WAITING FOR THE END
Protocol Will Probably Be Signed
Today.
Washington. Ausr. 12. It is learn-
ed this morning that the protocol
which is expected to be approved today
by Spain and the United States pro-
vides for three commissions one to ar-
range for the surrender of Cuba and
another for the surrender of Porto
Rico. The latter two will be military
bedies and will be somewhat similar
to the commission appointed by Shat-
ter and Toral to negotiate the surren
der of Santiago.
The members of these commissions
on the part of tne United States will
however be appointed by the president
and they with the Spanish members.
will settle the details of the surrender.
The military men who will be appoint
ed to the Porto Rico commission will
be chosen from general officers already
on the island.
Washington Aug. 12. The ca
binet assembled promptly at 11 o'clock
this moroiner. On arriving at the
white houre Secretary Day stated that
he had not been officially or otherwise
advised when Cambon would make his
next call on the department.lt isthought
however that he will communicate
with this government later in the
day.
Washington Aug. 12. The dis
patch authorizing the French ambas
sador to sign the protocol looking to
the cessation of hostilities began to ar-
rive at the embassy at 1 o'clock this af-
ternoon. It is said at the embassy that as soon
as tne translation is completed M.
Theibault-would goto the state depart-
ment and arrange for a visit of the am-
bassador to sign the protocol with the
secretary of state.
Madrid Aug. 12. The govern-
meni has notified M. DelCasse French
minister of foreign affairs of Spain's
acceptance of the tenor of the United
States protocol. The government
ill now ask the French gov
ernment to transmit to M.
Cambon plenary power which
will authorize him to sign the protocol.
The efforts of the Spanish government
will now be directed toward prevent-
ng a domestic outbreak. A procla
mation will be issued to the 6panisb
people portraying in a most favorable
way the terms of the United States.
Washington Aug. 12 President
McKinley was nolIBedof the receipt of
a dispatch from the Madrid govern
ment by M. Cambon and informed
that the protocol would be signed this
ftcrnooD. the exact hour to be 6xed
by Secretary Day later. The un-
expected length cf the dispatch is
said to be due to the fact that it con
tained in formal and precise terms
the exact scope and limits of the power
conferred on M. Cambou to represent
Spain which this government insisted
should be set forth plainly and fully.
PRESIDENT'S REST.
A Vacation Already Arranged For.
Washington Aug. 12. President
McKinley is preparing to take a much
needed rest just as soon as the finish-
ing touches are given the official docu-
ments establishing peace between the
United States and Spain. That will be
accomplished speedily unless the un-
foreseen happens and the president is
credited with having said to several
prominent callers within the present
week that be felt so sure hostilities
were practically over he was already
making arrangements for his vaca-
tion. Unless at the last moment the pres-
ident changes his mind he will not re-
view any troops either at the camps
or in the cities where efforts are be-
ing made to have demonstra-
tions in honor of the soldiers
and sailors returning from the
war. Official high authority states that
the president lias received so many
such invitations that it will be impossi-
ble for him to accept. McKinley looks
well in spite of his long seige of work
and his constant attention to his duty
during the summer.
MYSTERY.
An Awful Crime Suspected.
UUTHRIE Ok. AUffUSt 12. Thir

me iwo men Matt Uer kley and Aaron
Davis who were found dead at the

evidence shows that their skulls wem
crushed by a blow with an axe. and
their heads were cut off with the same
instrument used by the men. The men
bad lately come from PuebloC'olorado

lishment of peace was signed by M. Jules Cambon -French

half of Spain and William R.
the United States.

Extra Precautions Against Yellow
Fever.
Montauk L. I.. Aug. 12. Trans-
ports bearing the first detachment of
Santiago troops are expected to arrive
here this evening. These vessels are
the Miami Mattewan and Vigilancia
and they left Santiago August 3. On
board are the Rough Riders the First
regiment of regular cavalry aod bat-
tery H of the 4th artillery. Roosevelt
and the Rough Riders are cn the Mia-
mi. Elaborate preparations are being
made for the examination and isola-
tion of fever patients so as to protect
the main body of troops in camp.
Yellow fever experts believe the
disease would not spread in this
climate but individual cases would run
their course.

ing was received at the war depart-
ment this morning: Santiago via

DISGRACEFUL.
Terrible State of Affairs In The Ar my
In Virginia.
In the field Thoroughfare Gap
Virginia Aug. 12. Details of the aw-
ful suffering of the troops on changing
camps marching from Camp Alger to
Manassas Va. are just becom-
ing known. The men are thorough-
ly disgusted with their treat-
ment and unless extraordinary steps
are taken to prevent it tnousands will
desert as soon as they receive their
July pay. And while they may be
guilty of i grave offense according to
strict military law no one who knows
their suffering can blame them for time
moment.
It is a wonder there is a man left in
the entire second division. .Evon
when the army rations are plentiful
hunger is not unknown "but actual
starvation has stared the volunteer ar-
my in the face for a week and condi-
tions are now but little better. Old
soldiers say such a disgraceful state of
affairs never existed even during; the
civil war when forced marches through
an enemy's country were necessary.

special to the Evening World says:
Jack York of Pennsylvania who has
been serving with Garcia has just ar-
rived here with reports that Garcia
has suspended operations for 30 days
and has given bis men permission to
go home with instructions to report to
him at the end of that period.

AMONG DEMOCRATS.
Reported Scheme To Defeat Bryan
In 1900.
Saratoga N. Y .Aug. 12 Senator
Gorman of Maryland is here staying
a t the same hotel with Boss Croker.
With the coming of Gorman comes the
story of the contemplated creation of
a new national committee to accom-
p lish the defeat of silver and Bryan in

k er Gorman Carter Harrison of Chl-
cago W. J. Stone of Missouri and

ISailey Altgeld and Tillman as de-
mocratic leaders.
Harrison is credited with having de-
feated Altgeld's power in Illinois.
S tone just won a victory in Missouri
o ver Stevens Bland and Champ Clark.
Hogg defeated Joe Bailey in the Texas
state convention and is now regarded
a s the democratic leader of the state.
Oorman is said to be regaining control
0 f the democratic party in Maryland
They all want something. Croker
so the story goes wants to be chairman
a f the committee. Harrison wants to
be president. Stone wants his friend
Congressman Dearmond to be leader
for speaker. Gorman wants to get
back into the senate and Hogg wants
t.nytbing he can get including the
scalp of Joe Bailey.
PROROGUED.
British Parliament Adjourns.
Iondon Aug. 13. Parliament was
prorogued today. The queen's speech
in prorogation contained nothing of
importance on eastern questions except
the following:
"The changes which have taken
place in the territorial relations of the
other powers with the Chinese empire
have induced me to conclude agree-
ments by which the harbor of Wei
Hai Wei and certain positions adj acent
to my colony of Hong Kong bave been
leased to me by the emperor of China.
"I trust these arrangements will con
duce to the maintenance of his inde-
pendence and the security of bis em-
pire and will be favorable to the
development of the extensive com-
merce which is already carried on be-
tween the people of Great Britain and
China."
Concerning the Spanish-American
war the speech says: "Her majesty
has witnessed with the deepest sorrow
the hostilities between Spain and the
United States. The present negotia-
tions give hope of an honorable and
enduring peace'
