.ESPOUSE TIE
 SPANISH CAUSE Paris Newspapers Plead
 for Generosity. TAFFY FOR UNCLE SAM PEACE COMMISSIONERS AND THE PHILIPPINE QUESTION. Meanwhile the Dens Are Carrying Out the Agreement to Evacuate
 Cuba and Porto
 Rico.
TAFFY FOR UNCLE SAM
PEACE COMMISSIONERS AND
 THE PHILIPPINE QUESTION.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

PARIS, Oct 10.-It Is believed the questions now being discussed by the Peace Commission relate to Cuba and the adjustment of the debt of that island.
 The Paris newspapers show evidence of anxiety in behalf of the Spanish cause.
 The Matin, on Sunday, alleged that an understanding regarding Cuba and Porto Rico was possible, as the United States claims everything and Spain re- fuses nothing; but the difficulty arises on the question of the Philippine Is lands.
 The Matin closed it's remarks on the subject by expressing the belief that we shall see the republic, which has just shown herself to be so brave and strong, show herself also generous"
 As the joint commissions have not yet considered the Philippine question the Paris papers appear to Americans as making the statement that the Phil ippines are under consideration in order to be in position to abjure the Ameri- can commission to treat Spain gener- ously.
 The Gaulois this morning reviews the political situation and declares its con- clusions that between the alleged re- ported purpose, of expansion and the Democratic opposition thereto President Mckinley and the United States com mission will be inspired after all with the sentiments of generosity which are the honor of victorious nations"
 The keynote of these expressions seems to have been sounded by a Span ish diplomat to an American here last week, thesdiplomat saying that the United States should be generous to Spain.
 A dispatch from Madrid this morn ing says the cost of the Cuban and the Philippine campaigns will exceed 3,OO0,- GOO, 900 pesetas
 M. Jules Cambon. the former French Ambassador at Washington, arrived in Paris to-day. He will remain here for two months.

CUPID T0ILED WHILE
 THE BATTLE RACED
Belgian Nobleman to Wed Red Cross Nurse Whom He Met
 Before Santiago.

CHICAGO, Oct. 10.-A romance that had its origin in the bloody battlefield of Santiago will have a happy finale to-mor- row, when General Albert Van Shelle, Belgian nobleman, and Miss Anne M. Fowler are united in marriage.
 General Van Shelle, who is Delegate General of the Red Cross Society on the staff of his Majesty Leopold II, is man of much distinction in his own country Miss Fowler is the daughter of Dr. D. s. Fowler of Springfield, III.
 After the war broke out Miss Fowler offered to go to Cuba as nurse under the auspices of the Red Cross Society. She was accepted, and, upon arriving at San tiago during the battle, she began at once to minister to the sufrerings of the wounded. It was in this capacity, she met the Belgian nobleman.
 The groom is only A years old, but al- ready he has attained honors which many an older man would envy. He is a graduate of the law school of the Brus- sells University and has been decorated with the iron cross by the German Elm peror for duty in war. Besides being a knight of the Legion of Honor after Se- dan, he is a knight of the King Leopold Order, for services to national trade and industry.
 Rev Thaddeus Snively will officiate at the ceremony and Charles Henrotin. the Belgian Consul, will act as best man.

DECIDEDLY OPPOSED TO
 RNGLO-AMERICAN ALLIANCE
Stand Taken by the Parnell Conven- tion, at Which John E. Red
 mond Presided.

DUBLIN, Oct. 10.-The Parneu conven- tion was opened here to-day. John E. Redmond presiding. said that 1t was in- credible that a statesman with Mir Chamberlain's experience and astuteness should declare that the passing of the Irish local government bill satisfied the aspirations of Irishmen. The Parnellites would not be satisfied until they secured home rule.
 Resolutions were passed in favor of home rule, approving the local govern ment act, denouncing the project of an Anglo-American alliance, and urging the release of political prisoners.
 The following Is the text of the reso- lution denouncing the proposal of an An glo-American alliance:
 This convention denounces the pro- ject of an alliance between Great Britain and the United States as a selfish at tempt on the part of England to drag the American people to its aid in It's struggles with the powers of Europe, among which it now stands. by reason of it's bad faith absolutely isolated Con- sequently, as friends of America, we, the members of this convention, hope that the republic will not allow itself to be embroiled In European squabbles from which. however, these may result It cannot derive any corresponding advan- tag for American interests

