San Jnnn, Potto Itioo, Sept. 20.
The preparations for the embarkation
of the Spanish troojis are rcportud to be
com pio to, although the American com
missioners have . not been officially ad
vised to that effect. Two ships of the
Compauia Transatlantica lire expected
to arrive here on the SOth jnst. Five
vessels will be required, to transport
all the baggae and equipment. The
Porto liican troops are to be landed
near Cadii.
Tho United States commissioners
have agieed that such troops as desire to
icmaiii here may do so, and oil the
volunteers and some of the regulars,
whose families and interests are here,
will remain.
If the necessary ships were here,
the island could be evacuated and
formally in our possession within three
days.
The American commissioners are
highly gratified with the spirit shown
by the Spaniards. Tho unexpected
has happened. Where it was expeocd
that opposition and delay would be
encountered, none lias been found.
Iu cood faith, tho Spanish commission
ers have met the Americans and ar
ranged with them the terms of evacua
tion. Our commissioners expect to see
the American flag hoisted and the
Spanish flag hauled down forever with

EVACUATION OF CUBA.
Will Nat Be Completed In Leee Thaa
flee Mentha.
Havana, Sept. 30. Rumors that
have been put in circulation to the
effect that General Wade, president of
tho evacuation commission, is ill with
yellow fever, may be denied absolutely.
General Wado is looking tho picture of
health. Tho general health on board
the steamer Itesolote is good.
An official meeting of the Spanish
commission was held last night to con
sider the form of evacuation by the
Spanish troops and with the object of
acquainting the Amerioans with the
positions and numbers of the Spanish
soldiers, and the best method of cm
barking them.
This afternoon there were sent on
board tli o Resoluto .scaled documents
supposed to contain the statement of
the results ot last night's conference.
It is understood that it is proposed to
start the evacuation from east to west,
embarking" the troops at the points of
Gibara, Nnevitus, Cionfucgos and Ha
vana.
The official statement of tbe number
ot Spanish soldiers in the island is
said to place the aggregate at 100,000,
and it is understood that it is proposed
that the men ciwiy with them their
arms, ammunition, material aud equip
ments. It is estimated that the enj of Feb
ruary will have come before the evacu
ation of tho island is completed. Tbe
soldiers most erubaik in Spanish ves
sels. It is suggested that this will be
an advantage to both countries, the
United States having an opportunity to
not I i mate its men during the winter
months, and it is pioposed that the
American government shall land troops
to occupy . each port simultaneootly
with its evacuation, not leaving any
post unguarded at any time.
A difference of opinion between a
Cuban and a Spanish officer iu a prom
inent cafo here this morning resulted
in an exchange of abusive language
and a free fight followed. The dis
turbance was promptly quelled by tiie
police, and tho ringleaders wero ar
rested. Tho disorder is said to have
been provoked by the Cuban. '
A secret meeting of the officers of
the Spanish warships now in ort was
held at tho govornor'a palace. The
object of the meeting is supposed to
have been consideration of the ques
tion of returning to Spain, whiuh ves
sels and a portion of the arinniueut
should be taken and which left.

ally stood at a height of 610 meters, is
now only 87 meters above tho Bea level,
owing to the sinking of tho ground.

ed to diminish the fears formorly felt,
which wero based upon the eruption of

' Afternoon, but a Filipino objected, and
BCCU9ed the Spaniard of attempting to
undermine the constitution. To tins
the Spaniard replied that he was a sin
cere republican, and that his own de
sire was the welfare of the conntiy.
Whereupon, the Filipino apologized,
and the proceedings terminated.
During the afternoon many Ameri
cans and Europeans arrived, and Agul-
j oaldo was kept busy receiving visitors,
including the American consul
J.ne press correspondent had a pri
vate interview with Aguinaldo, who is
extremely unwilling to compromise
himself with the natives. He said
that a majority of the Filipinos had
been struggling for freedom for years
and centuries, and that they now be
lieve that their object has been at
tained. Aguinaldo professed entire
ignorance of the autonomous system in
vogue in the British colonies, of pro
tectorates and of American, autonomy.
He said be was unable to understand
the idea, and only understood "ab
solute independence." Personally he
believed a protectorate for the Philip
pine islands was unnecessary, but he
feared that the people would be disap
pointed in this. He had not studied
I political economy and knew nothing
about the various formsof government.
He inquired whether Australia was an
American colony, and said he had
never heard of a Malay protectorate.
Continuing, the insurgent leader
said theie was no need of protection
for the Philippine isiynds. because the
Filipinos were able to cope with any
army. He admitted that he had never
soen a foieign army, with the eicep-
i j tion of the garrisons at Hong Kong and
Mngapore, ami nc nau never seen luese
troops on parade.
Aguinaldo declined p discuss the
American army and protested his un
dying gratitude to the Amerioans.
lie said they had ooine to the Philip
pines to right the Spaniards only, and
now that they had finished the tusk, it
wg to be expected that they would re-
turn to America. He was unwilling
to believe that the Americans would
demand a reward for an act of human
ity, and he declined to admit the neces
sity of a quid pro quo.
The Filipino leader expressed him
self confident that the newly founded
government would build a navy ulti
mately. In the meantime he said,
the great nations should protect and
aid any young nation, instead of grab
bing her torritoiies. if the Americans
should refuse to withdraw, the national
assembly, he said, must decide the
policy to be pursued a policy which
he declined to forecast.
Fuither conversation was prevented
by the strains of a brass baud, but
Goneial Aguinaldo was interviewed
also by a doaen American journalists.

people besiged the house, of General
Torsi today, demanding that the troops
which arrived here yesterday from San
tiago de Cuba on board the Spanish
steamer Leon XII be- immediately
landed. They proceeded to the quay,
cheering tbe troops, and were with dif
ficulty dispersed by the soldiers of tbe
garrison. Afterwards a crowd of about
1,500 returned to the quay, and when
they saw the soldiers landing barefoot
ed and nearly naked, they became in
furiated and surrounded General Tor
al'a house, hissing and stoning the
building. Eventually, the Spanish
general succeeded in escaping to the
Leon XIII. On learning this, the mob
gathered on tbe dock and stoned the
steamer for half an hour. The Leon
waa obliged to leave the place wheie
she was anchored.
Five steamers are ready to transport
the returning Spanish soldiers and civil
officers, with the archives and muni
tions of war from Cuba, but it is be
lieved it will take tout - months and
cost 80,000,000 pesetas to bring the
troops back to Spain.

Tale Not Half Told.
Kingston, Jamaica, Sept. 19. The
recent hurricane was undoubtedly the
woist visitation of the kind exper
ienced by the West Indies during tho
century. Two hurrioanes swept along
the island chain from Barbadoes west
ward to St. Vincent, and thence north
west to St. Kitts, where it was last
heard from. ' Barbadoes suffered mostly
from the rain, which destroyed orops
and roads as it did at St. Lucia and
other islands, while tbe center of the
storm swept over St Vincent and
Guadaloupe. Details received from St.
Vincent show that great destruction of ,
life and- property took place there. .
