Gen. Greere said 'hat there was no j complaint during 'he vcyag" of the scarcity of supplies, but during the | first few days out there was some dls | satisfaction with the cook! -<t. This was soon improved, and no criticism I was heerd afterwards. The details of the ocean trip, and the battle of Manila were related in a njinner calling the closest attention from the eommlslsoners, but covering the same ground as his report to tha war department. He spoke of the insurgents, who lay between his forces and the Spanish iitrep. It was, the witness said. Im possible to give an estimate of their number, but. he thought It about 10- 000. They were well supplied with Mauser and Remington rifles, many of which were captured from the Spanish and others had been purchased abroad. FIRED THREE SHOTS. Mr. R. R.

During the recess, they have sought to perfect the United States' position In relation to alternative or contingent attitude or propositions of the Spaniards this afternoon.

It was its presentation at Monday’s joint session which caused the Span iards to ask for, or demand, a recess from Monday till Friday. Whatever was new or stronger will possibly de velop from the American side as hav ing resulted* from secret conferences with General Merritt since Monday's joint session.
