Synopsis of the .Weather.-Th feature
of the weather last night was the ''cool
wave" over the Lake region, which had
begun to reach North Carolina last night
The pressure being high over the North
Atlantic and low in the Gulf of Mexico,
the general direction of the winds last
night was northerly. Very little rain
occurred, except over Florida, but there
does not seem to be distinct storm
center anywhere.
he pressure is very low in the AZ.
IRENE west, and this causes southerly
winds west of the Mississippi, with high
temperature which extends us high as
Nebraska and Minnesota. At North
Platte, Tuesdays maximum was 90;
Oklahoma 94. The cool wave will be
moderate, therefore, and not of long
duration. The weather is generally
clear now everywhere.

Peace Conference Situation
Said to Be Embarrassing.
DISCUSSED Al THE WHITE HOUSE.
-Four s.embers of the Cabinet Were With
the President, but, 1t Was Declared,
Had Not Been Formally Summoned.
President still Hopeful.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 26.-Informat;on
received by the president from Paris
has been informally discussed at the
White House by Mr.. Mckinley and
several members of his cabinet. Four
members of the misunderstanding Hay,
Secretary Alger, Postmaster General
Smith and Secretary Wilson-were
with the president for some time They
had not been summoned to the execu-
tive mansion, but had dropped in to
discuss with the president some press
ing departmental matters which had to
be disposed of before the latter left for
Philadelphia. The information received
from the American peace commission
ers, which was said to be disquleting,
was informally discussed, but so far as
could be ascertaired no action of any
kind was taken.
Precisely the nature of the informa-
ton received by the president from the
American commissioners was not dis
closed 1t is said, however, that the
lituation is embarrassing if not critical,
in the opinion of the commissioners.
although there is still reason for the
expectation that the negotiations viii
not be broken off and that they will
proceed to successful issue 1t is
understood to be the belief Of the presi-
dent that the uncertainty which now
seems to cloud the proceedings of the
joint commission will soon be dissi,
pated and that an agreement will be
reached that will be eminently salts

question the attitude of the United
States has been strictly determined.
The commissioners discussed the

vestigating commission, was with this
regiment and with the Fourth infantry
in Cuba. He arrived at Santiago or
the 10th of July. He found the medi
cal supplies short and was unable to Sc
cure any of them for "a few days until
he learned how to get them from the
division hospital. There was a suffi
cheney of quinine, but shortage OF
morphine. However, he had all Of this

the Red Cross society and then going tc
Santiago for them. DR.. Conner asked
if the government could not have got.
ten these supplies to Santiago as
promptly as the Red Cross, and DR..
Boss replied that while he had no in
formation he thought it could have
done so. He had left Santiago with the
Fourth infantry and gone to Montauk
Point on the Seneca. When they left
Cuta, be said, the command was all
broken up'' and every man of the com.
mand was sick on the way north. The
doctor himself was sick and in the de.
tention hospital at Montauk and he ties.
titled to the careful conduct of that in.
stitution, saying the supplies were
ample and the attention was all that
could have been desired.
a number of other witnesses were ex-
amined among them Lieutenant Colo.
mel Cabell of the Second Arkansas.
Colonel Cabell said, in reply to ques-
tions put by DIR. Conner, that he had
observed a condition of affairs at the
hospital of the Second division of the
Third army corps in June which he
considered horrible. He had himself
seen one sick man lying in the rain
without the protection of even a tent
fly, and he had been informed by otE y
officers that several others had been left
in the same way.
He thought the doctt we're honest
enough, but that they not know
how to get supplies. MI drivers had
been used for nurses, and Ao had been
reliably informed that many of them
were in the habit of getting drunk and
on this account neglected their pa
tients. He said DR.. Schooler was the
division surgeon at the time. Colonel
Cabell is lieutenant in the regular
army, and his testimony made an evil
dent impression upon the commission.
