INTERFERENCE At MANILA.
GERMANY. FRANCE AND RUSSIA SAID
TO HAVE REACHED AN UNDER
STANDING,

Berlin. July 2-On the best authority the
correspondent of the Associated Press here -
Informed that Germany. France and Russia
have reached an understanding relative to the
Philippine Islands. 1t is said that these three
Powers do not intend to interfere actively I'M
I'll host-ies cease. after which they VIII COM
bre to prevent the United states or Great
Britain gaining possession Of the whole OF the
Philippine Islands. When the war Is over an
international congress will be proposed similar
to the Berlin Congress Of 1873, to settle AL
questions connected with the war. All the great
Powers will be invited TO join. including the
United States and Spain. 1t appears certain
that Germany will then demand share OK the
Philippine Islands other compensation In the
Far East.
The correspondent of the Associated Press
has received corroboration Of the above state
ment from authentic sources.
The same authority SAYS that Germany Is
doing a thriving trade in provisions, especiaHy

ton end small arms. through Hamburg COM

SHIPPED from Copenhagen mainly by the Inins-

Some comment has been aroused by Mr I'LL
mans speech in the United States Senate re-
gardne me Philippines The National Eel
tung" reterates the statement that Germany
has not yet shown desire to interfere. except
to protect German subjects. should the neces-
sty arise which Is by no means unlikely. as
neither Spain nor the United States seems able
to cope with the natives The paper adds:
Il thu United States Should conquer and re-
tain the Philippines or II spain reIlnqulshes
them to tie United states. then they would be-
come theirs by right Of war and II is improb-
able that any Power would go 10 war with the
United States in order to dispute their posses
