PARIS, Oct. 31.-The American peace
commissioners, each carrying a port
folio containing records and personal
memoranda, left their headquarters
in the Continental hotel for the meet
ing with the Spanish commissioners,
at the foreign office, shortly before
9 o'clock Monday afternoon. The
president of the Spanish commits
sion, Senor Montero Rios, whose
health at one time was so precarious
as to threaten an indefinite adjourn
ment of the sessions of the commits
sions had impro%ed to the extent of
enabling him to attend Mondays meet
ing. He arrived at the foreign office
in closed carriage with his colleagues
shortly after the Americans reached
the meeting place. t.
Shortly after 2 o'clock the ten com
missioners confronted each other
across the table on which in 1888, Ben

iamin Franklin and his colleagues
signed the treaty of independence of
the United States.
The American commissioners pre-
sented a written expression of the pur-
pose of the United States to take the
entire group of Philippine islands and
to assume such proportion of the Phil
ippire debt as has been spent for the
benefit of the islands or their inhab-
itants, in public works, improvements
and permanent betterments.
1t was also set forth that the United
States would not assume any part OF
the Philippine debt which had been in
Cured by Spain for the furtherance of
military or naval operations to quell
instructions of the natives.
The session was adjourned until Fri
day, in order to give the Spaniards
time to prepare reply.
The session Monday lasted little
over an hour.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 31.-The advices
from Paris to the effect that the United
States peace commissioners have de.
manded the cession to the United States
of the entire Philippine group is in
! line with the instructions that have
been issued to the representatives OF
the United States. Up to very recent
! date the United States commissioners
had no precise instructions on this
vital point OF course, before they
departed from Washington, much
consideration had been given
to this important subject by
the president, Secretary Day, Assist
ant Secretary Moore and the members
of the commission. But there was g
lack of data as to the financial ano
political affairs of the Philippines, ano
so it happened that when the United
States commissioners sailed they were
not committed beyond change to any
line of policy. A majority of theii
number leaned toward a restr ctior
of the demands to be put forth
as to the Philippines, varying all the
way from the retention of Manila
bay and the immediate surrounding
country, to the acquisition Of th'
whole island of Luzon. That repre-
sented about the extreme demand tha
was in mind when the commission left
But since that time the president ha!
become convinced that there is grea
popular demand for the annexation t

GEN. LEES COMMAND.
II 10 the Intention of the Administration
to Land she Corps In Cuba ny ths
Let OF January NexI

WASHINGTON, Oct. 31.-No definite de-
termination has been reached as to the
date when the troops now at Savannah
will be sent to Cuba. A prominent ad-
ministration official said Sunday night
that the departure of Gen. Lees corps
would be dependent, to certain ex-
tent, upon the movements of the Span
ish forces in evacuating the island
The American troops, he said, might
sail this week, and they might not sail
for month.
1t is the intention of the administiri
ton. however, to land Gen. Lees corps
in Cuba before the 1st of January.
That date has been fixed definitely
as the time for the final evacua-
ton of the island by the Span
iards. An effort was made by the
Spanish authorities to obtain an eXten
sion of the time of evacuation until the
1st of February, but the proposition was
declined by the American commits
siOnprS.

New YORK, Oct. S1.-A dispatch to
the Herald from Caimanera says: The
former Spanish cruiser, the Maria
Teresa, which was sunk during the
battle with Cervera's fleet and raised
under the direction of Naval Con-
structor Hobson, sailed for Hampton
Roads Sunday night. She is being
towed by the Vulcan and Merritt, and
is being conveyed to Cape Maysi by
the Cincinnati and the Leonidas.

have, at different times, expressed
themselves as favorable to an increased
standing army.
Gen. Lee, who will command the
army in Cuba, says that to bring order
out of chaos in Cuba, $4,000 men will be
required, while in Porto Rico from
5000 to 10000 will be required.
The movement of troops to Cuba is
not to begin at an early date. In an
interview Secretary Alger said:
"No time has been fixed for the
movement of the army to Cuba. Our
plans are nearly perfected for the oc-
cupation of the island, but these plans
do not contemplate an early movement.
