INCONCLUSIVE CONFERENCE Between Prosident McKinley and Ambassador Oainboii, MILITARY OPERATIONS PROGRESS Troops Will Be Forwarded to Porto Rico Promptly, Despite Spain's Evident De sire to Delay Hostile Movements General Wade's Expedition Will Be Complete in Every Detail Shatter's Health Report Fails to Show Improvement. Washington, Aug. 4. After a con ference on the pcuce question tasting for Just an hour yesterday afternoon between the president and M. Cauibon, the French ambassador, the latter act ing ns the representative of Spain, Sec rotary Day emenjed from the White IIouRe and announced that the con ference was Inconclusive, wherefore the parties to It had agreed to say noth ing publicly as to what had occurred. The secretary did not appear to lie dis couraged as he made this statement, though ho admited that no time had been set for another conference. From this It Is gathered thnt the long ex pected answer of the Spanish govern ment to the president's note, upon be ing received, had turned out to be jUBt as It was expected, either a counter proposition or a request for a fuller statement Iti detail upon some of the headR of the president's note. On the assumption that peace Is near at hand, some attention Is being given to the steps by which thlH may be brought about formally, and the meas ures necessary to be adopted Immedi ately afterwards. It Is said to be not at all Improbable that the prellml arles leading up to the signature of the treaty of peace may consume fully three "months, so that It may be well along towards the legal date of the assembly of congress before the presi dent will be prepared to submit a peace tieaty to the senate. This allowance of time Is rather moderate than exces sive. The United States was two years, from 1781 to 1763, In arranging a peace with Oteat Hrltain to terminate the revolutionary war. And In the case of the Chinese-Japanese war It was several months before the commission ers were able to perfect the treaty of Sblmonlsakl, which terminated that war. Meantime, In consonance with the declared purpose of the president nt the beginning of the overtures, this conference Is not operating to restrain military operations In any degroe. Or ders went out yesterday for a confer ence of leaders of the regiments to ac company General Wade to I'orto Ttlco, and within 24 hours some of the troops for this expedition will be boarding the transports at Newport News. It Is felt that even should an armistice be de clared before these troops see active service at the front It will he bene flclal for them to have made the trip, for otherwise there was danger of the morale of the troops being destroyed through their craving to get away from the big concentration camps and at least see the shores of Cuba or Porto Itlco. Profiting by Its last experience. Gen eral Wade's expedition Is going to be the most corrrplete In detail of any that have left our shores, and the soldiers will be protected In their health and comfort to the utmost degree. Secre tary Alger has himself conducted an Inquiry into tho conditions that led up to the fearful experience of the wound ed soldiers who returned to the United Stntes on tho Concho, and he has taken the necessary steps to prevent a repe tition of the bad management exhibited in that case. Thus there may be some delay in getting tho troops away with General Wnde, In view of the deter mination to have everything shipshape before the men are aboard, and as the transportation department was taken somewhat by surprise by tho suddenly announced decision of the secretary of war to start this expedition some days must elnpso before the necessary trans ports can be gathered at the ports of transportation. Shatter's dally health report failed to show any Improvement in the health conditions of tho Fifth army corps, so that It Is matter for congratulation that the war department was able to an nounce yesterday that It ordered five of the cavalry regiments of that corps to be embarked at once for the new camp at Montauk Point, L. I. LOYAL P0RT0R?CANSr Citizens Everywhere Enthusiastically Wei come Their Adoption by the United States Government. Ponce, Porto Itlco, via St. Thomas, Aug. ). If there are any loyal Span lards In Porto ltlco the Americans have not found them. Everywhere the Yan kee soldiers go tho Porto Itlcans greet them with cheers and, after the man ner of the country, hug them. There was a report that there were Borne Spanish soldiers at Juann Dlnz, and four companies of the Sixteenth Penn sylvania regiment were Bent to find them. Couriers announced the coming of the Americans to the people of the town, nnd a brnES band came out to greet them. All of the citizens wore assembled on the outskirts of tho town, nnd as the Yankee volunteers appeared on the road the band played "Yankee Doodle" and other patriotic American airs, while the people cried "Viva los Americanos." Many had presents of cigars, cigar ettes, tobacco, and bananas and other fruit, with which they loaded down the soldiers and Insisted upon taking the visitors to their homes and making them welcorrre, Desldes the towns already reported, nine others have signified their delight at the coming of the Americans. Thesu towns are Arroyo, Saclllas, Ylabucoa, Salinas, Santa Isabel, Adjuntas, Pcnu clas, Ouaynmnla arrd Ouaynmo. At Gtiityiiiuo our soldiers found a bigger reception than tlrat which was given them nt Junrra Diaz. The large Spanish garrison had been ordered out of town by tho citizens and the Amer ican flag was waving over the public buildings, nnd not a man In the town had opposed Its being raised. The bands were playing American airs and the men nrrd women fell upon their knees nrrd worshipped our soldiers. Tho mayor made a speech, In which ho said that the day of deliverance of Porto Hlco had come. The enthusiasm of the people was unbounded. SPAIN'S PROPHETS AND CUBA'S FUTURE.
