of the earnest desire for the speedy res
toration of peace entertained by the Eu-
ropean powers, this gossip tends to bear
out the belief that peace negotiations are
at hand. The president hopes so. He
has made no concealment Of his earnest
desire for a speedy termination OF the
war Such a position on his part Is en-
tirely reconcilable with the earnest pur-
pose to prosecute the war until its orig
inal purpose has been attained. Before
that time any overtures for peace must
come from Spain. The news from Madrid
that Spain had been practically placed
under martial law IS regarded as a most
hopeful sign. It is construed to mean
purpose on the part of the Spanish gov
eminent to bind up in advance the tur-
bulent elements in Spain that might be
expected to take advantage Of the public
disconent caused by the heavy sacrifices
the government must make to obtain
peace, in order 10 cause a revolution and
overthrow the monarchy. 1t is realized
here by the officials every day win bring
forth a fresh crop Of peace rumors. few
with any foundation, but their very circu-
lation and the credence gained for them
is regarded as an encouraging sign that
the Spnish cause is near an end.

SPANISH FOOL MOTIONS

Washington, July 15.-The cabinet ad-
journed without knowledge of the details
of the terms of surrender which were 10
be made at Santiago by the commission
ers referred to by General Shafter in his
dispatch of yesterday. Nothing further
had been received from the general on
this subject and the assumption was that
the commissioners were still at work en-
deavoring to arrange the details of the
surrender. These were likely TO be more
complex than had been generally suPpos-
ed, for aside from matters Of actual mo-
ment. such as the methods Of transp0rta-
ton. the carrying of arms by the troops
and the transportation Of the Spanish Of
ficers there were many smaller matters
10 be attended to, some Of them growing
out Of the fantastic Spanish notions Of
honor. which would be as troubi esOne TO
deal with as matters Of vital Importance
The French cable company shut down
over night and that was supposed - first
70 be the reason why further reports
were not forthcoming from Shafter or
Miles. It was believed that the cable OF
orators. all French. had become weakened
from the wearied labors and refused To
work Last night came a renewal OF work
though no messages from SaafteT were
on file.

MEETING WIN TORAL

Before Santiago. July Il, 1915 D. M, via
Playa del Este, Guantanamo Santiago
has surrendered. A commission of the
two Spaniards,, one Englishman and three
Americans, is now arranging terms.
Probably the Spanish army will accept
a parole and be returned to Spain We
insist on immediate possession of the city,
pending arrangements as TO details and
probably will enter Santiago tonight
Our army will remain outside the city,
but our sick will be taken in and general
headquarters will be Immediately estab
lshed
The truce which was to end at noon to
day, was prolonged by a flag sent out
from the Spanish lines at $50 this (Thurs
day. morning. General Toral, acting on
Captain General Biancos instructions,
asked time to communicate by cable with
Madrid. the surrender of Santiago being
too important step to be taken without
royal authority. In the meantime General
Blanco offered o appoint a joint commits
sion to arrange terms.
General Miles and General Shafter de
cided to call for a personal interview with
General Toral. his message being am5i
guous. They rode out between the lines
shortly before noon and met General
Toral, who said he had received a few
hinutes before. authority from Captain
General Blanco TO capitulate and to make
the work of the commissioners final.
General Toral named Mr.. Robert Mason,
British consul; General TolOn and his own
(Torals chief of staff. General Shafter
and General Miles named General Law
ton, General Wheeler and Captain Miley
of General Skaters staff. The commits
sion is now working on the terms of sur
render.
The news was received with enthusiasm
in the American lines. The American war
ships are expected to pass under the guns
of Ell MORO this evening and will com
mand the town from the upper bay 1t
is probable that but few will remain here,
orders having been received for all the
heavy vessels to join Commodore Wat
sons squadron for the Spanish coast.
There is a report-as yet unconfirmed-
that hte surrender and evacuation of the
Spanish troops may extend TO the entire
province Of Santiago de Cuba. This is
only a rumor. which events may disprove;
but it is generally believed that in case
of such evacuation our main force would
probably seek a fresh camp on the high
land in the vicinity with a view 10 recup-

Washington. July 15.-The cabinet was
in session almost two hours today. There
We're several dispatches laid before the
government but, it was said, none were of
any particular Importance save one from
General Miles, who wired what was want
ed in the way of movement of troops from
here and the shipment of some horses and
supplies.
The royal decree Of suspension Of in
dividual rights in Spain gave rise to some
discussion as to the outlook for peace Sec
rotary Day, however. reported that there
were no Overtures of any kind so far
made known to him. Detailed dispatches
following up the announcement of the
surrender were eagerly awaited, but it
did not come. Secretary Long was the
only absentee.

The admiral has not taken an active

consulted by General Miles and General
Shfter and undoubtedly he will be con-

tails Of the surrender. He declined TO
discuss the matter further than to ex-

accomplished without further bloodshed
and that the farms OF the capitulation

the hill top on the hight, where the ruins
of Aguadores fort lay. This has been Sc

confirmation of the surrender. This mes

M'KINLEY WANTS PEACE

Washington, July 15.-President McKin-
ley gave expression today to a strong
hope for an early peace. Responding TO
congra tulations on the success of the
Santiago campaign he said: II hope for
early peace now" In the course of other
interviews ne gave voice to the same SEN
timent, not expressing his entire belief,
but a strong hope that peace would
come. The dispatch from Madrid an

dividual rights in Spain was quickly COM
municated to the president and was read
at the cabinet meeting. As in Madrid.
It was generally taken to mean the i'm
minence of a move OF the Spanish govern
ment for a cessa ton of hostilities. 1t
was received, with this Interpretation.

confident of so satisfactory an outcome.
one member OF the cabinet expressed the
opinion that from the issuance Of the de-
cree at this tine the end was not far off.
but he was not sure Of the Spanish in
teution. He cited the frequency Of mis-
construction Of Spanish motives and the
intentional misleading as to the course il
intened 10 pursue. At the same time he
took a hopeful view Of the situation and
thought that the royal pronunciameno
might IN the eNigency Of the Spanish

peace movement. Senator Cannon of Utah
who had a talk with the president. did
not take an entirely roseate view OF the
