SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. %. = The
United States transport Rio de ia
neiro, which arrived here today, brought
the following from Manila:
The Philippine congress has decided
that the Philippine republic will not
countenance any policy that may be
agreed upon whereby Spain viii have
anything further to do with the ISL
ands, and will resist by force of arms
any such measure. A vote was taken
on the policy Of annexation to the
American republic, and annexation
was decided upon by a large majority,
some seven out Of eight voting in favor
or annexation. Aguinaldo now express
es himself as personally in favor of an
nexation, adding that he does not think
the natives generally Will support such
a policy.
When interviewed, Aguinaldo stated
that his army consisted Of 81. 900 ins1r-
gents regularly armed and equipped
with modern weapons, and that he
had some 5000 prisoners Of war at this
time, including the larger portion now
being held In the vicinity Of Manila.
He stated that an army Of 100, ,0GO could
easily be raised to fight for the cause
Of independence, adding that Indeed
the whole population is willing to fight
for the cause Of independence and
would oppose any European power TAX
ing possession"
When asked how 1t was that some
natives openly declare themselves In
favor of annexation to America, he
| stated that natives who profess to
favor annexation are insincere in What
they say. They are merely trying to
ascertain the general sentiment and
the intentions Of the Americans He
expressed himself as entertaining the
| greatest friendship for the American
people, adding that he hoped there
would be no trouble between the re-
public of the Philippines and the re-
| public Of America. He entertains the
| idea that America and the Philippines
| are two sister republics, allied to-
| gether and fighting u common enemy
| the Spaniards.
He thinks the American mission

| plished by the destruction of the Span

| the Americans will soon withdraw
their forces, leaving the insurgents to

For some time past the insurgents

conduct ON the. part of his men,
1t is generally reported about Ma
Mia that many insurgents are not ir

ers.
| Aguinaldo denies having received any
order or request from Gen. Otis and
Admiral Dewey to remove his troops tc
a prescribed distance beyond the fixed

further declined to state whether he

COMPROMISE PROPOSED.
Spain Wants IA Concession as to the
Debt Of Cuba.


PARIS, Oct. 22.-The United States
peace commission held two sittings to-
day to consider the voluminous COM
munication presented yesterday by the
Spanish commissioners.
This new proposition of the Span
iards looks to a compromise between
the refusal of the Americans to assume
any of the Cuban debt and the Spanish
holding that the United States should
assume it wholly.
The terms of yesterdays proposal
are obviously unknown, save to the
commissioners. The American COM
missioners will reply to the communi-
cation at Mondays joint session, and
an extended discussion will then follow
and will carry the matter over possi-
bly, to another meeting.
LIE Temps this evening deals editorial
ly with the work of the Spanish and
American peace commissioners, re-
marking at the outset that little prog
ress has been made thus far in the
negotiations. Both sides, the paper
says, have good Intentions No Span
lard desires the renewal Of hostilities,
and no American has the purpose to
crush the vanquished Spaniards. LIE
Temps then cites the methods Of writ
ten exchange between the commissions
as a cause of the slow progress, and
says it is very evident that such pro-
cedure has been adopted to retard and
complicate the progress of negotiations,
such a system OF monologueS, instead
of dialogues, requiring illlmitable time
labor and good humor.

In the Egyptian Sudan, south Of

LONDON, Oct. 22.-Never since Great
Britain and France began to dispute
over Egypt, nor during the most acute
stage of the Niger differences between
those two countries, has the situation
locked so ominous as today. In spite
of the hope expressed in the sober
journals of both countries that the
matter viii be amicably arranged, it is
& fact that the French naval and mill
tary authorities are making feverish
preparations for war, and, although
calm reigns at the British dockyards at
Portsmouth, Chatham and Devonport,
II is only the calm of preparedness, and
significant orders have been arriving
there from the admiralty, indicating
the belief that Great Britain and
France are on the brink of war.
AS Mr.. De Blowitz, the Paris corre-
spondent of the London Times, writes
today: Never before has there been
witnessed such a state of fever as is
now prevailing in Great Britain, nor
so great an exhaltion of public feel
ing over a foreign policy, while on the
other side France is promptly and rap
idly, without looking forward or back
ward, preparing to fight any power that
opposes her. French statesmen, how
ever, still cling to the hope that the
Marquis of Salisbury will offer some ex-
change which will enable them to retire
from FaShoda without apparent sacri-
flee of dignity. This hope is based on
a conversation between Lord Salisbury
and Baron de COurcel Uhe French am
bassador at London, which figures in
q most important chapter in the yell
low book which the French government
will issue tomorrow"
FRANCE HOPEFUL.
1t is learned that Baron de Courcel,
In the conversation referred to with
Lord Salisbury, was asked what France
wanted in the Soudan. The baron re-
piled that France wished for an outlet
on the upper Nile. Lord Salisbury
then replied that he could not promise
anything and must consult with his
colleagues on such a matter.
Frenchmen infer from this answer of
the British premier that he is consider
ing French claims. and they even talk
of negotiations in progress The Eng
