This situatton enu ho explained In a few words : Under the law which provitics for the ' raising ot the volunteer nrmy , that army goes out of existence as soon a the vnr ceases , "When thin law was framed It was not for a moment SUPPOSC(1 that nftcr Ilie vflr hati OII(1C ( there wouhl be any necessity of keeping thn army Intact , The developments of the war make It very evident that In- SteflI ( of semUng the army back to clvii life , fully 100,000 men will continue to be needed. It is the present intention to distribute no less than 50,000 soldiers throughout Cuba , with 10,000 in the PhilIppines and probably 20,000 , In I'nrto Rico. Under the law , as soon as hostIlitIes cease the volunteer army Is disbanded and the regular ormy goes back to Its peace footing , thus leaving only 27,000 men In the service. This is a total far too sniali for the work that will be required - quired , Consequently the aid of congress will be needed to frame new lawn which vill keep an adequate army for garrison purposes - poses , "In addition to this , laws must be passed to meet the new renuirementa of government - mont in the Philippines and Porte Rico. 'The president Is naturally averse to calling' congress together during the hot weather and it may be decided that the war is not ended until tile senate has rati- flel the treaty of peace. in this case congress - gress will not meet until the first or middle of Sepcmber , as it will take at least a month or. eix weel < i for the full details of the treaty to be discussed and framed. The present outlook is , however , for no extra session at. a much earlIer period , in the hope that its work can be concluded before the fall campaign has reachel its height , " COLBY MAY GO TO JOIN MiLES lildiCahlOfiS 'J'IiiitIIis HI'IgflhI.

VIen Note Vns Firpit Presented. \VASI1INGTO , Aug. 1.-At tlu' French embassy the following authorized statement was made todayL When the French nmbaasatlor went on Saturday to the White Ilotiso 110 went fully enabled to discuss , at the Spanish govern- mont's point of view , the propositions of the government of the United States. These views of the Spanish government were recoive(1 by M , Cambon subsequent to his first visit of Tuesday to the presi- dent. dent.The The foregoing constitutes all that the F'ronth embassy would say with authority on the subject , and It is the only statement obtainable from an authorized source other than these of an anonymous character , which vlli give an understanding of the measure of tlje ambassador's authority in represent- log the views of Spata on the settlement of peace. Aside from the foregoing authorized state. ment , and without giving them any author- lied form because of their Juxtaposition with the foregoing , considerable light can be thrown upoa tim official character in which the French ambassador had his three hours' conference with the president on Saturday. At the first meeting of the ambassador and the president , M , Catnbon'g authority was strictly lltflitel to that qf being the bearer of Spain's communication , Ho had no aUthority - thority whatever to speak In the name of Spain beyond presenting Spain's communica- tion. In yio'v , however , of the fact that the United States government would make a speedy reply to the Spanish proposition it was deemed desirable that M. Camboa should be clothed by the Spanish government with a larger measure of authority ( lion that of merely conveying and receiving communications - cations passing between the two govern- ments. Accordiugly , the desirability of this course was made known to the authorities at Madrid , The latter shored in the view and as a result the Spanish minister of foreign affairs , Duke Almadovar de Rio , cabled to the French embassy on inst Friday changing and enlarging the scope of M. Cambon's authority train that in which the original Spanish proposition was presented. The dispatch from Duke Almodovnr do Rio was most complete In its dealings with the subjects of controversy between the United States and Spain which would be involved in the discussion of terms of peace. Besides treating each subject involved it fully enabled the ambassador to discuss from the Spanish government's point of view the propositions about to be made by the Unitetl States on all questions of pence. Of course , between Tuesday and Friday there was no time for mailing written credentials , in the usual sense employed - ployed in diplomatic intercourse. The matter - ter being urgent , and about to culminate in a meeting at the White House , thC in- structiona were necessarily embraced in a cable dispatch bearing the signature of the Spanish minister of foreign affairs. Even the dispatch was in cipher , so bat it lacked those usual formalities of written credentials by which the right of a diplomatic - matic offlctal to express the direct views of a foreign government are made known. The essential point , however , free from technicalities , was that M. Cambon received from the Spanish minister of foreign affairs - fairs these enlarged instructions , permitting him to speak the views of Spain upon van. Otis points at issue and thus to bring the two governments , the United States and Spain , into direct discussion. It waB under such circumstances that ( lie French am- hnacador anti his secretary , M. Thiebaut , made their notable call at the White House Inst Saturday. M. Cambon was in posses- sian of the enlarged instructions and the conference proceeded with the ambassador expressing the views of the Spanish govern- mont. The omcial communicatIon when made public , it is understood , will make this authority of M. Cambon plain.

