Paris. Dec 12.--The United States
Peace Commissioners rested yesterday,
after the long strain Of daily
conferences and almost daily sessions
with the Spaniards. the intensity OF
which they hardly realized until IL was
over. Warm personal friendships and
mutual regard have arisen between
the two Commissions as the result of
their extended controversy at close
quarters. Today several members of
both Commissions exchanged calls.
The American Commissioners unoffic-
ally informed the Spahiards that they
would be glad to have the two Com
missions dine together. The reply,
which like the invitation. was con-
vcyed automatically through a third
party was that the Spaniards would
be most pleased, but feared IL would
be inadvisable because il might be mis-
construed at Madrid, where. already.
much feeling existed against the Span
ish Commissioners.
Several members OF the United States
Commission were inclined, at first. to
publish the text of the treaty. but SEN
ator Frye made a long plea for the
observance of courtesy toward the
United States Senate, and his argu-
ments prevailed.
Further details, however, have been
learned as to the wording OF the treaty,
which provides that Cuba is TO be re-
linquished and that Porto Rico and the
Philippines are to be ceded. The Amer
leans are to pay for the repatriation
OF the Spanish troops from all the coll
onies. The Spaniards are to return all
prisoners held by them. They are TO
retain possession OF all military stores
and munitions of war in the Philippines,
and of such ships as have not been
captured.
The commercial treaties between the
two nations, which the war ruptured,
are to- be renewed at the convenience
OF the two nations.

PITTSBURGH, August II. = The

morrow:
The growing Improvement in the
iron and steel trade Is noticeable at
nearly all points. although at some of
the principal centers the Improvement
Is rather slight this week. 1t seems
that the situation Is better in the west
than 1t is in the east, however, as Ee~
York reports no material change With
the midsummer dullness still relgnips.
The orders for pig Iron are light, but
consumption is large. There are re-
ports OF big steel ruil contracts having
been closed. The finished lines OF iron
and steel are rather quiet. At PhIla4
delphIa there is general feeling that
the pig iron trade is very close to an
Improvement. All pig Iron users are
watching the market closely. There Is
better demand for bars. The mer-
chant steel market has a flrmer tone
and the plate mills are running at full
capacity. Structural material Is in
good demand and makers cannot prom
ise deliveries early enough.
At Chicago prices are slightly
stronger In the pig iron trade. Some
OF the southern furnaces have ad-
vanced prices on No. foundry In the
western market and the southern fur
naces are being pushed for deliveries
Considerable bar material has been sold
for car building, and there has been
some heavy transactions in bridge ma
teriai. Merchant steel is in good de-
mand.
At Cincinnati the iron and steel trade
Is rapidly recovering from the efIects
OF the war. The pig Iron trade is fair at
former prices, but In finished lines show
no material change. IN the Wheeling
district some Improvement Is seen all
along the line OF trade. Prospects in
the sheet trade are good, and the mer-
chant pipe trade is prosperous. The
