Thus surrendered to our forces about 23,500 Spanish troops, of whom about 11,000 had been in the garrison of Santiago, the others having been stationed in garrisons outside of the city, but belonging to the Division of Santiago.  With them were also surrendered 100 cannon, 18 machine guns and over 25,000 rifles.  The troops were all sent back to Spain in vessels of their own nation and flying their own flag.  We had lost in battles with them before the surrender 23 officers killed and 237 men; and 100 officers and 1,332 men wounded.
