De Lome aud Olncy Confer.

WASHINGTON. ID. C.. Dec. D.-The
Star this afternoon says: There were no
developments in official circles to-day. IN
Cuban affairs. Although 1t IS at least
premature to say that Senior Canoyas, the
Spanish Premier. has formally accepted
the alleged tender OF the United states
Government TO use its good Offices foT
the rc-cstablishment OF peace In CUBA
there is no question that negotiations to
that end are I'm progress between Secrs-
tary Olney and Senior De LONE. tho
Spanish Minister here. They have had
several conferences since the adoption
OF the Cameron resolution for the recog-
milton of Cuban independence by the Sen
ate Committee on Foreign Relations.
Their negotiations have been purely tenta-
tive, however. and certainly have not
reached a stage that IS binding on either
government. Such a contamination. IL IS
said. will depend altogether upon the fu-
ture development Of the situation.
