TALK OF PEACE.
Worry Many Rumo-s With Little Founda-
ton.

| Washington, July 26-There is reason
to believe at last the initial steps havs
been taken for opening negotiations for
peace. At this moment it is possible to
learn none of the details of the project nor
even to obtain official confirmation.
Secretary Day stated today that there
had been no change in the peace outlook
and that as far as he knew the admins
tratlon mad no information of the reported
peace note which Spain is quoted as
| framing. lie said there bad been no over
lures for peace brought to his attention
and said In general way that he knew
OF no development anent the peace talk
Berlin, July 26.-It is semi-officially
announced chat there IS no foundation for
the report that DR.. Won Holleben, the
German mbassador at Washington, has
presented to President Mckinley a per.
sonal letter from Emperor William.
Washington, July 26.-The repeated
statements from the Vatican of what pur.
ports to be terms of peace acceptable to
both the United States and Spain Is set
down here as one of the many 'feelers'
that have been thrown ont within the
past two weeks, probably to test public
feeling in the United States, primarily,
and seoondarily to break slowly to the
masses of the Spanish people the realizs-
tion of their complete defeat, something
they ara not aware of because Of the
efforts put forth by the Spanish govern
Inent to suppress or pevert the news of
actual events
1t is suspected here that the conditions
named-the annexation to the United
States Of Cuba and Porto Rico and the
relinquishment to Spain of the Philip
pines, represent What may besnow looked
upon as the maximum concessions that
Spain is willing to make. The Spanish
maximum is very far fellow the Ameri-
can minimum. Still there must be some
s sGa,, points for negotiations that
therefore the publication of the various
'feelers" is deprecated by our govern
ment, though so far it can be positively
asserted that they have no body of fact,
at least on this side OF the Atlantic.
