sbie Answer to Our Demand for the
PhiIippsnes Likely to Bs n Refusal

Paris, Nov. 1.-The French -papeys
derive their news OF the work of the
peace commissions from Spaniah
sources and, therefore. the morning
papers here to-day are interesting n.
indicating the atmosphere in Spanish
quarters and the trend of French
views and their friends. 1t must he
recalled that the Spaniards have ut~
terly accepted the re fu sal of the United
States government to assume any or
the Spanish debt, and the Cuban ques-
tion has been set away to await It's
place in the final treaty, providing dif-
ferences on the question of the Philip
pine islands shall not prevent the
making of any treaty. As the whole
is composed OF It's parts, SO must the
Philippine question be mutually agreed
on or none of those questions previ-
ously agreed on will find place in the
treaty.
This is all the provision or provi-
sional understanding existent. In
view of the facts then, the Paris press
to-day has indicated a tendency to con-
fuse the situation. The Matin, in re-
viewing it, says:
1t is well understood that the cession OF Por-
to Rico was tantamount TO the payment OF a.
war indemnity In cash and entirely freed Spain
from any subsequent repetition on the sub
ject
Turning back to Cuba the Matin re-
marks:
The Spaniards declined to concur in sepa-
rating the debt from the pledge. the mortgage
from the loan. and as IL WAS impossible to
reach a. understanding they asked that at
that the question of the Philippines bc previ-
ously discussed. that question possibly auer-
ing the Americans opportunity for tender
ing some compensation for the enormous sac
rihces they have forced upon the conquered
| The Americans finally acceded to the change
and only asked the Spaniards to accept pro-
vsionally the clauses relating to the Cuban
debt with the reservation that the acceptance
could be Withdrawn IL no agreement was
reached "a to the Philippines
Referring to yesterdays meeting,
the Matin says:
The Spanard, said they would make heir
answer known on Friday. But 1t IL easy TO
foresee what II will be--a refusal precise and
! formal. The Spanish plenpotentia-ies have
made up their minds. In the event OF the
! United States adverting To tho Philippine
/ proposition. to decline signing the act OF peace.
to break OF tho negotiations and to call upon
the civilized nations to witness the abuss OF
force to which they Will be subjected and the
violation OF tho provisions set forth in the
! Washington protocol
/ The Gaulos remarks:
/ The Spaniards will nevsr agree to abandon
| the archipelago without compensation and we
believe the Americans intend 70 suggest that
| they will assume the Philippine dsbt We
hope the negotiations will not BE- broken on. but
