Partition Practically Impossible.
If l may venture the opinion, however,
prophecies regarding the partition Of Chi

of allowance In the first place, how could
such a partition be practically effected?
Who would delim.nate the metes and

where the term is used in the broadcast

how can infringement, or the appearance
Of infringement, be prevented? The pow

Chinese soil viii exercise a certain in

no doubt, but does that necessarily mean
that all other foreign commerce can be

It should not be understood from what

Gentlemen:--Nohody can blame me

While we were laying out in the

I began to feel feveriSh from the day
we got to Siboney. When the Maui
sers sang about our ears l noticed that
l was getting nervous.
I found myself scarcely able to walk
after the battle of San Juan.
l got worse until got back to Mon
faux Point where l got bottle of
Paine's celery compound from another
fellow in the regiment. / saw several
of the Rough Riders taking it.
With some of them as with me. it
seemed TO take the place of both food
and medicine. for the systems of many
of the men needed foning up before
they could again eat as they had done
before leaving this country.

PROGRESS OF PEACE.

Paris, Nov. 19-The American peace
commissioners today have been closely
engaged in formulating the terms of
the important communication to be
made to the Spanish commissioners
next week. 1t is impossible at the
present. however. to determine whe-
Their the work will be completed for
presentation -on Monday or Tuesday.
though it is believed that the Ameri-
cans VIII be ready ON Monday While
the Americans fully appreciate the ne
cessity of making progress, they are
also under the necessity of taking care
in the preparation of what may be n
conclusive; record of their negotiations
The Spanish commissioners consumed
week in the preparation of the last
memorandum. but the Americans will
not require so long time to complete
the work in hand and any present de
lay will Ultimately prove to have been
advantageous.
