ippines A opted Work May Possibly
lie Concluded This Week.

PARIS, Dec. 1.--Some advance has
been made i'll the formulation of a
treaty of peace between the United

Giles laid before the two peace commits
sions at their meeting, covering the fol-
lowing SUBJECTS:
First-The REIMBURSEMENT of sovereignty
over and claims of title to Cuba.
Second--The cession Of Porto Rico and other
Spanish possessions in the West Indies,
together with Guam in the Ladrones.
Third--Ths cession of the Philippines.

traily.

bodying the terms of the evacuation of

cally The same as in the evacuation Oh
Cuba and Porto Rico The mutual re-
lease of military prisoners was agreed

Ceuta, in Morocco and other Spanish
penal settlements.
Daily sessions are expected to be held

ton is not probable.
The foregoing list of subjects under
consideration does not show the precise
order in which the articles were laid
DtlOIG bllG 2)dIlo1 SOlululSS1OASI5, ftlIQ
in fact only eight of the IL articles
were discussed. Four points arose
about when the Spaniards desired to
consult Madrid and two upon which
the Americans will consult Washing
ton.
MADRID, Dec. 1.-The cabinets in
structions to Senior Montero Rios were
to request the immediate release of the
Spanish prisoners in the Philippine
islands, to negotiate navigation and
tariff advantages Ill the Philippine ISL
ands in favor of Spain, to obtain rati-
fication of several treaties of commerce
with former spanish possessions, and
an arrangement of the debt of the Phil
ippines, and, if possible, of the Cnban

VIOLATING THE LAW.
Ingalls, Testified In the West virginia
Rate Case.

Rate Case.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-At the session
of the Interstate commerce commission
which was investigating the charges of
rate and facility discrimination by the
Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad COM
pany, Q. G. Blake, the Cincinnati coal
operator and the complainant in the
case, testified that the practical opera
ton of his contracts was to make him
pay the regular scheduled tariff rates
while other handlers were obtaining
lower prices. He also declared that in
the New river district the railroad COM
pany had neglected to furnish him
promptly sufficient cars.
President M. N. Ingalls, of the Chesa-
peake and Ohio, in his cross. examina-
tion, admitted that Coal Freight Agent
Benjamin OF the Chesapeake and Ohio
had done some illegal acts in connec-
ton with rate making, and said the
rates should have been published.
In a week or ten days, he said, new
tariff schedule will be announced
lower than the present. but higher than
the rates allowed in existing contracts.
He would be very sorry if such rates
resulted disastrously to the railroads or
operators, but they would have to be
paid, as the company would violate the
law no longer.
After brief arguments by both sides,
Chairman Knapp said there seemed to
be no testimony warranting the COM
mission in making any order respecting
the terminal facilities of the road at
Cincinnati, as to which discrimination
is charged. The general charge of
freight discrimination will be treated
in some future order of the commission.
