Tho Spaniards appear to ho in no great rush to leave Cuba, and the gov ernment has been nrved to take vigor ous measures to accelerate their move ments.

Tho boundary dispute between Chile and Argentina seems likely to develop into a great South American conflagra tion. It is belie veil, as a foundation, that flolliva has signed a secret treaty with Argentina to make common cause against Chile. In case of war, how ever, Peru would cheokmatQv Bolivia, leaving Argentina to the care of Chile. This attitude of fern is said to bo due to tho fact that Chile has wiped oft 10,000,000 from the ransom for the provinces lotainod by the protocol. Chile is now completing her naval and miliary preparations for a hostile cli max to the negotiations with Argen tina.

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.

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.

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.

"'". is sn extremely plain room, adorned only with some religious pictures. The insurgent leader was in evening trees, according to the Spanish custom, 'he others wore ordinary costumes.

A .Spanish delegate f ug- r e.l iL.i I : .A 1 aI.. ' 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. A Spaniard, supposed to be an officer, ununiformed, traversed the town, sneering at and denouncing tbe princi ples of the Filipinos. On his resent ing a friendly remonstrance, he was placet! under arrest Several Filipinos assured the cone ipondent that they have personally witnessed honible tortures at Iloilo; the feet of natives held to a caudle flame for hours, electric currents ap plied to the most sensitive parts of the body and various unuumeable atrocities all intended to . extort confession.
