Except the Spanish force at Sinllago, numbering about 1M, there are no Spanish troops within the surrendered lone, aa It has been overrun by Garcia' forces. The Spanish garrisons are at Manxanlllo and Holguln to the west of the surrendered lone. It Is saKl the Spanish garrisons do not exceed men. While Santiago Is In our hands the way will be clear for Admiral Sampson's fleet to enter the harbor and proceed up to the wharves, aa soon as the torpedoes and mines at the harbor entrance are re moved The fortifications of Morro Castle, So capa, Cayo Smith and others are In cluded In the surrendered tone. Posses sion of these tine fortresses, particularly Morro Castle, will afford valuable gar rison points for a large number of men. The terms under which these strongholds are acquired Is not yet known In detail, but It Is regarded us likely that their guns pass with the surrender. TO APPLY MONROE POCTRINE. Paris, July H.
