4 SCATHlI6 CRITICISM
A PRECEDENT IN MEXICO
He Oharacssri.ss - Arrangement Made
in,Paris - . vsss Ravishmsnt.
Porto nioo Alone Worth
=, Douhbo the Sum.

New York. Nov. 30.-Hannis Taylor.
late American minister to Spain, pub
fishes in the DECEMBER number of the
North American Review a scathing
criticism of the work OF the American
peace commission. Mr. Taylor contends
that in the nesotiations, with Spain re-
specting Cuba. Porto Rico and the
Philippines. the members sf the COM
missions should have been guided by
the precedent set by this country In It's
dealing with Mexico after the e~victor-
ious issue of the Mexican war. Then.
he says. we refused. as Mexico lay
helpless at our feet. to take from her
a single square mile OF territory by
right of conquest. Our commissioners
were instructed to offer her &11. 900. 900
in cash and the assumption upon our
part OF more than S3.o00.000 due from
her to American citizens. as compen-
sation for the area out OF which has
been carved California. Nevada, Ari-
zona. Utah and New Mexico.
And thus" says Mr.. Taylor. was
established q new principle OF moral
law. which stands alone. perhaps. in
the annals of nations"
Mr.. Taylor contends that with the
conquest OF Spain we have another
vanquished nation at our feet. and that
we owe to Spain all the consideration
and justice that can be due to the weak
from the strong. especially as Spain
had been an old and good friend. with
whom we had never before broken OF
diplomatic relations.
The Arrangement which has been
concluded by the American commission.
Mr.. Taylor characterizes as a vast
ravishment.
.wa have ref,,sad arhitra,ion W.
have summarily demanded the surren-
der of the entire Philippine archipela-
go and as q salve TO Spain we have
rendered $50. .000. 600
The war has cost us directly about
sle5.ooo.ooo. and as compensation for
Rico. which can be valued at not much
less than double that amount IL Is
difficult to understand. therefore. why,
In dealing with Cuba and the Philip
pines we should have been unwilling
to recognise those reasonable and nat
urai equities which follow acquired
territory.
In the case Of the Philippines. we
have admitted that. so far as the debts
of those islands represent expenditures
for the Improvement of the country.
they must run with the land and con-
stitute charge upon II. Upon what
grounds have we rejected the applica-
tion of that elementary principle OF
law and common honesty in the case
OF Cuba. The pretense that II cannot
be there applied because we do not
intend to accept sovereignty OF Cuba
Is without avail, for as soon as Cuba
is evacuated by the Spanish troops the
United States will exercise a qualified
sovereignty over the island and bring
a military government there to rigidly
enforce all laws for the purpose of COL
lecting revenues. both external and in
ternal, a condition which must exist
until congress orders otherwise. In
the case Of Cuba. as well as in that Of
the Philippines. the amount of pacific
expenditures made by Spain for the
permanent Improvement of the island
should have been recognized as a legal
charge upon It,"

ministration known as the United

completely. The federal organizers to-
day formally declared the union dis

collapse is due To the failure Of the
troops OF Honduras. acting in behalf

the outbreak In Salvador against the
proposed federation and to force SAL
vador into the union. The prospects
are peaceful.
