A WARNING TO FRANCE.
joseph Chamberlain Advises Her to Let New
roundland Affairs Alone.

Manchester, Eng, Nov. 15.-At the Ma
tional Liberal Unionist conference here
today, Mr.. Jos. Chamberlain, secretary of
state for the colonies. made his first pub
lie speech since his return from the
United States.
Mr.. Chamberlain, who was much more
explicit on the subject of Anglo French
relations than any of his colleagues in
the cabinet has been, said it was the
hope OF every friend of peace that the
French withdrawal from Fashoda is indl-
cative OF their acceptance of the principle
of control of the whole valley of the
Nile. regarding which they cannot be any
discussion whatever.
Going on TO recite series of unfrend-
ly acts perpetrated by France in various
quarters of the globe during the last 10
or 10 years." he said: IF better relations
are to be established it will be necessary
fer French politicians to abandon tacucs
whose object has been to hamper ana
eInbarras British policy even in quarters
where the French have no interests to
protect. refer especially to Newfound-
land. where despite the fact that the
French fishery interests have declined TO
a comparatively insignificant point. the
demands of the French have continually
increased and their interference with the
development of the colony has increased
AT the present moment Newfoundland Is
seriously suffering from an intervention
which is of no advantage to France. al
colony.
If the Fashoda incident only serves to
disabuse foreign statesmen of the erro-
neous conception that the British will
yield anything TO pressure, it will be d
blessing in Disguise After referring to
the thorough and complete sympathy Sc
noticeable Between the motherland and
her colonies Mr.. Chamberlain continued
as follows: What is of equal Importance
our American kinfolk have begun TO bet
ter understand. If we have had differ
ences in the past. | believe they have
risen entirely from the want of proper
mutual understanding. but now the
American people know that in the late
trouble our hearts went out to them, and
they heartily reciprocate our good feel
ings.
| shall not attempt to predict what
may follow this better feeling; but may
at least hope that, in the future, the I'M
derstanding of which have spoken may
be perfected and that in the face of that
understanding we two may be able to
guarantee peace and civiHzation to the
world

CRETE FREE FROM TURKS.
Departure Of the Last Transport Assisted by
the French Admiral.

Canea, Crete, Nov. 15.-The popula-
ton OF this town is holiday making.
There is great rejoicing everywhere
A TIE Deum has been chanted by the
bishop and. amid cheers, he invoked
Divine blessings upon the protecting
powers which have freed Crete from
Turkish rule. The Christians are be-
having well and there are no signs of
ill-feeling among the Mussulmans.
1t appears that Chakir Pasha, the
last Turkish commander to leave
Crete, refused at the last moment TO
allow the transport to sail. claiming
that he must wait until he received de-
cisive orders from the Turkish gov
eminent. Thereupon Admiral POTTER,
the French naval commander dis
patched the torpedo boat Vaytour to
exercise the necessary pressure upon
the Turkish commander Threatening
to adopt forcible measures unless the
transport put to sea. Chakir Pashi
then yielded and the transport de-
parted.

Great pressure is being brought upon
the war department to have the VOL
unteer troops now in the Philippines
return to this country. Nearly every
state that has troops stationed at Ma
Mia have asked through it's governor
or representatives in Congress that
these troops be sent home. This pres
sure comes through relatives and
friends of the volunteers and is started
by the troops who have been writing
home.
Some of these letters published in
the state papers at the homes OF the
enlisted men, have created a wave OF
sympathy for the volunteers in far
eff Manila While they do not re-
count very great hardships, except
among those who are ill, they do show
that the life is very obnoxious and
that the duty of policing the city of
Manila and remaining inactive is very
disagreeable.
1t is said that there is no way of re-
lieving these troops from duty in the
Philippines at the present time. The
uncertain conditions that exist in the
island of Luzon make it impossible TO
get along with a smaller number than
are stationed there at present. General
Otis has been asked by cable if troops
could be spared and has replied in the
negative.
The great demand that has been
made for the muster out of volunteer
regiments or individual members of
such regiments will form the basis of
strong recommendation in the annual
message of the President for an IN
crease in the regular army. This new
force will be needed to take the place
of the volunteers who desire to return
home and leave the service.

UNCLE SAM INSISTS
That Spain Shall Evacuate
Cuba by Jan. |, 1898.
No Fears Entertained that Peace Treaty
Negotiations Will Fail.
Though Madrid semi.ofiiciaI Report. Are Very
Much to the Contrary.

Washington, Nov. 15.-The govern
ment has renewed and strengthened its
determination that the Spanish evacu-
alton of Cuba and the American occu-
patton shall not be deferred beyond
Jan. ]. This conclusion has been COM
municated to the Spanish government
within the last few days, in answer to
an urgent request that the date Of
evacuation be put off because of the
large number of Spanish troops re-
naming on the island, who, it was re-
presented could not be moved before
Jan. /. Not being subject which
could be treated by the commissions at
Paris or at Havana the request of the
Spanish government was forwarded to
Washington through the French en-
bassy, which also received and for
Warded by cable the refusal of this
government to put off the date of as
sumng American control.

tary Bliss We're not present at todays
cabinet meeting. The meeting occu-
pied less time than usual and at it's
conclusion it was said that nothing of

cussion.
Administration officials do not share
the opinion expressed in some quar-
tiers that the Paris peace commission
will fail in its efforts to agree upon
treaty. This opinion is not based upon
any specific information received from
Paris, but rather upon the fact that by
withdrawing from the conference Spain
has nothing to gain and all to lose.
1t is undoubtedly true that should the
Spaniards adopt this course they would
sacrifice the indemnity this government
is now disposed to grant, and would al
so precipitate trouble for themselves
along the line. 1t is believed that the
United States at this time would con-
sent to cash payment of from $4,000
000 to $4,000, 900 rather than to renew
the war. but the longer final settle
ment is delayed the smaller will be the
| indemnity. In any event, the President
is not disposed to brook unnecessary
prolongation of the negotiations and it
is believed has so indicated to our
peace commissioners.
Inquiry has been made into the char
acter of the projectors of the remark
able syndicate scheme for the purchase
of the Philippines for the sum of $500,
000,000 The result has been to show
! that they are irresponsible parties and
ii is scarcely to be doubted that the
| project has been put forward as a
means of enhancing the price which
the Spaniards may demand for the re-
! linquishment of the Philippines. The
Spaniards might claim justification for
demanding 5000. 100000 if they could
point to syndicate ready to pay
double that price for the islands.
However, this has not led to any
modification Of the American demands,
and it is probable that several sessions
of the joint commission will be con-
sumed in settling the amount of money
to be paid over on account of the Phil
/ ippines.
