It is Thought Garcia. is Ready to Disband His Army. Santiago de Cuba, July 23.--Genernl Wood of the Rough Riders has been appointed military governor of Santi— ago de Cuba, succeeding General Mc— Kibbin, who returns to his old duty, and who is now on the sick list. Squads of ‘natives were sent yester- day to clean the streets and bury the dogs and horses whose remains have been lying in the streets for days and weeks. Other steps to improve the sanitary condition of the city are be- ing taken. ~ The French cruiser Rigault de Gen- ouilly has arrived here with supplies for the relief of the French citizens of Santiago. A large exodus of Cubans is expected during the next few days, as they are returning to the cultivation of the country, that work being the chief source of the wealth of the island. The greater part of Garcia’s army will leave here at daybreak to—day. Notwithstanding General Garcia‘s bitter complaint to General Shafter that he had been ignored and that the ‘ restoration of the Spanisn civil author- ity in the city of Santiago was most offensive to him, and that in conse- quence of all this he had been forced to tender his resignation as general in the Cuban army, General Shafter is going on with his preparations for a contest with the Spanish forces of Hol— special s11. oi TRIMMED HATS.

To-day General Garcia issued a dc. 1cree authorizing all Cubans who haVe been driven from their plantations and country homes by the Spaniards, and who have taken refuge for safety in the cities and towns, to returnto the country and go to work on their farms and plantations, assuring them of pro— tection by his forces. He has added like permission to those in his ranks who were recruited from the farm lands or were employed in the fields at the outbreak of the war. Altogether it must be confessed that General Garcia’s attitude is inexplica— ble. His permission to the men in his ranks to go back :to work on the farms is construed to mean an effort to dis- band his 'forces. But this may not be altogether justified. It is certain that a great many of them will contin- ue to fight. The Danish steamer Bratton, the first vessel, outside of the government and Red Cross ships, to enter this port with provisions, arrived here at nine o’clock yesterday morning, having on board A. P. Azovodo, the owner of her cargo, who went to General Shafter’s head- quarters in order to inquire about the customs duties. He was told he must pay full duty on foreign produce under a foreign flag, at the rates in force un- der the Spanish regime. This brings the duty on the Bratten’s flour to $4 plus ten per cent. per barrel, and the duty on the other goods in proportion. It is not known whether a. bounty will be allowed on American bottoms. Gen- eral Shatter, for the present, limiting himself to the statement that the da- ties will be assessed on the same basis as the Spanish tariff. 'TO PAY SHAFTER’S TROOPS. Over 81,000,000 to Be Sent to Santiago for Distribution Among Them. Washington,4D. 0., July 23.--The war department has decided to pay the troops at Santiago, notwithstanding the recommendation of General Shafter that no money be given to them for the present. Over a million dollars will be sent to Santiago at once, where it will be dis- tributed by a corps of assistant pay- mast-ers. The money will be taken by a. ship that will sail from New York on Monday. The soldiers are to be paid in full to date. General Flagler, chief of the bureau of ordnance of the war department, said yesterday that he has ordered that samples of the captured rifles given up by the Spaniards at Santiago be sent to this country at once. They will be taken to the arm-cry at Springfield, where they will be examined and a re- port made upon the general condition of the arms. The Next Manila Transports. S'an'Francis'co, July 23.-~The trans- port Rio de Janeiro will receive her complement of 1,000 troops to-day and will be in readiness to sail for Manila. Another 1,000 will depart on the stea- mer St. Paul on next Tuesday or Wed— nesday. The big ship's Arizona and Scandia can each take 1,000 men.. If they are sent to Manila with troops the number of. men sent will amount to-nineteen thousand. General Merritt’s friends say that he will be satisfied with that number, in spite of the fact that three thousand troops belonging to the Phil- Ippine expeditionary force will be left behind. Colonel Barber of the New York vol- unteers is in poor health and will go to the country to recuperate. Philippines 'Not for Us. London, July 23.—-A. despatch to the Daily News from Berlin says that the ‘powers, with the exception of Great Britain, have arrived at an agreement, though only in negative terms, regard- lng the future of the Philippines. They concur that they will not allow the island to be annexed by the Uuited States, and will not consent to an An- glo—American protectorate, which is believed to be cherished in influential quarters in Washington.

