The attempt of the Spanish commis sioners to induce the Americans to ac cept their construction oi ine mcauiug of the protocol, where it touches on the Philippines, has been aflat failure. The President himself was a party to the preparation of the protocol. It was he, who suspecting a purpose on the Spanish side to becloud the issue and leave open a door for future escape from the consequences of the war, bad swept aside as so much chaff the mes sage of the Spanish Duke Almodevar de Rio, and reducing the demands of the United States to wnai is precisis. had declared-that the Spanish mio-ht accent that as an exact statement of the demands of the United States. Having made the document, the President believes him self to be the person best competent to construe its meaning, and the Ameri can commissioners are consequently acting in conformity with his views. Inasmuch as the Spanish are mak ing most strenuons efforts to assert the Philippines, all based upon the use of the word "disposition," instead of "possession, in that part of the protocol relating to the future of the Philippines, it may Ko etai ed that the American commis sioners have been obliged to call at tention to the fact that M. Cambon, who acted for the Spanish government in arranging the protocol, declared pos itively that the change, which was made at his instance, amounted to nothing, ificance in Enelish, or as affecting the object aimed at, but was made merely because it sounded better in Spanish and would not be so humiliating to the Spaniards. Conse quently the American commissioners could not for an instant think of al lowing the sincerity of the then French ambassador to be drawn into question the camp very healthful and the site desirable. "As to what was done therefor the soldiers, he said, 1 think I deserved more credit for what I did at Montauk than for what 1 did atLaGuasima. I think more was done than should have been done for the soldiers."

He was satisfied that most of the complaints against the camp were unfounded Many of the complaints were made by men and women who had never seen men in camp. Appreciating the situation the soldiers had "played it on" the visi tors, making complaints that were withoiit foundation in order to get del icacies.

Pnr location of Camps at Chickamauga, Fernandina, and Miami, Fla. By Telegraph to the Morning Star. Washington, D. C. Nov. 17. The adjutant general of the army has fur nished the war investigating commis sion a statement showing the author ity upon which the camps occupied during the war with Spain were se lected. It shows that General Miles located the camps at Chickamauga, Ga ; Fernandina and Miami, Florida, and Camp Alger, Virginia; that Gen-aar-teA that at Jacksonville, and General Merriam that at Camp Merritt, and that the other camps ex cept that at Tampa, were selected by boards of officers. The report says that a permanent camp was never con templated at Tampa, but that troops were sent there, preparatory for em barkation, on recommendation of Gen. Miles.

Perhaps the most misleading name on thejoiap is that of Tierra del Fuego, the f Land of Fire. ' The name would imply that it was a land of volcanoes' in constant activity. The fact js, however, that it contains no volcanoes and is a country of perpetual wet and cold. It got its name from the fact that it was sighted by Magellan at night in conse quence of a large fire having been ignit ed by the natives on shore. The same discoverer happened to have very fine , weather after he had rounded the Horn, and so gave the name " Pacific " to a part of the ocean which is exceptionally subject to storms. Again, Boothia Felix, a peninsula in arctic America, in which the magnetic pole is located, is anything but "hap py" or "pleasant," as its name would imply. It was named after Sir Felix Booth, who provided iunaa iur mo ex pedition which discovered it. In anoth er sense the name of America is wholly misleading, since it is derived from that of Amerigo Vespucci, who did not dis cover the new vvorid. by eMlful workmen on short notice. new uuurv ljuuev.
