WHY SACASTA GAVE Up
Belief Entertained a Peace Ministry
Will Succeed His.
TIE GROUNDS FOR THIS HOPE
Story That the Administration Has Al
ready Made Demands on Spain Condi-
tional to Ending the War Emphat-
ically Denied at Washington.

Washington, July 13.-The report from
Madrid that Senior Sagasta's ministry
has resigned is believed here to make
The prospects for an early peace more
favorable. 1t is thought probable that
Senior Sagasta has stepped out of the
way to make room for cabinet which
will negotiate for a cessation Of hostili-
ties and that a dispatch from Madrid
purportng to give demands made by
the United States was inspired for the
purpose of feeling the temper OF the
United States by seeing how such terms
would be considered here.
There is no foundation, however, for
The report from Madrid that the united
States has made demands from Spain
as conditions Of peace, contemplating
the cession of Cuba and Porto Rico,
with a port in the Canaries, the pay
nent of an indemnity of G48,OO0,Ooo ana
the retention of the Philippines as
guarantee of the payment of the lndem-
nity.
1t was stated by member of the cab
met today that this government nau
made no propositions whatever, either
directly or indirectly, concerning peace,
nor has any proposition been received
from Spain, either directly or indirectly.
why Peace Is Looked For.
The only basis for the hope of the ad-
ministration that Spain will soon sue
for peace is the conviction that all
classes in Spain are rapidly being con-
yinced of the hopelessness of continuing
the struggle. This conviction is based
on the tone of the Spanish papers and
on information received, through press
dispatches from Madrid and other
sources. of the sentiment Of many lead
ing men in Spain.
| The following dispatch from Madrid
today is worthy Of notice in this con-
nection:
1.-The possibility of peace with the
United States is being widely discussed
in the newspapers and by the public
The conservative papers declare Spain
Is prepared to accept peace, provided II
implies only the loss of Cuba; but, they
add. Spain would prefer war a routranct
If the United States claims Porto Rico
the Philippine islands or an immense
indemnity, which would be impossible
for Spain to pay.
"The Correspondents asserts tha
General Correa. the minister for war
does not disagree with the other cabi
net ministers SO seriously as Is generally
supposed, and in view of the gravity
of the Cuban situation it is possible NJ
will no longer oppose peace, provided
the conditions are not too onerous.
"The public connects the recent con
ference between Duke Almodovar d.
: Rio, the Spanish minister for foreigl
affairs, and the French embassado
here. M. Patenotre, with the report tina
the French ambassador at Washington
M. Cambon, has been instructed to as
certain the lightest conditions upol
which peace Is obtainable."

Considering Dispatches.

WASHINGTON, July 13.- a special
of the Cabinet was called at
noon.
the war conference is still continuing
at 2 80, and important dispatches are
being considered.
IA suspicious of yellow fever have
broken out among the employees, at the
quartermastcr department near Santl-
ago.
The men are isolated, and the doctors
expect to stamp out the fever before it
makes great headway.
1t was learned later that all the dcs-
patches laid before both War Board
and Cabinet relate to the appearance OF
suspicious of fever which it is fearee
might be the dread yellow jack, among
the forces at Santiago.
Confidence is expressed that they viii
be able to wipe it out,
