The first United States troops to march through the streets of Havana will be the Two Hun dred and Second New York volunteer regiment, which, with band playing and colors flying, will march tomorrow from the San Jose wharf, after landing there from the transport Minnewaska, through the heart of Havana to the Western railroad station. The Minne waska arrived yesterday. The Iroe of march will be through the Prado and Central park. These troops will be sent to Pinar del Rio province. General Davis, with the general head quarters staff, and one battalion will be aUPlnar del Hln city, the regimental headquarter, and the Second battalion will be at (Juanajay. The Third bat talion will be stationed at Mariel, and the Iliggins signal company will be quartered at the city of Pinar del Rio. General Davis and his staff landed yesterday and reported to General Wade. He had dinner with General Greene. All on board are well. The baggage, stores and mules were unload ed yesterday. It is intended that the first appear ance of United States troops in Ha vana shall have an impressive moral ffect upon the Cubans. Yesterday a umber of Spanish soldiers gathered In ,ie vicinity of San Jose wharf to get ,ook at their late adversaries. Friend- estures were made on both sides. Spaniards commented on the large f the American men. regiment will take 40 days' rar Camp sites have been selected, j work h"8 been done on them, e, men will have to make their camps. i Until further notice General Davis will exercise the functions of military governor of the province of Pinar del Rio, now completely evacuated. The oath of allegiance will be administered to the mayors of the towns and other civic officials. The existing authorities are to be continued, with modifications to suit future conditions. General Da vis has had a conference with General Wade, who acquainted him in part with the instructions the latter had received from Washington. American Authority Paramount. The attention of General Davis was called to the fact that he would find Cuban troops occupying Pinar del Rio city, and he was asked what he would do. The authorities of the United States must be recognized as paramount," he replied, "but I can see no reason why the Cuban troops may not remain or ganized as militia companies, though, naturally, when the necessity for their remaining in arms shall have passed. I suppose they will disband. I have no apprehension of trouble." General Davis said he did not intend to disarm the Cubans or to interfere with them unless that were necessary to preserve order. Captain Helllngs of the signal corps reported to the United States evacua tion commissioners that, under orders from the war department, he would take charge of telegraphs upon the Spanish retirement. The Spanish com missioners, on learning of his assign ment, issued orders that he be given every opportunity to familiarize Him self with the lines. The United States evacuation com missioners have turned over to Gener al Greene hundreds of applications for rtrli (y I police appointments. General Greene tJLIIV1 I await the arrival of Mr Mf!iilln.erh former New York chief of police, who is coming to consult regarding police reorganization, before he takes any of the applications into consideration. GIDEON W. MARSH, presidency of the bank, he found that there existed a deficiency in the bank of over $1,000,000. He had, no doubt, erred in covering this deficit, but the load was too much for the bank to car ry and finally resulted in its failure. Counsel said the defendant had never profited one dollar through the bank's losses, and that when Marsh fled, over seven years ago. he had not --with him one dollar of the bank's money. tfc gwayTa CONGRESS IN SESSION.

Paris, Dec. 10. The United States and the Spanish peace commissioners have concluded their work and finally settled the terms of the treaty of peace. The secretaries are now engaged In mailing duplicate copies of the docu ment, and it will be signed as soon as their work is completed. The document embodies the following articles, upon all of which a final agree ment has been reached: First The customary preface of treaties, in the nature of an expression of amity and of hope for perpetual peace. Second The relinquishment by Spain of her sovereignty over Cuba. Third The withdrawal of Spanish troops. Fourth Relinquishment by Spain of sovereignty over Porto Rico. Fifth Spain's cession of the Philip pines. Sixth The withdrawal of the Span ish troops there. Seventh Payment by the United States of $20,000,000 for the Philippines. Eighth The provision for the ".open door" commercial policy In the Philip pines. The Spaniards are exceedingly bitter over the' result, though observing' the forms of friendliness and courtesy to the end. Senor Montero Rios, whose strong and persistent struggle to save for his country every possible asset from the wreck of her colonial empire has commanded the respect and ad miration of his opponents, -went from the council chamber yesterday to his bed in a state of complete collapse as the result of the long strain ancUhls chagrin over the small fruits of his ef forts.

