There was some informal talk over the annexation | proposition and this was concluded by an agreement that Secretary Fos! should again meet the commissioners on Tuesday morning next for an extended conference. The commissioners wiil say very little on the subject of the ultimate niplishment of their object, but intimate that they feel very much encouraged.

They say it is prob- | able that the British minister had met the | United States® minister on the morning in question and had communicated verbully to him the information that he had just be- fére notified the officials of the new govern- ment of his recognition, or that he intended doing so. This gave to Mr. Stevens the ground for the statement contained in his dispatch. This is the only way the commis- | sioners can account for the matter.
