Special 10 the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, March 1.-The President
signed the Indianapolis public building bill
at 4 o'clock this afternoon. The conference
bill carrying 81, 10000 received the approval
OF the House about 1 o'clock and of the Sen
ate about 2:30. 1t was taken to the White
House in person by Representative over
street. who was admitted to the President s
Office as soon as he presented himself, al
though there was throng Of senator's and
congressman waiting for an audience. Ten
minutes later the President affixed his sig
nature to the bill and it became law. The
Indianapolis bill was the first to be signed
by the President.
The Record shows that the bill signed by
the President was OF Senate origin and was
introduced by Senator Turpie. 1t originally
called for ss,Oooeoo, but $4,000 was cut off
in committee. Senator Fairbanks at that
time not being a member. II passed the
Senate IN the amended form. The House
committee on buildings and grounds would
only allow s1.20000o. In conference the bill
carrying the larger amount was substituted
for the House bill, therefore Senator Tur-
pie appears as father of the bill. although he
had nothing whatever to do with the work
connected with its final passage. Repre-
for generating the measure through the
House. He was the prime mover in the
combine behind the omnibus building bill
movement; in fact he was the organizer-in-
chief OF the whole campaign.
Senator Fairbanks succeeded In having an
item of $3.50. 600 inserted in the sundry civil
bill to become Immediately available for
work on the Indianapolis building. This
amendment is in conference with other SINH
lar amendments. amounting in ali to about
100000 The amendments are being an

Peace Treaty Badly Managed.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-The situation
in the Spanish Cortes leading up to the res
ignation of the Sagasta Ministry and threat
ening the life of the peace treaty is said by
officials here to be the direct result of bad
management on the part of the sponsors for
the treaty. 1t is said that there was no re-
quirement. either domestic or included in
the treaty itself, for the submission of the
convention to the Cortes for ratification.
On the contrary, the text of the treaty saws
that it should be ratified by the Queen Re-
gent 1t is further said that this very point
was discussed by the peace commissioners
at Paris. the Spanish commissioners desiring
to require the ratification OF the Cortes, but
finally taking the other course perhaps with
view to avoiding the very trouble which
has overcome Sagasta
1t is said at the State Department that
the downfall of the Sagasta Cabinet does
not necessarily, in their opinion, involve the
failure Of the peace treaty. They believe
that the succeeding Cabinet will find means
to forward the treaty to the point of ratifi-
cation, and that the opposition to the gov
ernment will express itself as content with
the disapproval manifested in forcing the
Cabinet to resign. The reason for this be-
lief is that the Spanish government has
much more to lose by the failure of the
treaty Of Paris than has the United States
Leaving aside the desire of our people TO
be regular and correct in all attitudes IL is
question whether our government would
not actually profit by the loss of the treaty.
provided this loss could be charged to the
action or the Spanish government, as would
be the case If the Cortes refused to ratifv

account of the cesson of the islands Cuba
would retain her present status and all that
would be lacking would be a recognition by
The Spanish government of the legality of
that status. In case the treaty should fail
there also would be a continuation of the
status of nonintercourse diploma tically that
has existed since the outbreak Of the war;
and, as legal fiction. the two countries
would be still at war. This state OF affairs,
though really embarrassing in some respects,
would not prevent trade between the United
States and Spain. However, as already
stated, the officials here do not believe that
the Spaniards will go to the extreme of de-
feating the treaty. and probably the worst
that can happen will be delay in the ex-
change Of ratifcatons. These should be ex-
changed on or before the 10th of June,
which date is six months from the date Of
signature of the treaty of Paris.

on the Chinese Government.

MADRID, March 1-Senor Sagasta to-day
handed the resignation of the Ministry 10
the Queen Regent. The Cabinet crisis is ex-
pected to last for several days, as it will be
necessary for the Queen Regent 10 consult
with the presidents of the chamber and other
political leaders. In the meanwhile The
chambers will adjourn until new Ministry
is formed The AInisterialists hope the
Queen Regent will support Senor Sagasta
and dissolve the chambers.
Lieutenant General Correa, minister for
war, denies that the United States govern
ment has protested respecting the conduct
of General Rios, the Spanish commander in
the Philippines, or that the government has
received alarming news from Manila, al
though he admits that an important dis
patch has reached Madrid.
The Correspondence asserts that Ii has
received such news from Manila that it be-
lievs it to be its duty not to publish it un-
confirmed.
The Queen Regent has begun consultations
with the principal statesmen and party lead
ers respecting the Cabinet crisis. To-mor-
row she will see Marshal De Campos and
