ITS WORK WILL BE SECRET
COMMISSION UNABLE TO GRANT
REQUESTS FOR HEARINGS.
The Results VIII Not BE Given Ont Until
the Work Is Finished-B Brief VIII
BE Received.

Quebec, Aug. 24.-It has been deter
mined by the members of the Joint ar
bitration commission that nothing in
detail of the commissions work will be
given TO the press until after its work
is finished. The reason for this is to
prevent, so far IS possible, the demands
for hearings before the commission.
Both the Americans and Canadians
have agreed to the amount Of data and
official information on all questions to
be considered and whatever additional
information is desired will be obtained
from available sources. For these rea-
sons II is thought a general discussion
of the work in the press would tend to
bring to Quebec daily delegations of
persons anxious to be heard, and result
in great annoyance and delay. On the
most important questions expert testf-
mony Will be heard, and where local
interests are to be seriously affected,
single representative Of the interests
may be heard. Beyond this the com
missioners say they will be unable to
grant any requests for hearings Briefs
and documents on all questions will be
received and considered.

public attention. IL is assiduously re-
ported that the sultan has left Maria

bassies on official visits, returning after
the uprising has been quelled.
Meanwhile, the rand vizier Is
alarmed at the increasing influence of
Germany and al the Italian demands

embassy To Europe, probably London
ana Rome, to settle outstanding
claims.
The Spanish gunboat General Valdez
arrived this morning with government
orders for the Spanish minister. There
Is great excitement at the Italian con-
sulate.
Mohammed Torres Is becoming threat
ening and the Italians are defiant, II
there IS no answer to the ultimatum a

There is absolutely no definite news
concerning the sultan, and the public
mind is undecided whether he is dead
or alive.

Within short time the entire block
surrounded by Third avenue. Fifty
fourth and Fifty-fifth streets seemed to
be doomed. The surrounding tene-

next ignited, and the bewildered ten
ants began to pour into the streets.
Alarm after alarm was turned i'm by
the police and the earlier arrivals of
nremen, until four alarms had sounded
and Is engines and five hook and ladder
trucks were on the scene. As a precau-
tion, several ambu!ances were called
from Bellevue and other hospitals.
Many thrilling rescues Of frightened
men, women and children were made by
the firemen.
At 2:30 a. m. the fire was under con-

A SECRET AGREEMENT.
The United States and England to Act To-
gether in the Far East

Sether In the Far East.
London, Aug. 24-The Times Madrid
correspondent says: The recent articles
in the Times, recommending the annex
alton of the Philippines by America.
are attracting much attention here.
They are regarded as confirming cur
rent rumors about a secret agreement
between the cabinets at London and
Washington for joint action in the far
Eats.
In any case, ii is feared that the re-
approachment, which unquestionably
exists, contains the germs of great in
ternatlonal complications. Three months
ago. when Spain suddenly found her
self alone face to face with a powerful
antagonist, such a prospect would have
been hailed with delight. because it was
believed that in a general imbroglio she
would be sure to find allies. Now the
political situation is better understood
and fears are expressed that in a gen.
eral conflict of the great powers, what
ever the result. Spain would have to
pay les pots casses.
El Liberal publishes a significant ar
ticle in this sense. Trying to forecast
the immediate future, il says: Two
contingencies are possible. Either the
great powers will come to an agree
ment about their respective spheres of
influence or there will be a great war.
in which England viii play a leading
part against Russia and France. In
the former case Spain would lose the
philippines, because they would be in
cluded in the partition. In the latter
case England would begin by an at
tempt TO get possession of the KEYS To
the Mediterranean, including Ceuta
ana the Balearic islands, which NAV he
regarded al the keyhoIe."
