THE PEACE COMMISSIONS
Examined the Solution Which II Is
Possible to GiYe to Two Questions
REFERRED TO IN THE PROTOCOL
The Discussion Tuesday Was
Very Animated.
PAINFUL IMPRESSION EXISTSAT MADRID
Assocla.ed Press plspstches b Special wirea

Associated Press Dispatches by Special Wires.
Paris, France, Oct 1.-THE sitting
of the joint Peace Commissions of the
United States and Spain, yesterday,
was devoted, according to the Gaulois,
to an examination Of the solution
which it is possible to give to two
questions in the protocol.
The Philippine question, the Gaulois
adds, was discussed incidentally, the
United States commissioners seeking
to impose system of compensation for
claims connected with the entire group
by assuming the debt, provided Spain
guarantees the Cuban debt. The
Spaniards, it appears, wish the United
States to assume the Cuban debt, and
to hand over to Spain all the war ma
terial in Cuba and Porto Rico.
The discussion, still according to the
Gaulois, was very animated. Judge
Day, the president of the American
commission, and Senior Montero Rios,
the president of the Spanish commits
sion, having received precise instruc-
tions from their respective governments,
the Americans consider that they can
not discuss the principles forming the
base of the protocol, to which the
Spaniards reply that the protocol was
signed at critical moment and under
so pressing necessity that it cannot be
considered as expressing the sovereign
will of free nation.

TROLLEY o4 rs COLLIDE.
Failure of Brakes to Work Caused a Com
motion on West Fourth street Last Night

faiure OIL BRAKES 10 HOrk CHuxod COn-
motion on West Fourth Street Last Night.
Tuesday night about $50 o'clock a
collision occurred between two cars of
the Wilmington City railway at Fourth
and Jefferson streets. The cars were a
West Fourth street car and car of
the Maryland avenue line. Both were
eastbound and the brakes Of the Mary
land avenue car, in ascending the hill
failed to work and all efforts to even
hold it failed. 1t ran backward down
the hill and the conductor of the car
called to the motorman to use the sand.
The bell was sounded and the con-
ductor signalled the motorman on the
Fourth street car to reverse his car and
GO back. When the cars were close
together one man jumped off, landing
on his feet. Several other passengers
jumped and others prepared to do
likewise.
Miss Anna Scott, daughter of Levy
Court Commissioner w. A. Scott, was
among the first to jump and fell with
force on her right side, sustaining
severe bruises to her arm, side and
face. Mrs. John Townsend, when about
to Jump, was thrown to the street and
rendered unconscious. She was taken
to a nearby house, and upon recovering
was sent to the home of friends.
A woman passenger with a baby was
also severely bruised and was sent to
her home. DR.. Ogle was summoned
and attended to the injured pas
sengers. .A"'rt

Unknown Man Dcad.

A Hebrew, known as Walter or Wal
tiers, died during Tuesday night at the
house No. IL Claymont street, which
is occupied by the family of Thomas
Hassum. According to the statement of
people in the house, he went there that
night after several weeks absence,
having lived there before. He decided
to spend the night there and when he
retired appeared to be in good health.
During the night, however, he was
heard to get up out Of bed and wash
himself. This was considered little
odd, and a friend, thinking he was
sick, offered to go for doctor, but
this was not deemed necessary and the
guest retired again. He was found
dead yesterday, and it is presumed
that he had been suffering from heart
disease. Deputy Coroner Chandler is
making an investigation. 1t is thought
the man had worked for the Diamond
State Iron Co., as workman's key
was found ON him. Several Hebrews
called at the morgue, and although,
they could not tell the mans name,
they said they would bury him.

At the armory, the Office force is at
work on the mastering out books,

record complete requires " great deal of
work but once done the record is easily
referred to so that much time will be
saved hereafter.
