Ambassador Acted at Request Of Span
ish Government President Will
Answer Tomorrow.

Washington, July 27.-As far as ca
be gathered our government has alread
prepared itself to announce the outline
of the conditions it will seek to impos
in the consummation of peace. Gener
ally stated, two propositions seem to b
included in all demands, namely: First
the absolute independence of Cuba witt
the provision that the island shall b.
absolyed from all responsibility for an,
debts heretofore charged against it b!
Spain; second, the absolute cessiol
of Puerto Rico to the United States
likewise unencumbered by liabilities fol
bonded Indebtedness. Another poin
upon which the United States, it is be
lieved will insist, is the cession OF coal
ing stations in the Ladrones and Caro-
linas. These territorial concessions, i
is expected, will be regarded as Sutfi
cient compensation for the expenditure
made by this country without a specific
demand for money indemnity. Tht
consideration which promises to give
more trouble is the Philippines ones
tion. A coaling station is wanted there
but beyond that it may be that we viii
.hot care 10 20. All ehCifeiy ulhe,eh
attitude might nave oeen assumed ..
our government, but for the course
adopted by the insurgents under Gen
eral Aguinaldo, which it is asserted
leaves the United States under no mora
obligations to care for his people.
Must Abandon Cuba and Puerto Rico.
New York, July 27--A special to the
Tribune from Washington says: TO M.
Cambon's representations yesterday,
