Sentiment of the Cabinet Favorable
20 Listening to Spain.

WASHINGTON, July 26.--The conference
of Secretaries Alger, Bliss, Wilson and
Postmaster General Emory Smith with
President Mckinley lasted until nearly mid
night. At its conclusion Secretary Alger
said that no special Cabinet meeting had
been called for tomorrow and he saw no
prospect of one. Probably no regular ses-
sion fthe Cabinet will be necessary for
the President to determine upon his answer
to the French amba ssador. In fact, from
what was said by members of the Cabinet
who have consulted with the President it
seems practically determined to accept the
offer to open negotiations. 1t was stated
that in effecting a settlement some begin
ming had to be made. The offer made to-
day was such a beginning. Nothing could
be known about the terms upon which the
negotiations will be conducted or proposals
to be made until there had been a further
conference by those having the matter in
charge. Secretary Alger again stated when
he left the White House that there would
be no change in the plans of the campaign
and the war would go forward with vigor.

Philippines, namely as territory at least
partially in the possession OF the United
States at the beginning of the negotiations.
While the distance from Ponce to San
Juan is much greater than from the point
originally selected for Miless landing. there
is, according to the military. information
charts, a splendid fourteen-foot mac
adamized road leading directly across tho
island to San Juan on the north shore.
Such road as this, If it is properly de-
scribed in the archives of the War Depart-
ment, would be very little affected by the
torrential rains of this season! so it might
be possible for our troops. accompanied as
they will be by field artillery. to make the
march of seventy miles between Ponce and
San Juan in less time than it would have
required to cover the much shorter distance
points that have been named as the landing
place for troops.
There will be no difficulty in the prompt
transmission of any dispatches General
Miles may file over the cable from St.
Thomas. 1t is probable that in the begin-
ming the government at Madrid will be In
advance with the news. This is because
there is cable running from Ponce around
through a group of the West India islands
to Kingston, where communication with
the transatlantic cable can be had Thus

existing at Santiago at the beginning Of
the campaign when the Spanish government
able to communicate directly with the
communications were subject to a delay Of
about twenty-four hours. However, ali this
will be rectifed in few days and General
Miles will be in quick communication with
Washington.
Discussion at the Cabinet meeting to-day.
1t is understood, brought out the fact that
General Miles had considered the choice OF
three landing points for his-for not one
of which was Ponce. While not specifically
stated, the three points named are suggested
as probably Fayardo. Guanica and Fuejes.

sented his credentials to President McKin-
ley Jan. Is. 1898.
Spain's peace proposals excited the deep
est interest throughout Washington, and for
the time being war news gave way to ami
mated discussion Of the prospects for peace.
This was particularly true in diplomatic
circles The move of the French ambassa-
dor took the other members of the corps
completely by surprise, as they had well
knowr among themselves that all peace talk
up to This time had been fanciful, and they
had no reason to expect that move would
take definite shape so quickly. Several of
the foreign representatives made inquiries
of the State Department as tothe meaning
of the French ambassadors call. and learn
ing that he had presented Spain's PROPOSE
ton for peace, full reports were cabled to
the foreign Offices The matter was con-
sidered of such moment that the cable re-
port to one of the foreign offices cost sew
eral hundred dollars.

Three Possible Propositions.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, July 26.--M. Cambon's
overtures on behalf of Spain may or may
not mean immediate peace. All that Spain
has asked is time in which to discuss terms
of peace and to indicate an apparent will
an arnistice to discuss general peace propo-
sitions was not considered and the French
ambassador was hidden to advise Madrid
that something definite would have to be
offered in the way of terms and conditions
If Madrid has a proposition which can be
considered it will then be for this gov
ernment to say whether it is acceptable
If not acceptable the opportunity will be
presented the President of naming the con-
ditions on which the United States will stop
the fight. There is more than a speculative
authority for the statement that NJ. Cam
bon will be authorized to submit at his next
interview with President Mckinley prop
osition embodyng in effect the following:
"First-The REIMBURSEMENT Of Spanish
sovereignty in Cuba on condition that the
United States exercise a protectorate over
the island.
"Second-The cession of Porto Rico to the
United States as a war indemnity.
"Third-The submission of all other ques-
tions to international arbitration"
The only one of these conditions which
the United States can accept is the second
one. That is clear cut and to the point.

AMTI.ScAt1GRS' Bilt.

A bill will be introduced in con-
gress at the present session limit
ing the sale OF railroad tickets ex-
clusively to the accredited agents
OF the railroads and absolutely pro-
hibiting the scalping business. Our
local agent, Mr.. w. o. Skinner,
circulated petition among our
citizens during the present week
which will re sent to Colorado's
representatives in congress asking
their cooperation in securing the
passage OF the bill. The good
features OF the proposed legislation
were generally recognized and the
petition was signed by every man
to whom it was presented.
The desire OF the railroad com
panies to make excursion rates to
trade centers is greatly hindered
by the existence oil the scalpers,
and ii they were out OF the way II
would enable the transportation
lines TO offer inducements that
would attract the people to attend
conventions, fairs, exposltions,
and various other gatherings OF
general interest. Ii is proposed
in the new law to have all railroad
tickets redeemable at their face
value when not used, feature that
will be appreciated by those who
have had experience in disposing
Of unused tickets to scalpers.
The scalplng business furnishes
an incentive to fraud and false im
personation, and provides instru-
mentalities which have in certain
cases been used for counterteiting
railroad tickets, constituting Sc
rious tax upon the railroads. The
Offices OF ticket scalpers have been
used as an outlet tor railroad ttck-
cts fraudulently or dishonesty
procured. 1t is proper that the
general public and the railroads
should be protected in their rig hts,
and the innocent should be pro-
tected against fraud and incentive
to fraud. Without such protection
provided by suitable legislation,
the railroads are Obliged, in self
defense, to observe rules in the
making of reduced rates and the
issuance OF excursion tickets, which
are less liberal to the public than
they would otherwise be ready to
adopt.
