Washington, July 2S.--The discu-
sslon i'll naval circles over the con.
tract speed requirements Of the new
battleships Maine, Missouri, and Ohio
for the construction of which bids will
be opened soon, has resulted in the
preparation of circular notifying
shipbuilders that the ordinary course
of awarding contracts to the lowest
responsible bidders will not be strict
ly adhered to.
The Navy Department has decided
that grenter speed and greater
steaming radius, or the distance YES
sci can go without recoaling, are de-
sirable; but as the plans have already
been prepared, and to change them
might cause endless confusion and
considerable dissatisfaction, the ship
builders will be notified through the
circular that preference will be given
In awarding contracts to those who
propose to build vessels having the
highest rate Of speed and the greatest
coal endurance.

alton That No Other Nation Shall Figure
in the Negotiations.
Washington, July 2S.--The President
directed Tuesday afternoon that the
following official statement should be
made public:
"The French Ambassador, on behalf
of the government Of Spain and by d.
rection of the Spanish Minister of For
eign Affairs presented to the Presi-
dent this afternoon at the White
House a message from the Spanish
Government looking to the termina-
tion of the war and the settlement of
terms of peace"
The note handed to the President by
NJ. Cambon at the request of the
Spanish Minister Of Foreign Affairs
and by direction of the French Gov.
ernment is u brief affair. 1t does not
propose any terms, but merely asks
the United States Government for a
statement of the terms on which II
VIII be willing to cease hostilities and
arrange a peaccable settlement with
Spain.
The absence of defulte terms on
which Spain would be willing to end
the war is not regarded as important
by the President and Secretary Day.
A correspondent was informed at the
Executive Mansion that 1t Is contrary
to the precedents Of Spanish diploma.
cy to set forth terms Of peace until 1t
has been fully determined that the
country with which Spain Is treating
Is willing to accept peace overtures.
The communication made by NJ.
Cambon met all the requirements
enunclated Informally by the Admin
istratioD rs essential to the prelimina-
ry work of restoring friendly relations
between the United States and Spain.
1t had been stipulated by the Presi.
dent that any overtures looking to the
establishment Of peace must be made
directly to him: that they must be
conclusive and advanced In good faith
by Spain; that they must not come
through the medium Of some foreign
Government; that they must not be
intended merely to secure diplomatic
delay.
