Havana, Sept. 19. Humors that havo
been put Into circulation to the effect
that General Vudo, president of the
American evacuation commission, Is 111
with yullow fever may be denied abso
lutely. General Wade Is looking the
picture of health. Ho breakfasted yes
terday with his start at tho Louvre
restaurant.
Toduy the commission and their en
tire stuffs removed to the Trooha hotel
at Vedado, which has been put In ex
cellent sanitary condition. The gen
eral health aboard the) steamer UeBO
luto is good.
An oillelal meeting of the Spanish
commission of evacuation wus held
Saturday night to consider the form of
evacuation by the Spanish troops, and
with the object of acquainting the
American commission with the exact
number and positions of the Spanish
soldiers and the best method of em
barking them,
Yesterday afternoon there was sent
on board the Itusolule sealed docu
ments supposed to contain a statement
of the results of Saturday night's con
ference. It is understood that It Is pro
posed to start the evacuation from the
east to west, embarking the troops at
the ports or Gibara, NUevItas, Clenfue
gos and Havana.
Tho oillelal statement of the number
of Spanish soldiers lu the Island Is
said to place the aggregate at 100.000,
and It 1b understood that It Is proposed
that the men shall carry with them
their arms, ammunitions of war, mate
rial and equipments.
It Is estimated that the end of Febru
ary will have come before the evacua
tion of the island Is completed, as the
soldiers must embark In Spanish ves
sels. It Is suggested that this will be
an advantage to both countries, the
United States having nn opportunity to
acclimatize Its men during the winter
months, as It Is proposed that the
American government shall land troops
to occupy each post simultaneously
with Its evacuation, no' leaving any
port unguarded at any time.
At the Taeon theater Saturday night
there was produced a play based upon
the Dreyfus trial, In which Dreyfus was
portrayed throughout qb an Innocent
Victim of conspiracy In the French
army. From the start the sympathy
of the audience for Dreyfus was plain
ly manifested. Four Frenchmen, one
of whom Is supposed to have been an
officer of the French gunboat Fulton,
now lying in the harbor, occupied a
box In the first tier. All of them car
ried boatswain' whistles, and ut the
first Insinuation agnlust tho honesty of
the trial they began to blow the
whistles and to loudly hiss the players.
A scene of Indescribable tumult fol
lowed, the entire audience rising In
defense of Dreyfus.
The Frenchmen were forcibly eject
ed and the performance was continued
without further interruption. One of
the Frenchmen, he who was thought
to be an officer of the Fulton, refused
to give his name at the station house,
to which the party was taken after be
ing ejected from the theater, and was
locked up over night. General Blanco
has prohibited tho future performance
of the play n Havana.
A difference of opinion between Cu
bans nnd Spanish olllcers in a promU
pent cafe here yesterday resulted In
an exchange of abusive language and
a free light. The disturbance was
promptly quelled by the police, and the
ringleaders were arrested. The dis
order Is said to have" been provoked by
the Cubans,
AN ARCHBISHOP'S FEARS.
nopoH Philippine Will Nor Itrnuiln
SpnulNli or IU1001110 Independent.
Manila, Sept. 19. In nn Interview
here Archbishop Doznl, of the Philip
pine Islands, snld:
"I certnlnly hope the Islands will not
remain Spanish, because the rebels are
row so strong that such n course would
Inevitably cause appalling bloodshed.
The reconqucst of the natives Is Impos
sible until after years of most cruel
wnrfare."
He also .expressed the hope that the
Islands would not become absolutely
Independent, because It was certain
that dissensions would occur which
would icsult In Incessant strife and a
lapse Into barbarism and the natural
Indolence of the tropical race. The only
hope, the archbishop declared, was that
a strong western power would Inter
vene now. Delay was dangerous, be
cause the people are Intoxicated, vain
glorious and restless.
He said It wus undeniable that the
religious orders must go, because the
whole people had determined to abolish
them, now that they were able to ren
der their retention Impossible. He lays
the chief blame upon tho Dominicans,
Augustlnes and Frnnoiscans, the rich
est orders, and next upon the Benedic
tines and Capuchins, which are of less
Importance, The Jesuits. Archbishop
Dolzal says, are comparatively blame
less. He added that the rival orders
quarrel among themselves, intrigue, act
unworthily and slander their oppon
ents, thus increasing their general dis
favor. The provinciates, who are approxi
mately equivalent to archdeacons, are
mainly responsible. They are utterly
beyond the control of the archbishop,
who denies possessing much power.
The total number of Spanish priests
In the Philippines before the war was
about 1,000, but lately every departing
Eteamer has taken 50 to 100 of them
away, and now barely 500 remain.

EVACUATION OF PORTO RICO.
Our CommlMMloiioi'H Expect ItH Com
pletion Within Thrco WooIm.
Han Juan, Porto Hlco, Sept. 19. The
preparations for tho embarkation of
the Spanish troops are reported to be
completed, although the American com
missioners have not been officially ad
vised to that effect. Two ships of the
CompanlaTransatlantlca are expected
to arrive here on the 20th Inst. Five
vessels will be required to transport all
the troops with their luggage, and the
field artillery and equipment. Tho
Porto lilcan troops are to be landed
near Cadiz.
The United States commissioners
hnve agreed that such troops as deslro
to remain hero may do so, and practi
cally all the volunteers and some of the
regulars whoso families and Interests
are hero will remain. If the necessary
ships were here thu Island would be
evneuated and formally In our posses
sion within three days.
The Aineilcun cummmlssloners are
highly gratified with the spiilt shown
by the Spaniards. Thu unexpected has
happened. Where It was expected that
opposition and delay would be encoun
tered none has been found. In good
fulth the Spanish commissioners have
met tho Amui leans and arranged with
them the terms of evacuation. Our
commissioners expect to see the Ameri
can Hag hoisted and the Spanish Hug
hauled down forever within three
weeks.