Military net-vice under a common flag nd - ; a righteous cause has strength ened the national spirit and served to ce ment more closely than ever the fraternal bonds between every section of the coun try. Review of the War. The president reviews the war with Spain at greit length. In referring to the controveisy with Spain which led up to the war he takes up the thread of the narrative where it terminated In his last annual message and concludes: It was honestly due to our friendly rela tions with Spain that she should be given a reasonable chance to realise her expec tations of reform, to which she had be come irrevocably committed. - It became evident, however, that the proposed plans were barren of good re sults. No tangible relief was afforded the reconcentrados, among whom the rate of mortality frightfully increased. The prof fered expedient of zones of cultivation proved illusory, hd It was apparent that nothing save the physical exhaustion of Spain or the Cubans and the practical ruin of the island of Cuba could resutt from the struggle then in progress. Resuming the war narrative, the president directs attention to the meas ures, including the voting without op position of an appropriation of $50,000, 000, taken to place the country on a war footing-, and adds: It is sufficient to say that the outbreak of war, when it did come, found our na tion not unprepared to meet the conflict. The wreck of the battleship Maine In Havana harbor is thus referred to: It is a striking evidence of the poise and sturdy good sense distinguishing our na tional character that this shocking blow, falling upon a generous people already deeply touched by preceding events In Cuba, did not move them to an Instant, desperate resolve to tolerate no longer the existence of a condition of danger and disorder at our doors that made possible such a deed by whomsoever wrought. Effort to Avert War. -Reference is made to "the apprehen sion of coming strife felt by the con tinental powers, voiced in the address to the president thgpugh their embas sadors and envoys 4md to the presi dent's reply thereto. Still animated, however, by the hope of a peaceful so lution of the difficulty and obeying the dictates of duty the president relaxed fto effort to bring about a speedy end ing of the Cuban struggle. Negotiations with the Madrid gov ernment proved futile so far as prac tical results were concerned, and then It was the president presented the ques tion to congress, saying: In the name of humanity, in the name of civilization, in behalf of endangered American interests which give us the right and duty to speak and to act, the war in Cuba must stop. The result of this statement of the case was the adoption of the memorable joint resolution by congress declaring the purpose of the United States to intervene between the Spaniards and Cubans. Following swiftly upon the enactment of the resolution came the severance of diplomatic relations be tween the two countries, the proclama tion of a blockade of Cuban ports, the call for volunteers and the formal dec laration of the existence of a state of war. All other governments were Im mediately notified of the existence of war and each proclaimed neutrality. The president says: It Is not among the least gratifying in cidents of the struggle that the obliga tions of neutrality were impartially dis charged by all, often under delicate and difficult circumstances. The president reviews at length the work of preparation for war, referring particularly to the enlistment of the volunteers, to the material increase of the navy in both men and ships, and to the precautionary measures taken for the protection of the seaboard coast and cities. The Popnlar Bond Issne. As to the authorized loan of $200,03), 000 which was taken entirely by small bidders, the president says: This was a most encouraging and sig nificant result, showing the vast resources of the nation and the determination of the people to uphold their country's honor. Taking up chronologically the events of the war, the president reviews them carefully. The first encounter was the shelling of Matanzas on April 27. This ad the enrh end ail Mine toward the achlevesiat of this toundlna- victory, for which neither eJeat nor nodm history affords a paral lel la the eomptotenem of the event and the BsarveJons disproportion of enowal ties, H would be lartJtons to aUMtW oat any for a special honor.

Resume of the Proceeding; Sennte nnd House. The final session of the Fifty-fifth congress .began at noon on Monday, the only business of the day being the read ing of the president's message. A reso lution was introduced in the house pro viding for the recognition of "the patri otic devotion and bounteous benevo lence of Miss Helen Gould to the sol diers of the army of the United States during the war with Spain." Representative Cousins of Iowa intro duced a bill entitled "A bill declaring the standard of value in the United States." It provides that the standard of value in the United States is hereby declared to be and is the standard gold dollar at 25 8-10 grains of standard gold 900 fine. The report of the commission charg ed with devising a system of govern ment for the Hawaiian Islands was pre sented to congress Tuesday. It provides for territorial government of Hawaii and admits to citizenship all persons except Chinese and Japanese. In the house the army and navy deficiency bill was presented. The house transacted no business, adjourning early as a trib ute to memories of deceased members. The senate gave some attention to the bill amending existing law relating to registry for foreign built ships wrecked in the United States arid pur chased by citizens of this country. Sen ator Vest introduced a resolution de claring that the United States coud not, under the constitution, acquire ter ritory with the idea of holding it per manently as a colony. Senator Hale, chairman of the naval affairs commit tee, introduced a bill to revive the grades of admiral and vice admiral. In the senate Wednesday, upon a mo tion to confirm the Hawaiian commis sion in' executive session, a long de bate upon the propriety of senators ac cepting appointments upon presi dential commissions occurred. Mr. John Hay was confirmed as secretary of state without opposition. Senator Hawley introduced a bill drawn by General Miles for the increase ofthe regular army to 100,000 men. It also provides for the revival of the ranks of general and lieutenant general. The house passed the anti-ticket scalping bill without amendment by a vote of 119 to 101. Chairman Hull of the committee on military affairs in troduced a bill for the reorganization of the army. It differs in many essen tial particulars from the Miles bill in troduced m the senate. While prorid ing for the same Increase in the per manent military establishment, it does not revive, the rank of general, but pro vides for one lieutenant general. In the senate Thursday the Nicara- to its signature. Referring lo the future policy of the administration respecting our con gests, the president says: I do nat discuss at this time th govern ment or th future of the new possessloa which will come to us as th result of the war with Spain. Such discussion will be appropriate after the treaty of peace shall be ratified. In the mean time, and until the congress has legislated otherwise. It will be my duty to continue the military governments which have existed since out occupation and give to the people security of life and property and encouragement under a Just and beneficent rule. As soon as we are In possession of Cub and have pacified the Island It will be nec essary to give aid and direction to Its peo ple to form a government for themselves.

I renew so much of my recommendation of December. 1897. as follows: "That when any of the United States notes are presented for redemption in gold and are redeemed tn gold such notes shall be kept and set apart and only paid out In "exchange for gold. This la an ob vious duty. If the holder of the United States note prefers the gold and gets It from the government, he should not re ceive back from the government a United Spates note without paying gold In ex cbAng for It. "The reason for this Is made all th more apparent when the government Is sues an Interest bearing debt to pro rid gold for the redemption of United States notes a noninterest bearing debt. Surely it snouic. not pay tnem out again except on demand and for gold. If they ar put out in any other way they may return again, to be followed by another bond Issue to redeem another Interest bearing debt to redeem noninterest bearing debt," The Importance of " adequate provision which will insure to our future a money standard related, as our money standard now Is. to that of our commercial rivals Is generally recognised. The president discusses comprehen sively our domestic affairs. The sales of the bond aided railways, he says, have been advantageous. Pen- ion payments last, year amounted to $144,651,879. Much progress was made by the agri cultural department, and sugar facto ries have doubled In number during the past two years. . s The alien contract labor law. he says. should be amended, and the eight boor question Is suggested as deserving the attention of congress.
