THEIR RELATIONS STRAINED.
AMERICANS AND CUBAN SOL
DIERS NOT TOGETHER-
The Cubans are Chagrined Ifecause
Shatter Did not Turn Over Santiag*
To Them, And They Won’t V ork—
Americans Have No Use For Them.
(Copyright, 1898. by Associated Press )
Santiago de Cuba, July 28,—A
fact which is impressed more and
more every day upon* the Ameri-
cae officers and men is the increas
ing strained relations between the
Americans and Gen. Garcia’s
Cuban soldiers. Indeed the situa
tion has now reached a point
where there is practically no com
munication between the armies and
their relations border on those of
hostility rather than the relations
which one would suppose should
exist between allies.
* -^Vfter Gen. Shafter announced
Iris decision not to let the Cuban
Junta enter the city of Santiago,
deep mutterings were heard among
Gen. Garcia’s men. It was evi
dent the Cubans were greatly dis
appointed at the step taken by the
American commander, for they
confidently counted upon having
Santiago turned over to them to
loot and plunder, as they had in
succession sacked Baiqutri, Sibo-
ney and El Caney. Consequently
their disappointment was keen
when they ascertained that they
were not to be permitted to take
sssession of the city upon Gen.
possessic
ffaffaTs surrender. On Friday last I '
- fffer a bforner op t . | ^
tritlS Castillo, went to Shafter,s ■
headquarters in order to ascertain
the cause of this, to the Cubans,
fore the detachment of troops
from Charleston
War department officials feel
that they are fully justified in
their decision to retain practically
all of Sbafter’s army at Santiago
by the press reports that reached
them to day indicating the growth
of serious friction between the
American forces and Cuban
troops growing out of the latter’s
exclusion frou Santiago by
■Shafter’s orders. It is felt now
that the garrison originally pro
posed, two immune regiments,
would have been quite insufficient
to meet an outside force that
might come from Holguin or Man-
zanilo and also to restrain the
rapacity of the Cubans. It is re
alized that the present situation
is full of difficulty aud the future
is dark owing to the disposition
evidenced by the Cubans to ignore
or refuse to be bound by the amer-
ities of modern warfare. This
first symptom of friction has sug
gested to the officials innumerable
difficulties that will arise in the
future. Of course it would seem
to be only politic not to avoid any
open rupture with the Cubans
provided they can be kept in leash
and not involve the United States
in the disgrace that would follow
the sacking of helpless communi
ties, but it begins to appear that
for some time to come, aud even
after the conquest of Cuba is com
plete, the United States must
maintain there a military govern
ment in older to meet the respon
sibilities which it has assumed to
the civilized world.

“Why is Santiago to remain in
the hands ol our enemies?” he
asked.
“The Spaniards are not our
eneaiies,” replied Gen. Shafter.
“We are fighting the soldiers of
Spain, but we have no desire to
despoil her citizens. No Cuban
will be allowed to enter the city
nor will any American soldier.
The government of the city is a
matter for the people to decide.
When the Ameiican army leaves
it, I presume it will be turned over
to you, but not until then.”
Castillo, who came direct from
Gen Garcia’s camp, did not at-
temp to conceal his chagrin.
The Cuban soldiers now fully
realize that there is a rising senti
ment against them in the army.

scorn from our men as the pass,

Washington, July 19.—Because
of a failure on the part of Gen.
Miles to receive the orders the
Presida^t prepared late yesterday,
to takPcommand of the military
expedition against Porto Rica, that
officer did not depart as was ex
pected from Siboney. 3 he mis
take was soon corrected this morn
ing, however, and as a result of
some short telegraphic correspon
dence that followed during the
day it was gathered at the depart
ment that the Yale would start to-
uight. Contrary to the first in
tention, and probably without
Gen. Miles’ seeking, the tale is to
be convoyed by several vessels
that Admiral Sampson has been
instructed to select from among
the vessels of his fleet. 3 his may
result in delaying Gen. Miles’ pro
gress somewhat as none of the ves-
fels with Sampson are able to
keep pace with the Yale. Never
theless, there is no doubt that the
general will reach Porto Rico be-
