NO DATE FIXED YET
But SPANS Answer Will Probably
Be Ready Saturday.
INTERVIEW WITH SENIOR ABARZUZA
The Commissioners Take Luncheon
With White,aw Reid.
DISAGREEABLE DAY

PARIS. November 24.-The Spanish COM
missioners at noon today had not fixed upon
the day to submit their final answer to the
American propositions. but 1t Is deemed
most likely that Saturday will be the day
appointed. The opinion gains ground that
the Spaniards will accept the proposals of
the United States. A significant indicat ton
of this view of the situation was a remark
dropped by Senior Abarzuza of the Spanish
commission today that they expected to re-
main here about a fortnight longer.
The secretary of the Spanish commission.
Senior Ojeda. said today that the instruc-
tons from Madrid were not sufficiently
matured to enable them to appoint the
next meeting.
Interview With Abarzuza.
The correspondent CT the Associated
Press asked Senior Abarzuza today if the
commissions would be able to leave Paris
next week with the treaty. and he replied,
with 4 sidelong glance, as though to OBJ
serve whether his questioner noted the
significance of the reply:
u suppose we shall be here for another
fortnight"
why the Spanish commissioner was
asked, is the opinion expressed en-
phatically by a portion of the Paris press
tndl YOU Will uecfihe the Sgb,H"],3N. bAt
will sign the treaty, with a protest that you
do so only under the pressure of superior
power?"
Well, it does seem that $50, OO0O0O is not
very satisfactory.
This vas the semi-evasive manner in
which the Spanish diplomat answered the
question.
His quostioner continued: Then it has
been affirmed that Spain will refuse 10 sign
the treaty, Ceciin9 the money offered and
make a protest to the powers, and that her
commissioners will go home. Is that the
most likely resut?'
Should Not Anticipate.
''Ah. bat We should rot anticipate. We
should know cay by day what happens day
ty day
And 50 you anticipate a fortnight more
of daily Developments here?
All yes. A fortnight. Perhaps some af-
fairs may be attended to in that time"
The dag is rainy and disagreeanle. The
American peace commissioners were the
guests of Whitelaw Reid at a Thanksgiving
DAY luncheon at the hotel.

About COCO Operatives Involved In

ATLANTA, Ga, November PA special
to the Journal from Augusta, Ga, says:
The strike among cotton mill operatives
here now affects 5000 workers. The new
scale which the owners seek to enforce,
and to which the strikers object, is based
so the owners say, on the rate of wages
paid in South Carolina and North Carolina
This the strikers deny, by claiming that
the conditions here and in the Carolinas
are different. The mill owners are firm in
The strikers are beginning to yield They
recognize their situation and know that
they have no weapon to fight with They
have no money nor organiZat ton and with
out one or the other they cannot hope to
win.
If this cut is successful. 1t Is believed
similar reductions will be made in cotton
mills in other parts of the south.

PENNSY AND CORNELL.
Big Crowd Attends, Though, In Spite
of Bad Weather.

PHILADELPHIA, November 24--The
annual Thanksgiving day foot bal! game
between the University Of Pennsylvania
and Cornell teams was marred by most
wretched weather. Rain had fallen lightly
since Tuesday night. and this was aug
mented this morning by occasional light
srow squalls. The air was cold and most
unpleasant for spectators as well as play
ers, and was in every way fully up TO
what a captain terms "a dirty day
The gridiron at Franklin field was trans
formed into veritabIe quagmire. Nearly
all the $500 seats had been sold in ad-
vance but many of the purchasers were
deferred by apprehensions of pneumonia
from making use of their tickets. This. in
some degree affected the attendance at
the game.
Notwithstanding these conditions an
enormous crowd witnessed the contest, and
the fair sex constituted their full proper
ton of the assemblage. Heavy wraps and
mackintoshes were the order of the day.
The crowd did not begin to assemble as
early as II would on a more propitious day.
1t was 80 o'clock before the vast stands
began to fill up. A train load Of Cornell
students and others from Ithaca arrived
early in the day. but the unfavorable
weather had no terror for these, for they
were at the ground early, giving vent to
their college slogan by way of encourage
ment 10 their heroes.
The Cornell team, with their coaches and
trainers, came into the city this morning
from Wayne, the suburban resort, where
the men have been practicing since Tues
day. They repaired at once to the rooms
set aside for their use in the athletic quar-
tiers of the Pennsylvania University.
The snow which began falling at noon
continued without abatement until the
teams came on the field. The field is one
puddle of water, and a stiff breeze is blow
ing from the north.
