OPINION " WASHINGTON.
OFFICIALS BELIEVE THAT SPAIN WILL SIGN
A PEACE TREATY.

Washington. Nov. l5.-Administrauon officials do
not share the opinion expressed in some quarters
THAI the Paris Peace Commission will fail to agree
on treaty. This opinion is not based on any
epecinc r formation received from Paris. but rather
on the fact that 10y Withdrawing from the con-
ference Spain has nothing to gain and all 10 lose
Ii IS undoubtedly true that should the Spaniards
adopt this course they would sacrifice the indeln-
nifty this Government Is now disposed to grant
and would also prec!pate trouble for themselves
All along the lire The United States undoubtedly
would immediately take forcible possession OF the
entire Philippine group. and at once begin mill
tary and naval campaign which would end only
with unconditional surrender OF whatever terri
tory this Government Nigh. see ht TO demand l.
IS believed that the United states at TINS tim"
would consent 10 make a cash payment or from
