COLONEL GEORGE E. WAKING. of preparation i'll the department of transportatl1n. Of the I2 transports owned by the government on the At iantic coast all but four are undergoing repairs
 IT is not contemplated that the day of the taking formal possession of Cuba will be postponed beyond Dec. l, and Jan. has been fixed upon as the limit within which the evacuation must take place. But it is not believed that this great undertaking can be accomplished in 50 short time.
 The report that this government would contribute toward the expenses of trans portation is denied with emphasis at the office of the secretary of war. The au- thorities do not seem in such haste since the dangers to our troops have been em- phasized.
 In connection with the relief of Gen. Graham it is stated that General Law ton will go to Cuba with part of the Second army corps to be designated later.
 Lieutenant Colonel A. s. Rowan, who was detailed to make a tour of explora- ton through Cuba, has just returned to Washington. He travelled from Santia- % to Pinar del Rio, about 800 miles, visiting the camps of insurgents as he went He found them tractable and disposed to yield to the policy of this government.
 As nearly as can be ascertained there are about 60, GOO volunteers and 2o,oOt guerrillas, and Colonel Rowan does not view the problem of disarming them as simple. Colonel Rowan believes thai the Spanish troops will be drawn i'll to- ward Havana as far as possible, so that this point may be the last one to De evacuated. He called attention to the fact that the customs receipts there now are about $1, 100000 month.-an ln' duce ment that would cause Blanco te finger as long as possible.
 Colonel Rowan's views in developed form, together with recommendations of certain points for garrisons, will DC comprised in his report

French Newspapers Assert All Fora mer Agreements Are Void Unless

WILL APPEAL TO
 THE CIVILIZED NATIONS.
If the United States Forces the Pres ent Demand as to the Philippines Spain Will Make an Appeal
 Fer Help.

Paris, Nov. 2.-French papers derive much news of the work of the peace commission from Spanish sources, and therefore the morning papers here yes terday are interesting as indicating the atmosphere i'll Spanish quarters and the trend of French views and tendencies. It must be recallad that the Spanish ut- terly accepted the refusal of the United States government to assume any Span ish debt, and the Cuban question has been set away to wait place in the final treaty, providing all differences on the question of the Philippines shall not prevent the making of any treaty. As the whole composed it's parts, so must the Philippine question be mutually agreed on or none of these questions previously agreed on will find a place in the treaty. In view of facts the Paris press indicates tendency to confuse the situation. The Matin, reviewing the matter, says:
 C It is well understood the eession of Porto Rico is tanatamount to the pay ment of war indemity in cash and en- tirely freed Spain from any subsequent repetition on the subject. "
 Turning back to Cuba, the Matin ra- marks:
 1.-The Spaniards declined to concur seperating debt from pledge, mortage from loan, and as it was impossible to reach an understanding and was asked that the order of the protocol belngerted and the question of the Philippines be previously discussed, that question pos sibly offering the Americans an opport- unity rendering some compensation for enormous sacrifices they forced upon the conquered. The Americans finally acceded to the changes, only asking the Spaniards to accept provisionally the clauses relating to the Cuban debt, with the reservation that acceptance could be withdrawn if no agreement is reached as to the Philippines
 The Spaniards say they will make this answer known on Friday, but it is easy to foresae N hat it will be, q refusal, precise and fe .mal.
 'The spanish plenipotentiaries have made up their minds, in the event the United States in adyerting to the Pfil- ippine proposition. to decline signing the act of peace, to break off negotia- tions ana call upon the civilized nations to witness the abuse of force to which they will be subjected and a violation of q provision set forth in the Washington protocol. ,
 The Gaulois remarks:
 "The spaniards never agree to aban- don the archipelago without ccmpensa- tion, and we believe lhe Americans in tend to suggest that they will assume the Philippine debt. We hope negotia- tions will net be broken, but Spain, it given out, will certainly take such a course rather than submit to humiliat- ing terms.

WILD BIRDS SEEK FARMYARDS

Turkeys in Virginia Roost with thc DO
mcstic Fowls.
Turkeys are so plentiful that it is
nothing uncommon to hear Of their
coming to roost at farmhouses, along
side the domestic birds. Mr.. P. n.
Yeager, living at Travellers Repose, ".
Va, and twenty-five miles west Of
Monterey, has, according to the Rich
mond Dispatch, six wild ones running
with his tame flock. These, however,
have a little romance connected with
them that does not often come into
the life of a turkey. One day last
spring Mr.. Yeager and his daughter,
Miss Pearl, went from their home TO
a "clubhouse' several miles distant
and situated in the solitudes of Cheat
mountain. Fishing down one of the
mountain streams for trout, they I'M
expectedly flushed a covey of wild
turkeys, consisting of the mother bird
and nestful Of little fellows. The old
one flew away to a safe distance, while
scrambled away and hid among the
ferns. Six of them were made cap
tives, and it was decided to take them
home, but how was it to be done sue
cessfully Miss Pearl dropped them in
to the capacious and mysterious depth
of her bonnet and bore them in tri-
umph to the fsr:1yard, where they
were again to see the light and make
their future home. The tiny fellows
took kindly to their new existence and
soon made fast friends of new neigh
bcrs. Months have come and gone
and they are now full-grown, noble
fellows, fit to grace the table of a king
