Washington, Oct. 19.-Gen Wade, presi-
dent of The American evacuation commits
sion telesraphed the war department last
night that 5000 Spanish soldiers had been
embarked already for Spain, and that ar
rangements had been completed, of which
the American commissioner had been duly
notified by the Spanish commissioners, for
the embarkation Of 40,ooo more troops in
the near future. on the whole, this rate
of progress, in view of the limited re-
sources of Spain, is believed TO be rea-
sonable.
So long as this disposition is exhibited to
carry out in good faith the evacuation of
the island, our government Is not likely
to make complaint. and the statement that
the American commiss. .oners at Havana
did yesterday deliver themselves of a
formal ultimatum on the subject is said
to be erroneous. This conclusion, how
ever, does not apply to the transfer of
sovereignty, and while permitting the
presence of Spanish troops in Cuba, on
and after Dec. l, it is the present purpose
to assume control of the entire civil es-
'tabl.shment of the island on the date men
toned just as Gen. Wood did in Santiago

P0STP0NEMENT AT PARIS.
SPANISH COMMISSIONERS AWAITING
INSTRUCTIONS FROM MADRID.

They Ask n Delay in Peace NegOtia-
tiOns UntiI Friday, Saying EN-
Not Been Received-DcIay Thought
to BE for Time for Madrid to For
muIate "a Final Attitude Regard
ing the Cuban Matter.
Paris, Oct 19.-The Spanish commission
was unable to meet the United States
peace commission at the joint session ar
ranged for to-day. and the next meeting
of the two commissions has been fixed
for Friday next.
Judge Day. president of the American
commission, received a communication this
morning from Senor Montero Rios, presi ,
dent of the Spanish commission, saying
that advices expected. but not received
from Madrid. made 1t necessary for him
self and his colleagues to request a post
ponement of any further conferences until
Friday next. A courteous reply was re-
turned by Secretary Moore, in behalf of
the American commissioners. granting an
extension of the time of the next meeting
as requested
The assigned reason for to-day's request
for delay is believed to have been to allow
an interchange of communications with
Madrid and to formulate final attitude
on the Cuban matter This attitude of the
Spanards to be developed on Friday, will
be watched with no little interest Their
alternatives are few, but pregnant. They
may accede to the American attitude, that
they themselves assume the Cuban debt
and go forward 10 consider the next proto-
col point of the Porto Rico and the choice
by the United States OF an island in the
Ladrone group; or they may at this june
ture formally ask for arbitration, or as an
extremity which is not likely, may retire
from further negotiations.
The American commissioners, after dis
patching their acquiescence in the delay
held a brief meeting, probably to make a
formal record of the deferrlng of the joint
session fixed for to-day.
The Americans yesterday held brief
session having no reference to the nego-
tiations and the brevity of these meetings
and other indications warrant the deduc-
tion that the American attitude is well
formed and that the commission is thor
oughly advised on all the points and fea-
lures which it is possible to foresee in
subsequent conferences.
The amount of information acquired by
the Americans since their arrivals here
is large. They have examined old resi-
dents of the Philippine Islands and the
information and testimony from this and
other sources is valuable.
A distinguished Roman Catholic church
man from New Orleans is now in this city
in connection, 1t is said with the inter
ests of the Roman Catholic Church in
Cuba.
The holders of the Spanish securities
have not been inactive, and ii is not un-
likely that the American commission has
been called upon to consider a written pre-
sentiment of figures facts and pleadings
in behalf of these interests.
Were it not that the spirit and attitude
of the American commission are so digni-
fed. IL might be said that they are now
holding the fort and invite attacks. Their
personality and procedure, however, here
is such to make it fair to say that
while not courting attack, they fear none.

SPANS LAST RESORT.
She May Try to Saddle the Cuban
Debt on the Cubans.

On CuOAnSs
Washington, Oct 19-Now that the
Spanish peace commissioners have been
repulsed in their efforts to have the Unit
ed States assume sovereignty over Cuba
as the means of thus transferring to our
shoulders the Cuban debt, the next move
ment looked for on their part is one in
the direction of imposing this indebted
ness upon the Cubans themselves when
they shall have erected some form of gov
ernment on the ruins OF Spanish sover-
eighty. This would be something in the
nature of a last resort on the part of the
bondhoders.
But 1t was scarcely probable that any
such proposition would be favorably re-
ceived by the peace commissioners acting
jointly, for aside from the question as to
the justice of imposing upon a new and
struggling government a mass of debt
quite sufficient to paralyze it for years to
come, there is much to be said in favor
of the entire reputation Of this
debt by the Cubans on the score that It
was not really incurred on account of the
island, but actually to benefit Spain. Also
it may be said that even should the com
rnlssioners consent to consider such a
proposition, they would do so only on the
distinct understanding that the various
so-called Cuban debts should be differen-
tiated, and only part of them regarded as
proper liens against the Cuban people.
They charge the municipal debts, as al
ready stated, our commissioners, have now
contended that they should be outIawed
but they will remain as a just charge
against the respective communities which
hoated them and for whose benefit their
proceeds were applied.
They charge the bitter complaints that
are made in the French papers against
what they denmoriate the uncompromising
and unyielding attitude OF the American
commissioners. and their refusal to con-
slider propositions to arbitrate radical diff
ferences between the two bodies, IL Is said
here that presumably the Spanish com
mlssioners went to Paris under instruc
tions quite as comprehensive as those sun
piled to the American commissioners. ANY
suggestion of arbitration would be out OF
place in connection with the peace COM
mission and should Il come to an ire
conciable difference between the two
commissions, there can be but one arb;-
trament-that of the swcrd-for which our
government IL fully prepared. but which
