.i the Infantry being almost worn
oat, and on account of roe scarcity of
for so many people.
-aiirmountlng these dlfflcultles, the
forces arrived at. Palma Soriano, and
a tbe 18th I marched to Aserraderos,
where I arrived on the 19th at 7:30 a.
, having been summoned there to
lonfer with the admlial of the Ameri
can navy, Bampson. 10 oeciae on m
best plan of attacking Santiago de
Cuba. This conference took place on
board the flagship New Tork. I must
bo declare that my object In moving
Br forces on Santiago de Cuba and
meeting the admiral of the United
States navy has been to obey the or
Itrt I received from tbe council of gov
niment to obey and respect the orders
and Instructions of the commanders of
tbe American army, on their com
mencing operations In the territory
under my command. .
"On the 20th the commander of the
brigade of Ramon.de las Teguas, De
sietrio Castillo, ,landd In Aserraderos
from Sagua, brought over by an Amer
ican man-of-war to receive my orders.
A short time after I. was advised that
Major General William K. snaiier.
commander of the Fifth army corps of
the United States army, had landed.to
confer with me on the attack by land
of Santiago de Cuba.'
"After a long conference and after the
American general accepted the plan I
1.14 hufnrs him for thft landing: of his
troops and to carry out with success
the advance on Santiago he returned to
the ship. The following day the gen
eral of division, Augustin Cebreco,
marched toward the west of Cuba
with the forces of his division, with the
object of preventing the enemy from
reinforcing Its garrisons of the coast
In that part, and at 8 p. m. a force of
530 men belonging to the division of
Bayamo, and commanded by Brigadier
General Demetrlo Catillo, was shipped
on board an American transport to go
to the reinforcement of the brigade of
Ramon to protect the landing of the
American army and advance on San
tiago by the east. These forces landed
in Slgua, and they advanced at once
on Dalquerl, with their commander,
Colonel Carlos Goniales, and with BOO
men of the brigade of Ramon, under
Brigadier General Catillo. The Span
lards. In a great hurry, abandoned
Dalquerl, which Catillo occupied as the
American navy began to bombard It,
but firing was suspended as soon as
our flag was hoisted.
"The Americans landed their first
regiments at Daiquiri and advanced on
Flrmeia and Slboney, with the Cuban
forces always In the vanguard, they
bejngthe first to occupy said village.
In Siboney the landing of American
troops was continued, while the Cuban
forces under Colonel Carlos Oorialez,
advancing on Santiago, sustained a se
vere encounter with the enemy In Las
Qua&lmag, suffering some losses, but
Inflicting greater on the Spaniards.
"In my conference with Admiral
Sampson and Major General Shatter
we decided that I should embark with
3,000 men at Aserraderos and land east
of Santiago. With this object I sent
for the forces at Aguacate (near Pal
ma), and on the 26th, at 7 a. m., we
began to embark, which operation was
finished In the evening. These forces.
forming three distinct columns, were
respectively under the command of
Major ' General Capote, Generals of
Divisions Cebreco and Lora and Brig
adier General Sanche Hecheverrla,
the entire force being under the lm
mediate command of Major General
Jesus Rabl.
"I was on board the Alamo with my
Staff and some officers Invited by Gen
eral Ludlow,- who had superintended
the embarkation. Brigadier General
Banches, with a force of 800 men, who
embarked first In the steamer Leona,
landed at t o'clock d. m. In Siboney.
There were already camped the other
Cuban forces which had arrived be
fore, aa well aa many thousands of the
American army.
"Perfect fraternity reigned among
the Cuban and American soldiers, wp
vied with each other In good feelyl
On aocount of the scarcity of foodTn
the territory In which we were, from
the first the .Americans supplied us
"with the necessary rations for the sub
sistence of our forces.
"On the 28th General Shatter and my
elf bad completed tbe plan of an at'
tack, and I received from hint the order
to march on the morrow with my
force toward Santiago, which he him
elf would do that same day, some
regiments an- cannon bavins already
advanced. . Xn the extreme vanguard,
as right of the fortified Spank oat
Soets, was Colonel Carton Goasales,
eommanding division of Bayamo, and
part Of the brigade of Ramon da las
Taguas. '-,.
On the 50th I encamped with my
force at El Balado, nine miles from Si
boney and four and one-half miles
from Santiago, where)" General Shatter
established his headquarters. At ' I
'clock In the afternoon I received or
ders to place myself at Marlanajo, be
tween Caney and Ban Juan, to protect
against any attack from the enemy the
batteries which were going to fir on
both points, should the enemy come
from Santiago. ' ,
At the commencement . of the at
tack on Santiago there were 15,000
men In the American army. There
were 4,000 Cubans under my Immediate
orders around the city. At K.S0 In the
morning of the first of July I began
tbe march toward Marlanajo, and at 7
o'clock I had already occupied the po
sitions allotted to me,
"At 7 o'clock the American batteries
Bred on the fortifications of the hill of
San Juan., the Spaniards answering
with their artillery. nd shortly after

