Long conference Over the Philip
pines Questionable Conditions
Associated Press Dispatch
WASHINGTON, July 30-After a day of
anxious deiiberation and important consul
tations, the reply of the United State gov
eminent to the Spanish overture for peace
was this afternoon at last placed in the
hands of M. Cambon, the French ambassa-
dor, to be by him transmitted to the gov
eminent of Spain. 1t was 4:30 o'clock this
afternoon before the minister received the
answer, and as it makes about LOO words
in all, and must be reduced to the diplo-
matte Clip r and then transmitted by cable,
the Mah authorities probably will not re-
ceive it until some time tomorrow, Sun
day.
At 1880 o'clock this morning, in accord
ance with the agreement reached yesterday,
the members of the Cabinet began to as
semble at the White House, but it was near
" IL o'clock before they were all present
and ready to resume their discussion at the
point where it was interrupted yesterday by
adjournment. Secretary Day had prepared
a draft of the answer, based on the express
sons of his colleagues in the Cabinet yes
terday, and it was expected that only a
short time would be consumed in going over
out otherwise, however. Probably over
night new factors had suggested themselves,
or fresh influences had been brought to bear
for the Cabinet was soon engaged in an an
mated discussion of the Philippine islands
settlement.
On the other points of the answer there
was no disagree ment, and these propositions
were ratified as they stood yesterday-name-
w Cuba TO be freed: Porto Rico to be ceded
to the United States; one of the Ladrone

Commemorative Postage stamps.

f1dIptI WtthIys
Are we to have no issue Of special postage
stamps to celebrate our Spanish war; Il IS
certainly bigger thing than the Omaha
fair, and is costing very much more money,
for which we shall have much less TO show.
To be sure we may have the Philippines
to show for our disbursements, and maybe
Porto Rico. but very many citizens look
gloomily at the Philippines. and regard
them as a good deal worse than nothing;
and when we take Porto Rico all Europ9
will declare our war was war OF coys-
quest and not of humanity. Let's have the
stamps and not the Philippines. The stamps
will cost less, be far less troublesome, ana
it will be easier to distribute them so that
each citizen may have at least one. There
may be enough of the Philippines TO 50
around, but that is uncertain, though
geographers aver that there Is an immense
number of them.
