Toral Wanted to Birrender
With Proviso That Hla Army
Be Allowed to Retire Un*
der Flying Flaga.
An Associated Press dispatch from
Jnrugun, via Kingston, says: Tba sur
render of Bantiaga was formally offer
ed by the Spanish commander, Oeneral
Toral, Sunday morning, but the con
ditions attached caused a prompt re
fusal of the offer by Oeneral Shat
ter. The negotiations, however, re
sulted in the extension of the armis
tice until noon and whito flags of truce
■till floated ovor the opposing armieB.
General Toral's proposal contem
plated the immediate surrender of the
city, but he insisted that his army be
permitted to march away under arms
and with flying colors, and doolared
that he would fight to tho last ditch
unless the conditions wore aocopted.
General Shatter replied that nothing
but unconditional surrender wonld be
wofisidftred by him, bnt ho consented
to cable the Spanish offer to Washing
ton, in tho meantime extending the
armistice.
It was shortly before noon Snnday
When a little group of Spanish ofllcors,
wader a flag cf truce, came out from
Wader the yellow wall of tho besieged
<dty and slowly made their way toward
the American line. A detail was sent
to meet them and they were esoorted
to comfortable quarters, while the let
ter from General Toral was carrlod to
General Shatter's tent, two miles
from the front. The letter was
eouchod in tho icily courteous terms
characteristic of such communications
and was as brief as possihlo. It bore
tho signature of Ooneral Torn!, who
commands at Santiago since General
ADMIRAL CERVERA AMONG THEM. THEY WILL REINFORCE OUR ARMY.

Maehlas, Wilmington and Xreydea,
A special from Fortsmouth, N. H.,
•ays: “The Spanish prisoners who
wero bronght to this port in the
auxiliary cruiser St. Louis, from San
tiago, nnmbering 692 of the men who
oompossd part of the orews of Admiral
Cervera's squadron, ara in compara
tive comfort in the barracks erected
for thsm on Seavey's island. Oervera
and nine of his officers are among the
prisoner?. Around them is a guard of
125 marines."
Monday afternoon they were taken
to Greeley's lending, the landing so
called from the fact that it was here
Lieutenant Greely and the survivors
of tho ill-fated Lady Franklin bay ex
pedition set foot on American soil for
tho first time after they had been
brought back from the frozen north by
Captain, now Commodore, Schley, in
1884. The prisoners were marched to
the highest part of the island, where
each man deposited under the eyes of
the marine guard whatevor few beloug-
iugs he possessed.
It was a pathetic sight from begin
ning to end, and such as wonld bring
tears to many eyes. Tho poor, wretch
ed creatures struggled up the hillside
clad for the most part in rags, some of
them boing covered only with the frag
ments of a table doth or a blanket,
while others had an portions of what
was once a uniform.
When the men landed some of them
were so weak that they could not
stand and laid on tha ground until
stretchers wero brought and were car
ried by their comrades to the main
road, where thoy were placed on the
grass. Many had wounds that were
still unhealed and thoir heads and
nrms showed the effects of the terrible
bnttle in which thoy fought. The crew
of the Cristobal Colon was landed in a
body. They were hotter clad and
evidently better fed than the other
men.
Thirty members of the Colon’s crew
were, however, severely wouuded and
had to be carried on stretohors.
The unloading of the crowd was
witnessed by thousands, hut not a
jeer was heard nor an act performed
which might have given offense to tho
prisoners.
The men were formod in line and

The letter concludod with tho bold
statement that surrender under nny
other terms was an impossibility and
Would not be considered.
Oenernl Hhnfter immediately cabled
, the note to Washington and sont the
general a refusal of his proposal, hut
■aid he would communicnto with his
government and extended the formal
armistice until Sunday at noon.
Promptly at tho honr designated the
white flags wore taken down along the
American, lino, save one, in front of
General Lawton's brigade, which, by
“me oversight, was left fluttering its
lonely meBsago for an honr. It was
first discovered by General Lawton
himself, who, on riding up to his line,
ordered it tsken down at onco. Then,
an if by mngic, the whito flags waving
over Santiago dropped from their hal
yards, and the unofficial truce was at
an end.
Hours passed without n Bliot, th«
Americans boing lontli to shoot upon
an already defeated foe, while tho
fipaniards wero undoubtedly waiting
lortho first shot from our side. Shortly
after 4 p. m. the long silence wan broken
by a shell from one of the eastern bat
teries of Santiago,when from Capron’s
iron-throated monsters belched back
the answer which soon silenced the
Spanish gnns. A rapid mnskotry fire
followed upon the Spaniards who ap
peared before their works, which ran
them to immediate cover.

