Manila. Aug. 14.—1 t Is the day after the battle. Manila Is fully occupied by the American iroeps. The Stars and Stripe.' have been floating over the city since 5:30 yesterday evening when Lieut. Brumby, Dewey’s flag lieu tenant, representing the navy, and Lieut. Porey, of the Second Oregon, representing the army, raised the flag over tbe palsce. At the moment the glorious folds fluttered in the breeze as they went.to the top of the flagstaff, the band of the Second Oregon, march ing at the head of the advancing col umns of the victorious troops, saw it from the street below. The band halt ed and swung quickly from "Hot Time in the Old Town Tonight” into ’’The Star Spangled Bann r.” A Mighty Cheer As soon as the soldiers heard the sudden change and saw the flag the col umns uncovered and burst into wild cheering.

D C. Aug. 17. Now that the surrender Is officially , reported it can be stated that Manila Is being held by virtue of military oc ' cupation aud surrender, and net by i virtue of the protocol. The difference: ' ia aaid to amount tu little in prariical remits, per the official# agree the occu pation is the result of combined mill 'tar? and naval operations. Ac.rding 'to Dewey's tliapalch the surrender oc - cui red at sp. m Saturday. Tha 'peace protocol was signed nt 4:23 p. -m., Fr.day. It is said the difference In time between Manila and Washing ton i* such that the surrender, reckon-! cd on Washingion time, would be about j j twelve hours ahead of the time at Ma-1 nila. or about 5 o’clock Saturday morning. A* to 1 ime. i In point of actual time, therefore, the signing of the pea c protocol preceded j ! the actual surrender of Manila a few hems. Hut It Is a well established rule of military law. tjjc world over, that a' peace armistice or cessation cf hostlli-, I ties does not become binding upon the commanding officers until they receive I actual notice of it. This rule \s ex i pressed in the United States Rcrrula ! tions governing armies in the fit\l Is las folio’S' | "Article 139. An armistice is binding | upon belligerents from the day of the I agreed commencement, but officers of [the army are responsible from the day loci" when they receive the official no tice of ir« existence." Under the nilo, Dewrv and Merritt world be bound by Iho armistice only from the time the notice reached therti | ai Manila. This could not have oc-1 ' turre t on the Saturdgjr prior to the bembtrrdment, ae the cable 'yas not ,working and no dispatch boat could 'have gotten through with it before ■Monday or Tuesday. In short, it Is |agreed In all official quarters that the forcitle taking of Manila bay was en , tirdy regular and the city and bay are now held on the basis of a military 1 and enforced taking, rather than on a | basis of mutual arrangement between the two countries. May Be Material. This may became materia! when the question arises as to the future or the Philippines, for it is likelylo proceed from the American standpoint that Ma nila was taken by force of arms and is so occupied. There has been no time to consider what will be, done with the 7,000 Spanish prisoners taken, but the fact that an amicable understanding has been reached with Spain as to the occupation of Manila will probably op erate to lighten tbo condition of these prisoners.

The bom bardment. which began at 9.30 o'clock in the forenoon, wa* continued for two l hour*. Then the American# stormed the trenches, sweeping all before them. - The F'rst California volunteers storiii !ed the outer trenches and drove the Spaniard* Into their second line of de- i ‘fenre. The Americans swept on, driv ing all the Spaniard# Into the Inner fortifltation#. where the Hpaniab com mander, seeing that further reililanre was useless, hoisted tbe whits flag aud ‘surrendered. As to the Losses. I The losses of the Americans or Span-1 Ixh are not yet known. The Spaniards; I intrenches probably numbered 3,000 j men. The American attacking force numbered 10,000 and Ihe Americans! wore better armed, better trained and In better condition. The foreign fleets watched the bom- j (bardment with acute interest. The Am-; (eriean ivnrships engaged were the; Olympia, Petrel, Ilaleigh, McCulloch,: Boston, Monterey, Charleston and Bal timore. Augustin’s Hscape. The Germans had a launch waiting' for Augustin, which carried him to the Kaiserin Augusta. The cruiser put to i sea at 10 o'clock Saturday night and came over at a speed of seventeen; knots. No one here understands thej German position. It is rr ported that Dewey dispatched j cruisers late on Saturday night for Llcilo and Cebu, either to accept the 1 surrender of these places or to bom bard them. The ilaleigh was to start on Sunday for Labuan there to pick up three Spanish steamers that have been running between that port aud Lloilo. The Concord and Boston were dis patched to Port Royal to sink five gun hoars that have been In hiding. After wards the warshipß will raise the Am erican flag at the capital of each of the islands. It i® expected that it will take the warships three weeks to accom plish these missions. Ca'ledon Wlldman.

According to the orders received by the Florida Central and Peninsular railroad Tuesday morning the Second ' Georgia regiment of volunteer# will leave tt# present ramp at Tampa Fri day for Huntsville, Ala., where it will be tamped until the government dis bands Its army of volunteers soldiery. The Florida Central and Peninaular has been awarded the contract for its transportation, and will carry the regi ment over its lines to Everett City, turning it over there to the Southern railway. The regiment will move In fhree or four long sections of a special train, and will he In Huntsville, it is presumed, in time to go ;11 camp before dark on Saturday afternoon. It is believed that this order ia final, and that there will he no change in any repsect, Tho tnovA will, no doubt, be very agreeable to the soldiers, the new camp being located in a high alti tude with a bracing atmosphere. The health of the men will be Improved by the change of climate, and the new scenes will prove agreeable to men who have been k"pt nt Tampa for nearly three months. It will not bo long now before Flori da will be emptied of troops outside of the army corps of Gen. Lee at Jack sonville. On Monday the Plant system moved the Fifth cavalry from Tampa to Huntsville in eleven sections of a special. Yesterday the First Ohio cav‘ airy regiment was moving to Hunts ville, and during the remainder of this week and early next week the other regiments at. Lakeland are expected to be sent either North or West. The bus iness wil probably be about evenly divided between the Plant system and Ihe Florida Central and Peninsular. The Third regiment, It is understood, will be mustered out of service within a short, time now, the government not being desirous of going to the expense of equipping and moving the troops now in process of organization and drill in the state camps. , The expensive wife usually has • [pensive husband.
