have driven the government toward
peace is a fear that the Americans may
Ket a footing in Porto Iiico, thus estab
lishing a etronrer claim to include that
island in the demands for territory.
Stocks are rising on the Madrid ex
change every day, strengthening the
conviction that peace is near."
ISIghts of lnli Phial Suspended.
The Official Oazette at Madrid pub
lishes a royal decree, temporarily sus
pending throughout tho Spanish penin
sula the rights of individuals as guar
anteed bv the constitution. '1 ho d
adds that the government wiil render
an account to Parliament of the use it
may make of this measure. The pub
lication of tho decree is generally ac
cepted a being convincing proof that
Spain is now ready to sue for peace and
that negotiations to that effect are ac
tually in progress. The government
wishes t have full power to suppress
any evidences of discontent or rebel
lion wherever they appear. The Car
lists are furious and aro tsure to attempt
to create trouble.

not to give tho full story of the Irene

Santiago, de Cuba (By Cable). A
fact which is impressed i.mr i.n ror
evry day upon the men and officers is
the increasing strained relations be
tween the Americans and (leneral (lar
cia's Cuban soldiers. Indeed tho situ
ation has now reached a point wLere
there is practically no communicatiou
between the armies and their relations
border on those of hostility rather than
the relations which one would suppose
should exist between all. When Gen.
Shafter announced his decision not t."
let the Cuban Junta enter the city of
Santiago, deep mutterings were heard
among General Garcia's men. It was
evident that tho Cubans were greatly
disappointed at the step taken by the
American commander, for they had
confidently couuted upon haviug San
tiago turned over to them to loot aud
plunder, as they had in succession
sacked Faiquiri, Siboney and Fl Caney.
Consequent;- their disappointment was
keen when they ascertained that they
were not to be permitted to take ios
Bession of the city upou General To
rai's surrender.
The Cuban soldiers now fully realio
that there is a rising sentiment against
them iu the army. They hear nothing
but words of scorn from our men as
they pass lugging their bacon and
hard tack into the woods. Fven our
officers no longer conceal their disgust
for their allies, aud it is understood
that the warm friendship displayed to
ward them at first has now turned into
jj contempt, for tho Cubans have neither
fought nor worked.
Another Incident.
The Hong Kong correspondent of the
London Daily Mail says: "United
States Consul Wildmau informs me that
as the German cruiser, Irene, was
passing Mariyele, oil' Manila recently,
he L'nited States gunboat Hugh Mc
Cullough was sent after her to ask her
to stop. As the Irene refused to obey
a she'll was sent across her bow and a
email boat went to discover what she
was doing. The Gorman admiral pro
tested and insisted that ( lei man ships
had a right to cuter the harbor without
being searched, a claim which Admiral
I?wy dcli!:ed 4.or.f':;i:;'. It is re
ported that Admiral von Driedricbs,
who is in command of the Germau
squadron at Manila, interviewed Capt.
Chichester, of the Pritish cruiser 1m
mortalite as to what ho would do if the
Germans interfered with tho bombard
ment of Manila. ('apt. Chichester re
plied that only Admiral Dewey aud
himself knew that."
Total Strength, ot the Army.
Tho total enlisted strength of the
regular army to date is about 41, ()).J
men, being about Ist, Out) short of its
legal complement. The volunteer army
consists of l S'.OOO men, and is only 17,

etrength, under the two calls issued by
the President. The total strength of
tho army, regular and volunteer, is
L'7,000 as now organized.
Santiago u I'est Hole.
General Shafter has had a thorough
examination made of the sanitary con
dition of Santiago. The work was
done b- Dr. Goodfollow, of the gen
eral's stall, and by a civilian physician.
They find that although there are now
but six case of yellow fover in the city,
iu addition to two suspects, tho town i.
ripe for an epidemic.
Wants the Immune Hurried Forward
Geueral Shafter has asked tho War
Department to hurry forward the regi
ments of immunes for service at San

there may be a minimum of danger of
further infection of our troops from the
fever which prevails at Santiago.
