PHILIPPINE QUESTION.
It's Development Watched With
Keen Interest at Vienna.

LONDON, Aug. l9.-The Vienna corre-
srcndent OF the Times says:
The development OF the Philippines
question will be watched here with keen
interest. Circumstances APPEAR to point TO
the retention Of the islands by America.
The fact that Senator Davis, who is
public advocate of annexation, and Sec
retary of State Day, a supporter of the
Hawaiian policy are appointed commits
sioners is regarded as indicating that
President Mckinley favors their reten-
ton
1t is acknowledged that President Nc
Kinley has hitherto manifested except on
al diplomatic tact in his treatment, both
of the Spanish Government and of public
opinion in the United States. He conduct
ed negotiations with such foresight and
consideration that thei Madrid Cabinet has
been able gradually to accustom the pop
ulation to the inevitable sacrifices imposed
by the outcome of the war
The United States are deeply interested
from commercial and industrial stand
point in the future of East Asia. They
have the most favorable geograp phical sit
uation of all the great manufacturing
countries competing there, and it is ar
gued that such an enterprising people
will not willingly forego the pres
ent opportunity Of securing a foot
ing in those seas which will en-
able them to establish large mer-
camille emporiums, similar TO those al
ready possessed by the Englishmen on
the mainland, and which other States are

about to found. This consideration is
expected to have weight in the final deci-
sion of the Philippine question.
There is a suspicion here that the meet
ing of the Peace Commission in Paris was
intentionally delayed to enable the .prepar-
alton and formation OF public opinion i'll
Spain to accept Americas new coioniz-
ing role in its full extent.
An evening paper expresses the belef
that it is impossible that the Philippines
shall ever again form a part OF the Span
ish possessions, and the question of how
the derelict archipelago shall be ultimate
ly divided is regarded as serious, .diplo-
matte problem. The papers generally ex-
pect that RusSia's attitude Will prove an
important factor in the situation. The
German press has raised the bogie of in
tervention talk America has already
given indications that she would unhesi-
tatingly resent interference, without
waiting to- count the cost. Moreover, any
such Interference would only hasten an
ALglo-American alliance, which the
Powers are anxious to prevent, besides
giving the United States Japan's sympa-
thy
Therefore. it is probable that the Pow
ers, distracted by mutual jealousies, will
hesitate to come to an open breach with
what the ''Fremdenblatt" designates as a
gigantic world power, whose conscious
ness of innate strength is immensely in
creased by its present victory.

LONDON, Aug 19-The morning papers
comment upon the proposed immense in

The Standard" says: Such fleet
operating from Manila as base, would
be able to exercise considerable infiu-
ence upon the progress of events in
Chinese waters, and, added 20 the English
China squadron and the Japanese navy
would make a mighty armament indeed
The Standard" suggests that this con-
sderation may make Russia pause.
