ALL COLORS KEPT I fi STOCK BY SANTIAGO SU How it Was .All A.: After With tlic United States troops bc foro Santiago dc Cuba, July 14, G p. m., via Kingston. July 15, 12:15 p. m.-Tho reverse to thc Spanish anns in Eastern Cuba is complete. Santiago has fallen, and with it all the eastern end of thc island. Gen. Toral, the Spanish commander, agreed to the general terms of the sur render at'a personal interview with (Jen. Shaftcr this afternoon, at which (jen. Miles was present. Thc victorious American army, after a campaign of three weeks of almost unprecedented hardships for both officers and met?, accept the news with heartfelt relief. The victory is greater than appeared at lirst. All tho Spanish troops in the -Ith corps, the military division of Santiago province, from a line drawn north from Asseradcros, IS miles west of Santiago, through Dos Palmas, Palmas Soriana, Alcanta/.u, to Sagua de Tanami), on the north coast, and eastward to Cape M ay si. are surren dered and the territory is abandoned. Between 18,000 and 20,000 Spanish prisoners aro taken, about 10,000 of whom ure in Santiago. The remainder are at Guantanamo and others aro , garrisoned in thc towns of Eastern Cuba. All these troops are to bc em barked and sent hack to Spain under parole. Gen. shafter bears his honors modestly. To a correspondent of the Associated Press he said: "Thc enemy has surrendered all the territory and troops east of Santiago. The terms were dictated from Washington. It has been a hard campaign-one of the hardest I ever saw. Tho difficulties to contend with were very great. Never during our civil war were more difficult problems solved. The char acter of the country and the roads made it seem almost impossible to advance in thc face of the enemy. The transportation problem was hard, but all the difficulties have been success fully surmounted. Our troops have behaved gallantly. They fought like heroes and I am proud to have com manded them. During all the hard ships they have suffered they have shown resolution and spirit. They deserve to conquer. "The resifctance of the enemy has been exceedingly stubborn. General Toral has proved himself a foeman worthy of any man's steel. "The negotiations which culminated in tho surrender of Gen. Toral have bceu dragging on for ten days, with the intermission of Sunday and Mon day, when our batteries and fleet bom barded the enemy's position. Through out these periods of truce Gen. Toral has shrewdly played for time, always declining to surrender unconditionally, and falling back wheo hard pressed upon tho statement that he was simply a subordinate and powerless to agree to the proposals without the sanction of his superiors, except under penalty of being court-martialed. At thc same time he seemed to intimate that personally ho thought it useless to hold out any longer. But he and his garrison were soldiers, he said, and they could die if necessary obeying orders." It was at the personal interview held by Gen. Shafter with Gen. Toral yesterday that the American General made the Spanish ?ommander under stand that temporizing must cease, and that before noon to-day a cate gorical affirmation to his offer must be received or tho bombardment of the city would bpgin in earnest. In the meantime all our plans had been perfected. The delay had been utilized to good advantage. Our lines had been extended until Santiago was nearly surrounded, ?ind our light bat teries had been posted as to bc able to do more effective work. In addition, arrangements had been made to land troops at Cabanas, west of the entrance of the harbor of San tiago. The Spanish batteries, opposite Morro Castle, were to be bombarded and stormed, their guns were then to be turned upon the city, and Gen. Lawton's division at the same time was to fall on thc enemy's left flank, under the cover of our artillery fire. We could then have enfiladed their lines and have driven them into the city. Gen. Toral must have realized that he was trapped, and that to hold out longer meant a useless sacrifice of his men; but he made one last effort to .gain more time this morning. While nominally yielding to the terms Gen. Shafter proposed, before 8 o'clock he sent a communication to Gen. Shafter, enclosing ja copy of a telegram from Captain General Bianco, explaining that the surrender of such an impor tant position as Santiago and the abandonment of Eastern Cuba would require the direct sanction of tho Madrid Government, and requesting more timo to hear from Madrid. At tho same time Captain General Blanco authorized Gen. Toral, if it was agree able to the American general, to ap point commissioners to meet like com missioners on the American side to arrange the terms of the capitulation of the foTce nnder his command on the condition of their parole and trans portation to Spain, pending the sanc tion of Madrid. He also communicat I ed the names of the