WOULD DISSOLVE THE GOVERNMENT OF INSURGENTS Cuban Soldiers Favor Hist, is now ten hours overdue. Fears are entertained.for her safety.

The address in part is as follows: The Cubans accepted the asistance of | America, although not knowing ‘exactly what wene the Afmerican pims, Just they would have accepted help from an country in their fignt against Spain. As the contest progressed the Cubans in the fleld were gratified to hear of ‘a.solemn | declaration by the United States Cons -garding the intentions of the | ernment and the ‘path it | the Spanish-American | help her that placed jcan Go d follow in Am woul War. The Americans came to our compel Spain to relinquish creignty over Cuba, in order Cubans themsel ‘might be promptly as possibie in p Jiland, Inight assume the administration | of its affairs and have a government of | its own. Therefore, the Cubans agreed to operate with the Americans, to obey the | orders issued by American generals and | to help in all possible ways to establish | & Cuban Government when the Americans | took possession. Though America did not | recognize the Government of the Cubans | it was well understood that the Cubans would not on that account abandon their | organization, but that, on the contrary, | the time would come Wwhen such recogni- | tion would be granted. Indeed, it Was a: serted to our Cuban representatives by one of the most distinguished members of the United States Government, and also by the members of the United States Senate; that in order to do away with any | gbstacle that might hinder the Unitec States in_going into the fight for’ the cause of Cuban independence, recognition of a Cuban Government must come later. Nevertheless, it has not been passible to | establish _direct relations between the Cuban and American governments for ! the trangaction of the public business, al- though the general character of our rela- | tions throughout the war was friendly. But we have now reached a time when, even more than in the days of fighting, | it is incumbént upon all Cubans to show | true patriotism, and while making every | expression of gratitude to America for | having given Cuba freedom and inde- | ¥nndnnca, to make prompt arrangements or paying. off the Cubans now in arms | and for getting the' country into workihg order. -— AMALGAMATION OF CIVIL AND MILITARY DEPARTMENTS | SANTIAGO DE CUBA, Oct. 3L.—Gen? eral Leonard Wood, commander of the Military Department of Santiago, re- turned to-day on board the United | States gunboat Hist from Manzanillo, where he had been to consult with Col- onel Pettit, Military, Governor of Man- zanillo, regarding the administration of the district under the latter’s control.

There were twenty men employed in the buflding, all of whom escaped, with the exception of two, who were slightly fnjured in the rush to get out. he exact cause of the explosion has not yet been determined, but a few min- previous to the trouble the engineer noticed that something wrong with the machinery, and he shut off steam and gave the danger signal. The building in which the explosion oc- curred was about 150 feet long by 75 feet ure was almost totally demolished and the machinery, including the engine and bollers, was destroyed.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn., Oct. 31.—The members of the War Investigating Committee started early to-day upon the investigation of the camp at this place with the hope of completing the entire work here so as to enable them to start for Washington to-night. They visited the general hospital and the Fourth Tennessee Regiment in a body and then separated to work in other commands, General McCook taking the Second Ohio and the Third Nortn Caro- lina, General Wilson and Captain How- ell the Sixth Ohio and First West Vir- ginia, and ex-Governors Beaver and Woodbury the Thirty-first Michigan !and Sixth Virginia. in most cases was dis- as it was made evi- dent from the beginning that there would be comparatively little to do, the camp being new and well located.

The commissioners manifested much delphia next day | interest in the report of an occurrence on Saturday. There were three deaths on that day among the colored patients of the North Carolina Regiment. Two of them were entirely unexpected by the surgeon in charge, as the men were not considered seriously ill. They, therefore, seemed of the opinion that these two had died from fright at see- ing their companions expire. There were complaints among the troops of the absence of stoves, and some of the soldiers confessed a desire to get home, but otherswise they were quite well | satisfied. | LEXINGTON, Ky., Oct. 31.—General Dodge, Colonel Sexton and Dr. Connor of the War Investigating Commission arrived here from Chattanooga to-day.

SAYS WHITES ARE TO BLAME OFFICIALS TOO LENIENT WITH THE REDSKINS. Permit Them to Live a Shiftless Life and to Indulge in Gambling and Barbaric Prac- tices. Special Dispatch to The Call. WASHINGTON, Oct. 31.—The major- ity of the annual reports of the Indian agents to the Commissioner of Indian Affairs are of an encouraging nature and indicate a progress generally along civilized lines. Some of them, however, are not so gratifying and make sur- prising statements. Unusual in an an- nual report is the following arraign- ment in that of B. M. Yearian, in charge of the Lemhi Agency, in Idaho: These Indians, as a tribe, are honest and peaceable and kindly disposed, but are about as degraded and ungrateful a set as one finds. They have been humor- ike spoiled children, want things thelr own way, and their condition, mode of living and barbaric practices would in- dicate that undue ‘concessions have been | made on the part of the agents. While some avail themselves of the opportunity of earning their living by civilized pur- sults, others lead a lazy, vagabond life. Théy are addicted to gambling, horse racing and dancing, and the influence of the so-called ‘“‘meédicine man' operates to the disadvantage of the tribe. Their real advancement has not been what it should, or what it was possible to have been under the circumstances. In the agent's annual report for 1882 on the Lemh{ Reservation, 1 find that twenty- pine Indlan families were engaged in farming. Fifteen yvears afterward I can report but forty-one following the agri- | cultural pursuits, an increase of twelve— not one convert a year. What wonderful progress! | " Morally, these Indians are practically | the same ‘as they were twenty years ago; financially, they are but little better off. | Aside from a few small farms, wagons | and farming implements, held by some of the more energetic and industrious, they | have comparatively nothing except a { great number of worthless ponies, if they | did not own_which they would not be any worse off. No horned stock is owned by them at all. | It would be unjust not to state that a few have farms and keep constantly at work trylng to establish for themsélves | comfortable homes. A majority, ho | ever, seem to content themselves with | their present condition and continue in | the old_channel, leading a life of idle- ness and degradation.

