WASHINGTON, Aug. 5.-After a con.
ference at the White House with Sec.
retaries Day and Long, the president
had conference with Secretary Alger.
Secretary Long and Assistant Secretary
Of the Navy Allen, at which action was
taken for the prompt transportation OF
General Skaters army from Cuba to
Montauk Point, L. I. The conference
occupied couple Of hours and there
was an informal general presentation
Of the needs Of prompt action, and Of
the means at hand to effect it.
1t was finally concluded that there
were sufficient vessels OFF the coast
there now for the purpose. When the
meeting ended, it was officially stated
that the number Of vessels was ade.
quate for the removal Of the army.
The dispatch Of the troops, it is hoped,
accordingly, will begin at once.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 5.-The United
States government 10 now waiting to
hear again from Spain, and this time,
it is expected, the answer will be final.
Firmly but courteously the president
has declined the earnest appeal Of the
French ambassador to modify the
United States demands, except in
slight and comparatively unimportant
respects. There is no doubt that the
peace negotiations are progressing to
the entire satisfaction of the president
and the members Of the cabinet. A
statement to that effect was made by q
high official of the administration, who
expressed the belief that within a very
short time there would be complete
cessation Of hostilities. The conference

participated, was devoted almost en-.
tirely to discussion of details, which
are regarded by the president as unim-
portant, and hence the requests Of the
French ambassador for the most part
will be acceded to.
Will Probably Meat in Paris.
One Of these was THAI the commits
sion to be appointed to Aettle the terms
of peace shall meet outsihe the United
States and preferably in France. The
president sees no material objection to
granting this request, and it is said to
be practically settled that the confer
ence will be held in Paris. The Ma.
drid government, through M. Cambon,
propounded number Of questions as
as to the time when Spain would be
expected to evacuate Cuba, and the
territory to be ceded the United States,
and as to what provision would be
made by the United States to protect
the interests of Spanish subjects in
these islands while the evacuation was
in progress. M. Cambon was informed
upon all Of these points, presumably to
his satisfaction. There is one point,
however, which the Spanish author.
tiles, judging from their communica.
ton to their representative here, fail to
comprehend, and Secretary Days call
upon the ambassador was for the
purpose principally Of making per.
fectly clear this one point, which was
that the evacuation Of Cuba, Porto Rico
and one Of tho Ladrone islands to be
selected by the United States and the
permanent cession to this government
Of all these Islands except Cuba, was
made a condition precedent to all peace
negotiations. This very important
condition does not, it is said, seem to
be fully comprehended by the Madrid
authorities, and it was with the view
to setting the ambassador straight upon
this point that Secretary Day made his
call upon M. Cambon. The questions
upon which the Spanish government
have 80 far asked for additional infor.
nation are regarded by the admins
tration as perfectly legitimate and
proper, and, up to this time, nothing
has occurred to bring in question the
sincerity Of their motives. Under these
circumstances it is the purpose of the
president to deal with them in spirit
Of perfect fairness, and to make the
road to peace smooth for them as the
rights and dignity Of this government
will permit, and to this end. unimpor-
tant concessions will be readily granted.

SANTIAGO DE CUBA, Aug. 2.-(De-
layed in transmission )-Summoned by
Major General Shafter, a meeting was
held here at headquarters and in the
presence Of every commanding and
medical officer Of the Fifth army corps,
General Shafter read cable message
from Secretary Alger, ordering him, at
the solicitation of Surgeon General
Sternb berg, to move the army into the
interior, at San Luis, where it is
healthier.
AS result Of the conference, Gen.
eral Shafter will insist upon the imme-
diate withdrawal of the army north
within two weeks.
As an explanation of the situation,
the following letter from Colonel Theo.
dore Roosevelt, commanding the First
volunteer cavalry. TO General Shafter,
was handed by the latter to the CORE.
spondent here of the Associated Press.
for publication:
Major General Shafter.
SIR-In meeting of the general and
medical officers called by you at the
palace this morning, we were all, as
you know, unanimous in view of what
should be done with the army. To
keep us here, in the opinion Of every
officer commanding division or brig
ade. will simply involve the destruction
Of thousands. There is no possible
reason for not shipping practically the
entire command north. Yet fever
cases are very few in the cavalry divis-
ion where command one of the two
brigades, and not one true case of vel.
low fever has occurred in this division,
except among the men sent to the hos.
pital at Siboney, where they have,
believe, contracted it. But in this
division there have been 1900 cases Of
malarial fever. Not man has died
from it, but the whole command is so
weakened and shattered as to be ripe
for dying like rotten sheep, when
Real Yellow Fsver Epidemic,
instead Of fake epidemic like the
present strikes Us, as it is bound to do
if we stay here at the height of the
sickness season, August and the be-
ginning OF September. Quarantine
against malarial fever is much like
quarantine against toothache. All Of
us are certain chat as soon as the
authorities fully appreoiate the oondi.
tion Of the army, we shall be sent
home. II we are kept here, it will, in
all human possibility, mean an appall.
ing disaster, for the surgeons here es-
timate that over half the army, il kept
here during the sickly season, will die.
This is not only terrible from the
standpoint Of the individual lives lost.

MEXICAN CATTLE TO CUBA.
Heavy Shipments From Casds
6randes Through Mexico To
Our Newest Territory.

About two months ago q heavy ship
meut of Mexican cattle destined to Ell
Paso was rejected by the inspectors
when the train reached Juarez.
1t was alleged that the cattle were
ticky and the regulations require that
no tlcky cattle be admitted into the
United States.
The cattle were shipped from Casas
Grandes and were from the ranch OF
J. G. d. Boyd, who is we'll known 10 Z
Paso. He owns a large ranch, we'll
stocked with fue fat cattle, which had
up TO that time comm and, good
price in this ID ar ket aud at the inland
cattle centers. The ruling of the in
spectors was severe blow to his inter-
ests for the reason that it shut him
out from the markets aad reduced his
sales to almost nothing.
Confronted by this state OF affairs,
he cast about for a ne W field that would
afford profitable market for his
cattle. II occurred to him that Hava
ma, Cuba, might offer the greatest TO-
ducements for cattle shipments, owing
TO the great scarcity of fjOd 10 that

pension of hOstilities.
The same cattle which the customs
Inspectors had rejected Boyd shipped
from Juarez to Havana, as al expert
meut.
Collector Dillon gave George Gather
leave OF absence. and permitted him
to accompany the cattle TO Cuba. They
went via the Mexican Central 70 Tam
