LONDON. Nov. 1.-The Paris CORE
spQndcnt of the Daily Telegraph says:
The disagreement between the American
and Spanish peace commissioners, which
under ordinary circumstances might have
caused alarm throughout Europe. Is hard
ly noticed, owing to the Fashoda AFFAIR.
The Spaniards are in a position to know
and assert that their government will re-
sist the American demands and will offer
the Philippines for lump sum. II this
proposal is not accepted Spain will recall
her commissioners and let the Yankees do
what they choose.
am assured, however. that a rupture on
Friday is improbable. Spain will endeavor
by arguments and appeals to gain what
ever concessions are possible, but she will
not risk a renewal of hostllities
The Times editorially this morning ex-
presses its frank satisfaction at the deci-
sion of the United States commissioners TO
take the Philippine islands. 1t says:
''The arrangement Is undoubtedly the
best that could be made for the inhabitants
and for all Interested in the trade and prog

says IL does not object to the papers an

would be "un1a;riotic to publish specific
details that might be useful to q possible

There Is no noticeable cessation In Eng

 TRINITY MUSICAL SERVICE.

Sir John Stainer's "The Crucifixion"
 Rendered by the Choir Last Night
 Fine Musical Treat-The Sacred Edi-
 fee Crowded to the Doors and Many
 Were Unable to Gain Admission.
 No more distinct proof of Trinity church choir's popularity in musical circles could be found than that of the large assemblage that crowded the sa- cred edifice last night, when the choir rendered Sir John Stainer's anthem, "The Crucif1xion." Long before the usual time for beginning the service every seat, both in the area and in the galleries, was taken. Every inch of standing space was also taken advan- tage of, and many persons had to go home disappointed. Owing to the in- disposition of MT. Woodstock, the ten or soloist of the choir, Wallace S. Moyle of St. Paul's church filled the breach The other soloist was the Rev. c. w Bispham.
 The anthem was long and difficult one and taxed the abilities of the choii to the utmost. MT. Moyle was in fine voice and did ample justice to the vari- ous solos entrusted to his care, while the rendering of the bass solos by the Rev. c. w. Bispham was all that could be desired. In the choruses the choil more than sustained their reputation and reflected the highest credit on theil conductor, MT. Bispham. In all prob ability the piece will be again rendered

Coming Grand Musical Event Under
 Clan McLeods Auspices at Warner
 Hall April 1--Some of the Artists
 Who Will Take Part
 The annual concert of Clan Mcleod No. S1, Order of Scottish Clans, Is all ways looked forward to as one of the musical events of the season, The concerts given by the clan annually for the past ten years have been Of such a high class of nature that they have come to be looked upon as one of the treats of the season that cannot be missed. It has always been the aim of the clan to engage only artists Of the highest reputation for these occa- sions. Several times they have at great expense put before the New Ha- ven public some of the best singers that Scotland has produced. Among these might be mentioned the famous Balmoral choir from Glasgow and Outward Lily" the great tenor. For this concert the clan decided to secure the services of New Haven talent and | the committee was successful in secur- | ing the services of the following well known artists for the program: Mrs. | Nora Russell Haesche, soprano; Miss Edith M. Beers,, contralto; Wallace s. Moyle, tenor; pr. D. Jones, baritone; John Japp, eloclutionist; Alex Gillespie late of the London music halls, in his hornpipe and jig dances, and also the Amphion male quartet, and Fichtrs or chestra. With such an array of talent the success of the concert is assured This concert will be amongst the last appearances of Wallace Moyle previous to his departure for New York, May 1 and doubtless many will take advant- age of hearing New Haven's favorite tenor. Miss Beers also leaves the city for Bridgeport at the same time as MT Moyle. The clans annual dance vii follow the concert. Music will be sup piled by Fichtl and his orchestra. The committee is actively engaged witt the programme and expect to publish l it during the week. Tickets can bt had in advance at Loomis' Temple oi Music, Browns harness store, George street, and members of the clan.

AFTER a week OF more of negotiations the
navy department purchased on Monday, in
London, the two fine cruisers built and
building at Elswick, for the Brazilian gov
eminent. Possibly the officials took more
pleasure in closing up the business in this
manner because OF the knowledge that the
Spanish agents had been striving to secure
these very ships, to whom it is said they
would be of much greater value in case OF
trouble than to the United States. The
next question is how to get the ships home,
and that has not yet been settled, according
to the secretary of the navy. The United
States flag will be hoisted over the new
ships within week probably, and just as
soon as the crew can be put aboard the
Amazonas she will start for the United
States. The other vessel will follow at the
earliest possible moment. The terms OF
the sale are secret.
