NO PEACE YET.
There Is Hope Thai If Will Be
 Brought About This Week.

Washington, Aug. 10-The answer not entirely satisfactory to this gov ernment and further negotiations are in progress. The definite result prob ably is the complete acceptance, which is looked for by tomorrow night, pos sibly late today. The points on which the disagreementS rest are not known. That further concessions of the Span ish government to our demands are awaited is certain.
 A meeting was arranged between Secretary Day and the French amhas- sador at the state department to be held this morning to consider certain details of the Spanish reply left open from yesterdays conference at the White House. There is no reason to believe that the Spanish government will recede from certain conditions sought to be imposed yesterday, and that the result will be an agreement upon the terms of peace. The French embas sador, accompanied by M. Thle- baut, arrived at the state department today at II o'clock and after a con- ference of fifteen minutes with Secre- tary Bay the latters drove over to the White House to confer with the pres ident. Ambassador Cambon remained in the diplomatic room awaiting the secretary's return.
 Secretary Day at 1 o'clock today made the following statement to the Associated Press: We have agreed upon protocol embodying the pro- posed terms for the negotiation of a peace treaty, including the evacuation of Cuba and Porto Rico and it is ex- pected that the protocol will be exe- cuted."
 It can be stated that the terms are precisely those laid down by the pres ident in his original note a week ago.
 Members of the cabinet believe that by Friday morning at the latest, and probably before the definite peace out come will be assured beyond all doubt. At the White House it is understood that Ambassador Cambon would trans init to Spain today a cablegram stat ing that complete and immediate ac- ceptance of the terms imposed without reservation would be essential to ef- fecting peace under the present terms

PRIZES TURNED LOOSE.

Key West, Aug. 1O-Acting under orders from Washington, Commodore Remy has released the Norwegian steamers Aladdin and Bergen, recently captured by the gunboats Hawk and Viking while bound from Tampico to Vera Cruz. Mexico, for Sagua la Grande, Cuba. The ground for their release is that Sagua la Grande is not a blockaded port
 The auxiliary gunboat Hornet ar rived here this afternoon with the Spanish two masted schooner Silva Maria, captured while running from Batabano to the Isle of Pines for food. The Silva Maria carried six men, but no cargo. This afternoon Commodore Remy received orders from Washing ton to release the steamer Tabasuueno. captured by the gunboat Hawk while making for Sagua la Grande under a French flag

fvantages with the utmost vigor. For these reasons, it seems reasonable to conclude that but few days more will be allowed to pass before we know with entire definiteness whether the pending negotiations are to result in definite treaty of peace Old time peace negotiationsscannot be ac- cepted as a guide to the period re- quired for reaching a settlement in these days In such matters, the ocean cable reduces weeks to days; and another week may very possibly reveal the end of what is now going on between Washington and Madrid; nor can there be much question as to what that end will be.
 So far as my information enables me to judge, I conclude that the terms offered by the president will command the almost universal approval of the country. The evacuation of Cuba and Porto Rico by the Spanish forces and the surrender of their arms and fortified positions intact, with the ca pitulation of all our people ask: and that all is demanded, and nothing less will be accepted, including the exemption of Cuba from all debts
  The. responsibility we shall assume in Cuba will be in some respects oner- ous and in a sense unwelcome; but the people are prepared to assume them as an obligation to humanity and will perform the duties cheerful1y- and faithfully. The disposal of our acquisitions in the Philippines stands upon less definite footing than our in, hn Tn dition of affairs and the disposition of the people in these Pacific islands are as yet too imperfectly understood to admit of g. fnality or this question. Our government may be expected to protect the inhabitants from a con- tirrarce of Spanish wrongs in these colonies: but by wha; means and with what extent of acurisition of territory are matters or which the president apre ars to have reached TO mature conclusion. There seems to be reason for believing that the administration has ir contemplation the reservation of al least so much territory as may be needful for establishing a naval and military station of such strength as will command the respect of com peting nations for our fast growing
 
 wisdom. the president appears to have insisted that this question, with it's many complications. shall be left for the mature deliberations of commission. made up of representa- tlves of both governments. This is a prudent disposal Of this very difficult question: it is not likely that our own people will disapprove of it: and it certainly must be regarded as generous towards Spain.
 Now that the war is virtually at an end the prestige that this country has obtained. will give it glorious fu- ture. American pride will reign su- preme with our people backed by the highest government credit of any na- tion in the world because founded upon unlimited resources and the re- msrlatle brain power. skill. industry and vital force of the people No na- tion has ever made brilliant history quicker than this to enable it to de- nand at least position of equality in every respect, both on land and water, with the other great nations of the earth.

WORK or A MOB.
It DiSCriminated in Favor Of inc
 GuilfieSf.

St. Louis, Aug. 10.-A special to the says About midnight last night @ mob of about 800, men visited the county jail and took out four negroes implicated in the assassination of John T. Orr, on the night of July 30, and hanged them to the tramway of the Halpern saw mill, which stands about 100 yards in the rear of the jail The four persons hanged were Will San ders, the one who fired the shot that killed MT. Orr; Rilla Weaver. the mother of Sanders and a cook in the Orr household; Dennis Record, a hoodoc doctor and conjurer, who tried to poison Orr with boiled snake heads and Manse Castle, who volunteered to do the job, and transferred it to San ders. Rachael Morris, accused of be ing an accessory before the fact and Susie Jacobs, a negro woman access ory after the fact, have skipped out and their whereabouts are unknown to the officers. Had they been in jail they would undoubtedly have gone with the rest last night.
 Mrs Orr, wife of the murdered man was in the corridor of the jail last night when the mob entered. She had taken something with suicidal iD-- tent and will die. The leaders of the mob examined Mrs. Orr critically and passed her, but many of them favored taking her with the rest. Her deatb seems to be but a matter of a few hours If she recovers the mob will hang her,
