SAMPSON WANTED TO AFFIX HIS SIGNATURE, Claimed the Right to Sign the Arti- ticles of the Capitulation of Santiago. NEW YORK, July 26.—A Washington special to the Herald says: Concern- ing the report that General Shafter re- fused to permit Admiral Sampson to sign articles of capitulation at Santiago | until ordered to do so by the President, I am informed that neither General Shafter nor Admiral Sampson signed the document. There was, however, | some question raised about the pro priety of Admiral Sampson participat- ing in the negotiations for the surren- der of General Toral's forces. Indeed, I am told that Admiral Sampson rep- sented to General Shafter-that as a T ter of right he should be allowed to sign the articles of capitulation. At the time he made this request the papers had already been placed in the hands of Colonel John Jacob Astor to | bring to the United States and General Shafter found it impossible to comply with Admiral Sampson’s request even if he had desired to do so. He so in- formed Admiral Sampson, conveying the additional information that he had not ned the articles himself and that they were signed only by the commis- sioners appointed to agree upon the terms of surrender.

WASHINGTON, July The War Department feels that it has reason to be gratified with the results established under the first and second calls for troops by the President. The statement issued last night shows that practically all the States have supplied the quotas called for in these two calls. It is explained that the discrepancy in this statement and the one published a week ago, which caused so much criticism and put several iding Massachusetts, Neb: North Carolina in the unenviable posi- ion of having contributed only a por- tion of the troops called for, was ac- counted for by the fact that, owing to the failure to make prompt reports, these States wppeared to be deficient.

DIES FOR LOV 0F SAN DIEGO Invalid Prefers Suicide to Returning East. ENDS LIFE WITH A BULLET MILWAUKEE WOMAN’S TRAGIC LEAVE-TAKING. Daughter of Editor Aiken Kills Hel® self Rather Than Depart From the xretty City of the Southland. Special Dispatch to The Call. SAN DIEGO, July 26.—Mrs. Alice Aiken Bremer of Milwaukee, who ar- rived here six months ago for her health and since was a guest of the Horton House in this city, committed | sulcide in her room at the hotel last | night by shooting herself through the | head with a revolver, the bullet enter- ing the brain behind the right ear. She was about 39 years of age and of at- tractive appearance. Hugo Bremer, a retired dealer of Milwaukee, arrived here three weeks ago to join her. So far as known they were on good terms, but real estate | occupied separate rooms at the hotel. It is said the woman was attached to San Diego and was determined to remain here. Her husband came to endeavor by personal solicitation to get her to steadily refused his importunities until recently and they finally agreed to | leave for the East this morning. He would not leave without her and after a consultation last night she evidently decided to end it all by the sulcide route. She wrote a letter addressed to her husband, which she left on a tabl saying that she had concluded this was the best way to end her troubles. As nearly as can be ascertained Mrs. Bremer at about midnight laid down on her bed fully dressed and fired the fatal shot. The body will be cremated at her re- quest, made in the letter referred to. The Coroner’s jury this morning evi- dently concluded at its first session that the cause of death was not en- | tirely definite and ordered a posf mor- | tem examination to be made. During her six months' residence Mrs. Bremer had improved in health materially, her trouble having been nervousness and insomnia. She delighted with the place and its ficial effects. cheerful and made many friends. She made a specialty of the study of sea moss and plants and other forms of vegetable life, spending consideraable on the seashore making collec- Mrs. Bremer seemed less cheer- ful the past few days and made no se- cret of the fact that she regretted hav- ing to leave here for the East. There was nothing in her letter to her husband hinting of unpleasant re- lations between them. It merely stated that she had decided to take her life and to end her trouble, and asked that her body be cremated; that her jew- elry, except her wedding ring, be given to her sister. on her hand. Mrs. Bremer was a daughter of Edi- tor Aiken of the Evening Wisconsin of Milwaukee, one of the leading dailies of that State. She had been married fourteen years, but had no family. The revolver she used had been in her po- session many vears. The course of the bullet showed conclusively that the shot was self-inflicted. SHE POSSESSED WIDE SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE MILWAUKEE, July 26.—Mrs. Brem- er, who committed suicide in San Diego, was a daughter of A. J. Aiken, proprietor of the Evening Wisconsin in this city. Her maiden name was Alice Aiken. e had been In California some months, and latest advices received re- garding her health were to the effect that she was improving. Mr. Bremer left Milwaukee recently to visit his wife at San Diego, after wkich he in- tended to cross the Pacific for a trip to the Orient. Mrs. Bremer left Milwaukee in Jan- uary for the West. For vears she had been an earnest biological student, and had looked forward to the trip to the West to find and study certain species of seaweed. Her sclentific knowledge was wide, and extended to other branches, notably astronomy. In Milwaukee she was a member of the Woman's Club, the College En- dowment Association and the Ladles’ Art and Science Class. Last year in Massachusetts she read a paper on “Biolo * which attracted wide at- tention, and she had just accepted an invitation to read the same essay be- fore the Woman’s Club in San Diego.

