immediate legislative action for the
construction of the Nicaraguan canal

80 PEAcE NEGOTIATIONS.
There Has Been No Change in tho situa-
ton at Parla since FrIday-Amerioa
VIII Not Yield

Paris, Nov S.-There has been no
change In the peace situation since
Friday. The American commissioners
have received no fresh instructions
from Washington and nobody here has
the least doubt as to what reply viii
be given to the Bpauiards at the next
conference. Moreover, the confidence
Of the American commissioners that
Spain viii soon yield to the inevitable
seems to be increasing, but the basis Of
their belief is not disclosed. If infor-
nation from Madrid suggests such
confidence, it should be borne in mind
that the Spanish surrender must come
through another channel than Senior
MOnterO Rios, the president Of the
Spanish commission, who firmly de-
clares that he will never sign the
treaty the United States proposes
The Spanish reply that was submit
ted to the American peace commits
siouers on Friday contains a feature
that is not calculated to appeal TO the
generosity Of America or the sympathy
Of other. nations This is a demand
for damages for the hostile Occupa-
ton Of Manila and the retention Of
the Spanish prisoners there after the
signature Of the protocol. Inasmueh
as the occupation Of Manila was pro-
vided for in the protocol, this claim
appears to be distinctly impertinent,
but Spain enters into an elaborate ar
gGment in support Of her contention,
which is based on her interpre tatiOn Of
international law. She points out
that it is the invariable practice Of
beIligereDts to restore the statu quo
Of the date of the signature Of the
armistice or protocol.
