SPAIN ACCEPTS OUR TERMS
Madrid Cabinet Officially Accepts
the American Demands.
YIELDS TO THE INEVITABLE.
Accepts Without Reservation tho Four
Bases Which United States Makes IN
Essential Preliminary to Peace
Coached In DiGnihed Language.

MADRID, Aug. s.-The cabinet coun-
Gil terminated after having completely
approved the reply to the United
States, which, it is said, accepts the
American conditions.
The reply was telegraphed to Senior
Leon y Castillo, the Spanish Ambassa-
dor to France, last night, so that NJ.
Cambon, the French ambassador at
Washington, should receive it to-day.
The government is fully convinced
that the note will be satisfactory to
the Washington government and that
. suspension of hostilities will be its
immediate consequence.
From a well informed source it is
learned that while the answer does
not discuss the four bases which the
United States makes an essential pre-
iminary to peace, and which Spain ac-
cepts without reservation, it points
out that in order to avoid the definite
negotiations being in any way COM
plicated by incidents Of the war it is
expedient to agree beforehand to a
suspension of hostilities.
1t is reported that Duke Almodovar
de Rio, the minister of foreign affairs,
and Mgr. Merry del Val, Spanish am
bassador to the Vatican, will be Sc
lected to represent Spain in the nego-
tiations. The newspapers make no
comment on the situation owing to the
strictness of the censorship.
According to reliable sources of in
formation the Spanish note is couched
in dignified language. It asserts that
Spain bows to the force of circum-
stances, having done nothing to pro-
woke the war, into which she had been
unwillingly led in the defense of her
rights and territory.
1t expressed willingness to appoint
delegates to meet the American COM
mission to discuss a regime for the Phil
ippines. It is understood that both
Senior Sagasta and Duke Almodovar de
Rio, the foreign minister, told the
queen regent that they felt deeply the
painful duty circumstances imposed
upon them.

Congestion at St, Michael.s.

SEATTLE, Wash Aug. s.-The steam
er Dirigo arrived yesterday morning
from st. Michaers with 100 passen-
gers, some of whom went North re-
Gently, but being unable to get up the
river returned. About forty were
Klondikers. They brought down $780,
600 in dust and nuggets. The Dirigo
confirms the stories that a terrible
condition of affairs exists at st.
Michael's owing to the failure of indi-
vidual ocean boats to get their passen-
gers up the river. 1t is predicted that
thousands will have to winter at St.
Michael's or return to the States.
