ROOSEVELT CALLED DOWN.
IA Letter to Secretary Anger Meets With n
Sharp sobuite.

Sharp Hobuke'
WASHINGTON, Aug. 6.-The follow
ing correspondence has passed be-
tween Colonel Roosevelt. and Secretary
AAlger:
SANTIAGO, July %, 1s9s.-My Dear
Mr.. Secretary: am writing with the
knowledge and approval of General
Wheeler We earnestly hope that you
will send us-most of the regulars,
and, at any rate, the cavalry division,
including the rough riders. who are as
good as any regulars and three times
as good as any state troops-to Porto
Rico. There are 1890 effective men in
this division. If those who were left
behind were joined to them, we could
land at Porto Rico, in this cavalry
division, close to 1000 men, whowould
be worth easily any 10000 national
guards armed with black powder,
Springfelds or other archaic weapons.
Very respectfully,
THEODORE ROOSEVELT.
The following reply was cabled to
Colonel Roosevelt: Your letter of 23d
is received. The reg liar army, the
volunteer army and the rough riders
have done well, but 1 suggest that,
unless you want to spoil the effects
and glory of your victory, you make
no invidious comparisons. The rough
riders are no better than other volun-
teers. They have an advantage in
their arms, for which they ought to be
very grateful. R. A. ALGER,
Secretary of War.

SPAIN ACCEPTS OUR TERMS. !.
Madrid Cabinet Officially Accepts
the American Demands.
YIELDS TO JTHE lNEVlTkEEE.
Accepts wdthcut Reservation the Tour
Bases Whicls United States Makos an
Essential preliminary to Peace
Couchcd IN ,Dignified Language

MADRID, Aug. s.-The cabinet eoan-
Gil terminatedafter having completely
approved the reply to the United
States, which, it>is said, accepts the
American conditions
The reply was telegraphed to Senior
Leon y Castillo, the Spanish Ambassa-
dor to France, last night, SO that M.
Cambon, the French ambassador at
Washington, SHOULD receive it to-day.
The governments fully convinced
that the note will be satisfactory to
the Washington government and that
a suspension of hostilities will be its
immediate consequence.
From n well informed source 1T as
learned that while the answer does
not discuss the four bases which the
United States makes an essential pre-
liminary to peace, and which Spain ae-
cepts without reservation, it points
out that in order,to avoid the definite
negotiations being in any way COM
plicated by incidents Of the war it is
expedient to agree beforehand to a
suspension of hostilities.
1t is reported that Duke Almodovar
de Rio, the minister of foreign affairs,
and Mgr. Merry del Val, Spanish am
bassador to the Vatican, will be Sc
leeted to represent Spain in the nego-
tiations. The newspapers make NO
comment on the situation owing to the
strictness of the censorship.
According to reliable sources of in
formation the Spanish note is couched
in dignified language. 1t asserts that
Spain bows to the force of circum-
stances, having done nothing to pro-
woke the war, into which she had been
unwillingly led in the defense of her
rights and territory.
1t expressed a Willingness to appoint
delegates to meet the American com
missionao discuss regime for the Phil
ippines. 1t is understood that both
Senior Ssgasta and Duke Almodovar de
Rio, the foreign minister, told the
queen regent that they felt deeply the
painful duty circumstances imposed
upon them.

were fou1d. Those found on the first
day were.in fair state of preserEa-
zion. Those found later were aG~
xanced in decomposition.
Nearly adj were the bodies of steer
age passengers or sailors. This could
be told from the clothing. Most of
the bodies were men, few were wo-
mer and some boys. Some were taken
on board for particular examination.
None were these of the Perry or Dill
lon families. AL of the bodies were
buried at sea. In the usual manner,
and all the effects, such as they were,
were brought ashore. There was
hardly anything about the female
bodies to aid Identification. Only one

SPAIN HOPES FOR INTERVENTION.

said that the communications exchanged be-
tween high officials at Madrid. Vienna and Ber
lin do not treat directly OF peace: but. 1t is

arise out of Germany's hostility to the de-
velopment Of American Intervention in the Phil

intention of the United States to occupy the
Iadrone and Caroline Islands. II is pointed out
that Germany has long desired Ponape as
