1t might be supposed from the tenor
of the European cable news, that nego-
tiations for peace between the U. S.
and Spain were under way. Such is not
the case. There have been no Degotia-
tions, in fact no word from Spain on
the subject. This government has had
an ample sufficiency of negotiating with
Spain, and is not likely to countenance
any in CONF ection with peace. There
will be no need for any. When Spain
thinks she has been thrashed suffi-
ciently, she can obtain our terms of
peace by asking for them. As they
will not be deviated from, there will be
no occasion for any negotiations: the
terms must be either accepted or re-
iected at once. The statement that
President Mckinley had told the tern 6
of peace 10 European diplomat, in
order that he might make them known
to Spain, was bare-faced lie, with not
even probable foundation. It is not
customary for the victorious country to
offer terms Of peace before they are
asked for, and any statement that
President Mckinley has done SO, or
that he intends doing SO, may be put
down as manufactured.
