will be detached from their regiments and
detailed for this special service by the War
Department Until further information Is
had from Washington it will not be known
just how they will proceed, but 1t is sup
posed they will come to Indianapolis, re-
cefve final instructions and proceed to their
own towns and begin the work of recruit
ing.
Maj. Russell B. Harrison, of Terre Haute,
was comforting with the Governor yester-
day. He was inclined to think that the War
Department would have the recruited men
nished transportation to the regiments for
which they are intended although it is pos
sible that they will be examined by civilian
surgeons and sent directly South from their
homes. 1t is supposed all these subjects
will be covered by detailed instructions
from Washington after the officers are de-
tailed for the recruiting work.

NO PEACE OVERTUREs.
President. However, "HOpes for
Early Peace Now"

WASHINGTON, July 15.-"There nave
been no overtures for peace received by
any United States embassy or legation
abroad or by the Department of State at
Washington"
That was the statement made by
member of the Cabinet who is thoroughly
familiar with the conditions as they eA-
ist to-day, and was called forth by va
rious reports that ranged all the way
from an announcement that the basis
for treaty of peace already had been
reached to the more guarded declaration
that the Spanish Government had con-
veyed in an unofficial manner to the
United States Government an intimation
OF some of the concessions it was pre-
pared to make to secure peace.
PEACE PROSPECT BRIGHTER.
The prospects for the speedy institution
of peace negotiations have frightened de-
cidedly since the collapse of the Spanish
resistance at Santiago.
President Mckinley gave expression TO
a strong hope for an early peace. Re
spending to congratulations on the sue
cess of the Santiago campaign, he said:
II hope for early peace, now"
In the course of other interviews he
gave voice TO the same sentiment, not
expressing his entire belief, but strong
hope that peace would come.
