IGNORANT OF SURRENDER
Spanish Minister of War Has Little to
Say-The Council Discussing the
Peace Commission.

Madrid Aug. 16.-1O p. m.--Lieut. Gen
Correa. minister of war, declares that he
has received no despatch from Gen. Jau-
denes relative to the surrender of Manila;
and that he only knows semi Officially that
Gen. Augustin has arrived at Hong Kong.
To1day's cabinet council was almost ex-
cusively occupied in considering the de-
tails of the repatriation of the troops. The
question of convoking the Cortes was post
pened until the next meeting of the cabi-
net. The council to-day also discussed
the appointment of a peace commission.
Capt. Aunon, the minister of marine says
that the United States government has
expressed a desire that the commission
shall be composed of the most important
men in diplomatic and political circles.
Duke Almodovar De Rio. the foreign
minister, denies that he is opposed to the
nomination of Senior Moret minister of
the colonies in the preceding cabinet as
one of the commissioners. The foreign
minister adds that he could not be hostile
TO a nomination which had not yet been
proposed.
1t is asserted in well informed quarters
tonight that Senior Sagasta will provoke
a .risis over the question of convokng
the Cortes, on which the ministers still
disagree
The Italian ambassador, on behalf Of his
government, has expressed to Spain his
satisfaction aver the cessation of HOSTILE
ties and the earnest wish that after hav-
ing fought with honor, Spain may enjoy
the blessings of peace.
