Firmly but courteously, the president has declined the earnest ap p.al of tbe French ambassador to mod i(y the I'nlted Statea' demands, ex cept In alight and comparatively unim ji rtant vaspects. There is no doubt that Ibe pence ntgotlatlons are progressing to the entire satisfaction of the presi dent and tbe members of the cabinet. A statement to that effect was made to day by a high oflleial of the adminis tration, whw said that In a very short time there would be complete cessation cf hostilities. I The conferonce yesterday afternoon at the wnlte house in which the pres ident. M. Cambon and Judge Day par ticipated was devoted almost entirely to a discussion of details which are re garded by the president as unimport ant, and hence the requests of the j French ambassador for the most part will be acceded to. One of these was (that tbe commission to be appointed I to settle the terms of peace shall meet 'outside of the limited States. The Ma drid government, through Cambc»n, pro pounded a number of questions as to it. e time when Spain would be expected to evacuate Cuba and the territory to he ceded to the United States, and as to what provision would ho made by United States to protect the interests of Spanish subjects on these glands wmle he evacuation is in progress Cambon was Informed upon all these points, presumably to his eatl«f dctlon. .There was one point which tho Span ish, Judging from the communication to j their representative here, fall to fully comprehend, and Judge Day's rail upon the ambassador last night was for the purrxise principally of making perfectly clear this one point, which was that of the evacuation of Cuba, Porto Rico and one of the Dadrones to be selected by the United States and the permanent cession to this government of all these islands, except Cuba, was made a con dition precedent to all peace negotia tions, and until these terms had been fully complied with this government could nol consent to enteitain any peace proposition whatever. Shafter’s Army. After the conference at the white house with Judge Day and Mr. Dong, the President' had a conference with Oeneral Alger, Mr. Dang ami,Assistant Secretary of the Navy Allen, al which action was taken for the prompt trans portation ■of .General Shafter's army from Cuba to Montauk Point. D. I. Tbe conference occupied a couple of hours, and th re was an informal gen eral presentation cf the needs of prompt action and the means at hand in effect the transfer.

Y., Aug. 4.—A difference of opinion as to the abilities of candi dates for tb# nomination as district at torney by the gift of the Kepublicana of Genesee county led to a deadlock In the rounty convention that lasted for several hours. The candldntee were Fred H. Dunham, of Hatavla. and Fred Randall, of Leßoy. brotbers-in ldw. Present District Attorney Leseur captured the delegates from one town, and that tied the votes of the brothers j in-law, thus standing 24 to 24. Ballot after ballot was tnken without success. The fifty-fourth ballot was called then. The town* of Alexander, Staf ford and Oakfleld, which had been di viding their ballot between the broth ers-in-law. withheld their votes until all the other delegations had voted. Then all these votes were recalled and every one went for Randall, who was nominated. AT THE'i NAVY YARD. The Government Is to Spend a Large Sum Thereon, Washington, Aug, 4.—Plans are be ing made by the navy department to expend about $750,000 for improve ments ut the New York navy yard. The next great piece of work to b.? under taken will be the rebuilding of timber dock No. 2, at a probable cost of $300,- UOO. A new entrance to the dock will be constructed, and some general al terations will be made in the main structure. The work will not begin, however, until dry dock No. 3 Is ready for use, which will probably be in about two weeks. Other plans of the navy department contemplate the building of large stor age houses at the navy yard costing probably SIOO,OOO, It is also intended to make an extension of the rallwuy facilities at the yard, and this will probably require an, expenditure of about $25,000.

Aug. 4.—Th# naval of flrera are considering the formation of a big squadron to be stationed In Euro pean water* after the war I* over.

In late years the Euro pran station has dwindled In Import une.? to the United States until -mly three ship#, not armored, were Kept there. The naval officials have begun to talk over the eharcater of the new European equndron and have practi cally reached the conclusion that a strong and formidable force should bn sent there, not because of any likeli hood of trouble with European nations, but to show the people over there tire ship* that whipped Spain's navy.