commissioners he i had selected, namely, Robert Mason, I the British vicec?nsul, Gen. Torsi's ! chief of staff, Col. Fon/aine, and Gen. Escarajao. This communication was so ambig uous that it might alltbe upset by the refusal of Madrid to sanction the ?KRENDERED. pranged, on Thursday .noon. terms agreed to by the commissioners and GOD. Shafter resolved to have all the ambiguity removed before pro ceeding further. At ll o'clock he mounted his horse and together with (Jeu. Miles and their staffs ho rode to the front. At Gen. Wheeler's head quarter Gen. Shafter, Gen. Miles, j Gol. Mnus and ntl interpretor left their retinue and passed on over our trenches j with :i Hag of truce to the mango tree j under which tho interview was held ! yesterday. They were soon joined hy i Gen. Toral, his chief of staff and the j .wo other commissioners appointed by ? him. , Gen.. Miles took no part in the j negotiations. He lias been careful j j since Iiis arrival here not t>? assume | i the direction of affairs or ti? detract in thc least front the glory of Gen. Sltaf . I tor's achievement. j Gen. Shafter insisted at tho outset i ; that the commissioners to he Appointed j should have paramount authority to i make and conclude thc terms of sur render in accordance with our de mands, j After parleying, Gen. Toral acceded i to this, explaining that since his last communication he had received direct authority from Captain (Jen. Blanco to do HO. This being the main point, tho interview was soon concluded. Before parting Gen. Shafter couipli ' mented Gen. Toral very highly upon the .skill and gallantry of his resist- ? ance. Upon the return to Gen. Wheeler's headquarters the news of our complete victory was communicated to Gen. Lawton and to Gen. Kent and to thc br?date commanders. A scene of gen eral rejoicing followed. Gen. Shaftcr held a regular le^ce before he dismounted and was con gratulated and complimented by all. lie immediately appointed General Wheeler, Gen. Lawton and Captain J Miley to he commissioners on his I behalf to treat with those appointed' by Gen. Toral. Ile then issued orders to permit our troops to retire from the trenches, but absolutely forbidding anyone, soldier or civilian, from going into the Spanish lines. The refugees arc to he permitted to return to their homes, hut neither our troops nor the Cuban auxiliaries are to be permitted to enter the city at present. Tho order as to the Cubans is very specific. The have shown a disposi tion to loot every and any place. But they aro not to have the privilege of glutting their appetite for plunder in j Santiago. A guard is to be maintained about the oity and the camps of our soldiers arc to be removed just to the front or to the rear of our lines as in individual cases is most practicable. The change of the camp sites will undoubtedly improve thc health of the troops. The whole purpose of the American commander now is to protect the health of the army espe cially from the dreaded contagion. It is claimed there is no fever in Santiago, but the city is full of filth and stench and if our men arc allowed to go in it will undoubtedly become a pest hole. The boys in the trenches were igno rant of the outcome of the negotia tions until a heavy luncheon of coffee, hard tack and corned beef was served. Then Gen.'Shafter appointed Col. Astor and Capt. McKittrick to convey the welcome tidings along the lines. Some of the officers favored celebra ting the victory with bands aud a noisy demonstration, hu*. Gen. Shafter vetoed thc proposition. Ile said there was no occasion to humiliate thc enemy who had fought bravely. Not even cheering was to be permitted, but before Col. Astci and Capt. Mc Kittrick could warn the soldiers thc latter broke out in wild hurrahs. Some danced about, threw their hats into the air, hugged each other and congratulated themselves upon the prospect of getting out of Cuba in a few days. ' . . Gen. Shafter instructed the commis sioners that the inside harbor entrance be immediately opened to allow Clara Barton, of tho lied Cross Society, and. the supply ships, to enter, and that thc railroad from Siboncy be opened for a similar purpose. We are to supply the Spanish pris oners with food pending their concen? trution and embarkation, Gcit. Toral requested this, saying that there was very little food. It is probable that thc Spanish steamers in tho harbor will he used in part for the. transportation of the surrendered sol diers to Spain. Thc Spanish troops abandoned the entrenchments carly this afternoon and went into thc city. Our Commissioners, accompanied by an interpreter, entered the Spanish lines shortly after 2 o'clock and had not returned when tho correspondent left with this dispatch. Gen. Miles and his staff arrived at Siboney from the front this evening and went aboard the Coneha. On the wharf Geo. Miles said: "Santiago has surrendered on our terms, ..f ter vainly