Relief That Spain VIII Combat Cess
ion of Puerto Rico-Prefers
Loss in the Philippines.

London, July 3O.-The Madrid cor
respondent of the Daily Mail says:
The Spanish government viii combat
to the last against a cession of Puerto
Rico to the United States. 1t would
much rather sacrifice one Of the Phil
ippine islands. contending that Puerto
Rico has always been loyal and out
side the scope Of the war.
London, July 30.-A special dispatch
from Madrid says:
Though It Is not likely that the govern
ment will decide to prolong the war be-
cause Of Puerto Rico. considerable feel
ing is manifested, and every possible dip
lomattc effort viii be made to retain it.
Apparently there is little objection TO ced-
ing a coaing station in the Philippines
provided Spanish sovereignty is respected
in the island, which, in the opinion Of the
government and official circles generally,
will afford compensation in commerce for
the loss Of the Antilles. besides procuring
occupation for the West Indian army IN
reestabIishing Spanish rule. The Amer
lean reply is still anXiously awaited.
Judging from press opinions anything be-
yond the CesSion of Cuba will be considered
harsh and unjust. This is the unanimous
feeling among even the strongest advocates
of peace. The people are beginning to real
lie that peace will mean almost 4 total
loss of colonies. and looking to the deli
cate and difficult position Of the queen
regent, great care is still necessary to in
duce the nation to accept the terms. Ac-
cording to Ii Liberal, the government
would not allow even the loss Of some OF
the Philippines TO hinder the conclusion Of
the country would endorse sending an
army Of $4,000 men to.crush the rebellion"

The President Makes an Official statement
of the Terms of Peace Recently
Given to Spain.

Washington, Aug. 2.-The following
is an official statement given out by
authority of the president today as to
the terms of peace offered by the
United States.
In order to remove any misapprehen-
sion in regard to the negotiations as
to peace between the United States
and Spain, it is deemed proper to say
that the terms offered by the United
States to Spain in the note handed to
the French AMBASSADOR on Saturday
last are in substance as follows:
The president does not now put for
ward claim for pecuniary indemnity,
but requires the REIMBURSEMENT of all
claim of sovereignty over or title to
the island of Cuba, as well as the i'm
mediate evacuation by Spain of the
island; the cession to the United States
and immediate evacuation of Porto
Rico and other islands under Spanish
sovereignty in the West Indies and the
like cession of an island in the La
drones.
The United States will occupy and
hold the city, bay and harbor of Ma
nilla, pending the conclusion of trea-
tv of peace, which shall determine the
control disposition and government of
the Philippines. If these terms are
accepted by Spain in their entirety it
is stated that commissioners will tie
named by the United States to meet
commissioners on the part of Spain
for the purpose of concluding treaty
of peace on the basis above indicated.

AN EXTRA SESSION.
President Mckinley VIII Cali Com
grcss Together as Soon as Peace
Terms Are Accepted.
Washington, Aug. 2.-The Post says:

Washington, Aug. 2.-Ihe PoSt says:
president Mckinley will call an extra
session of both houses Of congress as soon
as Spain accepts the terms Of peace Of
fered by the United States. 1t has always
been understood that the senate would be
convened as soon as the treaty Of peace
was ready to be acted upon by that body.
The attention Of the president has been
called, however, to a situation which makes
the assembling of the entire congress nee
essary. This situat ton can be explained IN
a few words Under the law which pro-
vides for the raising of the volunteer army
that army goes out of existence soon as
the war ceases. When this law was framed
It was not for a moment supposed that
after the war had ended there would be any
necessity of keeping the army intact. Inc
developments Of the war make it very eVl-
dent that instead of sending the army
back to civil life fully 0eJ0 men vii. con-
t;nue to be needed. 1t is the present In
tention TO distribute 70 less than oU,Q0o
soldiers throughout Cuba, with $1,000 In the
Philippines and probably 10000 in Puerto
Rico. Under the law, as soon is hostllI-
ties cease, the volunteer army is dIsbanded
and the regular army goes back to its peace
footing, thus leaving only 1900 men IN the
service This is a total far too small for
the work that viii be required. Conse-
uuently the aid Of congress Will be needed
to frame new laws which VIII keep an ade-
quate army for garrison purposes
nm addition to this laws must be passed
10 meet the new requirements of govern
ment in the Philippines and Puerto Rico.
The president IS naturally aYerse TO cali
ing congress together during the hot
weather, and ii may be decided that the
war Is not ended until the senate has rati-
lied the treaty Of peace. In this case con-
aress win not meet until the first or middle
Of September. as Il will take Al least a
month or six weeks for the full details

PLAN NOT CHANGED.
The Hawaiian Commission to sail
for Honolulu About Au-
gust 10.

Washington, July Ex-senator Nor
gan, Of Alabama, member Of the
Hawaiian annexation commission. saw
President Mckinley Thursday after
noon and suggested to him the wisdom
OF delaying the departure and work
of the commission until about October
in view Of the existing Spanish
American situation, and the desira-
5;lity Of adjudication first OF matters
connected with Hawaii's land laws.
The president, however, thought thar
it was best TO proceed with the i'm
portant work at once and accordingly
The present plan Of the commission 70
sail from san Francisco on August 10
remains unchanged. The president in
the course Of the conference expressed
himself as highly pleased over the en-
thusfastic reception OF the news Of the
annexation in the islands.
