" GEOIILES'lVAttltn'ORT Cause of Sickness In the Concentration Camps WAS IACK Of PRIPARUION He Urges That an Increase In the LI- flclcncy of the Army Should be Mado at Once. Wakiiiniito.v, Nov, 10. The report of Majoi'-Gom-ral Miles, commanding the United Kta'os army, was made public to day by direction of Secretary Alger. Tho keynote of the report is found In one ol the opening sentences, where It is said: "The military operations durinx the year have been extraordinary, un usual and extensive," a statement which is fully brought out by the long recital of Important events which General Miles shows have made the military history of the yeur IH'JH tho most remarkable since tbo tod tho civil war. In point ol interest, ths document di vides naturally Into four chapters, for, while brief allusion ia made to such mat ters as ths military expeditions to AlaJ-ka, interest naturally renters in the pottinn which treats of llin war with Spain. I'nder this geueral bead the re port ot-als with tbt plans of campaign, with Geueral Miles' operations in Porlo Kio, and, lastly with th-s important charges in existing organizations which are, in General Miles' upiulon, necessary. to make the army au effective weapon tor the defense of the country. There is an eutire absonve of any evidence of di reel controversy, though certain sen tences in tbe report are italicized iu an apparent desire to justify previously ex- pressed plans or details of the campaign, and where if oals with events, the docu ment ii largely made up of quotation of oflkial dispatches. Treating of the war. Geueral Mil-s be gins aith a statement of tbe unprepared uess of the country, idioaing how the vast equipment li-fl by the 1,000,000 tol diers of the civil wsr had bsen diseipated or bad Lc-come cbsoieti until the tcut age, transportation aud camp equipage waa insullicient (or any imporcsnt military operation. He recounts I tie leg islrlioii of congress jo-it p'ior to the war, looking to tbo iucrcus'i of the army, and i-itPH his on recommendation ou Aprd 'J that 40,000 men be provided for coast defense and reuerve: that the tegular army be increased and about 10,000 im- mun-'a recruited, making a fon-e lo2,507 men, wtiich w ilh the b0,000 iiaval aux-iliaiii-s, li'j considered rut)ii.-ient. Such a force, properly tpiipp.d, he be ieved to lm belter ll.ua a lare force partly t'luippf I. Iu a littir t-JintMiniiig -the recjmmeiidatiou, hesi-J: 'I sliw recommend thai ut least 2 legiiiicula of ic.tautry, five regiments of cavalry and tho light ailillery be tnobil- usJ aud idaced in one largo camp, where tbi-y can be carefully end thoroughly iu sptcted, fully equipped, drilled, disci plined and instructed in brigades and divisons aud prepared (or war service." In order that the volunteers should ba speedily made eftlcieut, on April 26 Gen eral Miles wrote the secretary of war thft they ehcuM bo encamped for 00 days iu their respective elates and dia ciplited and equipped, and their olliceis instructed, a matter all-important, he said, to their heakh and ettlciency. ' This preiimiuary work should be done be ft id tbe troops leave their status, "wrote Geueral Miles, who, in bis report, adds this : "Congregating tens of thousands of men, many of whom were not nutformcd and tea reel y properly equipped, in great camps away from their states, rendered it difficult for them to be properly sup plied with food, cooking utensil-", camp equipage, blankets, tantage, medical supplies, transportation, etc., and was to a great extent tho cauee, in my judg ment, of the debilitating elTect upon tbe health aud strength ol tbe men, who wcro otherwise in good physical condi tion. The material neceseary to clothe aud equip lurgs armies was not even manufactured at that time, and the con sequent couditiou ol the trooi for weeks and months was injurious to the com mands in many ways." General Miles mentions by nmue r pe dal ly the oflken of his staff and the general officers cugaged, and recom mends a email list of oflicers for pro motion aud brevets. General Miles closes bis report with some earnest recommendations for the improvement of the military service. Ha trusts tbe experience of the last few mouths will be valuable to tho poople aud to the government. The value of coast defenses, ho Bays, has been prov en, aud tbo system should be completed without delay. He luvors the adoption of a standard of strength for the army to moi-t tho country's grow th, and suggests that it lie ouo soldier to every 1000 pop ulation, yielding a force of 02,579. While this force is ulrcady provided for, unfortunately tho authorization act re qui.es tho army to bo reduced to its former inadequate basis ou the tormina liou of tbo war. General Miles, iu conclusion, recom mo ud the authuiixatlou ol an auxiliary (ores of native troops iu Cuba, Porto Kico aud ths Phfilppiuos, to bo olhcored by tho I'uitod StaUs army odicers, and uot exceeding two soldiers for 1000 pop ulatiou of the islands, and all ol these Increases, he urges, should be made at ouce.

A dispatch to tbe Herald from Washington says: Instead of paying Spain (40,000,000 as an indemnity for the the cession of I ho Philippines to the Uulted HtaUs, Presi dent McKlnley Intends to reimburse ber only for the debt of about $1,000,000 contracted for public improvements. President McKinley and bis cabinet have carefully noted that tbe sentiment expressed throughout tbe country by the elections baa been in opposition to tbe suggestion to indemnify Spain to tbe extent first promised. As waa put out by tbe administration authorities, it was intended to give tho capital of the entire debt fliato I, with the Philip, pines as security, and amounting to ttO, 000,000. Wbat will be paid by the United States, according to the present intention of the president, is the debt contracted by Spain fur tbe establish ment cf lighthouses, harbor improve ments and public buildings. All told, this does not amount to a very large sum, being fixed at about $ 1,000.000. Friends of Spain in Ibe diplomatic corps say that it is at outrage for lbs president to offer such a smill sum. "Perhaps it would be the beet thing fcr Spain if she should rid herself of tbe Philippines," said one of these gentle men, ''but surely it is not right that the United States should satisfy only a small portion of the debt, leaving her with tbe remaininder on her bands, and with a low treasury to meet it."

From Mr. Day tbo officials have learued that the American com in is--loners yesterday presented tbe reply to the Spanish refusal t j suirender tho islands, and it is expected that now tbe adminis tration has been to satisfactorily in dorsed by the country the Spaniards will appreciate the hopelessness of their posi tion and accede to the demands of this government.
