Will Compel the Retention of the
Philippines by United States

London, Oct. 2S.-The Paris correspon-
dent of the Standard says
THE government has good reason to
believe that the United States intend to
retain the Philippines on the ground
that President Mckinley must satisfy
public opinion The government believes
that the American commissioners will
argue the necessity Of thus dev1atine
from the spirit and text of the protocol
on the ground that the condition Of
things in the island OF Luzon and the
archipelago renders it impossible for
America to abandon her native allies
or for Spain to re-establish her rule.
without heavy sacrifices Of men and
money and finally because Spain could
not be allowed to retain possession ex-
cept under conditions unpaHtable to
Spain and her colonial traditions
Spain, however, cannot yet believe
she will be deprived Of the Philippines
without some pecuniary compensation
in addition to a recognition of the Phil
ippine loan of 1895 Therefore, upon the
question of the Philippines the Spanish
commissioners will make even a stron-
ger resis tance than they have made
over the Cuban debit
