THE PARIS EXPOSITION.
Talk With Commissioner Peck
America Will he Well Represented.

washington Evening Star-2sth.)
Mr.. Ferdinand w. Peck. commissioner
general to the Paris Exposition, is in
Washington to-day to take the oath Of
office. receive his credentials, and begin
the administration of his duties.
II expect 10 start for Paris about Sep
TENDER 1st," said Mr.. Peck this afternoon
to a Star reporter. In the mean time
my headquarters will be in Chicago, at
the Auditorium building. Chicago has
been chosen because of its geographical
position and its easy access from all quar-
ters of the country"
Mr.. Peck feels deeply the personal COM
pliment involved in his selection as COM
missioner general, but thinks that his
residence in Chicago and his relation to
the exposition were responsible for the
Presidents choice.
Mr.. Peck did not know of his appoint
ment until noon last Friday. He was on
his way 10 his summer home, at Ocono-
mowoc. and had stopped at Milwaukee
for few minutes when a telegram was
handed him. 1t was personal message
from President Mckinley making known
his choice for the commissioner-genera
shi,.
Mr.. Peck thinks the Americans will ex-
tensively patronize the Paris Exposition.
He does not believe that the war or any
temporary feeling which may have grown
out OF 1t will In any large degree affect
the demand Of American manufacturers
for space In aiding them to bring their
products before the eyes of the world
He believes that the real sentiment of
the French republic IL most favorable to
her greater sister republic. and that any
other impression on the part of any OF
the people will prove TO be fieeting.
1.-The applications already received from
our prospective exhibitors sanction this
statement" said Mr.. Peck "As to space
for exhibits, the truth is that the ar
rangement now existing is Of an indefinite
and tentative character. Until I go there
in September there can be no intelligent
allotment OF space. One thing is ce--
tain. though. This country will need
moro space II It can be obtained. And II
the exposition authorities can possibly
spare any space not already allotted 1
believe they win be inclined to be more
liberal with US than would have been the
case had II not beeA for alleged strained
relations which arose some months ago."
Mr.. Psak will return 70 Chicago to-xnor-

ALGER ANGRY WITH MILES,
But the Latter Has the Confidence
of the President.
Washington Correspondence Philadelphia
Times)

washington Correspondence Pniladelpnla
Times)
The Secretary of War Is displeased
with General Miles because he landed his
army at Guanica instead of Fajardo, as
the Secretary desired. General Miles
does not yet know that the Secretary of
War Is angry with him, and he will not
care when he does know. He suffered
unnecessary and undeserved snubs and
insults at the hands Of the Secretary of
War for three months. Finally, on July
Sd. when Skaters army was practically
defeated, General Miles was called to the
White House by the President, and there
formulated the orders which brought VIC
tory out of defeat.
When General Miles left the White
House that afternoon 1t was with the
assurance that he would be retained in
absolute command of the army until the
close of the present war, and that he
should not be interfered with by any
body. The President will stand by that
decision. The Secretary of War has
done enough to hamper the army, be-
cause of his dislike of General Miles, and
he will be permitted to interfere no
more. 1t was he who caused Shafter
to be sent to Santiago, instead Of Miles.
and Shafter, doing his best, was incom-
petent for the work. This the President
well knows, and he also knows all too
we'll that Shafter disobeyed orders from
Washington so often that he came near
being brought home.
1t makes no difference how the Secre-
tary of War may desire to interfere with
the movements Of the army hereafter,
he will not be allowed to interfere. Gene
raj Miles will direct the movements of
the troops He is a soldier, understands
his business. and also understands the
policy of the President so thoroughly
that he can carry out that policy to the
perfect satisfaction OF the Commander
in-chief, and he will do so. Personal
differences sometimes cause official
changes in Washington, but General Miles
will remain in his position, no matter
what changes may otherwise occur by
Of tho President in the future
conduct OF the war against Spain.

Another Joint Session of the Peace Com

Was Held.

