MADRID. Aug. 8, 1898 Cr1oon).-The COM
ferences between the political leaders on
the subject of the peace terms continue.
Senor Silvela, the Conservative leader,
acting in behalf of Senior CASTELAR,, the Re-
publican leader, who was prevented by
illness from being present, has conferred
with the Premier, Senor Sagasta, on the

in dealing with the United States saved

effort should be made to preserve Spanish
sovereignty over Porto Rico
Senor silvela added that he, personally,
did not favor any change Of policy.
The Liberal Moderate Republican,
today publishes an interview with Mar
shall Martinez de Campos. who is quoted
as saying:

that has happened in this war could
have been foreseen; but the most pessi-
mistic could never have imagined that
misfortunes would be so great-the de-
struction of Montejos and Cervera's 5
squadrons, the surrender of Santiago and
the rapid and unresisted occupation of
Porto Rico. No one could have imagined
it, even taking into consideration the su-
periority of the United States"
Neither the present Government nor any
other can change our situation. 1t would
be madness to think of rejecting Presi-
dent McKinley's conditions. The Liberal
party can bring about peace, but Sagasta
should not be alsed to sign it. Such a
course would not be prudent and another
