WASHINGTON, Aug. ll---Up to the

WASHINGTON, Aug. ll---Up to the hour
of midnight the president had received no off
cial communication as to the action Of the
Spanish government but it is stated by those
who saw him tonight that he was very expectant
that this was the last day of the war;
The French embassy has as yet received no
communication from Madrid authorizing M.
Cambon to sign the protocol, but the secretary
|of the embassy left orders on retiring to be
called if any message WIS received, and it will
be Immediately translated
The bulletin from Madrid announcing that
the Spanish cabinet had approved the peace
protocol, and that the French ambassador would
receive instructions to sign it, was very crafty
ing to the administration, but it was expected
that such would be the course of the Spanish
government.
1t is confidently expected that the sigma
lures will be affixed to this document tomorrow,
and thereafter both governments will begin to
carry out its provisions The first will be the
cessation Of hostilities, followed Immediately by
the occupation Of Manila by Gen. Merritt and
the United States troops under his command,
the occupation of San Juan de Porto Rico by
Gen. Miles and the evacuation of that island by
the Spanish forces.
It is believed there will be delay in the
evacuation of Havana, Matanzas and other
Spanish strongholds in Cuba, as some difficulties
are anticipated in arranging for proper form
of government in Cuba, and because there is no
desire to hurry American troops into the island
at the present time the preference being to wait
till cooler weather.

at Chicago for the foreclosure of the
Baltimore and Ohio and Chicago

A Question of Constitution.

The Supreme Court of the United
States has rendered decision in the
case of King against Mullen, which
is of the utmost Importance to this
State.
This case involved the validity OF
the Constitution of West Virginia,
which provides for the forfeiture of
lands when they are not entered on
the land hooks for taxation. It was
claimed that this provision violated
the fourteenth amendment of the
Constitution of the United States,
as a taxing of property without due
process OF law Judge Golf, in the
lower court held that the forfeiture
law was valid, and the Supreme
Court affirms the decision. Had 1T
been otherwise, the result would
have been disastrous and almost
illimitable confusion in land titles
in this State.
