Spain Accepts Uncle Sam. Terms.

At meeting OF the Joint peace
commission Monday the Spanish com
missioners accepted the American
propositions. In their reply to the
demands Of the United States they
stated that the American propositions
are inadmissable on legal principles
and are not a proper compromise on
legal principles. On the Spanish
part all diplomatic resources are ex-
hausted and the Spanish commission
is now asked to accept or reject the
proposition. SPAN inspired by
reasons Of patriotism and humanity
and to avoid the horrors OF war, re-
signs herself to the power of the VIC
tor. She accepts the offered coudi-
tons in order to conclude treaty of
peace. ...
The American demands include the
acquisition of the whole Philippine
and Sulu groups for $2O,O0O,OOO, and
it is also understood that the United
States will purchase the Caroline
group. Span also gives up Cuba
and Porto Rico. The question of the
Cuban debt is left unsettled.
The next meeting Of the commits
sion will be held Wednesday when
the treaty will be submitted.

A TELLING COMPARISON.
How England Cares for Her Soldiers
and the Administration Neg
lects Ours.

AcCL6 OuEbs
While our commission is investigat.
ing the acknowledgement of the war by
Secretary Alger, the effects of which
obtrude on all sides, it may not be
uninteresting to note how England
wages war.
While our soldiers have been deci-
mated by disease, in the mobilization
camps, right in the very heart of civ
ilization, let us see how England
cares for her soldiers when she sends
them to war.
: While we have been Kidding this
continent of Spanish rule, England
has pushed $4,000 troops into Africa
under Gen. Kitchener.
The arrangements for the comfort
and healing Of the sick and wounded,
as described by eye witnesses, were
probably the most extensive and per-
feet that have been made in any
British expedition. and the best seen
on any field in modern times. That
all this should have occurred at the
very time when so much complaint
was being made at the short cominps
OF our own war dep 'rtment makes it
