"Washington, Nov. 17. An Important point was developed hy the war Inves tigating commission yesterday through the examination of Major LaGarde, one of the surgeons In charge of the hospital at Slboney. It wus that of tho 1,300 or 1,400 wounded men treated In the hospital only 11 had died. This was less than 1 tier cent, and Dr. La Garde ventured the statement that no war In history showed so small a mor tality among wounded men. The testimony of Colonel J. W. Jacobs, who was In charge of the trans portation facilities at Santiago, Indi cated that the reason why camp equip page and cooking utensils had not been forwarded from the coast to the troops on the battle line In front of Santiago was to be found In an order Issued by General Shatter expressly forbidding It. The order provided that only rations and forage should be sent forward. Colonel Jacobs declared the quarter master's department was not respon sible for the condition of Inadequate camp supplies at the front, as the of ficers merely obeyed the orders, of tho commanding general. Captain 11. W. Ireland, who was as sociated with Dr. LaGarde as a sur geon and executive oirlcer in the Slb oney hospital, testified that he had gone to Cuba on the Saratoga, but had not been able to land for six days, why he did not know. The hospital at Slboney had been sulllclently well supplied for about 200 patients, except in the mat ter of cots, of which there were not to exceed 50. Patients In excess of this number were, compelled to He on their blankets on the ground for tho first week of tho hospital's history. About 1,200 wounded men came to be treated within three or four days after the Ini tiation of the hospital. There was a sufficiency of supplies except delicacies and conveniences. Speaking of the Concha, concerning which there has been considerable criticism, he said he had supervised the provisioning of that vessel, and he was sure that It had re ceived all the supplies necessary at least there had been no complaint be fore leaving. Dr. Edward L. Munson, who for a time was on duty at Tampa and In Cuba, being for a time on the Olivette and also adjutant to General Pope, chief surgeon of the Fifth corps, said he had understood that requisitions were promptly approved and that all the difficulty there was In getting medi cines and supplies was due to the lack of transportation. Each regiment had been expected to take the Buppltes that would be necessary. There were no orders to leave any of the medical sup plies except the ambulances at Tampa. He had understood that the medical supplies In Cuba were short. They were taken on the transports, but It was Impossible to get them landed. Dr. Munson said that the condition of the army before Santiago was la mentable, owing largely to the fact that the men were without tents. For the first two or three days, also, there were practically no supplies on shore. So far as he could determine the quar termaster's department had made no effort to assist the medical department, leaving It entirely to its own devices. MiUlons Given Away.

The meeting yester day of the Spanish-American peace commissions began at 2:16 p. m. and ended nt 3 p. m. The Spanish commis sioners presented a long document in answer to the American argument which was submitted last week. By mutual consent the memorandum of yesterday was handed to the Americans without being read, nnd the meeting adjourned to Saturday next. The Spanish communication will be trans lated and Its contents discussed by the United States commissioners at their usual dully session today. The Spaniards In the communication reatllrmed the position which they have assumed ngalnst the discussion here of Spain's Philippine sovereignty. They Insist that the words "shall determine the control, disposition and government of the Philippines" do not warrant any reference to Spain's withdrawal from the Philippines, except on her own terms, and, therefore, the Spaniards propose arbitration on the construction to be placed on the words "the control, disposition nnd government." In signifying their willingness to sub mit the Philippine article of the pro tocol to a third party for construction the Spanish commissioners urged that, br there is obviously a difference of opinion regarding the phrases "the con trol, disposition and government of the Philippines," possibly the result of a mtsundcrstunding, the Spaniards should no more be asked to surrender their view than the Americans to surrender theirs. The memorandum points out that a deadlock exists, which might be broken by arbitration on the contend lng views, to which the Spanish com missioners are quite ready to submit. The latter declare that they have no idea of suggesting arbitration as to the main issue, which touches the national honor of both sides, but they are will ing to accept exterior aid to clear the path of negotiation. It Is safe to say that the American commissioners will not consent to In yoke exterior aid to construe the terms of their own protocol. Another part of yesterday's Span ish memorandum flatly asserts, upon the authority of M. Carnbon's reports of the protocol negotiations between Washington and Madrid through him, that President McKinley at no time objected to Spain's reservation of her sovereignty In the Philippines. This allegation Is directly opposed to the American record on the same subject. Judge Day's note to M. Cambon, dated Aug. 10, and already made public, In formed him that Spain's note of Aug, 7, accepting the terms of peace laid down by the United States, was not explicit and proposed a protocol to re duce both parties to exactitude. The American commissioners now hold that the protocol Itself was born of Spain's attempt to reserve her Philippine sov ereignty, though tho Spanish mem orandum of yesterday squarely chal lenges the contention. The Spanish memorandum asks also why. If the United States objected to Spain's reservation of sovereignty, they did not plainly say so In the protocol and leave no room for argument. It asks why Judge Day's note of Aug. 10 did not clearly declare that the United States would not recognize such reser vation and that the protocol was neces sary to prevent a misunderstanding on that point. It also asks why did Judge Day's note practically ascribe the In explicit form of Spain's acceptance of the peace terms to telegraphic errors, while the exact terms of Spain's reser vation of sovereignty, as had In Wash ington before the piotocol, are now be lng quoted In the proceedings here.

