
to continue in control of the city until
the Spanish troops are embarked.
The Spanish troops from, other points
are to be embarked at the nearest
ports. , '
Refugees are to return to their homes,
but, not until the sanction of Madrid
ls received, and the same applies to the
removal of the obstructions at the en-
trance to the harbor.
Pending this, Miss Clara Barton and
the Red Cross agents. with supplies,
are to be allowed to enter the city over
the line of the J uragua. railrod.
The water main which was cut is .to
be repaired at once.
No Cubans are to be all'OWed to un-
ter the city.
All the artillery and the batteries at
the harbor entrance are to be left in-
tact, and we are to obtain possession
of the gunboat in the harbor.
Shafter’s headquarters are to be
moved to the high ground north of the
city, where the whole of ouryarmy will
be encamped after Santiago"‘is evacu-
ated, pending the possibility of its em-
barkation for Porto Rico.
The troops which were landed at Si-
boney, but which did not get to the
front, are to be sent back on board the
transports immediately.
Which American troops will remain
here as a. garrison, and their number,
has not yet been decided. There is
some talk of garnlsoning' Santiago with
several regiments from the southern
states, which are understood to be at
sea. at present.
The condition of the city of Santiago
insult! to be dreadful. with um: and
stench everywhere. There is much sick-
ness among the'Spanish soldiers, \ g .7
