OCCUPATION BB BBBB
Gen.” Miles Opposed to SendingPe
Troops Therein October.
SPAIN DIES VERY HARD-|
The President Adhering to His Decision.
Regular Regiments 'Demoralized by
Sickness. [The Situation ar- Havana.
Cubans Growing Restless. Suffering
for Lack of Food.
Washington, Sept. 21. -—-The president
adheres to his decision to send 50,000
or 60, 000 troops to eastern and western
Cuba. in October. Gen. Miles has been
making a. big fight against such a pre-
mature occupation of the island, and
he proposes to continue his efforts to
prevent the assignment of troops to
Cuba for several months.
Letters have been received from reg-
ular army officers who served in Cuba.’
reporting the condition of their com-
mands, and they agree that the soldiers
are in a. deplorable physical state. They 3
claim that it will take six or seven
months to recuperate troops, and that
this can be accomplished only' by send-
ing them to the military post's, instead:
of keeping them at southern camps. An
example of the danger of the southern
camps is afforded by the Fifth infan—
try, which was assigned to Cuba. after
a. long period in the South. The com-
mand is reduced in strength by along
sick list.
The regiments in this country which l
returned from Cuba. are practically
worthless by reason of the large num-
ber of furloughed soldiers armed with
surgeons’ certificates. Men have ob-.
tained furloughs and extensions and '
used every means of staying away.
This is particularly true of the regu-
lars, and the service is described as
well nigh demoralized.
Advices from Havana say that there
are ten Spanish men-of—war in port
and 61,000 Spanish troops, besides 40,000
volunteers there. The evacuation com-
mission has a great deal of work be-
fore it, and it is said that its- duties
cannot be completed before the end of
October.
There is very little yellow fever in
the city, but thereuis a great deal of
typhoid malaria, which is frequently
- fatal.
Havana is quiet, but the Cubans are
showing much restlessness
anxiety to have the evacuation liegin.
There is suffering and some starvation,
but the captain general will not per~
' _Imlt the relief stores on board the Co-
me! to be landed, unless 3360, 000 is paid
in duties. '
Meanwhile, the British consul gen-
eral says that infants are "dying for
lack of the milk and food on board the

’g ‘ ' 31qu When Crop. ' ' "’
Winnipeg, Sept. 21‘.- 14Mann-ger Thomp- ,
son of the Ogilvie Milling Company has:-
just- returned frOm inspecting the
wheat crop, and says;- .23....
“As a result of my. trip I am forced
to admit that the government estimate
of the crop will. be gxceeded by. over;
seven million bushels. I estimate the
crop of wheat for Manitoba this year
at 2,,000000, and allowing 6,000, 000 for
the NorthWest Territories, will give
us a. total wheat crop nearly double
that of last year and the greatest in
the history of the West.
“I am pleased to find that the snow
posed injury from wet weather has not
been anything approaching what has
been represented; in fact, 'gdama e from
that cause is light, and Manitoba this
year will ship more No. 1 hard, wheat
than the entire crop of last year."

GOING HOME FROM POR‘lO RICO. l
__—
Spanish Soldiers Embark at San Juan.
The Sick Go First.
San Juan, Porto Rico, Sept. 21.—The
embarkatio'n of the Spanish troops for
Spain begins to-day, when 200 sick
‘soldiers and 200 engineers will board
the steamship which is expected to ar-
l rive from Havana en route for Spain.
The palace officers also report that
two or three transports have sailed
from Spain for San Juan. There was
a great feeling of relief on both sides
at the receipt of this news.
The cyacuation of Lares, Aguadilia.
and San Sebastian occurred thismorn- .
. ing at nine o’clock, our troops taking
possession and raising the American
, flag, and the Spaniards retiring to Are-
' cibo.
On Wednesday morning the Spanish
will evacuate Viequez island, on the
southeast coast, and the garrison will
remainiemporarily at Humacao. .One
company of our.troops is already at
'Viequez island and another at Huma-
cao.
The commissioners have agreed that
it would be well to allow the soldiers
on both sides to fraternize, and have
also agreed that soldiers in pursuit of
bandits may enter the opposing lines.
This action wipes out the neutral zone,
which has been a safeguard against
the bad element, and is taken with a
view of conserving good government in
the island, in which both sides are in-
Iterested, and as the result of depreda-
tions which have occurred between Cl-
ales and Utuado.
The United States troops are now in
possession of all the island save that
.part northeast of a line from Arecibr‘i
through Aibonite and Cayey to Huma-
08.0.
These places would be evacuated im-
mediately but for the fact that there
' is no room for any more soldiers here.
Every available sleeping place is now
occupied.
Sickness continues among our troops
but it is not increasing .5, and there are
no malignant diseases.
General Brooke has ordered that ev-
ery tent in the island must have a
board floor.

Plants and Air.
Flowerless plants, in bedrooms. far ‘
from being hurtful, are beneficial, inas-
much as they exhale a certain amount
of ozone and vapour, which maintain
a healthy dampness in the air,,and be-
sides that are destructive of the mi-
crobes which promote consumptive
tendencies in human beings. It is only
flowers, and not plants which hear
them, that do the damage. Ferns are
innocuous; roses and sunflowers‘are
pernicious, while they are in bloom;
indeed, flowering plants, as well as
ripening fruit, should never be allowed
in a room where any one is sleeping.
For worms. which destroy house
plants, place a number of sulphur
matches in the flower-pots, with their ' "
heads downwards; it- is an excellent
remedy.
Fresh air is a great disinfecting
agent in nature, tending constantly to
dilute and remove all pernicious eman-
ations from whatever source, and in
proportion as we confine or restrain
it, do we foster and propagate disease.