except a few who had escaped to San
tiago de Cuba. At 8, after repeated as
saults In which the Cuban forces under
Major Duany took. part, the Americans
occupied El Caney. 1
"The garrison of the village perished
mostly In the assaults, and those who
escaped died on the Herd, among them
Oeneral Vera del Rev, who was al
ready fatally wounded. The enemy at
tempted to make a sortie from Santi
ago, and was repulsed. This day Gen
eral Linares, commanding the garrison,
was wounded In the trenches of San
tiago, and turned his command over to
General Toral.
"The Americans advanced to the su
burbs of the city by the road leading
from Caney, the "vanquished being the
Cuban forces under Colonel Gonsales.
.Our losses the first day of Jaly were
about 100, all our forces being under
the enemy's fire. - ,
"General Shatter ordered me to oc
cupy the right flank of his army on the
advance on Santiago, and I made a
night march, camping at 10 o'clock the
same night, after ordering some forces
almost on to Santiago.
"At dawn of the 2d I continued to
advance by the right flank toward the
north side of the city. General Cabreco
going with his division In the vanguard,
and at the extreme of the same General
Sanches Hecheverrla with his forces.
When General Francisco Sanches ad
vanced by the railway line on Santiago
on the morning of the td. he met four
guerillas who fired on our forces, which
returned the fire and killed them. Col
onel Ferrero. advancing by the right,
met and defeated a guerilla band on
the hill of Qulntero. occupying the posi
tion which we held, as also the height
of La Garldad.
THirlna- the whole day of the 2d heavy
flr was exchanged with the enemy In
Santiago, who from the fortifications
fired with rifles and guns at our po
sltlons. We had ten casualties; This

to aad west of Santiago, but the Cuban
forces on' the coast compelled them
to surrender to Colonel Jose canaei

them to the Amerclna navy.
Then follows a detailed report of the
doings of "our forces" up to the sur
render of Santiago, and the statement
concludes:
The American government has de
cided to occupy the city of Santiago at

General Miles has not given me orders
to co-operate in any further operations

- Washington, Aug;. 21 A document
entirely unique In tbe annals of war-
far was cabled last night to the war
department by General Shatter. It Is
In the form of a congratulatory far'
well address issued to the soldiers of
the American army by Pedro Lopes
De Castillo, a private Spanish soldier.
on behalf of 11,000 Spanish soldiers. No
similar document perhaps was ever be
tore Issued to a victorious army by a
vanquished enemy. The president was
moat impressed by the address, and
after reading It carefully authorised Its
publication. Following is the text of
the address, whlcb Is addressed to Gen
oral Shatter: '
' "Sir: The Spanish soldiers who cap!
tulated In this place en the 14th of July
last, recognizing your high and Just po
sltlon, pray that through you all the
courageous and noble soldiers under
your command may receive our good
wishes and farewell which we send
them on embarking for our beloved
Spain. For this favor, which we have
no doubt you will grant, you will gain
the everlasting gratitude and consider
ation of 11,000 Spanish soldiers who are
your most humble servants."
Also the following letter addressed to
the soldiers of the American army: .
"We would not be fulfilling our duty
as wull born men, in whose breasts
thnj-e Uve gratitude and courtesy,
should we embark for our beloved
Spain without sending to you our most
cordial and sincere good wishes and
farewell. We fought you with ardor,
wish all our sUength, endeavoring to
gpln the victory, but with'out the
slightest rancor or hate towards the
American nation. We have been van
quished by you (so our generals and
chiefs Judged In signing the capitula
tion), but our surrender and the bloody
battles preceding It have left in our
souls no place for resentment agalnHt
the men who fought us nobly and val
iantly. You fought and acted In com
pliance with the same call of duty an
we, for w all but represent the power
of our respective states.
"You fought us as men, fare to face,
and with great courage, as . before
stated, a quality which we had not
met with during the three years we
have carried on this war against a
people without religion, without morals,
without conscience and of doubtful
origin, who could not confront the
enemy, but hidden. Bhot their noble
victims from ambus and then Im
mediately fled. This was the kind of
warfare we had to sustain In this un
fortunate land. You have complied ex
actly with all the laws and usuages of
war as recognized by the armies of the
most civilized nations of the world;
have given honorable burial to the
dead of the vanquished:! have cured
their wounded with great humanity:
have respected and ..cared for your
prisoners and their comfort, and, lastly,
to us. whose condUlon web terrible,
you have given freely of food, of your
stock of medicines and you have
honored us with dlHtlnctlon and cour
tesy, for after the fighting the two
armies mingled with the utmost har
mony. "With this high sentiment of ap
preciation from us all, these remains
but to express our farewell, and with
the greatest sincerity we wish you all
happiness and health in this land which
will no longer belong to our donr Bpaln.
but will be yours who have conquered
It by force and watered It with your
blood, as your conscience called for,
under the demand of civilization and
humanity. But he descendants of the
Congo and,of Guinea, mingled with the
blood of unscrupulous Spaniards and
of traders ana adventurers, are not
able to exercise or enjoy their liberty,
for they will find It a burden to comply
with the laws which govern civilized
communities."

McLean would not be represented oy
Chairman Dan McConvUle. Lewis O.
Bernard or any other of his former
lieutenants who are in the Democratic
state convention, and the reason tor
blm not taking part was said to be due
to tbe report that John R. McLean is
to succeed General R. A. Alger aa sec
retary of war- In McKlnley's cabinet.
This caused mora stlramong the dele

sprung for years, al Ohio conventions.
Although Mcljensf was prominently
before the last Democratic convention
for the presidential nomination, and
would have been elected senator, in
place of Hanna If the Democrats had
carried the legislature last Novemoer,
and although his paper, the Cincinnati
Enquirer, was considered a leading ad
vocat of Bryan and free stiver, the
story shout McLean- probably becoming
tbe successor of Alger was believed by
many of the delegates. They cited the
case of Hayes appointing Keys,
southern Democrat, aa his postmaster
general, and later of Cleveland making
Oresham his secretary of state, and
said that McKlnley had appointed Lee,
Wheeler and other Democrats to lead
ing places and that greater surprises
In politics than this had happened. It
was conceded If McLean should be
come McKlnley's secretary of war, and
the Cincinnati Enquirer an adminis

paper have been the most potential

Wtille some, delegates are busy de