trying for a long time to get better ones. Tho result is highly gratifying. The Spanish prisoners will bo tran sported to Spain by us. The surren der carries with it not only the city of Santiago, but tho entire Santiago mili tary district, being the eastern portion of Cuba, west to a line drawn from Asseraderos on tho south coast to Saguo on the north coast. Manzanillo and Holguin are not included. "The possession of tho surrendered di strict wiil be yielded at once, and a commission of six, three from each side, will meet tli i s afternoon to ar range details of the transfer. The American troops will be left where they aro for a time until they ure needed for service elsewhere. "I do not wish to say what point will be attacked next. I may come ashore again here, but hardly think so." OM? ( i LORY FLOATS OVEH SANTIAGO, SANTIAGO I?K CUIIA, duly IT-Noon -Amid impressive ceremonies the Spanish troops laid down their anns between the lines of the Spanish and American forces at !. o'clock this morning. (?en. Shafter and thc American division and brigade commanders and their statis were escorted by a troop of cavalry, and (?en. Toral and his Stall' by one hundred picked men. Trumpeters on both sides saluted with flourishes, (jen. Shafter return ed to (?en. Toral the latter's sword I after it had been handed to the Amer ican commande:. Our troops, lined up at the trenches, were eye-witnesses of tho ceremony, (jen. Shaffer and his escort, accom panied by (Jeu. Toral, rode through the city, taking formal possession. The city had been sacked before they arrived by the Spaniards. At thc palace elaborate ceremonies tonk place Kxaelly at nomi the American Hag was raised over the (talace and was sainted with twenty one guns hy Capt. Ca peron s battery. At the same time all the regimental band;- in our line played "The Star Spangled Manner," after which Presi dent .McKinley's congratulatory tele gram was read to each regiment. The 13th and Sltll regiments of in fantry will remain in thc city to en force order and exercise "'municipal authority. Thc Spanish forces are to encamp outside of our lines. CEREMONIES IN THE C1TV. SANTIAGO DE CUIIA, Sunday 17-1 p. m.-Thc American flag is floating in triumph over tho Governor's palace nt Santiago de Cuba. < ?en. McKibbon has benn appoiuted temporary military Governor. The ceremony of hoisting thc Stars and Stripes was worth all the blood and treasure it cost. A concourse of ten thousand people witnessed thc stirring and thrilling scene that will live forever in the minds ol' all the Americans present. A liner stage setting for a dramatic episode it would be difficult to imagine. The palace, a picturesque old dwelling in the Moorish style of architecture, faces the plaza De La Reina, the principal public square. Opposite rises tin imposing Catholic Cathedral. On out side is a quaint, brilliantly painted building, with broad verandas-tin club of Sau Carlos, on the other-? building of much the same dcscriptioi: -is the cafe De La Veuus. Across the plaza was drawn up th? ihh infantry, headed by thc Gt! cavalry band. In the street facing the palace stood a picked troop of th? 2d cavalry, with drawn sabres, undei command of Capt. Brett. Massed or thc stone flagging between the batu and thc line of horsemen were tin brigade commanders of (?en. Shafter'i division, with their staffs. On tho red tiled roof of the palac? stood Capt. McKittrick, Lieu'.. Mile; and Lieut. Wheeler; immediate!; above them, upon tho flagstaff, tin illuminated Spanish arms and th legend, '.'Vive Alfonso' XII." Al about, pressing against the.vcrand rails, crowding to wiudows and door and liniug the roofs were the pcc;d of the town, principally women am non-combatants. As thc chimes o thc old cathedral rang out thc hour 0 twelve the infantry and cavalry pre sented arms, livery American uti covered, and Capt. McKittrick hoiste thc Stars and Stripes. As thc bril liant folds unfurled in a gentle bree/. Against a tieckless sky, the cavalr bund broke into the strains of "Th Star Spangled Banner," making th American pulse leap and the Atncri eau hcartthrill with joy. At the same instant the sound of th distaut booming of Capt. Cupron' battery, tiring a Balute of twenty-oil guns, drifted in. When the musi ceased, from all directions around oi linc carno floating across the plaza th strains of tho regimental bands an the muffled, hoarso cheers of ot troops. The infantry came to "ord< arms" a moment later, after tho flu was up, and the band played "Ball Round tho Flog, Boys." Instant! [?en. McKibbcn called for thrc sheers for (jen. Shafter. which wei given with great enthusiasm, tho ban playing Sousa's "Thc Stars and Strip? forever." The ceremony over. (Jen. Shaft? md Iiis staff returned to the Amer jan lines, leaving thu city in th possession of the municipal au thor ?tie subject to the contra] of Gcn MoKil jen. PR0?RK8M OK THE SURRENDER.
