PARIS, Oct. 25.-It is understood here
that the American peace commission
efs have received positive sharp in
structions from President Mckinley to
refuse 10 discuss further tho question Of
the Cuban debt.
The ENJOYS have been given to under
stand that the president believes there
has already been too much delay over
the matter. and that Spain must be
made TO realize at once that the denial
Of her proposal is final.
In other words, the American com.
missioner must ignore any further as-
tempts On the part Of the Sraniards to
draw them into debate on the Cuban
debt matter. Spain must accept that -

crushing blow Of the war with Spain.

The nomination OF Hollenbeck for
Judge will not give the fusionists much
hops. They have seen him defeated
twice for the position in recent years and
they will be unable to discover any new
reason for believing he can be elected
now. The truth is he secured the nomi-
nation year sooner than he expected.
He was playing for place on the ticket
next year, when both fOur.year terms
are to be filed. He was for Alberts, a
populist this time, believing il the candi-
date succeeded he would he renomi-
mated next year, then he (Hollenbeck)
would work for q place on the ticket
with him, making one democrat and one
populist, and satisfactory fusion. Geo.
l.. Loomis has also shown symptoms OF
an ambition for the job. He is playing
for the state senatorship now as a step
stepping stone to the judgeship. OBJ
viously il his ambition is to be fulfilled

beck is elected this fall-just as he has
been twice before. That would leave
Loomis pretty clear field a year hence.
