PANISH MESSAGE Its Text lloing Deciphered at French Embassy. ITS NATURE NOT YET KNOWN But Bolioved to Concede All Vital Points. PERSONNEL OF THE COMMISSION. No One Not In Accord With President's Views as to the Disposition of the Phil lppines Will Be Appointed Our Gov' ernmcnt Will Stand by the Terms In. dicated In the Answer to the Spanish Government. Washington, Aun. 9. The reply of the Spanish government to the peace conditions laid down by the United States was received by the French ambassador, M. Cambon, yosterdny af ternoon. The leply came In sections. the dispatch first received giving only the npenliiK passages of the Spanish reply. A few minutes later unother dispatch brought a second section, and these kept coming uninterruptedly by n procession of messengers until seven sections of the Spanish reply had been received at 4 o'clock, when the last part was still to arrive. In the mean time the cipher experts were at work and by 4:30 o'clock they wore abreast of all that portion of the reply received up to that time, and there was a lull of some time, pending the arrival of the concluding portions. Pending the receipt of the complete reply no stepswere taken to fix a time for n conference with the president, as the time for that depends largely upon some of the features of the reply, and also upon the explicit Instructions con cerning the dellverv of the answer which usually accompanies a docu ment of this solemn character. Neither at the White House nor at the state de partment was there any official know ledge that the leply had reached Wash ington, and the usual olllce hours closed with no appointment made for a con ference. Pending the official delivery of the answer speculation was rife as to Its contents. There was little or no further doubt that the length of the reply meant that Spain had not given a simple and direct alllrmatlve to the American conditions. It was evident that If the reply was an acceptance It was accompanied by extended discus sion and probably by conditions. This caused considerable apprehension In of ficial circles here, for while It was felt last week that Spain would surely yield In every particular, It began to bo felt that possibly there might be another period of discussion and pos sibly an Indirect attempt to open up a diplomatic exchnnge on the nature of the terms. All vital points were believed to be conceded the abandonment of Cuba. Porto Itlco and the Ladrones analtnq. n f t 1 , 1 1 r. . . '.a.ciiMi.-'iiiiii-iiL ui u uuiuiniHsion ro'pass upon questions relating to the Philip pines. In the cnrrylng out of this pro gram It was believed thatSpaln would seek to secure an understanding on many Incidental points Involved, some of them of considerable Importance. I.ato In the afternoon the president received an Indirect Intimation that the Spanish reply hnd come to the French embassy. A cabinet ofllccr who was with him at this time said on leaving: "The Information that has come from Madrid about the action of the Spanish cabinet Indicates the Spnnlsh have ac cepted our terms In a general way, but leaves several questions open that wo did not Include In the terms submitted. The communication offering those terms was explicit, specifically stating such points as would be left open to forther negotiation. Wo will stand on those terms." The administration has not yot given serious consideration to the personnel of the peace commission, but It can be stated no one not In accord with the president's present views as to the dis position of the Philippines will be ap pointed, and Mr. McKlnloy favors keeping $t least Manila harbor and bay and sufficient territory around It for Its support and protection, If not the whole of Luzon Island. As to mem bers of the cabinet as members of the commission, there are nrecodents for their appointment, notably the treaty of Ghent. The concluding portion of tho Span ish reply was received during the evening, but it wns not until a late hour that It was deciphered as a whole and gone over by the ambassador. No effort was made to communicate It to the United States government last night beyond a note to Secretary Day ndvlBlng him that the document had been received, but not disclosing Its contents. It Is probable that the reply will he delivered to the president be fore the cabinet meeting today, al though no hour has been fixed. There Is complete reticence In all quarters as to the text of the reply, but thero Is reason to believe It Is not an unqualified acceptance of the Amer ican terms, but Is framed on the theory of accepting the essentials and trusting to a hoped for conciliatory spirit on the part of this government to moderate to some extent features which the Spanish government seems to regard as unessential. LACK OF JplCINES. Insufflcent Medical Attendants For the Dally Wants of Shaffer's Command. Washington, Aug. 9, General Shaf fer, In a report to the war department, emphatically denies that ho Is respon sible for tho Inadequate provision made for tho sick nnd wounded brought from Santiago to tho United States on tho Seneca and Concho. Everything pos sible, he says, was sent with the. sick and wounded. The matter of shortage of water, ho says, is Inexcusable. He concludes his report as follows.; "There Is no excuse for lack of food, ts there has nt all times been plenty 5f that. 1 have no doubt that many Wore were put on the ship than should have been, owing to the great desire to get home, as they had the fear of yel low fever, and wro almost wholly Without hospital accommodation. "Tho sick and wounded hud only the clothing on that they wore Into battle, nnd of course that was ragged and worn out bv the time they reached home. There was none to Issue to them at the time they left, and their own extra clothing they could not get at. There hns never been a case of BUffeilng hero that could be remedied by the means at hand that was not at tended to. The surgeons have worked as well as uny men that ever lived, and their complaint bus been univer sal of lack of means and facilities. From the day tho forces left Tampa until the present time there have never been sufficient medical attendants or medicines for the daily wunts of the command. Three times since reaching Cuba has the cotpmand been almost cntliely without nicdlclnes." THAT "ROUND ROBIN." Malarial Fever Had Rendered Three fourths of Shaffer's Soldiers Unfit For Service. Washington, Aug. 9. General Shat ter telegraphed the president regard ing the publication of the "round robin" signed by the general olllcers of his command as follows: "I can very readily see what Intense excitement the publication must have occasioned a great deal more than the situation warranted. Situation Is great ly aggravated from the fact that be fore anv of the men were taken 111 they wore thoroughly exhausted. At least 75 per cent, of the command had been down with malarial fever, from which they recover very slowly and are In no condition to stand an attack of yellow fever or dysentery. Placed here now In the condition In which they were when they came here, I do not believe they would be In any particular danger. The lvglment of lmmuncs that recently arrived Is not sulferlng nt nil, und I do not believe they will. They can keep out of the sun, are well clothed and well fed. What put my command In Its present condition wns the twenty, days of the campaign when they had nothing but meat, bread and coffee, without change of clothes, without any shelter whatev er, and during the peilod twlci as stormy as It has been since the surren der. Fresh troops reaching here In the middle of August, with good camps, good wnter, abundance of tentnge, which they will find here, need not ap prehend serious danger. FIGHTING RESUMED AT MANILA.

Tho typical Spanish confusion is increasing. Troops are being drafted hack from Carbonera and adjacent posts to Algcciras for redraft at their homos, while armaments are still being poured into Algcciras.
