PEACE PROTOCOL

sible for all of its acts or promises, and
it is probable that our government
would not concern itself as to what
further internal steps would be neces-
sary to satisfy the sticklers for con-
stitutionaI observance in Spain.
If it should appear later that the Cor
ties should undertake to undo the work
so far accomplished between the two
governments of course the government
of Spain would be held responsible for
that result, but as it is presumable
that the United States military forces
by that time would be in possession OF
Cuba, Porto Rico and Manila. internal
commotion in Spain need not give us
any further concern.
The formal agreement which is to
bind the United States and Spain to
enter upon negotiations of a treaty of
peace was prepared by Mr.. Adec, sec
ond assistant secretary of state, the
points to be included having been pre-
viously agreed upon between the Pres
ident. Secretary Day and M. Cambon.
Some difficulty was found in the task
as it was deemed essential to cover
every point with such felicity Of en-
preston as to leave no possible cha3c"
for a misunderstanding between the
parties hereafter While this import
ant diplomatic function by Mr.. Adce
was in progress. Secretary Day re-
licvcd the situation by making his
statement. as follows:
I'VE have agreed upon protocol
proposed terms for the ne
gotiations Of a treaty of peace, includ-
lug the evacuation of Cuba and Porto
Rico, and it is expected that this pro-
tocul will be executed
This was the first admission that the
two governments at last had pract cal
~ come together on the basis Of peace.
1t was intimatcd that what remained
to be accomplished was purely formal
in character and no doubt was enter
tanned that the signatures required
would be attached in due time.
What that due time was, was not ex-
planned. but it was fully understood
that it meant only such delay as would
be required for the careful preparation
of the documents to be signed ana for
the reception by the French amhasSd-
dor Of express authority to sign this
particular paper in behalf of the Span
ish government.
