tempt to create trouble.

One minister expressed the convic-
ton that official overtdres for peace

her services to Spain, and that Spain
has drawn up conditions for peace

forces involved in the capitulation at
Santiago will not be taken back to
Spain in American vessels unless there
is an official pledge for the safety of

he doubted if Spain wanted the pris-
oners brought back there, and
said that if transported in our own ves-

the Spanish representatives, Spain
would not refrain from Selling them.

be tackled by the commissioners ar

OF the matter as being of

TO Spain went, that, he said, was fully
understood and entirely approved. In
general, he regarded the situation as
highly satisfactory.
