OF the last of the Spanish troops is con-

and that this government will not unnec-

solutely no progress was made at yester-

commissioners In Paris

the Spanish commissioners continued their
efforts today to lead the American com

missionsrs into discussion OF the as
sumption of Cuban Indebtedness by the

leagues declined to discuss these matters
on the ground that they were irrelevant

Just what programme will be followed

not be stated, for the reason that the au-
thorlties have no Information showing what
spain's next move will be, aud the first
move on that day must come from Senior

will bring new arguments before the Amer
