A CHANGE IN GERMAN VIEWS
FAVORABLE TO RETENTION OF THE PHTLn
PINES BY THE UNITED STATES.

FAVORABLE TO RETENTION OF THE PHILIP
PINES BY THE UNITED STATES.
Berlin, Oct. s.--!There has been great change
In German public opinion the subject Of the
retention of the Philippine Islands by the United
Stats The feeling toward America, generally,
is much more favorable than it was couple
Of months ago. The news from the United
States that the Government at Washington is
seriously contemplating holding the Philippine
Islands Is commented upon dispassionately in
the German press and It is significant that this
week two papers Of such standing as the
"Konsche Zeitung" and the "Vossische Eel
tung" have published long letters from German
merchants settled in the Philippine Islands, in
which American annexation is strongly advo-
Gated correspondent Of the "Vossische Eel
tung" even vigorously combats Germany making
any attempt 10 secure a portion Of the islands,
citing weghty reasons therefor.
Another significant fact this week was that a
delegation representing German and German
Swiss firms in the Philippine Islands called at
the United States Embassy to express hopes
that America will not relinquish the Islands
and above all, not TO return them to spain,
which, the delegation claimed, would mean a
recurrence of the revolution and the perpetual
ton Of commercial troubles. The delegation
also asked il it might so TO Paris and lay It's
views before the united states fedce CoIiIiils-
sion But the United States Ambassador here,
Mr.. White, advised the delegation not to do so.
Mr. White does not anticipate German inter-
ference directly or indirectly. even If the
United States insists upon retaining the whole
Of the archipelago
Privy Councillor Schwartzensten formerly Of
the German Embassy at Washington. strongly
expresses the same view He declares Germany
does not dream Of putting obstacles in Americas
way.
Mr. White had a long conference on Wednes-
day last with the German Minister OF Foreign
Affairs Baron Won Buow.

Madrid. Oct. S-SeEor sagasta is at last be.
coming reconciled to the eventual loss of the
Philippines although it is a most bitter disap-
pointment to the Queen Regent and the Cabinet
for until Wednesday the secret hope had been
cherished by the Premier that Spanish diplo-
macy might prevail upon France Germany and
other Powers TO exert their influence to with
draw the final settlement of the Philippine oues-
ton from the Paris Commission and refer it to
an international conference in case the United
States should insist upon anything more In tho
archipelago than a port and coaling station.
These hopes have now vanished. for it is stated
on good authority that the French Foreign ONCE.
bting sounded the subject. expressed most
courteous and genuine sympathy, but declined to
hold out single word OF promise or encourage

1t is now beginning to be realized in Ministerial
circles here that the French Government aware
Of the intention Of Spain ultimately to dispose OF
whatever be saved from the Philippine
wreck to the highest cash bidder. would rather
see the whole archipelago annexed outright by
the United States than have it remain a bone OF
contention, with the likelihood OF its being some
day transferred to Germany. Such. at least, is
the present situation subject. of course. TO mod
ihcations when the American demands are actu-
ally known in detail.
As far as can be ascertained. no interchange
Of views has taken place here between the Cabi-
nets of Madrid and Berlin with view TO refer
ring the Philippine question to an international
conference; so that any threats Of being able to
achieve such a diplomatic victory may be re-
garded as pure bluff.
General weyler, whose recent arrival here
from the Balearic Islands causes considerable
uneasiness in circles friendly TO the dynasty, is
believed to have at last made his choice between
the Carlists and the Republicans and to have
cast his lot with the latter. 1t is learned from
sources that have hitherto proved trustworthy
