the Spanish Government President Mckinley at the
White House Yesterday Afternoon.

place where he actually landed. Just
why General Miles made this wide
departure from the plans of the Depart
ment is not known. but it is supposed
that he gathered some information since
he left Siboney that induced him to
make the change. The result, however,
has been to perpleX the Department Of
fcials deeply and to considerably derange
their carefully prepared program for the
remainder of the expedition. 1t Will
now be necessary to intercept the see
tionS of the expedition already at
sea heading for a certain selected point
on the coast of Porto Rico and to advise
them of the change in the plans.
1t is another exhibition of the reliance
placed by the government in the dis
patches of the Associated Press that it
proceeded to act at once in the direction
indicated and to take steps to notify
the sections atoat without waiting for
news from General Miles himself. Tie

ton on the subject came from st. Thorn

to-day or tomorrow, and renforcements
will follow ut intervals of one or two
days until the whole force of thirty

connected with the peace negotiations
make it eXpedient to stop further move

graduation TO the War Department that
General Miles has managed to set foot on
Porto Rico before the first overtures for
peace and thus to place the island in
the same position as Cuba and the Phil

DEATH IN THE THICKETS.
The details to-day brought Il corrected
list from General Shafter Of his casual
ties but little else of interest. save n
short report from General Lawton tell-
ing of the difficulties of the fighting
before Santiago. Secretary Alger is dis
tressed at the number of missing carried
on the rolls and to-day telegraphed Gen
eral Shaftcr to hire all necessary help
and send men through the jungIes to
hunt up the remains of the poor fellows,
for there is no doubt llat missing in
this case means death unA II the cactus
or other brn5nes and an undiscovered
body.
The Havanese are still making desper
ate efforts to get supplies in through the
blockade and two steamers are reported
to have cleared Vera Cruz, Mexico,
loaded with food bent on reaching
Sagua at least. whence the supplies may

Navy Department will give the matter

NO EXTRA CABINET MEETING.


President Has Practically Decided to
Accept Offer to Open Negotiations.
Washington, II. c., July 26.-During
the late afternoon and evening the Presi-
dent conferred with most of the members
of his Cabinet and the Spanish PROPOSE
ton was thoroughly canvassed. Secre-
taries Day, Alger and Long were ut the
White House during the afternoon and
in the evening the President was joined
by Secretaries Bliss and Wilson and
Postmaster General Smith There was no
Cabinet meeting in the ordinary sense,
but these talks with individual members
served about the same purpose as for
NAL meeting. In case peace negotiations
are opened. the means by which they will
be carried on are not determined nor
have they been officially considered. 1t is
understood. however, that one means
likely to be proposed is to authorize di-
rect negotiations between Spain and this
country. Spain being represented hy
Senor Leon Castillo. the Spanish Am
bassador ut Paris and the United States
by General Horace Porter, our Ambassa-
dor to France.
This plan is quite tentative. however,
and it is rather doubtful whether the
United STATES Government would con
sent to have such important negotiations
removed far from Washington and con
Quoted in Il European capital where the
atmosphere might not be conducive to
forwarding the desires of this country.
Spain's peace proposal excited the
deepest interest throughout Washington,
and for the time being war news gave
way to animated discussion Of prospects
of peace. The move Of the French Am
bassador took the other members of the
corps completely by surprise. The con-
ference Of Secretaries Alger. Bliss and
Postmaster General Smith with the Pres
ident lasted until nearly midnight. AT its
conclusion Secretary Alger said that no
special Cabinet meeting had been called
for tomorrow and he saw no prospect Of
one. Probably no regular session Of the
Cabinet will be necessary for the PreSi-
dent to determine upon his answer to the
French Ambassador. In fact from what
was said by members of the Cabinet
who had consulted with the President
il seems he has practically determined to
accept the offer to open negotiations.
Nothing could be known about the terms
upon which the negotiations will he con
Quoted or proposals to he made until
there had been a further conference by
those having the matter in charge. Sec
retary Alger stated when he left the
White House that there would be no
change in the plan of campaign and the
war would go forward with vigor.

THE PHILIPPINE QUESTION.
1t is Likely to Be One Very Difficult
to Solve


London, July 26.-The London morn
ing papers agree that it will be impos-
sible for Spain to pay indemnity and that
it is improbable that the United States
VII demand money compensation. They
all concede that the Spanish flag has gone
forever from Cuba ad Parto Rico.
The question Of the future of the Phil
ippine Islands is universally admitted
as presenting grave difficulties, owing
to the impossblity of getting independ-
cnce. The general opinion is that the
United States will retain a coaling sta
ton and have representation islands.
The Daily News says:
1T would be an act of extreme gen
erosity to leave Spain in possession of
the Philippines. but generosity is often
not the best policy. If the Uited States
should be content with such a reward Of
its labors as would leave the Philippines
to Spain it would set the world an eX-
ample of conspicuous magnamty
The Daily Chronicle thinks that some
kind of international nr0tectorate over
the Philippines should be arranged.
The Daily Mail says;
I'VE hope President Mckinley will he
moderate. Cuba. Porto Rico and the
Philippines should be ample compensa-
ton without indemnify"
