LATEST WAR NEWS

The following statement was given out at |
the White House at the conclusion of Tues.
days cabinet meeting regarding the note
delivered TO NJ. Cambon by President Nc.
Kinley last Saturday and cabled 10 Spain
the same day:
ain order TO remove any misapprehension
In regard 10 the negotiations as 10 peace be.
tween the United States and Spain, it is
deemed proper TO say that the terms offered
by the United States to Spain in the note
handed 10 the French ambassador on Satur-
day last are in substance as follows:
"The President does not now put forward
any claim for pecuniary indemnity, but re-
quires the REIMBURSEMENT of all claim of
sovereignty over or title 10 the Island of
Cuba, as we'll as the immediate evacuation
by Spain of the island.
"The cession TO the United States and i'm.
mediate evacuation Of Porto Rico and other
islands under Spanish sovereignty in the
West Indies, and the like cession of an
island in the Ladrones.
"The United States will occupy and hold
the city, bay and harbor of Manila, pend
ing the conclusion of treaty Of peace which
shall determine the control, disposition and
government of the Philippines.
"If these terms are accepted by Spain in
their entirety, 1t is stated that commission
ers will be named by the United States to
meet commissioners on the part of Spain
for the purpose OF concluding treaty Of
peace on the basis above indicated"
A dispatch from San Juan to Madrid states
that 1000 Porto Rico volunteers have surren-
dered TO the American troops.
The board OF naval officers appointed by
Admiral Sampson to report upon the condi-
ton OF the Spanish ships which we're sunk
in the battle off Santiago on July found
three Of the ships riddled by five.inch shells.
The Brooklyn was the only American vessel
in the fight which had ive-inch guns This
fact shows that Commodore Schley's flag
shin was in the battle in all its stages from
start 10 finish The board reports that the
Maria Teresa and Cristobal Colon can be
| saved, the Vlzcaya and Oquendo will be
| abandoned, but their batteries and machin-
cry may be saved.
SPANS answer TO the peace terms of the
United States was presented at the White
House on Wednesday by NJ. Cambon, the
French ambassador. 1t is believed that
Spain does not accept all the terms offered,
but is ready to agree TO the main points as
proposed, and that an agreement will not
be long delayed.
Among the questions which, it is said,
remain TO be adjusted are the following:
Transportation of Spanish troops from
Cuba and Porto Rico
Disposal of the arms and ammunition in
Cuba and Porto Rico.
Details IS TO the probable course of the
United States in the Philippines.
Cession of Cuba to the United States
rather than any other form of surrender.
Pending the conclusion of the peace treaty
1t is said that the United States may be
bound to restrain the Philippine insurgents
from attacking Spaniards, as the insurgents
have been given arms and otherwise aided
| by this country.

SLOANE MAKES A DENIAL
Claims That He Was Incorrectly

Keep Him Cut of England

that he has been incorrectly quoted. The
letter is dated at Monte Carlo, and 81 Is:
Several DAYS ago there appeared in the
columns of the Herald what purportcd
to be an interview with me. 1t contai.led
50 many statements that are absolutely
incorrect that / think ! am Justified IN
calling Your attention to the matter.
II may say, III The first pia &c. that the
treatment / received in England, rom both
jockeys and trainers, WAS so courteous and
friendly that ii would have been worse than
:; breach OF goodtaste u make any criticism
upon them, even had any 10 ms Ike, which
is fas from being the case.
In the secona place, | never stated that
] had received offers 10 ride next seaion
either for Lord William Reresford or the
Prince OF Wales. Indeed, il is highly i'm
probable that J can ride "a England next
season, as my existing contracts IN 4 meri-a
seem likely tc lake up the whole ii uv
tine. Siou,d be able to arrange it,
may ride for Lord William Eeresford and
Nj. Pierre Lorillard, but this is 4 question
ti:a, ii is inpossibl, for me TO speak coa-
Edently ebout until have been to a mer;ca.
