WASHINGTON. August 4.-Thore was
an expectation at tho State Department
that perhaps towards the close Of the
afternoon some word might be received
from spain through The French ambassa-
dor I'm reply 70 the Presidents deliver
ance yesterday upon the subject Of peace
conditions. This expectation was based
upon the fact tha- the terms themselves
had not been modified in any essential
point SO that there was little occasion for
prolonged discussion by the Spanish Cab
met which was presumed 10 have
thoroae ly considered this matter before
rendsr4 The arst reply.
Howes it was precived from the
news dispatches tnat The Madrid Cabinet
meeting had been Inclusive so 10 was
then presumed thal nothing definite
could be expected before tomorrow noon
az the earliest
WILL ACCEPT TERMS.
There is q cOulleut belief among the
administration otlelal5 that the Spanish
government viii accept the terms laid
down by the President and that the delay
OF a day or two ln recognizing the
inevitable is 10 be accounted for by
reasons OF Spanish Internal politics
which would not c0lntenance an. unre-
sisung submission without az least a
display OF O. purpose TO improve the
terms.

its record in good form 90 meet the crit

Meanwhile preparations for the Wade

attach themselves thereto. Among them
Randall. who was assigned only yesterday
To command the new military camp at
M0utauuk Point
The Navy Department insists that no
change has been made in the orders 10
the Watson squadron. Indeed there seems
tO be now evident "a purpose 10 dispatch
this fine squadron 20 European waters
regardless OF the termination of the war
the idea being that the splendid display
which would Doe made hy the American
ships wiz have "a beneficial effect in iu-

COL. ROOSEVELT'S ACTION.
Colonel Theodore Roosevelt. of the
| Rough Riders. has succeeded in hurry

mcnt in fetching Skaters army away
/ from Santiago though ln his disregard of
the convenu0u1Ices Doe has drawn upon

| Secretary of War. who evidently regards
! the course pursued by Colonel Roosevelt
as being calculated t0 iliure discipline.

10 is only fair 20 state that the War
/ Department for some time has been in-