But reac- tion after a phenomenal movement of grain causes relative loss, which many mistake for decrease in the volume of trade. So much grain has been requir- ed and shipped during the past twelve months that a decrease was inevitable, and Granger and Pacific roads show a loss in earnings, even compared with 1892, though not much yet compared with last year. Owing to this the ag- gregate of railroad earnings during the first half of .1th he been 3.2 per cent. larger than last year, and 6. 2 per cent. smaller than in 1892. Yet the volume of business has not decreased. Payments through clearing houses for the past 'week show increase over last year of 4.5 per cent. and 10.9 per cent. over 1892. 1.151.111; the week was exceed- ingly busy, but for the month thus far payments have been 9.1 per cent. great- er than last year, and 9.0 per cent. lar- ger than in 1892. In spite of the great decline in prices, the business done is in volume greater than ever, and in quantities greater than in value. In the stagnant midsummer season, with business larger than ever before, the great manufacturers nearly all share the gain. Once before, in 1895, with an extraordinary small movement prior to July, the shipments of boots and shoes was larger than this year, but in no other year have shipments in three weeks of July been as large. There is an increased demand for woolen goods, although in some lines slow anddisappointing, but the num- ber of establishments at work increases though the mills are not yet assured of satisfactory prices. Only 5,233,200 lbs. wool were sold last week, and in three weeks only 12,879,900 at the three chief markets, of which 8,629,700 Were domes- tic, agginst 34,124,700 last year, and 23,- 347,550 in the same weeks of 1892, 18,- 509,000 being domestic. The iron manufacture seems to be at the verge of another revolution, since Bessemer big is held by curtailmgnt of production in the Shenango and Maho- ning valleys, at $10.25 at Pittsburg, and yet some steel works have made enor- mous sales of billets, 100,000 tons to the great wire association at prices un- known, 20,000 tons to various parties at Chicago at $15.75, .and 20,000 tons at Pittsburg at $14.75. The demand for structural forms keeps all the works busy, and includes for the week 3,500 tons at Chicago in three contracts, and 7,800 at Pittsburg in four others, while the plate mills are everywhere-crowded, sheets and bars are both in betterde- mand than heretofore, and the prolong- ed weakness in cast pipe, which usually, requires nearly 700,000 tons of pig in a ' year, may presently be cured. Heavy sales of Lake copper have fixed-the price at 11 1-2cents, and the output for the last half year has been 120,487 tons American, against 40, 880 tons foreign, although three years ago the- foreign. output considerably exceeded half the- American. Tin at 15. 55 cents, lead at 3.92 1—2 ce‘nts, are both a shade weaker. With abatement of foreign needs and prospect of excellent crops in many for- eign countries, wheat has declined dur- ing the week three cents in price, not; withstanding the exports from Atlantic ports amounting to 1,937,092 bushels, flour included, against year, and from Pacific ports 577,755 bushels, against 89,523 last year. Total exports fer three weeks haVe been 7,- 399,259 bushels, flour included, against 5,194,488 last year. Corn still goes abroad in astonishing quantity, all the circumstances considered, exports hav- ing been in three weeks 5,077,847 bush- els, against 6,,635 395 last year. The price has not changed in spite of the decline in wheat. Foreign trade has not corresponded with the startling exhibit for the past year, imports falling but 27 per cent. behind last year’s for July, while ex- ports have increased only 24 per cent. But in the long run it will not pay to ignore the course of general business, which is steadily advancing. Failures in two weeks of July have been 83,- 405,833 in amount, against $2,815,842 last. year, $8,214,281 in 1896, $6, 599, 751 in 1895, and $6, 317,696 in 1894. Manufacturing have been $1, 635, 365, against $1,189, 010 last year, and 84,187133 in 1896, and trading have been $1,537,768, against 81,- 605,233 last year, and $3,399,847 in ,1896. Failures for the week have been 207 in the United States, against 227 last year, and 17 in Canada against 28 last year. THE-CHICAGO AFLOAT... Repairs Made on the Carlson-Which Has Been Considerahly Strengthened. Brooklyn, July 23.--Another cruiser will be added to the navy within’a few days. She is the Chicago which has undergone extensive alterations and r3- pairs at the navy yard for the past. few months. In the new Chicago, which was floated from dry dock No.2 yes-H terday morning, the old Chicago could not be recognized. Her old engines were removed and replaced by modern engines of high power, two manganese bronze propellers have been put in place of the old screw, there is a. com- plete electric plant and boiler tube sys- tem on the vessel and it is expected that to day the new rapid fire guns will be in place. Probably no cruiser in the United States navy. has undergone such ex- tensive repairs. The Chicago will be manned by a crew picked frOm the re- ceiving ship Vermont, and will in all probability be placed in commission this week. Cervera IIIay Stay \Vith Us. Annapolis, July 23.