WATSON'S SQUADRON
 DETACHED

WASHINGTON, July 7.-The Presi- dent called a council of war to-day at the White House, the purpose being to review the situation and learn exactly what the present conditions are and what changes, if any, should be made in the plans for the future conduct of the war According to one of the mem bers present it was decided to abide by the plans already laid, at least as to the general conduct of the campaign.
 Confirmation seemed to have been given to the statement later in the day, when, after a conference with the mem- bers of the War Board, Secretary Long announced that he had ordered Ad
 miral Sampson to detach from his own command immediately the vessels to be embraced in Commodore Watson's eastern squadron and to direct the commodore to proceed on his mission.
 The vessels of the squadron will not be the same as those originally selected, for the reason probably that the recent engagement with Cervera's squadron necessitated some changes. The new eastern squadron will consist of the battle-ships Iowa and Oregon, the pro-

Willetts Point; D of the Fourth Artil- lery, at Fort McHenry, Md, and H and K of the Second Artillery, at Fort Adams and elsewhere in Rhode Island.
 Advices received here this morning from General Shafter announce that a number of high Spanish officials are de- serting across the lines at Santiago into the American camp. This act is re- garded here as highly significant of an early surrender.
 The War Department admitted for the first time to-day that two expedi- tions one on the Florida and another on the Fanita. had successfully pre- ceeded from Florida ports to points in central and western Cuba, where large quantities of arms and supplies were landed for General Gomez command This is the first time that arms have got to Gomez and his men in the west ern sections, as the first expedition equipped Garcia and his men around Santiago. The Florida and Fanita left some time ago, but their movements were guarded with the greatest care in order that premature publication might not jeopardize the safety of those on board as well as the delivery of the guns. The time of danger is now passed, however, and the full stock of guns, ammunition and supplies is in the hands of General Gomez troops.

WILL SUE
 FOR PEACE
 THIS WEEK

NEW YORK, July 7.-The Washing ton correspondent of the Herald tele- graphs:
 Will peace come with the fall of San tiago? The administration officials are hopeful and some of them are confident that it will. This hope is based on one important bit of information which came to Washington to-day in the fol- lowing official dispatch to the Secretary of the Navy from Lieutenant Colonel Wells, United States naval attache at London:
 Have reliable information Spain will enter into peace negotiations this week. Campos probably Prime Minister
 Lieutenant Colonel Wells sources of information as to what is going on in Spain have hitherto been so re- liable that officials of the administra- tion are hopeful that his dispatch will be borne out by events. It is believed that the sending of Commodore Wat sons squadron to Spain and to pursue Admiral Camara will be one of the most effective agencies in bringing about peace.
 No third nation will be consulted as to the terms of peace. I can say on the highest authority that the admin iStration is determined on this point and will not say that any third nation sha4A have word to say as to the terms on which peace Is to be declared. The treaty will be negotiated between the United States and Spain and between them alone, and the wishes of any other nation as to what shall be done with regard to Porto Rico or the Philip pines or any other territory the United States may take from Spain before the treaty is negotiated will not be con- suited.
 It is feared some effort might be made to interfere in the Philippines. l can say that it is the determination of the administration not to permit any such interference and to resist it to the furthest extent.
 MADRID, July "A Spanish Cabi- net Minister is quoted in an interview as saying that the present Government of Spain will devote itself solely to the defense of the Spanish coasts, and titat if negotiations for peace must be opened, they will have to be conducted by another Government.
 The Government has received a tele- gram from Admiral Cervera, announce ing the death of Admiral Villamel, W ho was in command of the Spanish tor pedo-boat squadron at Santiago, and the suicide of Captain LaZaga, con- mander of the Infanta Maria Teresa.
 A Minister, after the Cabinet meet ing to-day, declared that if Admiral Cervera had succeeded in escaping the Spaniards would have sued for peace But, he added, in view of the destruc- tion of the Spanish fleet, the war must be continued, lest Spain be accused of cowardice or fear.
 Dispatches received here from officia, sources at Havana announce that the people are enthusiastic there to con- tinue the war.
 LONDON, July 1.-The newspapers throughout Europe are urging Spain to sue for peace. It is generally re- cognized that Senor Sagasta's Cabinet will shortly be superseded. The diff ficulty in the way of peace is the army, which is anxious to retrieve the failure of the navy.

 MOST TRAGIC DEATH

 Charge.

OFF JUARAGUA, July (via Kingston, Jamaica, July 6.-The incidents attending the death of Lieutenant Ord, son of the late General E. o. c. Ord. were dramatic. He was an aid on the staff of General Hawkins, and throughout the day of the battle was active and energetic in getting the troops up the line. He was right in the front rank when the Sixth Thir- teenth, Twenty-fourth and Sixteenth regiments made their desperate charge on San Juan hill, and was one of the first officers to reach the summit.
 Just as he was passing the brow of the hill he saw a Spaniard lying on the ground and. pointing to him, he said. "Take care of that man."
