The bids of the several companies were considered, that of the Spanish company being finally accepted, as, in all respects, it was regarded as the best made. On the basis of 24,0:)0 enlisted men and 1,000 officers, it will cost the government 9535,000 to transport the prisoners. The ships will fly the colors of Spain and will be mauued, probably entirely, by Spanish crews. It is remarked aa one of the curious developments of the war that the United States government should enter into a friendly contract with a company many of whose vessels are auxiliaries to the Spanish navy, ami some of which have been captured or destroyed by the navy of the United States. Trans-Atlant- ic DissutisUad C'lilians Must Walt. Washington, July 21. A member of the cabinet, speaking about the unfortunate attitude of the Cubans at Santiago, said he feared that it would take time tocorrect the misaprehension of the Cuban insurgent that the United States proposed to erect a minority government wherever the United .Htates.forces overcame the Spaniards. Cuba, this gentleman said, would have to read and absorb the intent of the presidents message and abide by it if the people hoped or expected to see real peace in a short time. If the president's advice was adopted there was no reason why every man in Cuba withithe protection of the military., authorities of the UnitedT States should not have the freest possible opportunity to to prosper and they might ns well make up their minds that they were not to have an opportunity to act unjustly towards their former enemies.
