Paris, Aug. 19.-The American position
in the Far East is attracting great atten-
ton. The Solen says: THE Americans
will quadruple the value of the Phil
ippines and Manila will become the rival
of Hong Kong.
The United States VIII have a prepon-
derating situation in Chinese waters. There

Disposition of the Islands.

Disposition of the Islands.
London, Aug. 19.-The Vienna corre-
spondent of the Times says: development
of the Philippines question win be watch
ed here with the keenest interest. Circum-
stances appear TO point 20 the retention of
the islands by America. The fact that Sem
ator Davis, who Is a public advocate of
complete annexation and Secretary of State
Day. a supporter of the Hawaiian policy,
are appointed commissioners is regarded
as indicating that President Mckinley fa-
vors their retention.
ut Is acknowledged that President Nc
Kinley has hitherto manifested exceptional
diplomatic tact in his treatment both Of
the Spanish government and of public
opinion in the United States. He conducted
the negotiations with such foresight and
consideration that the Madrid cabinet has
been able gradually to accustom the pop
ulation to the inevitable sacrifices imposed
by the outcome Of the war.
"The papers generally expect that Rus
slas attitude will prove an important fac
tor in the situation The German press
has raised the bogie of Intervention talk
and of the United States sounding the
European Powers on the question of an
nexaton. Nothing is known here Of any
such feelers, and 1t may be taken as
granted that the United States has done
and will do nothing of the kind. America
has already given indications that she
would unhestatingly resent interference
without waiting to count the cost. IL Is
recognized that the American is a
very different sort of man
from the Turk, for example,
and might, If an attempt were made to
intimidate, suddenly transfer the conflict
from the diplomatic sphere to one in
which it would be extremely difficult to
maintain either a concert of the Powers
