Washington. Oct. 20. - Touching the
bitter complaints that are made in the
French papers against what they de-
nominate the uncompromising and un-
yielding attitude of the American COM
missioners and their refusal to consider
propositions to arbitrate radical differ
ences between the two bodies, it Is said
here that presumably the Spanish COM
missioners went to Paris under In
structions quite as comprehensive as
those supplied to the American COM
missioners. Any suggestion of al bi:ra-
ton would lie out of place in connec-
ton with the peace commission and
should it come to an irreconcilable diff
ference between the two commissions
there can be but one arbitrament, that
of the sword, for which our government
Is fully prepared, but which 1t does not
expect to be obliged to enter upon.