--There is a well defined rumor, which cannot, however, be traced to an authoritative source, to the effect that Admiral Cervera had expressed a determination not to re- turn to his native country at the close, of hostilities between the United States and Spain. It is said that the admiral, has de-, cided to take up his residence in Bos- ton, whither he will repair with his son, Lieutenant Cervera, who is also a prisoner here, as soon as peacejs de- clared. , Liliuokalani Going Home. San Francisco, July 23.--Ex-Queen Lilioukalani, attended by her physi— cian, Dr. English of Washington, one Mr. and Mrs. Heleiuke, has arrived from Washington en route to Honolulu. The party will leave on the Gaelic next Tuesday for the Hawaiian islands. V’AGUPINALDO.S msusoaomnlon. _ Also Said to Be Much Dissension Among . the Insurgents. Hong Kong, July 23. --Letters receiv- ed here from Cavite, dated July 19, dif- fer from the advices received direct from Manila. The former say the insurgents have been repulsed near Malate, and that they are now making less progress. There is also said to be much dissen- sion among them, owing to alleged bri- bery upon the part of priests. Aguinaldo, it is further said, refuses to be subordinated to the United States. He does not seem to realize his posi- tion, as evidenced by his appointment of a. cabinet, his declaration of inde- pendence and the formal hoisting of the. insurgent flag. About fifteen hundred Americans, it alert) appears from the letters from Ca- vite, have been landed half way be- tween Manila and Cavite, and the Uni- ted States cruiser Boston has gone to support them in case of an emergen- cy. ' TROOPS LEAVE CHICKAMAUGA Three Regiments 011' for Newport News to Take. Transports. Chickamauga National Park, July 23. --Three regiments, the Fourth Ohio, Third Illinois and Fourth Pennsylva- nia, composing the Second brigade, First division, First-corps, command- ed by Brigadier General Hains, left Camp Thomas yesterday for Newport News. The Third Illinois broke camp at five o’clock and marched to Ross- ville, and the other two mgiments fol- lowed an hour apart. .st Rossville the three regiments were loaded on Cin. cinnati Southern trains. At Newport News the transports are expected to be in waiting and it is probable that the command will get to Porto Rico in a. very short time. Time for Bids Extended. Washington, July 23.--In order to al- low shipbuilders more time for the con- sideration of the subject, the navy de- partment has extended the time for the submission of proposals for the con- struction'of sixteen torpedo boat de~ stroyers and twelve torpedo, boats, from August ninth next, the date origi- nally set, until August 16, a week 1a- ter. The extension of time was made for the special benefit of prospective bid- ders on the Pacific coast and the indi— 1,516,997 last ' cations are that there will be consid- erable. competition among the ship‘ yards on the Pacific coast for this work. , Another Job by Sampson. Washington, July 23.--This dispatch has just been received by the navy department. “The expedition to Nipe has been en- tirely successful, although the mines haVe not been entirely removed. The Spanish cruiser Jorge Juan, defending the place, was destroyed without loss to our side. “The Annapolis andvthe Wasp after- ward proceeded to assist in the landing of the Commanding general of the ar- myand trops on arrival at Porto Rico.

Washington, D. 0., July 23.-~A’ con- solidated statement prepared by Ma- jor John A. Johnston, assistant adju- tant general, shows that of the 277, 530 authorized by Congress to be enlisted in the regular and volunteer armies, 254,479 up to this time have been mus- tered into the service. Of the 23,021 yet required to complete the authorized quota of the army, 13,303 are regulars, 8,000 ar volunters under the second call, 862 are immunes and 851 are engineers. The Columbia River Wheat Crop. Portland, Ore., July 23.--The conserv- ative figures put the season’s surplus of the wheat crop in the Columbia riv- er basin and the Willahiette valley at 1,050,000 tons. These are based on last year's surplus on the known increased acreage this year over last, and the first rate condition of crops now under harvest. It is estimated that at least 25,000,000 tons of grain will seek .ex- port through Portland this year. Express Train Held Up. Fort-Worth, Tex., July 23.--The south bound Santa Fe passenger train, due here at 10.20 Thursday night, was held up near Saginaw, eight miles north, by six masked men. Engineer Joe Williams was probably fatally wounded. The fireman could not be found and was thought to be also wounded taining any booty. Millionaires 111” lm mime Ranks, Galveston, July 23.-—The Galveston regiment of immunes has left here for New Orleans, where it will_embark for Cuba.