French liner Lb Bourgogne, arrived
at Philadelphia Monday.
One of the officers said: "It is hard
for n Britisher to understand how 50
per cent of the crew wero saved and
only 10 por cent of tho passengers.
The fact thnt only one woman out of

According to dispatches General
Nelson A. Miles, commanding the
United States army, arrived off San
tiago bay shortly after noon Monday.
Upon the arrival of ths auxiliary
cruiser Yale, on which General Miles
was . passenger, communication was
opened with Admiral Sampson, and
the two oommandors were soon in con
ference.
Daring the early afternoon General
Miles landed at I’laya del Este and
communicated with General Shafter,
commanding American forces before
Santiago, by telephone.
The nature and result of the two
consultations were not disolosed at
the war department,but Goneral Miles
donbtless was placed in possession of
ell salient points of tbe situation from
the view point of both the navy and
army.
It is not to be understood that Gen
eral Miles is to supersede General
Shafter in command of the United
StntOH forces before Santiago. General
Shafter is operating there nnder writ
ten instructions from the secretary of
the army, approved by the president,
nnd as long as he is able physically to
direct the troops he will retain his
command.
Kelfffif At Washington.
The news of the arrivnl of General
Milos at the front was received with
feelings of relief by wnr department
officials and everybody else in Wash
ington. Whether Miles takes active
and personal charge of the operations
about Santiago or not, It is certain that
everybody in authority breathes easier
now t^>t he iB there.
There is a difference of opinion as to
whether Miles iB to take charge over
Shatter's head, but the best opinion at
the war department is that he is to be
commauder-in-ohief in fact as well as
in name.
BITTER FEELING ENGENDERED
BetWMn (tampion and Schley Oyer Credit
For Destroying Cervera's Fleet.
It is currently reported at Santiago
that considerable bitter feeling exiBte
between Admiral Sampson and Com
modore Schley over who should have
credit for the destruction of Admiral
Cervera’s fleet.
It iB said that the admiral forbnde
Commodore Schley to telegraph to
Washington his version of the great
naval victory on Sunday morning,
when the Spanish fleet, under Admiral
Cervera, was destroyed while attempt
ing to escape from Snntingo harbor.
The trouble between Sampson and
Schley is nente, and tho floet is buz
zing with gossip about it.
Admiral Sampson’s friends are deep
ly chagrined that his flagship should
have happened to bo absent when Cer-
vora dashed out of the harbor.
Everyone on tho Now York laughs
at Commodore's Sohley's assertion
thnt tho Brooklyn was Btrnck thirty
times by Spanish Hhot. They declare
thnt the oommodore should be repri
manded.
TENDERED RESIGNATION.

The Madrid correspondent of The
London Times telegraphing Monday
says:
"Senor Sngastn went to the palace
today nnd tendered his resignation
nnd that of the cnbinot. It is snid
that ho advised tho queen regent to
appoint n new cabinet, largely cousist-
iug of the military element which
would not necessarily menn tho adop
tion of n warlike policy, bnt probably
the reverse.
"It iB generally expected that the
resignation will bo accepted, but the
result may possibly be merely a par
tial reconstruction of the cabinet. Tha
ministers are now in council uud
Senor Sngastn has doubtless commu
nicated to them nn nceount of hi*
audience with the queen regent.”
BASIS OF PEACE,
Which Would He Satisfactory to Spain,
Widely Dlnenaaed.
A cable dispatch from Madrid says:
The possibility of pence with the
United States is being widely discussed
in the newspapers and by the public.
The Conservative party declares Spain
is prepared to accept pence provided
it implies only the loss of Cuba. But,
they nssert, Spain would prefer war
indefinitely if the United States should
claim Porto Rico, the Philippine
Islands or an immense indemnity
which would be impossible for Spaiu
to pay.

Spanish Honor Exemplified.
I see that the Spaniards are vaunting
their honor and chivalry and calling
Americans swine. Let me tell you
something about Bpanlsh honor. Pre
mier Sagasta recently gave & reception
to the British Minister. During the
evening the Minister discovered that
his watch had been stolen, and he came
to the reluctant conclusion that one of
the grandees present was the thief. He
told Sagasta of his loss. Sagasta ask
ed for silence and explained the situa
tion. He said that in order to save the
culprit's honor the lights would be put
out and the whole company would pass
by the Premier’s desk lu the dark, and
the culprit would redeem himself by
placing the watch on the table. In
darkness the company passed by the
table, \yhen the lights wore turned
on again not only was the watch not
there, but a valuable silver Inkstand
belonging to Sagasta was missing.—

THEY WANT TO TELL
These Grateful Women Who Hava
Been Helped by Mrs. Plnkham.
Women who have suffered severely
and teen relieved of their ills by Mrs.
Plnkham's advice and medicine are
constantly urging publication of their
statements for the benefit of other wo
men. Here are two such letters:
Mrs. Lizzie Beveiilv, 258 Merrlmac
St., Lowell, Mass., writes:
“ It affords me great pleasure to tell
>11 suffering women of the benefit I have
received from taking Lydia E. Pink-
ham’s Vegetable Compound. I can hard
ly find words to express my gratitude for
what she has done forme. My trouble
was ulceration of tho womb. I was un
der the doctor's enre. Upon examina
tion he found fifteen very large ulcers,
but he failed to do me good. I took sc v-
cralbottlcsof Lydia E. Pinkhnm's Vege
table Compound, also used the Sanative
Wash, and am cured. Mrs. Pinkhnm's
medicine snved my life, and I would
recommend It to all suffering women.”
Mrs. Amos Trombleat, Ellenburgh
Ctr., N. Y„ writes:
" I took cold at the time my baby
was born, causing me to have milk
legs, and was sick in bed for eight
weeks. Doctors did me no good. I
surely thought I would die. I was al
so troubled with falling of the womb.
I could not cat, had faint spells as
often ns ten times a day. One day a
lady came to see me and told me of the
benefit she had derived from taking
Lydia E. PinkVtm's medicine, and ad
vised me to try it. I did so, and had
taken only half a bottle before I was
able to sit in a chair. After taking
three bottles I could do my own work.
I am now in perfect health.”
