Americans and SpaH!nrds Come To-
Eether In Frenc!. Foreign ONCE.
Paris. Sept. 30 - The United States
peace commission held another session,
after which. accompanied by the Unit, d
States ambassador, General Horace Por-
ter, they drove to the foreign Office,
where our commissioners met the S.an-
ish commissioners. In addition to the
commissioners and the ambassadors,
the minister of foreign affairs, NJ. Del
casse. had invited the three head off,
Gals of the French foreign office, the
first secretaries of the embassies and
General Hesren, secretary Of the Elysee
palace.
The French newspapers continue to
comment upon the difficulties which the
two commissions will have to face by
reason Of their divergent instructions,
beyond which, it is said, they cannot
go. The Gil Bias says:
The Spanish government has given
ITS commissioners very precise instruc-
tions. They are to do their utmost to
have it admitted that there can be no
question of d!sputing the rights of
Spanish sovereignty over Manila, the
island of Luzon and the rest of the
archipelago outside of the naval sta
lions which Spain will cede at the
Mariana islands. On the other side,
the American commission before leav-
ing President Mckinley received from
him very precise instructions, from
which the commissioners cannot depart
The following is the text Of their in
structions: Spain cedes absolute sov5r-
eighty over the whole of the island of
Luzon. The other islands of the arch-
pelago will be replaced under the do
minion Of Spain on condition that
liberal government is accorded to the
inhabitants. Complete separation OF
church and state in the Philippines.
Spain cannot cede any other islands in
the group to any foreign power without
Americas consent. The United States
shall enjoy for all time the same CON-
mercial privileges as the most favored
nations, not exc ,pting Spain hers ~
The Gil Elias concludes with remark
ing, 1T is therefore to be feared that
for unhappy Spain the negotiations
which open on the 1st of October will
give no satisfaction"
