Beilin, Aug. 2.— The news of Prince
Bismarck’s death, which became gen
erally known only through special edi
tions of the papers, produced profound
sorrow, ns so sudden a realization of the
fears of his demise was not expected.
Several papers this morning published
special articles with mourning borders,
expressing, in feeling terms, tiie na
tional sorrow, und dwelling on the bril
liant and jmmoital services of the
prince to the fatherland, his heroic
greatness and iiis truly German charac
ter. Sorrowful sympathy over Prince
Bismarck’s death is manifested in
many ways. The news is oonstmitly
discussed in publio places, and a feel-
ing of sadness prevails among all classes
of people. Particulars of the last mo
ments of the prince and otiier cicium-
stances attending hi? death are eagerly
sought.
Many private houses show
flags at half mast. Secretary of Stale

Port of Ponco, Poito Rico, via the
Island of St. Thomas, Aug. 1,— The
port of Ponce surrendered to Com

There was no resist

comed with enthusiasm.
Major-General Miles arrived here
this morning at daylight, with General
Ernst's brigade and Geneial Wilson’B
divisions on board transports. General
Ernst’s brigade immediately started fur
the town of Ponce, three miles inland,
which capitulated this afternoon.
The American troops are pushing to
ward the mountains, and will join Gen
eral Henry,with his brigade, at Yauco,
which has been captured by our troops.
A fight heioie the latter place last

General Garietson led the

several wounded.
None of our men
were killed, and only four were slightly
wounded.
The Porto Ricans ate glad the Amer

aro all Americans and will join our
army. The roads are good for milituiy
purposes.
Our troops are in good
health, and General Miles says the
campaign will lie »hint and vigoious.
General Miles has issued the follow
ing proclamation:
“ In the prosecution of the war against
the kingdom of Spain by the people of
tho United States in the cause of lib
erty, justice and humanity, its military
forces have ooino to occupy the island
of Porto Rico. They come bearing the
banners of freedom, inspired bv a noble
purpose, to seek the enemies of our gov
ernment and of youra, and to destroy or
capture all its aimed resistance. They
bring you the fostering arms o[ a freo
preople, whose greatest | m > wci is justice
ami humanity to all living within tlieir
fold.
Hence they release you from
your former political relations, and it
is hoped this will be followed by your
cheerful acceptance,
"T h e chief object of tho Amerionn
"military foioes will lie to overthrow the
authority of Spain and give the people
of your beautiful land the largest meas
ure of liberty consistent with this m ili
tary occupation.
They have not mine
to make war on tho people of the ooun- j
try, who for centuries have been op
pressed, but, on the contrary, they
come to protect not only yomselves,
but your property, promote your pros

blessings of our enlightened nil I liberal
institutions and government. It is not
the purpose to Interfere with tho exist
ing laws and customs which are whole
some and beneficial to tho people, so
long as they conform to tho rules of
the military administration, ordet and
justice. This is not a war of devasta

naval foioes the advantages and bles

PANIC
Key West, Aug. 2.— Reports have
reached here that Neuvilas, on the
mu them coast of the province of Puer
to Principe, Cuba, has lieon bombarded
by the ships of the blockading squad-
run, evacuated by the Spanish and sub
sequently burned.
No details are
known, and the only information of
the affair was that given to Captain
Maynard, of tho gunboat Nashville, by
Lieutenant-Colonel Rojas, of the insui-
gent focies at Uibara, last Tuesday.
Colonel Rojas himself has the news at
second hand.
The only American ships known to
have been in tho vicinity of Neuvitas
lately are the Prairie and Badger. The
latter captured three Spanish ships
coining out of the Neuvitas haibor, ami
took them to Dry Tortugas. A ll weie
flying Red Cross flags, but when board
ed were found to contain a number of
Spanish soldicis, only three of whom
were sick.
The Badger is expected
here shoi tly.
The Nashivlle reported at Gihata on
Tuesday, when she captured the schoon
ers Gihara and Expresso. On entering
tiie harbor, she was met by tho ex-
United States consular agent and pres
ident of tiie railroad line to Holguin.
He told tho Americans of the evacua
tion of Gihara two days before by Gen
eral Leque and bis 1,800 Spanish troops,
who feaied a concerted attack by Amer
icans and Oubaus. They fled to Hol
guin by rail, and afterwaid store up the
tracks.
Geneial Lequez left in the
Gibara hospital 535 sick and wounded
Spanish soldiers with a request to A d
miral Sampson to see thut they wore
properly cared for.
The next day tho Cuban forces, con
sisting of 500 cavalty, under Lieuten
ant-Colonel Rojas, and 200 infantry,
made a triumphant entry into the town.
They were received with acclamations
by the Unbans, and the towu held fes
tival that day and night. The insurg
ents took formal possession, establish
ing police system and sent out scouting
parties, and when the Nashivlle ar-
lived, the best of older was being main
tained. The invadeiR had, however,
neglected the schooners in the harbor,
{ and the American ships took possession
of them.
When Ensign Snow left with a
prize crew to hi ing tho Gibara hero, it
had been determined to raise the Amer
ican flag over the town.

No
confidence exists, owing to the uncer
tainty of the future.
Orders that
weie given during the first days of the
American occupation have been coun
termanded by cable. European mer
chandise on through bills of lading via
New York lias been ordered unshipped
and sold in New York, even at a sacri
fice.
The same feeling extends to the
Cuban merchants themselves, who
seem to have lost faith in the ability of
tlieir own people to control affairs. The
rebels demand independent«, but the
hotter classes, the merchants and land
owners, dread suoh a possibility, ami
fervently hope that the United States
will retain the reins of government in
tho island, as the only gnaiantee of
stability or prospority.
Senor Julian Cemioja, agent of the
Ward line of steamers, says that a
hundred Spanish merchants have ap
plied for cabin and baggage room on
the return trip of the steamer Philadel
phia, which is expected today, and
they will leave the city unless there is
tome assiiiance from the American gov
ernment th ut it intends to control the
administration of public affairs in
Cuba.
This is tho question uppermost in
everybody’s mind. Spanish, foreigners
and natives are all alike anxious for a
definite expression from Washington of
the policy of the United States with
regard to Cuba, and until the expres
sion is made, no resumption of trade or
onmmercc can he expected in Santiago,
whero today both aro in a demoralized

London, Aug. 1.— Natives of the
Philippine islands und British subjects
who have interests there are alarmed
by the reports that the peace terms in-
cludo the return of the islands to
Spain. As a result they have held a
meeting here, and after consultation
with tho Filipinos in France and Bel
gium, have cabled to President McKin
ley ami to Senatoi Davis, chairman of
the senate foreign relations committee.
The message to President McKinley is
as follows:
"T h e Filipinos rosident ill Europe
pray you not to abandon the Philippine
islands for the sake of pence with
.Spain. Our loyalty and trust in tho
honor of America entitle us to your
consideration and sup|K>rt. To hand
over our country again to Spain is con-
tiury to the humanitarian proceedings
of your noble nation, and tiie wish of
all classes. Civilization, tiado and all
will bo lost if Spanish authority is re
established in any form.”
The message to Senator Davis says:
" A castiron agreement,
binding
Spain to form a government satisfac
tory to tho Inhabitants, is preposter
ous, To retuin her sovereignty means
deception, oppression und bigotry. We
place our rights in your hands, and
