Confirmation From London

the principal OF the American demands,
but the acceptance will not be made public
until inquiries to Washington on matters Of
detail have been settled, thus rounding m
the preliminary basis.
The Madrid correspondent of the Daily

the nature of the negotiations requires the
greatest secrecy and that their success will
depend upon the observance of the most alb
solute reserve here. Official silence, there

WASHINGTON. Aug. 2-Shortly before
midnight Secretary Alger, as he left the
White House after a conference with the
the president said the administration ha d
received no official information that the
Madrid governme mt had accepted the terms
of peace proposed by the United States.
Unoff.cially the president had been in
formed that the Spanish ministry had ac-
cepted the terms of this country for a ces-
sation of the war. The unofficial news
reached the president in the form not only
of press dispatches. but of a private dis
patch from constitutional agents of the
United States.
While this government has strong rea-
sons for believing that its terms of peace
have been agreed to by the Madrid govern
ment, the president is taking nothing for
granted. Arrangements for pressing the
war 10 successful conclusion are going
forward precisely as If no negotiations for
peace were in progress. A a conference
participated in by the president Secretary
Alger and Adjutant General Corbin a. the
executive mansion tonight, a final decision
was reached as to constitution of the pro-
visional corps of Porto Rico to be COM
manded by General Wade The regiments
which are to compose the corps were de-
cided upon, and will be designated in a
general order to be issued probably tomor-
rom. Secretary Alger said the corps might
be en- route to Porto Rico within a week.
