various changes of government the
principles Of a Republican form have

presidency Of the United States tn that
the executive has no veto power and
is to some extent outside the influence

power is paramount and in It's form
resembles the powers of the English

Asked for an expression of his views
upon the subject Of territorial eNpan-
sion Mr. Stevenson said:
TT would seem that the policy OF
expansion is being forced upon the
people of the United States and that
we shall be compelled to adopt it, Tt
is very difficult problem that is pre-
scented to the nation. Hawaii has be-
come a part Of Our government by the
consent of her people, and in accord
ance with the wishes Of the people OF
this country. We have practically
conquered Cuba and the understand
ing is that her people shall have a
Republfcan form CT government Of their
own. 1t requires no prophet, however.
to foreteH that in the course of time
Cuba will become one of the states
OF the Union. I have not given the
subject sufficient thought to warrant
my saying whether I am in favor Of

LONDON, July 15.eThe Madrid cor
respondent of the Daily Telegraph says:
The government has definitely de-,
cided to open peace negotiations with
out delay, proposing as a basis the
remuneration Of all rights over Cuba
and the immediate discussion of any
other reasonable proposals the United
States may make.
1.-THE reports that an armed CarIist
band has made its appearance in the
neiehborhood of Leon are unfounded.
Neither in that district nor in the
province of Catalonia has public dis
satisfaction eliminated in any violent
or laMiess acts. 1t is rumored here that
the government intends, among other
paciflcatory plans, to appoint Lieut..
Gen. Weyler as captain general of
Catalonia. Although I have not spoken
to him on the subject 1 feel convinced
that under present conditions he would
not feel justified in accepting the posi-.
ton"
The Madrid correspondent of thu
Daily Mail says:
Despite the official denials IT is
strongly suspected that preliminary
negotiations for peace are already I'M
der way in the shape of indirect IN
quiries regarding the terms Of Amer
lea which Spain might accept. It is
asserted that M. Cambon, the French
