Before the house committee on military affairs yesterday General Miles declared that 40,000 soldiers were needed abroad and 25,000 at homo. When asked "When will the Cuban government be organ ized?" ho replied: "I do not know: that Is a political question." Oeneral SchotUld, who preceded Gen eral Miles In command of the army, devoted his chief attention to the fric tion Inevitably arising between the sec retary of war and the commanding general under the present system. The trouble arose out of the syBtem which gave the head of the army the name of commanding general, when In fact he had little or no o.horlty, or even Influence, as commanding general. Whether he does anything depends largely on his personal relations with the secretary of war. If these rela tlons are not close then the secretary of war gets to Ignoring the so-called commanding general. General Schofleld thought the army should consist of about 30,000 for the Philippines, 15,000 to 20,000 for Cuba, 5,000 to 8,000 for Porto Ttlco, 15,000 for manning and caring for fortifications, 10,000 for the Indian country and 15,000 as a reserve. After General Schofleld had concilia ed General Miles spoke briefly on what had been sold as to the commanding general. He said the laws now clearly lecognlzed this position as commanding general, and one of these laws made the general commanding the army a member, ex-ofllclo, of the fortifications board. He did not approve the sug gestion that the head of the army be an executive staff ofTlcer to the presi dent. During most of the time In the lost 100 years the army had been under the command of a general or lieutenant general, and that was the practice the world over. General Miles said he did not speak from a personal standpoint, as he was ready to be retired at any time. But he believed in the principle of rank and authority commensurate with the responsibility. General Miles said In reply to a ques tion that he thought It would be bet ter for the president to have the war minister more particularly direct tho vast administrative work of the war department, as It was manifestly Im possible for any man to come from civil life and at once become familiar with all the latest appliances of war. It the one occupying the chief military position was not liked then let some one else be placed In military authority.

Three Cubans were killed and one Spanish olllcer and two Cubans were wounded Sunday night in an affray between some Spanish of ficers off duty and a number of citizens und a party of Cubans who wished to close the Tacon theater on account or the death of Generul Callxto Garcia nl Washington. The Spanish troops on duty Intervened and restored order. After the news of General Garcia s death spread through Havana the Cu bans wished to have all the places of amusement closed. They succeeded In closing two places frequented by Cu bans, but the management of the Tacon theater, where there were many Span ish olflcers among the audience, re fused to close the house. Thereupon Allegretto, a former captain of Insur gent troops, got Into an excited argu ment with the manager of the theater, ond Allegrette was escorted to the side walk by the police on duty. There Allegrette entered Into a heated dis cussion with a Spanish ofllcer, who struck him across the face with the flat of his sword. Then there was a collision between the Cubans and the Spanish military men, more blows were struck on both sides, and many persons from the cafes and park cheered for Spain and; brought crowds of people to the spot from adjacent streets and squares. Suddenly a shot was fired, whether by a Cuban or a Spaniard, Intentionally or accidentally, cannot be said, and the Cubans retreated Into the Hotel Ingla tcrra. More shots were fired on both sides, and Arturo Tuzet, a French citizen born In Havana, was shot and seriously wounded while sitting at a table. More shots were fired, and the Cu bans ran through the hotel ofTlce and made their way upstairs. Jesus Soto Iongo, a Cuban, fell wounded, on the stairs, and another wounded man broke Into the room occupied by Lieutenant Fltzhugh Lee, son of the famous gen eral and former consul here, demand ing protection. General Greene and several members of his staff, who bad been out on a balcony watching the crowd heard the uproar In the hotel and went Into the corridor. So soon as the Spanish of ficers saw General Greene,' who was in uniform, they stopped the pursuit of the Cubans, saluted and retired. In the meantime Eastaqulo Lemus had been fatally wounded In the streetB, and Pedro Blesa and Senor JImlnez had been killed. At the time the Cubans and pursuing Spaniards ran through the Hotel In glaterra General Humphreys was In the lobby talking to Mojor Martin, of Gen eral Greene's staff, and other gentle men. A bullet shattered a mirror near which they stood and two others splin tered the staircase. General Julio San gullly was sitting at a table In the lobby. The violent scenes In the office and on the stairs lasted, however, for a few minutes only. It Is reported that In addition to those killed and wounded who have been previously mentioned 14 are being cared for In private houses. Three ar rests were made. A few minutes after the shooting In the hotel frightened pntronB and Cu bans gathered around General Greene, asking If he would protect them. He ussured them that he believed they were safe, hut the only recognized au thority In Havana was the Spanish ex ecutlve. He then sent messengers to General Castellanos to inquire what was being done to preserve order. The latter replied that the cafes had been ordered closed and the streets cleared while troops In sufficient numbers to keep the peace had been posted In the squares and thoroughfares. The First North Carolina regiment, which arrived here Sunday morning on the United States transport Itou- manlan. disembarked yesterday and marched through the city, with band and colors, to Camp Marlanao. By tho time the regiment had reached the sub urb of Cerro many hundreds of men, women and children were following, nlj showing deeu emotion, the men em bracing one another, the women weep- pg from excessive pleasure and the children shouting endearing names as the North Carolinians marched along, The troops were amazed at the In tensity of feeling displayed. Several hundred Cubans followed the regiment all the way to Marlanao, a distance of seven miles, Captain General Castellanos accuses the Cuban General Jose Sangullly and Jose Lacrct of a pint to create an up rising and seize the city at a time when the Spanish garrison Is greatly weaken ed nnd before the American troops have arrived In numbers sufficient to enforco order. He declares that the riot of Sunday night wns provoked by San gnllly and Lacret. and he Issued dW rectlons yesterday for their arrest, Sangullly and Lacret promptly appeal ed to the British consulate nnd to the American, ofllceru for protection These ()ltialH requested the captain general not to carry out the order of arrest.

In closing the ease for the prisoner Mr. Shields spoke for three-quarters of an hour. Mr. Steele was nlwnys re ferred to by Mr. Shields as an "under ling." The directors, Mr. Slngerly and Mr. Kckles. on the contrary, were re peatedly referred to as. "their high ncsses nnd mightinesses." District Attorney Beck followed with a short closing address, calling par ticular attention to Mr. Steele's testl mony that lt must have been an over sight on his part, reporting to the comptroller that there were no exces slve loans. Mr. Beck said he was glad to abandon the six counts In the In dictment which charged Mr. Steele with misapplication of funds for his own benefit. "From the testimony." said the district attorney. "I find theBe counts are unsupported, and eongrat' ulate Mr, Steele upon the evidence that his hands have never been soiled by a dollar of the bank not Justly his own.