FASCINATING C0URTMARTIAL
SUCCEEDS IN PASSING HIS
 GUARDS.
Privates at the Camp Across the Bay Declare They Are Poorly Fed and Are Sorry They En-
 listed.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SAITSALITO. Oct. 10-Private Ed ward Downs of Battery B, Heavy Ar tillery. stationed at Fort Baker, after guard house at Fort Baker, made his escape last Friday evening, successfully passing six armed guards.
 On the 18th of last August, Downs, while in an intoxicated condition, tied his blankets into a roll and left the camp at night. He was discovered at Sausalito and brought back by armed guards. He was then placed in the guard house and papers were sent to Washington preparatory to a court martial He was charged with deser- tion, and his court martial was to have taken place to-day at the Presidio.
 At about 2 o'clock Saturday morning Downs slipped from under the back of his tent and made his way over the hills to Sausalito, and not until the corporal of the guard made his early round was his absence detected. As soon as Captain Hay was apprised of the escape he gave orders and soon the camp was in an uproar. Armed squads were sent to search the hills, while guards were stationed at the ferries in San Francisco, Tiburon and Sausalito. The search was futile. Downs remains at large.
 There seems to be big story behind the escape of this man which the off, cers are trying to conceal. Lieutenant Hughey was reluctant to speak of the matter tonight and would not give the escapes name From certain of the privates it was learned that the men are poorly fed, and all of them are sorry that they enlisted. Downs. like the rest of them, came from San Fran cisco. About two weeks ago a large batch of beef sent to the men was so tainted that 1t had to be thrown into the bay Several of the privates feel so bitter on account of their treatment that they assert that they would not tell where Downs is even if they knew.

MANILA, Sept. 1.-The Spanish newspapers in Manila are reveling in an unprecedented atmosphere of free dom and criticise the American author ities as they never would have dared criticise their own Government, for the Spanish censor has now joined the great army of unemployed and the United States army censor confines his attention to cablegrams going abroad. He will not, he says, permit word to be said in any way derogatory to the United States army or authorities, but he takes no notice of violent, inflam- matory diatribes daily exciting the people of the Philippines against the Americans. He lets Spaniards say what they like to their readers, while he refuses to trust the American peo- pie and loyal American journalists.
 The Oceania Espanola of August 31 contains a fierce article entitled Chaos" pointing out that no other word can describe the condition of Ma nila under its new rulers. The article complains that the American authori ties have removed public officials and have failed to appoint their successors, hardship to the population of the Phil tppines. The editorial says:
 Thousands of poor tradespeople, labor CTS, contractors and others, have been doing business for the municipal au- thorities of the different wards and now everything is stopped and the poor peo- pie cannot even get the money due them for work done or goods supplied prior to the surrender. To thousands in this city one small silver dollar makes all the diff ference between starvation and content ment, yet all the dollars in the treasury have been seized by the Americans. Per haps some day all debts will be paid, but the artisan, the street sweeper, the small storekeeper, who does not know where to- morroW's dinner will come from, cannot feed his family on the song of Some Day"
 The Government pawnshop and savings ters. How many thousands of people therefore curse the Americans; people who have been ready to bless them, ready to welcome them as liberators, un- til they find themselves at liberty to starve pending negotiations"
 There Is no blame to the Americans for not being ready all in a minute to run complicated organization entirely strange to them. but in the name of rea- for stopping one machine before the other is ready. It has caused and is causing an indescribable amount of misery among the many thousands of poor people in Manila.
 General Merritt was quick enough to grab the, customs and get his staff work ing there, because the customs may be But attending to the public wants of a poor populace is not remunerative, and he not only neglects it himself, but pre- vents others going on with it as of old.