W. 1., July 26).—The United States military expedition under the command of Major General Nelson A. Miles, commanding the army of the United States, which left Guantanamo Bay during the evening of Thursday last, July 21, was landed here success- fully to-day, after a skirmish between | a detachment of the Spanish troops and a crew of thirty belonging to the launch of the United States auxlllary gunboat Gloucester, formerly J. Plerpont Mor- | gan’s yacht Corsair. Forty Spaniards | were killed and no Americans were hurt. The troops were pushed forward promptly, in order to capture the rail- road leading to Ponce, which is only about ten miles east of this place. MADRID, July 26.—An officlal dis- patch from San Juan de Porto Rico confirms the report of an American landing at Puerto de Guanica. The Spaniards had one officer killed and three soldiers wounded.

WASHINGTON, July 26.—Secretary | Alger said to-night that the troops on transports for Cuba had already re-i celved orders to proceed to Guanica, | where General Miles has landed, in- | stead of going to the point first agreed | upon. | ST.

WASHINGTON, July 26.—The news of the landing of General Miles at Guanica, on the southwest shore of Porto Rico, came as a genuine surprise to the War Department. It had all been carefully planned that he was to make his landing at another point, as | remote as possible from the place | where he actually landed, so there was | little wonder that the officials received the first news of the landing with in- credulity, and even went to the length of supposing that the story had been put afloat in order to distract attention from the point which had been selected. Just why General Miles made this wide departure from the plans of the department is not known, but it is sup- posed that he had gathered some infor- mation since he left Siboney that in- duced him to make the change. The result, however, has been to perplex the department officials deeply and to considerably derange their carefully prepared programme for the remain- der of the expedition. It will now be necessary to intercept the sections of the expedition already at sea, heading for certain selected points on the coast of Porto Rico and to advise them of the change in the plans. It s another exhibition of the reli- ance placed by the Government in the dispatches of the Assoclated Press that it proceeded to act at once in the direc- tion indicated and to take steps to noti- fy the sections afloat without waliting for news from General Miles himself. General Wilson's brigade is now ap- proaching the island, being due there | to-day or to-morrow, and reinforce- | ments will follow at intervals of one or two days until the whole force of 30,000 men is landed, unless events con- | nected with the peace negotiations make it expedient to stop future move- ments. However, it is a matter for| congratulation to the War Depart- ment that General Miles has managed | to set foot on Porto Rico before the | first overtures for peace, and thus| to place the island in the same posi- | tion as Cuba and the Philippines, namely, as territory at least partially in the possession of the United States at the beginning of the negotiations.

La Puerta Guanica, the landing place chosen by General Miles for the expedition under his command, was a most apt selection, whether designed as a base of operations looking to the permanent occupation of the western part of the island of Porto Rico or for more instant and direct operations in connection with other expeditions against San Juan itself. After San Juan it is the best harbor on/ the whole coast, a landlocked expanse of water offering commodious anchorage for a large number of by the high hills on all sides except the south and southeast. Having long been the most important port on the island for the shipment of coffee, it is well provided with landing wharves and piers, proachable by small vessels and boats, besides having a number of large stone warehouses used for storing coffee,'etc., which will form a valuable adjunct to the commissary department of General Miles’ army.

The intervening country is high From Ponce a coast road, more or less practicable for moving troops and supply trains, runs by way of Adjuntas and Utuado to Arecibo, on the northern coast, a few miles to the east of which, at Barcelonita, a part of General Brooke’s command is expected to land within the next day or two.