PARIS, Oct.1 Commander Bradford,

Washington, was examined this morn
ing by the United States peace commits

The fifth joint session of the two COM
missions convened at 2 O'Clock today.
It may be said that the first. second and
third meetings scarcely penetrated the
surface of any protocol point, and less
still the marrow. Last Tuesday, how

regarding the Cuban debt, which has.

cans to serious Preparations for the ad-
justment of the diplomatic forces and

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-The war de-
partment last night authorized the pub
lication of letter which was received
by Colonel Charles A. Bird, assistant
quartermaster of the army, from G. H.
R. BRAND, first lieutenant and quarter
master of the Fifth United States yolun-
teer infantry, which has just returned
to New York from Porto Rico. Referring
to some sensational statements made
concerning the trip of the Obdam in
New York papers, Lieutenant BRAND
said:
''I have noticed in the papers that the
reporters have again made a mountain
out of an ant hill. First,in regard to the
fire, wish to state that we did return
to Santiago, as the captain of the ship
deemed it advisable to do so for the pur-
pose of unloading some of the coal used
as ballast, which had become heated,
but that it amounted to nothing, as it
was discovered in time. 1 myself did
not see as much smoke coming out of
the hold as one would make smoking a
cigar. As for the ship getting so hot as
to cause the paint to blister, or caus-
ing any damage to ammunition on
board, it is absolutely without founda-
tion.
''The ship was well handled both by
the captain ard the crew, and the com
fort of the passengers was looked after
in an able manner.
''In regard to the sick on board, 1
wish to say that we had two surgeons,
one assistant surgeon and the ships sur
geon on the Obdam; I know that the
sick were properly looked after and had
all the comforts there could be had on a

INDEMNITY ASKED
Spaniards, However, Consider Cuba as
Indemnity, and Think the United
States Will Annex the Island-NO
Hitch in the NegOtiatiOns-Ameri-
cans Would Make a Mistake in
Taking the Philippines.

New YORK, Oct. 14.-A special the the
World from Paris says:
Senior Abarzusa, a member of the
Spanish peace commission, was inter
viewed by the World correspondent.
''Has the United States demanded the
whole Philippine group?" he was asked.
''She has not, so far" re replied, "and
will, think, be contented with the
Ladrones, or part of them. perhaps with
Gaum, which they have already taken.
As to that can only give my impress
sion."
''IIas the United States displayed
great magnanimity in not demanding
indemnity ?''
"Cuba is indemnity, according to our
view. The commissioners will not have
to consider any question of money in
demnity."
sis there no claim for the Maine?"
'That does not fall within the scope
of the commission"
sis it true that serious hitch has
arisen between the commissions, and
that a break in negotiations is pos
sible2"
"This rumor is ridiculous exaggera-
ton. No hitch has arisen"
"On what ground can Spain ask the
United States to assume the Cuban
debt?'
''Cuba is the key to the Gulf of Mex
leo and has long been necessary to the
United States. For that reason alone
she might take upon herself the Cuban
debt. When the United States gets CD
ba, she will instantly secure control OF
the customs, which will enable her to
effect conversion of the debt and re-
duce the interest from six to two per
cent?
"You imply that Spain's relinquish-
ment of sovereignty means American
annexation, and not the independence
of Cuba?''
Certainly our REIMBURSEMENT means
the transfer of sovereignty over Cuba to
America, with all it's rights, therefore
its obligations"
"Does that apply equally to the Phil
ippines and other debt?''
''No; that case is absolutely opposite
America would be extremely unwise to
start policy of colonial expansion.
Taking the Philippines would mean a
colonial army, a colonial civil service
and more ships"
"But the Americans have fully count
ed the cost"
"They cannot have done so. because
they do not know it. OF course, if the
United States were seeking to obtain
large interests in the far east, the Phil
ippines would be valuable. Such pol
icy, however, would entail constantly
increasing sacrifices and involve interna.
tional complications of the most enor.
