LONDON .Julyls.-A special dispatch
from Madrid, published this afternoon,
says Captain General Bfanco has re-
piled TO the Spanish governments relt-
Grated presentations in regard to peace,
by energetically protesting against the
idea OF peace. The captain general says
the report that the government has re-
solved to negotiate with the United
States has had deplorable effect, es-
pecially among the troops. He adds
that deputation Of officers chosen by
the army had begged him to convey to
the government their protests against
any propositions for peace, claiming
that nothing can justify a cessation OF
hostllIties at present. Continuing, Cen
eral Blanco says: The army has only

not be said to have suffered reverse,
although opposed numerically to q far

clares that so long as It is not conclus-

Spain cannot treat for peace without
dIshonorIng her army to the eyes OF the
world. The Cuban volunteers are even

There was no response and the Raj

The white nag was instantly run up
on the ruins OF the earthworks.
A landing party demanded absolute
