DONS FILED A PROTEST.
Take Exception to Certain Actions Of the
American Commission.

Take Exception to Certain Actions Of the
American Commission.
MADRID, Dec. 12.-The government
entirely approves the memorandum Of
the protest against the action of the
United States commissioners filed by
Senior Montero Rios at Paris. 3
The memorandum protests against the
refusal of the Americans to surrender
the securities deposited in the treasury
of Cuba and Porto Rico by private
Spaniards remarking that ''never has
civilized nation committed such an act
of violence"
Secondly, it protests against the ulti-
matum demanding the Philippines.
Thirdly, it protests against the posi-
ton in which those Spaniards are placed
who desire to remain in Cuba.
Fourthly, it protests against the ref
erence to the destruction of the Maine in
President McKinley's message to the
United States congress. On this point
the memorandum says:
''Spain has proposed arbitration, but
the United States refuses to give her the
right which is given to a criminal
namely the right of defending herself.
The Spanish commissioners leave the
care of fixing the responsibility of the
explosion to the whole world which will
say whether those are responsible who
desire the truth or those refusing to
sCok it. -

Dewey and Otis Summarize Present Con-
ditions AT Manila.
WAsHINGTON, Dec. 1.-The navy de-
partments has received. a cablegram
from Admiral Dewey summarizing the
existing conditions at Manila and such
points in the Philippines as have been
visited by his officers. Advices also
have been received from General Otis,
the commandant of the United States
military forces in the islands, and they
both go to show a notable improvement
in conditions and the growth of a better
spirit among those factions of the ma
tives which promised to give trouble.
This fact is particularly gratifying, as
the United States government is already
giving consideration of the
Best Means to Redeem the Pledge
it will be placed under by the treaty Of
Paris to secure the release of the Span
ish prisoners held by the Philippine ma:
tives. There are about 500 clerical
prisoners. and the government is conf
dent that their captors will deliver
them up on proper representations from
General Otis and Admiral Dewey It
may be necessary to call the navy into
service in this matter for the reason
that the prisoners are held in captivity
on other islands than Luzon, which can
be reached best and most effectively by
Admiral Dewey's ships. I.

DAVIS FOR ALLIANCE.

Minnesota senator Talks ON = Policy for
the Far East.
LONDON. Dec. 13.-The Paris CORE
spondent of The Daily Mail summarizes
an interview he had with United States
Senator Cushman K. Davis of the
United States peace commission, who
advocates triple alliance between; the
United States, Great Britain and Japan.
The correspondent says:
'.Mr. Davis declared that American
and British interests in the far East run
quite parallel and that, therefore, the
two powers should act jointly. u.s.
81 am not appealing to sentiment,
he said, though blood is thicker than
water, and these arguments
Should Not He Ignored. :.......
My theory in favor of cooperation is
borne out by the coolest logic. favor
a treaty of alliance including the United
States, Great Britain and Japan for the
protection of all their interests north of
the equator. The rest of the world
would have a wholesome. fear synony-
nous with respect for us. u .5< +e.
HE proceeded to argue that Russia,
Germany and France had secured the
great bulk of the comm ercial benefits in
China : to the exclusion of both the
United States and England. He sug-
gested that such dreibund could have
nothing to fear from any coalition of
other nations and that, therefore, it
would tend to preserve the. peace"

ROUSING WELCOME.

American Troops Amazed ut the Feeling
Shown by Cubans at Havana.
HAVANA, Dec. 13.-The First North
Carolina regiment, which arrived here
Sunday on the United States transport
Roumanian, .disembarked during the
morning and marched through the city,
with band. and colors, to camp at
Marianao. BY the time the regiment
had reached the suburb of Cerro many,
hundreds of men, women and children
were following, all showing deep emo
ton, the men embracing one another,
the women weeping from excessive Joy
and the children shouting endearing
names as the North Carolinans marched
through. The troops were amazed at
the feeling displayed. Several hundred
Cubans followed the regiment all the
way to Marianao, distance of four
miles.
The Two Hundred and Second New
York also marched through the city
to the. railway station. The route;
which was mile and half long, was
the most direct course from the landing
place to the station and did not pass
through the principal streets. There
was only the ordinary number of people
on the streets and it was only occasion
ally that cries of "Vive Espanol," ''Vive
Americanos." or "Vive Cuba Libre"
were heard. The onlookers were only
curious at seeing the American visitors.
The troops are bound for Pinar del Rio
province.

PARIS, Dec. 10. The treaty Of peace
was signed at 8:45 Saturday night. The
treaty as signed consists of II articles,
it having been found advisable to sub
divide two or three of the articles in
the draft agreed upon at the last meet
ing. The commissioners of the two ma
tons wrote their signatures on two cop
les Of the treaty, one copy being for the
archives: The Americans are to- cay for
the repatriation of the Spanise troops
from all the colonies. The Spaniards
are to return all prisoners held by them.
They are to retain possession of all
military stores and munitions of war in
the Philippines and, of such ships as

Incidents Of the Signing.
The signing of the treaty would have
afforded subject for great historical
painting. To the Americans it was
happy ending Of the epilogue of the war;
to the Spaniards it was plainly a bitter
tragedy, none the less painful because
long foreseen. They sat silently as
though crushed and none could with
hold sympathy from Senior Montero Rios,
the president Of theSpanish commission,
who. coming from his bed, was bundled
in a great overcoat, though logs were
burning in the fireplace near by. After
reading the English and Spanish version
of the treaty two copies were passed
around the table, the commissioners
signing them in the order of their rank:
William r. Day, Senator Cushman X.
Davis, Senator William P. Frye, White
law Reid and Senator George Gray;
Senior .Montero Rios, Senior Abarzuza,
Senior Garonita, Senior Villaurutia and
General Cereo y Saons, each commission
signing its opponents treaty. Both were
tied with Spanish and American colors.
