Use to oppose our acquisition of sover-
eighty over the islands, and will have
to be subdued But the United States
government would now have saved the
500 600 600 which it has been willing to
allow to Spain on account of the ISL
ands, and further-and this is no small
consideration-the administration would
avoid dragging the whole policy of war
at least so far as it turns on the
Philippines, into congress, for there
would be no treaty to submit to the
senate to excite discussion and arouse
antagonism
There have been signs Of opposition
to the payment to Spain even of the
small amount of money which the pres
ident felt to be demanded by consi-
derations of exact justice and interna-
tional practice, and that proposition
might have jeopardized the ratification
of the treaty of peace. But of course,
if there is no treaty that danger will
he avoided and meanwhile the govern
ment can take time to deliberate upon
the line of policy it is deemed best
to apply to the government of the colo
MES and determine just what DISPOSE
ton shall be made of all of them.

PROSPECTS OF A TREATY.
The Officials at Washington Have Not
Yet Abandoned Hope.


Washington Nov 21.-The greatest
interest was exhibited at the state de-
partment in all reports from Paris that
came from unofficial but reputable
sources. concerning the joint session of
tha peace commissioners OF official
renorts there were none and it was
said that no word had come from the
American commissioners since Satur-
day.
The impression obtained among the
officials that the situation is not quite
as acute as was at first supposed, and
that the prospects of a treaty being
framed by the present commissioners
are not vet to be abandoned. 1t was
hinted that the Spanish resistance was
really A spectacular exhibition intend
ed 70 convince the Spanish people at
home that the best efforts were being
mt forth to obtain the most liberal
Terms for Spain. and that at the criti-
cal noint some time before the eXpira-
lion of the time limit allowed in the
note presented by the American COM
uissioners today perhaps at the last
moment the Spanish commissioners
will succumb to the inevitable ana ac-
cept treaty on the lines laid down.
But even should they refuse 10 do this
and the commissions part without re-
suit, the situation would not pc so very
bad for the United States.
AS one member of the cabinet put IT,
the government would be under the
necessity of taking possession OF tne
Philippines by force, but II Wouiu
have been under the same necessity IN
all probability even were treaty Oh
