Rear-Admiral Sohley Comes Back
E to Report.
COMMISSION’S WORK DONE
-_—___—_
hicmber of the Evacuation Commission
’ Aboard. He Predicts a Great Future for
Porto lRico. {People Are. Law-abiding
and Pleased lVitlI American Control.
New York, Nov. 12.—The United
States cruiser Newark, in command of
Commander Goodrich, and flyingtthe
flag of Rear Admiral Schley, arrived
yesterday from San Juan, Porto Rico,
and anchored off Tompkinsville‘, S. I.
She was greeted on her arrival by a
salute from the battleship Texas, in
honor of the Rear Admiral aboard.
‘The Newark sailed from San Juan
on Sunday, November 6.
On board with Rear Admiral schley
were his staff, composed of Flag Lieu—
tenant James H. Sears, Flag Secretary
B. W. Wells, Jr., and Ensign E. Mc-
Cauley, aide, and Hon. Charles W.‘
Russell of the department of justice,
legal adviser to the Porto Rican evacu—
ation commission, who also accompan-
ied the rear admiral when he went to
Porto_Rico.
The rear admiral had with him the
report of the commission, consisting of
three bulky parcels, with the documen-
tary evidence, and estimated to contain
at least sixty thousand words, which
he took with him to Washington last
evening.
He looked well, and said he felt well
though tired and in need of rest; the
tact that had to be exercised in the dis-
charge of the work of the commission
had been a great strain, and he wanted
to get away off in the country on a
farm, where he Could be away from all
care for a time.
He said that the meetings of the Com-
mission with the Spaniards had been
very harmonious; the instructions that
the American commissioners could not
deviate from were gracefully submitted
to by them, and before the meetings
ceased the Spaniards had a very much
,higher respect for Americans.
The report contains a. full statement
of the finances, the revenues, and ex-
penditures. the debts, the government
and other conditions of Porto Rico and
its inhabitants. -
Rear Admiral Schley finishes up the
work of the commission in conveying“
the report to the president. .
Of the other two members, Major
General John R. Brooke remains as
military governor of Porto Rico, and
Brigadier General W. W. Gordon re-
turned home some two weeks ago.
As Rear Admiral Schley was com-
mandant at Porto Rico, he did not
leave before the arrival of Commander
Snow, who reached San Juan by the
hospital steamer Solace, from New
York on Saturday, with several officers
stores and marines to establish a bar-
racks, and took immediate command
of the station. ,
The rear admiral said that Porto RI?
co had a great future and advantages
equal with Cuba.
The people, he continued, are agreea-
ble, docile and amenable to law, and
are just now carried away with admi-’
ration for the United States. - '
Flag Secretary B. W. Wells, Jr., said
that the Spaniards had almost all left
the island, being mostly in the military
and civil service. The small number'
left. he said, were those compelled to
stay by their interests. "l
The heat was great when the Newark
left San Juan last Sunday, but the
nights were cool. '
He said that the soldiers are now get-
ting acclimated, so that the number of
sick in the hospitals is growing rapidly
less. ,
The mezs are gradually being housed;
and will soon no longer have to live’
in tents and sleep on the ground. l
There arrived also, from the. Vv'est
Indies yesterday the transport Berlin,’
Captain W'ilson, which sailed from'
Santiago on November 6. She reached"
quarantine at 8 o’clock, and after be-!
ing inspected by the health officer, prO-'
coeded to an anchorage off Bedloe’s is-l
land. I
The Berlin brought 137 passengers.
consisting of discharged andconvalesy
cent soldiers. government employes and
Six contract female nurses.
Among these passengers were Cap-.
tain Justo Garcia. son of General Ca-Z
lixto Garcia; Major Melendez of the
Cuban army, and Senor Carulia, Cu-
ban diplomat on a mission to the Uni:
ted States.
The Berlin is in charge of Captain
Thomas Swohe, quartermaster. All on'
board the transport are well or conva-
lescent. The convalescents improved
steadily during the voyage to this port.