If there are no specific charges of fraud it is not because the feeling is one of sat- isfaction as to some of the colossal con- tracts that have been undertaken. In ome cases when bids were to be opened well-known public men, some . of United States Senators, have been: seen busying themselves suspiciously about matters, their connection with which the public would like to understand. insist upon asking just what called other prominent men so often to the department during the flood time of money-spending. It is a rumor that persistently thrusts itself forward that excessive sums have NEW ald's graphs: en paid for vessels where favoritism at work. In one case a vessel, para- d with age and infirmity, was bought at a high figure. When the price and par- ticulars were asked the public press was answered with insults. There has never been a clear under- standing as to the contract by which Spaniards were transported to Spain. That the contract was broken there seems to be little doubt, and that strong influences were at work about the mak- ing of that contract was apparent to those who were intelligently observant of the situation. f the charges are true there will be a rich field for the investi- gation commission in the history of the relations with the great transportation companies. _Probably the projected sec- ond Porto Rican expedition exploded by the round robin may open up possibilities. There was a mystery In the negotia- tions with transportation agents at which even representatives of the press stood baffled. The circuitous route taken for the troops has provoked suspicious criti- cism. All may be cleared up before the commission, but both these things, as well as the charges of Inferior clothing issued ‘?‘ the army, must have light thrown upon them. Already one sto? has been circulated about uniforms and methods of purchase, a Mr’ Bunburg being represented as charging that it was through the services of Abner McKinley that Bierman, Heidel- berg & Co. had obtalned important con- tracts. This was denled to-day by officials in the office of the quartermaster gencral. MADOO CRITICIZES THE WAR MANAGEMENT TRENTON, N. J, Oct. 31.—In the course of a speech at a Democratic mass meeting here to-night former As- sistant Secretary of the Navy McAdoo criticised the administration on the management of the war with Spain. He sald that the administration started off with the department lumbered with a lot of bureaucrats, and followed this by the appointment of sons of some- body and sons of nobody, without any military experience, to positions of the greatest / responsibility. Camps were selected in out-of-the-way places and in spots where proper sanitation could not be had, and all because the men who made the selections knew nothing about the needs or were playing into the hands of the railroads. The lives and health of the men were intrusted to incompetents and the President and the Secretary of War did nothing to remedy this evil that in some respects rivaled the Black Hole in Calcutta. All this, the speaker said, was because the War Department was controlled by politics. . v He complimented the manasement of the Navy Department. Referring to his successor, Colonel Roosevelt, he said he would deem it a privilege, if he were in Colonel Roosevelt’s place, to be able to tell the American people of the mis- management of the Santiago cam- paign. il Soldier Dies of Lockjaw.

Agent Jewell says: i The officers notnrlguoly use the funds | of the nation to purchase the votes of the | ignorant and illiterate Indians, who, on | election day, are always anxious.for a | small sum of money. The better class of Indians are not numerousenough to over- { come the power of these corrupt Indians, who have the funds of the nation with which to corrupt the masses and perpetu- | ate their corrupt dynasty. CALIFORNIA PIONEER DIES AT WASHINGTON General Joseph Rodman West Passes Away After a Long and Event- ful Life. WASHINGTON, Oct. 8L—General Jo- | seph Rodman West died in Washington | to-day, aged 76.

He went Yo | California in 1849, where he engaged in | commercial pursults, at the beginning of | the Civil War being proprietor of the San Francisco Prices Current. He entered the army as a lleutenane colonel of the First California Infantry, and saw service in New Mexico, Arkansas and the South- west; was appointed brigadier general in 1862 and mustered out of the service with the brevet rank of major general.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 31.—James Speyer of Messrs, Speyer & Co. of New York came to Washington to-day on matters connected with the Central Pacific Rall- road. He had an interview with Secre- tary Gage and Secretary Bliss, but was unable to see the Attorney General. These three Cabinet officers form a com- mittee charged with investigation of tne affairs of the Central Pacific, and will re- port on the same to Congress. The active work of putting data into shapé is being done by Assistant Secretary of the Treas- ury Vanderlip, but Mr. Vanderlip was out of the city to-day. Speyer & Co. repre- sent the interest of Collls P. Huntington in the Central Pacific, and have on hand a plan of reorganization by which they hope to relieve the Central Pacific of its ohfigallon! to the Government and place it on a sound financial footing. In_ this they are opposed by a number of stock- holders, particularly those residing abroad and in San Francisco.
