which the United States govern
ment will find acceptable as a basis
Of peace are being reduced to form
by Secretary Day, the President
having reached a conclusion on
their outlines. These terms we're
the formal subject Of interest and
discussion today i'll official circles.
If the Presidents purpose was to
secure a free expression Of public
opinion on this subject, he has been
gratified with the response made
through the newspapers and in the
interest shownby government
officials in the complex problem
now presented. Although it was
stated yesterday that no announce
me1t OF the position assumed by
by the United States in this mattey
Iwaald be foEtheoming BefQrsit tsss lIAas
been formally discussed In the, cab
ineU tomorrow, there is the best
reason to believe that after the full
conferences the President has had
individually with the members of
his cabinet he has already made UP
his mird and that Secretary Day
has even now practically reduced
to form the reply that the United
States government will make TO the
Spanish governments overture
through Ambassador Cambon.
POSITION OF ADMINISTRATION.
On the main points Of the terms
Of peace the administrators lposi
ton was so we'll defined and stated
by the Associated Press yesterday
that there is little left to conf njecture.
About the only point that seems to
be open to amendment o! an exten-
sive character is the disposition Of
the Philippines. While the ad-
ministration has not failed to take
notice of the extent of the demand
for their acquisition by the United
States as exhibited in certain sec
tions of the country, it can bg
stated that the conclusion has beer
reached to abide by the first deci
sion on this point, namely, to re
linquish the islands, retaining {
coaling station there surrounded BY
sufficient zoue of land to make i
self.supporting. This decision, it il
possible though rot probable, may
be again changed before the cabi
net disposes of the matter tomor
row, as strong influences are a
work to induce the President to in
sist upon the substitution of a
least an independent governlnen
over the Philippines for Spahisf
rule. If this point shall be diff
cult of settlement the answer t.
Spain may not be rendered tomor
row, but may have to wait upoi
another cabinet meeting mex
Tuesday.
sAGASTA'S BAD BREAK.
There was a display of indigna
ton in official circles today upoi
the publication of what was report
ed to be a statement from the Spar
ish premier imputing bad faith t
the United States in pursuing tn
war and continuing to make cor
quests. However, this feeling 500

SECRETARY SHERMAN,s RETIREMENT.
%%~><<~~~~


Nobody grieves over John sherman $
retirement from public life. In long
career in positions of honor, he has lett
no monument of usefulness. lie mas
served the trusts, the syndicates and the
money power with conspicuous ability
and fidelity, and has helped by ieglsla-
tion to infict more damage upon the
masses of his fellowmcn than General
sherman inflicted in his march to the
sea.
With this record. it is not to he OK
ncctcd that the people view his retire
mont with regret. The only thing that
can be said to his credit is that he was
succeeded in the Senate by more igno-
rant and more unworthy man. His pub
lie career is great only when contrast
al with the public achievements Of
Mark Hanna.
If seems that his retirement came
about by reason of his giving away a
cabinet secret. A special from Wash
mcton TO the Atlanta Constitution on
April 23d, contained the following:
Minister Plenipotentiary Stanislaus
Hengelmuller called at the State De
partment shortly after 10 o'clock this
morning. With the French Ambassa-
dor. NJ Cambon. he represents the inter
csts of the Spanish government by dip
lomatic courtesy, and his visit was in
connection with his newly assumed du-
ties. Baron Hengelmullcr concluded
his business at the Department in few
moments and was about to take his de
parture, when Secretary Sherman tot
tered out into the hall to say goOdby to
him. as they had been very good friends.
THE aged Secretary was inclined tc
be ELUSIVE and when the Ambassador
referred TO the war with Spain, Secre.
tary Sherman replied carelcssly, but
with child-like confidence:
THERE WON'T BE ANY WAR
THE POWERS WILL BE ALLOW
ED TO MEDIATE THE DIFF
Guilty"
THE Ambassador looked at him with
surprise and made no response.
".Iudge Day, who overheard the re
mark of his aged chief. hurried after
Hengelmuller and FASTENED to disabuso
his mind of the impression left by the
words of Secretary Sherman"

would compromise their principles by