VAS1IINGTON , Aug. 1.-All eyes turned today toward Madrid , for it was realized that upon the Spanish cabinet depended the restoration of poace. It was announced bore , in a quarter that removed the Infor- nation from any question of necuracy. that the decision of the Spanish government was not to be submitted before tomoow at the earliest. In the absence of any new phase In the negotiations here today , spbeulntion iiittur- ally turned backward toward the remarkable meeting at the White House Saturday , itnd great interest was manifested in every pat'- ticular respecting that event. A ilieposi. tion WtB shown in sohie 4uarters to que- ( bit the authority of the French ambassa- tlor to act as lie did , representing Spain. BIt it can be stated that , regardless of any technical loint , such as tim absence of signed , scaled and delivered mail credentials - tials which , of course , could not reach hero in the little time at Iland , that the presl- dent regarded M. Cambon as duly qualified to act as a representative of the Spanish government in the negotiations , subject , at course , as ae almost all ministers and ambassadors - bassadors , to the reference of the work required - quired by them to the government they reps resent , for final approval. ( tunhificil to Coniluct Negotiations , M. Cambon made it so clear that ho Iiac been (0113' instructed on every Point likely to rise in the negotiations that. the president - dent was satisfied that his accepting him as tile representative of Spaip in this mattin vast saving of time would be effected and a poInt of tii utmost importance , that the negotiations , would ho technically conductott without thu interposition of any neutral government. However , any quostioii thttt might ] di.ve arisen as to the powers of the French urn- bassador was set At rest by a iiort , guarde1 011(1 concise statement issued today fkonl tile embassy itself. Then discussIon turned , op the nature of the change made at the instance - stance of :11. Cambon in the list of American demands. It was contended in some quarters - ters that no change had boon made , in 0th. era than an important modification had de- velopod. As a matter of fact , as to the importance - portance of this change there is a difforeno of opinion between the partics , the adminla- ( ration looking upon it. as inconsequential , while M , Cambon attaches importance to IL However this may he , as the administra- tlon thinks the change is not consequential -aOd it certainly does not affect the principle - ciple of the ilocuinent-it might be well to recapitulate briefly just what the demands of the United States were. As to Cuba , it is demanded that Spain Is to release her government , possession and control , It will be noticed that nnthln is sntd of Cuban independence and that the acceptance of this position leaves th United States free to deal with the Island as It may deem best. Porto Rioo , with the small Islands aclia- cent and embraced within her jurisdiction , is to be ceded unconditionally to the United States. . , . , , 5 ' Ono'ot tim Ladronof isihuds lsfo' bo coded to the United States as a coaling station , These three conditiofis beiug granted by Spain , are to be taken as part payment in lieu of the full indemnity. What further payment shall be required is to be determined by a commission with authority from the president to act , subject to his approval. Whether Spain will retain poe- session of the Philippines as a whole or in part , is left to that commission to de- tormine. The reason for deferring the do- cislon as to the future of the islands in this fashion is because the administration is not yet satisfied itself ; it Is not clear at this moment what sound policy should die- tate in the matter , lIIItns'y ( .overneist at xlIii , iIla , Meanwhile , and until the commission has satisfactorily disposed of the future of the ililancla , the United States is to exercise a military government over Manila harbor and bay. The commission will be acttially a peace commission and vill prepare ( he treaty which Will terminate formally the war with Spain. I-owever , a suspension of hostilities may be sooner declared when the Spanish government shall definitely ac cept these conditionS and renounce its nu. thonity over Cuba and Porto Rico. Notwithstanding the fact hint he has iow a direct cable to Washington , General ? Iile sent no message during the day nail all heard ( rain him wan contained in a be. hated telegram , announcing the arrival at Pence of the alvance of General Schwan's brigade.