DISAl'i'OINT.M'KNT IX MADRID. Hotter to Got ltlil ol'tliu 'Unirratoful Colonics." London, Nov. 17. The Madrid corre spondent of The Standard says: "There Is considerable disappointment in nign quarters at the failure of the Spanish peace commissioners to obtain any complete concessions, at least financial ones, from the United states, benor Montero Itlos, Senor Garnica and Scnor Abarzuza are reproached with conduct ing the negotiations too much like law yers and without sufficiently attending to the more conciliatory suggestions 01 their colleagues on the commission. "In the same strain it is argued that Senor Montero Itlos would undoubtedly earn popularity by declining to sign peace on such harsh conditions, and by patriotically throwing up his mission. But all sensible people share Senor Sa- gasta's oplrrion that it would be better to secure peace on any terms, wniie protesting against ungenerous treat ment. "There Is a widespread feeling in Spain that It would be better to get rid of the ungrateful colonies and ot everything calculated to lead to fresh American aggression. The bitterness of the feeling against the United States Is now greater than ever among all classes. Certainly the government's principal preoccupation is the ques tion of a Caillrt rising, but It is believ ed that any attempt could be speedily suppressed. " The Times, commenting edlto.lally this morning upon the Spanish sugges tion of arbitration, refers to It as "ob viously futile and absurd." "The Spanish cabinet." says The Times, "has no real Intention of breaking off the negotiations, It Is only prolonging them In order to familiarize the public mind In Spain with the Inevitable conces sions. Certainly there Is no need for the United States to send a fleet to Spain, as they could easily enforce sub mission without that. Spain would be foolish to sulk nnd thus loso the money compensation America la now willing to pay." The Paris correspondent of the Dnlly Telegraph says: "I understand thut Senor Sagnsta desires to protract the Paris negotiations to the utmost, be- cnuse he feni:., first, that the signature ot 11 peuce treaty will be the end of his public life. .ind.

General Otis, the commander of the American forces, recently p'op "d to Agulnahlo that he release the frlais ami civilians held In captivity throughout the provinces. The Insurgent leader denied their mnl licatment nnd refused to release the prisoners, clulming that the civilians had enlisted ns volunteers and, there fore, were legitimate prisoners of war. Agulnaldo also denied that women and children were detained, but said some women nnd children had voluntarily accompanied their husbands and fath ers Into c upllvlty. As to the frlnis, Agulnaldo argues that they are piohlblted by the pope from accepting imroehlal appointment!", that they are only permitted to follow monastic life, und that the parishes are entrusted to ministers ot the Inde pendent monastic otders. Hut, he adds, the Philippine clericals have deliber ately and systematically deceived tho pope, pretending thnt the country was barbarous, unlit for the regular minis try, nnd that It was necessary that the monastic orders should administer tha parishes. Therefore, Agulnaldo con tinued, hp considered it necessary to detain the friars until the pope is undeceived. Advices from Hollo sny the natives of that vicinity distrust Agulnaldo and want American domination. ''tilled llnnkor'H Sulcldo. Kmporla. Kan.. Nov. 17.
