SPAIN HAS FRIENDS
AMONG PARIS PAPERS

/ PARIS. Nov. 3-The generally ac
cepted view here of the peace negotia-
tons is that the Spaniards will not
agree to the propositions submitted by
the Americans TO take the Philippine
islands and to reimburse Spain for the
money spent upon permanent improve
ments in those islands. But there is
conflict of opinion as to whether or not
the Spanish Commissioners will to-
morrow present a counter proposition.
This matter, it is added, was undecided
at o'clock this afternoon.
The Echo de Paris to-day expresses
strong approval of the speech delivered
at Worcester, Mass, by Senator Hoar.
in which he denounced the so-called
policy of American extension. The pa
per mentioned quotes the speech fully
and remarks that all American political
men apparently do not agree with the
policy of conquest.
The Figaro says: The peace nego-
tiations have reached very critical
point Up to yesterday the Spanish
delegates had received no definite in
structions from Madrid. Will the Span
ish Government accept the American
proposition? We doubt it
The Petit Bleu remarks: "One must
admit. in looking beneath the surface,
that the late war has completely
changed the American character. Out
side of being anxious merely for COM
mercial supremacy and playing small
political part, save regarding the South
American republics, the United States
felt no desire to interfere in European
politics. But everything changes very
suddenly. After the success against
Spain the American Government felt
herself capable of taking part in Euro
pean politics. and the advances of Great
Britain showed the American Ministers
they could speak up. This popular feel
ing has induced the American Govern
ment to demand the whole of the Phil
ippine archipelago, when, at the outset,
a part of the Philippines was all that
was demanded. This new demand ex-
ceeds a war indemnity, and this is the
weak point which American diplomacy
has to encounter. The Spanish Govern
rnent is at the end of her resources,
and hopeless as it is for her to attempt
to master the insurrection in the Phil
ippine Islands, even if they were hand
ed over to her tomorrow, it is evident
that If. instead of using the word
abandonment 'cession' against a cash
Indemnity is spoken of, the Spanish and
American delegates may come to terms.
The. American delegates have made
several offers and have at the present
time proposed the sum of 100000 900.
The Spaniards want more and have de-
manded 800, 900, 600"

Amend the Civil Service
Rules

NEW YORK. Nov. 3.-The Herald's
Washington correspondent telegraphs: I

well as the civil war in appointments to
all Government Offices
Anticipating the adoption of the Presi-
dents recommendation Secretary Long

regulations within a few days d.
recting that in the employment OF
labor preference be given, as in
the case of veterans of the
war of the rebellion, to men who served
in the Spanish war. This order contem-
plates that preference be shown first to
those who were wounded in battle or
who were actually at the front.

APPEAL TO EUROPE
:: -. WOULD BE FUTILE

MADRID, Nov. 3-The announce
11ent of the intentions of the United
States regarding the Philippines has
greatly excited the public here. 1t is

Not summers self was ever half 20 fair
As this white winter wrapped In srmino
fleece,
a royal silence brooding everywhere
And all the world q voiceless dream Of peace.
Amber and opal, faintest pearl and rose,
Orange and purple In the sunset sky;
In fiery hues the wide west flames and CLOVIS,
Nor fades till stars are shining out on high.
Ger steel blue lakes the sheen Is bright like
mail,
The trees In naked beauty lift their limbs,
The wind is hushed that erst did sob and wall
Softer its tones than mothers cradle hymns
Strange, silent winter, fair beyond belief,
White robed and fair and dreamy as the night,
Forgetting pain and care and JOY and grief,
Creeps solemnly apace and shrouds the light.

CRUSHED BY HER CROWNi

deal with the mental martyrdom of the

modesty would not let her put into speech
the questions that burned IN her heart.
