EUROPE RESENTS 1T.
10th to See United States a Factor in
Eastern Question.

Paris. Nov. 2S.-The two peace com
missions were in separate session all this
morning.
The situation generally is unchanged
from yesterday evening and it is now
openly admitted on all sides that the
Spanish answer, which will be made
within three hours, will be an acceptance
of the American demands.
There is no denying that the whole Eu-
ropean continent will bitterly resent
American acquisition of the Philippines.
This sentiment is not confined to diplO-
mats; but especially here in Paris it is
the opinion constantly heard in the high
est French society.
1t is known that a high official of the
French foreign office said yesterday
"The appearance of the Americans IN
Eastern waters is a disturbing factor to
the whole of Europe. Americans, as is
we'll known, lack diplomatic manners,
and will surely bring constant trouble to
all Of us
As TO the general sentiment, w T.
Stead, who has just returned here from
a tour of France Belgium, Germany,
Russia, Austria and Italy, and who has
seen the highest politicians in each coun-
try, and in some cases their rulers, said
today to q correspondent of the AsSociat-
ed press:
''The immense majority of Europeans
are of course absolutely ignorant of what
has happened. Intent upon their daily
toll, they neither know nor care what
occurs in the other hemisphere. But Eu-
ropeans who read the newspapers are
able to form what may be called public
opinion III the Old World
They are practically unanimous on the
matter. Outside of England | had not
met a single nOn-American who was not
opposed to the expansion of America
Nor through my whole tour of Europe
have / met European who did not re-
ceiye the protestations of the genuine sin
certify with which the Americans entered
upon the war with more or less mock in
credulity."
Mr.. Stead reports that the bitterest
hostility Of ali was found at the Vatican.
Watertown republican. [volume] (Watertown, Wis.) 1860-1906, 1898-11-30

important Visayas group from the re-
mainder of the Philippines by a decree,
and information was quietly conveyed to
the state department to the effect that
certain European power was engaged in
an effort to obtain, through an agreement
with Spain, the important island Of Pala-
wan. lying to the southwest Of the Phil
ippine group and commanding an impor
tant position in the trade between China
and Australia.
It was recognized that the Sulu islands
might become an object of attack, fo1
their status is not quite like that of the
remaining of the Philippine group. Spain's
own title to them was not established
beyond a doubt until 1877. when Germany
and Great Britain both acknowledged
Spanish sovereignty in return for certain
concessions as to freedom Of trade and
fisheries SO far as the islands were con
cGrned.
1t happened, perhaps fortunately for ou1
contention, that the Sulu islands belonged
to the Philippines. that few years later
Spain herself issued a decree declaring the
islands to be part of the Philippines
and extended the authority of the cap
tain general at Manila over the group.
The trade concessions above referred to
were confined to Great Britain and Ger
many and just what effect annexation of
the Philippines to the United States will
have on them is a matter to be hereafter
decided. A precedent close at hand Is
afforded by the French annexation of
Madagascar. In that case the United
States had special treaty with the Mala-
gaSy government under which exports
from the United States were admitted to
the island and at a certain fixed and ia
vorable ad valorem rate.
The French government, which ac-
Quired the island by conquest, claimed
that this treaty should give way to the
ordinary French tariff and the United
States was obliged to accept that conten-
ton. In the case of Hawaii it had been
determined that all treaties between Ha-
wall and foreign governments were termi-
mated by the annexation of the former,
and though the same tariff rates are still
maintained they exist, not by treaty right,
but simply at the pleasure of the Presi-
dent and Congress until such time as
permanent form of government shall re-
place the present government.
Therefore it cannot now be fOretold
whether the special privileges held by
England and Germany in the Sulu isl
ands are to continue, and it is proba bic
that the subject will be dealt with in
connection with the whole problem that
will be presented to our government in ar
ranging tariff system and shipping laws
for the colonies.
1t is believed that the definition of the
limits of the Philippine group in the
American demands was as follows From
5 degrees 81 minutes north latitude to
10 degrees 3S minutes north latitude, and
from III degrees east longitude to 126
degrees east longitude, thus covering
about 1000 miles north and south and
600 miles east and west.
