A WARNING TO SPAIN.
"Only by Prompt Action Can She Hope
to Prevent the Fruition of Ameri-
can Imperial POlicY.n

London, July 29.-The Berlin corre-
spondent of The Times says: The
terms Of peace which America i'm
poses occasion surprise here, as being
much too hard The National Gazette
remarks that the United States has
not won victory signal enough to
warrant such hard terms and expresses
the opinion that the prospects of peace
are, in consequence gloomy.
The Times, commenting editorially
upon the suggestion Of the National
Gazette that the United States has not
won a victory signal enough to war
rant the hard terms they would inn
pose says: This suggestion from
would-be friends of Spain merely shows
that these critics entirely fail to grasr
the military significance Of America
sea power. Only by prompt anC
straightforward dealings with Presi
dent Mckinley can Spain hope to pre-
vent the fruition of American imperia
policy in the Pacific, the advantages OF
which even peace loving, moderate
Americans cannot ignore"

The Government Delayed the Peace
Proposals on Account of Conflicting
Reports as to the Probable Demands
of President Mckinley.
London. July ga special dispatch
from Madrid says: The government
does not conceal that It hesitated for
some days to go beyond an unofficial
exploration at Washington, because the
diplomatic agents employed to make
the soundlngs gave conflicting accounts
of President McKinley's disposition.
One represented him as eager to termi-
nate the war on moderate conditions. .
the other, that the most onerous con-
ditions would be imposed, so much so
that the Madrid government thought
II useless to sue officially.
When, however It was seen that the
American war preparations continued,
Duke Almodovar de Rio, minister of
foreign affairs, was instructed to send
the note. The cabinet met Wednesday
evening to deliberate as to the best
means and channel of negotiation.
Paris and London were both discussed.
No decision was arrived at, but a ma
jority favored sending Senior Moret,
former minister of the colonies, on a
special mission to London to negotiate
the treaty of peace with Ambassador
Hay.
official feeling favors direct nego-
tiations, without interference from out
siders. even with regard to the Philip
pines. There is little doubt that If
President McKinley's reply proves an
acceptable basis the negotiations will
not be protracted since Spain, for
many reasons, is desirous of a speedy
settlement, and not least so because
at the present moment public opinion
is calm.

discomfort, and none at all If Spain
