Special ("or. Times-Visitor. Washington. August 8. 189S. If the Spanish ministry had any proper idea trains loaded with cavalry Ti nt the public sentiment in this country i South will pass hrouarh Hah ;: it would not have wasted ten days in de ciding whether to accept the terms of peace offered. If they knew a good thing whe"n they saw it they would jump at those terms. In the statement of the terms of peace, last week, the admin istration was given credit to which ft was not entitled. Instead of providing that claims of Americans for property destroyed m Cuba should be paid by Spain and disclaiming responsibility forSpanish bonds issued as a lein on the revenues ofCuba and Porto Rico, It mentioned neither, leaving those troublesome matters to be added to the numerous other troublesome things that will have to be tackled by the commission that will negotiate the treaty of peace. The only certain things in the terms of peace are that Spain shall evacuate Cuba and Porto Rico and that we shall retain Manila and Manila Bay; everything else Is to be settled by the commission. Mr. McKinley apparentlv fully be lieves that the Spanish ministry is honest in informally telling him that it intends to accept his terms of peace, although officially it still remains si lent. His faith is so strong that the orders for the re-inforcement of Gen. Miles have been held up, and that nothing is being done to send Gen. Merrill the reinforcements that he has asked for. If Spain accepts the terms, these hold-ups will do no harm, but should Spain be foolish enough to re ject the terms, they maybe fraught with serious consequences.

To what point the troops are going is not know and there is a eontlict of opinion even among the railroad men as to what regiments will go through. It is known that Mr. H. S. Leanl. of the Seaboard, is on the sixth section and that he was wired to go to South Carolina to meet the Ninth Cavaltry. but a telegram received by the Times Visitor stated that Adjutant General Corbin had decided that the Ninth and Tenth ("avnlry would be the last regi ments to leave Santiago. The first section of the train left Monroe this afternoon shortly after 1 o'clock, and the railroad officials here expect the trains to begin passing icaieign at about , o'clock and the last to pass about 9 o'clock tonight. The cause of delay was at Atlanta where the officers caused the trains to be held for twenty-four hours. The Atlanta papers contain no mention of the troops and from no source can the names of the regiments be obtained to day.
