Washington Juno IS Tlio original plana
of campaign for tho conduct of tlio war
against Spain will bo adhered to and will
bo pushed with vigor Tho decision was
reached nt ft war council today at whlrh
wcro present Mr Algcr and Mr Intg As
Blatant Secretory Jlelklejolm and Captain
Mahan
Of course there will ho somo slight modi
flcatlona raado necessary hy tho changes
that havo occurred slnco tho beginning of
hostilities but these nftcr nil will not af-
fect tho general plan of operations
General Miles returned from Florida with
u storo of Infonnatlon respecting tho con-
dition of tho troops difficulties to bo ex-
pected In tho progress of tho campaign
needs in tho matter of transportation and
terminal facilities that will bo freely
availed of to correct tho defects In the
present system that experience has devel-
oped
Tho general was present during the
council Tho only reison tho commanding
general did not visit tho Whlj Houso yea
torday la becauso of a desire on tho part
of tho president that his war councillors
should havo tho brncllt of ttoncrnl Miles
recital of his observations at Una lmudj
Tho stories that havo been circulated of
friction between tho president and General
Miles arc pronouncjd as absurd There
wcro of coursj somo dlfterpnces of opinion
among thoso present nt iho war council
but there has bi > cn no disposition to re-
sist for nn Instant any conclusions whlcn
havo teemed the approal of tho presi-
dent
Tho official declaration that tho cam-
paign Is to bo pushed with vigor does not
necessarily mean an Immediate attack on
Havana although such advlco has been
tendered It does mean that tho very host
efforts uro to be put forth to put tho urmy
la condition where It can bo used with
overwhelming effect at any point at short
notice
To that end tho troop now In camp ato
to bo thoroughly traliiwpnwd Hardened
With an army nt command numbering no
less thau 100000 tho fate of Havana ran
not long remain In doubt when onee this
army Is hurled upon It
Meanwhile tho smaller expeditionary
movements are to go forward uiilntorriipt
edly When Santiago In captured ths
Ualnod regulars who do tho work thcro
will be pushed on to Porto Hlco
If all or moro nro needed for tho expedi-
tion tho provisional force referred in by
General Shatter In his orders probably will
bo directed from tho United States to gvtrrl
son the town of Santiago and relievo tiu
regulars
Secretary Alger said today that ho ha
as yet glen no orders for tho sending of

Word enmo to tho navy department that
the Spanish Cadbs fleet was rtlll hcndoi

couiee have long slnco escaped tho rnngu
of observation of the lookout nt Cllbroltir
All reports relative to the movement ul
this mysterious squadron nro received hj
tho naval officers subject to confirmation
for experience has taught them that the
Spaniards are freely aralltnc themselves o
the rnthor puerilo dcvlco uf Bending out
false reports of naval movements In the
hope of misleading our campaign directors

sentiments In regard to tho war brtween
tho United States and Spain nre consider-
ably changed during tho past month
A member of his majestys entourage In
forms the Associated Press that the per-
sistent statements of tho American nnd
Urltlsh press often coupled with Insulting
comment alleging that tho emperor In-
tends to actively Interfere In behalf of
Spain nnd Imputing to his mujcvjly senti-
ments which were actually foreign to him
at the opening ot hostilities have gieilly
annoyed the emperor aud tho constant ie
Iteration of thu enoncous statements us to
Germanys official attitude being un
friendly to the United States havo ills

Tho Informant of the Associated 1rcus
continued After the repeated official as-
surances which our government has given
of Us Intention to maintain tbo most stria
ncutiallty and hla majojDts brief but
pointed declaration to tho ttimc clfect lu
hl speech to the ckhstag It Is downright
lolly to speak of Germanys ulterior mo-
tives In connection with the war
There has not been n single act or word
of the government which could bs > coa
Bttued as uutilendly to thi Unite J States
It Is dliflcult to understand tho train of
reasoning by which tho Americans con
clude that either the emperor or the gov
ernment is unfriendly to them Kltro as
n nation or a belligerent Germany haj al-
ways kept faith In politics and In iilplo
macy Why then this studied att mpt ot
tho Ameilcau and Urltlsh press to construe
every act as an unfriendly step
NaturnUy tho ami tho

ment are seriously annoyed at tho wholly

but there is a limit to It

Tholr blockndo Is Insufficient They
boast that they nre about to remedy thn
situation In Cuba if they prove victorious
Mr Knight questions to himself ni to
what foim of relief they nro going to
give to Cuba It In difficult to answer
am question as to what tho United States
proposed on declaring wnr When they
did co they solemnly rejected tho Idea ot
annexation declaring thnt they would
tree Cuba and now thoy openly declare
that tV > Cubans aro not capable of gov-
erning themselves If tho Cubans succeed
In gnlnlng Independence tho island would
bo In a state of anarchy Thoy aro dally
allowing in Ihelr newspapers that the
Americana must govern Cuba
The correspondent would llko tn learn
how the rebels would reeeivo American

would not annexation Impel tho country
to perpetual revolution aud misery And
hu continues saying that somo go farther

nnd that is taken Into account In Kitrope

Il > Ii > iiuitH Opinions
Washington June IS A cable report
from Madrid that newspapers today publish
u manifesto In favor ot peaco was at flist
looked upon by tho officials hero as an Im-
portant document On fuller consideration
however tho Impression prevails that thU
might bo little more than the expression
from somo of thu many parties In Spain
Aside from tho liberal and couservatlvc
parties there nro niiny lessor factions and
wings ono of which n least has favored
peace although tho elTma suggested aro
not likely to mako pcfoe possible Beyond
reading the press report with Interest the
officials hero have received no Information
that Spain was considering a peace move-
ment
At tho samo tlmo there would bo little
surprise hero If any actual peace move-
ment backed by tho Saga3ta ministry us
Mimcd definite shape at any Uino
Indeed it Is generally believed that the
Spanish government would be glad to se-
cure peace and that It has already cn
deavoicd through Senor Castillo tho Span-
ish ambassador at Paris to indues the
Iowcrs to inaugurate a peace movement
which would savo Spain from complete
humiliation and at the sams time glvo her
terms preserving her colonial possessions
Of courco from tho standpoint of offi-
cials here no such terms aro possible and
consideration of them even could not be en-
tertained Now that war ha3 progressed
until Admiral Uevvcyjls practically In pos
stfsipn of tho Philippines It is likely that
tho Spanish peaco proposition would have
to go considerably beyond tho EUrrendcr
nnd evacuation of Cuba
At tho various embassies and legations

Madrid report of a publication of a peace
man fedio Ono well known diplomat
