THE SCRANTON TRIBUNE- SATURDAY, JULY 30. 1898. 55 GENERAL SHAFTER'S EXPLANATION WAIt DEPARTMENT DID NOT INTERFERE WITH HIM. Ho Alono Is Besponisble for the Santiago Campaign Tho Depart ment Simply Ratified tho Terms He Made with General Toral. Santlhfeft Je" Cubn, July 28 (delayed In transmission). Mnjor General Shatter Is desirous It should bo known lliat the United States war department hns In no way lnterferrod with the conduct of the campaign In Cubn. Tho seneral says he yas never hampered bv the war daiartfqent'.'atul thut If the cam paign In this vicinity had fa"ed the fault would have been nil his own. The department's only participation In the operations was In ratifying the terms of tho Spanish forces' surrender. General Shatter has rcauested that these statements be published In view of the fact that tho war department has been criticised for Interference during the campaign. Major General Shatter says he has not made certain statements attribut ed to him In nnjntorvlew on the sub ject of the attitude assumed by Gen eral Garcia, and he explains that the alleged trouble between himself and Senor Ros, the civil governor of San tiago, Is a very small mntter, Indeed. Senor Ros Is nulled at General Shatter not allowing him complete control of the civil administration of the entire section of the province of Santiago de Cuba, which has been surrendered to the American forces. CLAIMS OF ROS. Scnor Ros considers himself the su preme civil authority, basing his claims on the state paper Issued by Presi dent McKlnley on July 13 and provid ing In general terms for the govern ment of tho province of Santiago do Cuba, which contains tho following clause: "The Judges and the other officials connected with the administration of Justice may. If they accept the suprem acy of the T'nlted States, continue to administer tho ordinary law of the land, as between man and man. under the supervision of the American com mander In chief." Senor Hos, It Is understood, resents General Shatter's so-called Interfer ence with his duties. A little cloud arose over the fact that Scnor Ros dis charged three employes and substitut ed for them three of his own friends. The discharged employes complained to General Shatter, who ordered their reinstatement. Since then Senor Hos has been slightly ruffled, but he Is con tinuing to discharge his duties as Gen eral Shatter's subordinate. The trouble was really Insignificant, but Senor Hos and his three friends, being Cubans, the matter was mag nified in their circles. Senor Ros sim ply obeyed General Shatter's orders without protest, though he may have murmured behind his back. FOR RELIEF COMMISSION. The Yacht "May and "Ice Plants" Are Offered the Government.

New York, July 20. II, G. Dun & Co., In their Weekly Review of Tiade, will say tomorrow: Hlg business In January Is expected, but hie business In July mount" more. It Is the mouth of all others when trade' Is naturally light. Rut inori business Is being done this, wir than In any provlous July of which there nre records. The payments through clearing houses have been 5.S per cent, larger than In 1892, the year of great est prosperity heretofore, und for the month thus far C.5 per cent, larger than last year, and 8.1 per cent, larger than In 1S92. It may be said with reason that the promise of general prosperity this year is unusually bright, wheat receipts for the month thus far have been 7,309,333 bushels against 10,107,000 last year. Tho exnorts for the month have been 8,833,192 bushels -against 7,312,4; lust year. Com had a little advance In prices. Exports for the month thus far have been singularly well maintained, amounting to C,7G7,963 bushels, against 8,099,016 last year. Tho prospect for cotton Is generally very .good The sale of wool shows a remarkable in crease In large transactions for which no prices are named. The official report for Iron production for the tlrst half of 1S98 shows an In crease of over half a million tons com pared with any previous half year, nnd what Is far more Important, the con sumption In manufactures appears for the half year to have exceeded the out put. Estimating the exports for June, only live months having been officially reported, the consumption ha3 been S, 94S.345 tons ogalnst 5,909,70'. produced, averaging 991,391 tons monthly against 934,9,10 tons produced, tt is well to re member that in June, when production declined because of stoppage for re pairs, the decrease In unsold stocks was 4,216 tons weekly. The now orders received arc surprisingly large for the season, covering 5,000 tons at New York for rails, and 10,000 pending for Russia and 5,000 for Japan, with 10,000 taken at Chicago, and a noteworthy demand for structural forms at Phila delphia, and increasing for bars, with enough to keen, the plate mills busy for a long time, n large demand for bars at Chicago, Including one .or more for 5,000 Implement stuff nnd an ex cellent structural demand nnd the heaviest demand for plates ever known at Pittsburg. Sales of Bessemer Iron have been heavy, reaching 25,000 tons at Pittsburg, without change in prices. Failures for the week have been 225 In the United States against 236 last year. DR. PEPPER DEAD.
