 Washington, March 17.-In the ab- Aence of any direct diplomatic com munication between the United States and Spain, Secretary Hay expects to receive his first formal notice Of the ratification of the peace treaty by the queen regent through the medium of the French embassy here. The next step must be taken by Spain; that is. she must name her special envoy and notify the United States government of the probable date upon which he wifi present himself in Washington with the exchange copy of the treaty of peace Although in most instances little more than a perfunctory ceremony, in the case of the exchange of notifications of this treaty, the details will be of more than ordinary interest, for the oc- casion will be historical.

SAYS GOMEZ IS POPULAR.
Colonel Campbell Thinks His Army
 She uId Be Used to Police Cuba.

Washington, March 17.-Col James Campbell, commanding the Ninth Hi Eois, Las arrived from Cuba on a short leave of absence. Col. Campbell has seen good deal of General Gomez, and also of the so-called Cuban assem- bly,, which voted to impeach the old liberator
 Gomez, said Col Campbell, has the confidence of all classes in Cuba to a remarkable degree. He is well liked by both Cubans and Spanish res idents. The assembly is composed largely ef officers in the Cuban army, and does not possess much influence. l think that our government will find it well to utilize this hold which Go- meg has upon the people. I believe it would be feasible to let Gomez organ ize and command 1O,OOO of his cid sol diers and employ them in the preserva- tion of law and order My impression is that such a force would do all of the active police work for the island, and the United States would need to keep only a small military force there for SAAONS" ico Diaz took the brigands and bandits and organized them into the rural po- lice, a corps which proved of great utility in the establishment of good order. The conditions are ripe for like action in Cuba, and Gomez is the man to carry it out
 As to the political future of Cuba, o1 Ii time is not near for letting go in his opinion.
 T don't see how we can leave the island" he said. Cuba is net likely to be able to stand alone for a long time to come. Americans are going there in considerable numbers Some of the soldiers talk of returning to set tie. They think they see opportuni- ties. l came up with two Baltimore manufacturers and men of means. They told me they bad concluded a deal for the purchase of IS, 900 acres of land. Their plan is to subdivide this and set tie families from the states on small holdings to grow tobacco. The land is to be rented with the privilege of pur- chase after five years. An influx Of will be the best solution of the problem of Cuba's future. 1 haven't much faith in the capacity of the natives for seif-government. They arc high tempered, apt to make too much of small matters and greatly need the leavening presence of Amer jeans. There is no trouble about going to Cuba to live. Our people are well liked by the Cubans. As for the Spaniards and property holding classes, they seem only too glad to have American protection

ENGLAND TO CcPY THE OREGON.
Belief That Her Two New Battleships Will Be Built on the Plans
 of the Oregon.

London, March IT. - Mr Goschen told the house of commons on Thurs day when introducing the naval estimates, that the admiralty had not yet decided upon the plans for two new battleships which are to be built during the com ing year. There is good reason to be- lieve that both will be almost exact copies of the Oregon, whose perform ances in the late war greatly impressed the chief naval constructor of the Brit ish navy. It is stated that the admir- alty has the full plans of the Oregon, presumably supplied by the courtesy of the United States navy department.

CUTTING UP CHINA.
That N0iiOn Being Regarded as a Yellow Corpse.
Believed 10 Threaten inc Peace of inc World in It's Present Helpless COnditiOn-COnferenCe of Powers Over It's Partition Suggested.

| London March 1.-The really sig
 nifcant result of the diplomatic rival
 ries at Pekin and the Italian demands
 upon China for a concession is the
 rapidly increasing recognition of the
 disintegration of the old empire. In English discussion of events at Pekin, both by newspapers and individuals, thIs change of view is becoming par ticularly noticeable. In London year
 ago much was said about the integrity
 of China. One now reads and hears
 suggestions that it is fast becoming yellow corpse, in M Hanotaux's phrase, and a danger to European peace. If Chinese affairs are allowed to drift and the Pekin government is treated as responsible and sovereign, previous demands for Chinese terri tory by European powers must repre- sent compensation for some injury or neglect on the part of the Chinese gov ernment
 The Italian demand, on the other hand, is simple appropriation by force Of the territory Of an important state The Austrian and the Belgian govern ments are believed to be meditating similar. demands, virtually completing the partition of the Chinese coast.
 Similarly the tendency of the powers already established there to claim iur- isdiction farther and farther inland constantly increases. Trustworthy re- ports, for example, come from Berlin that Germany is preparing such ex- tension of it's authority in Shan-Tung.
 There is an increasing apprehension both here and on the continent over the recurring diplomatic rivalries at Pekin, especially between England and Russia. Each quarrel may be com paratively trivial in itself. but the gradual accumulation of them threat ems European peace and the present policy, drift and treatment of China as a sovereign state encourages them.
 A remedy suggested in many quar- ters, usually unduiy opposed here in London, is Q general European under standing, either by conference or by general negotiation, as to the respon- abilities of the several powers in China and their respective spheres of influence. Even those that dread the burden such virtual partition would lay on the European powers, espec- tally England, believe some such step preferable to the present jealousies that show a drift toward sharp quar- rels that might provoke war. More over toward such general understand ing, if not toward such partition. Lord Salisbury's policy has been long tend ing. Lord Beresford returns at an un- fortunate time to urge propping up China.

MAY BE A LONG WAR.
View of the Situation in inc
 Philippines.
English Residents Believe that Only inc Determination of inc TagaIoS Will End The Sfrife-Exfenf of AguinaIdo'S Support Unknown.

Hong Kong, March 17.-The follow ing general view of the situation is from the correspondent of the Asso- ciated Press at Manila, and has not been subjected to censorship:
 The most remarkable feature of the situation is the inability of the Americans and residents to estimate the number, resources and plans of the Filipinos. Prominent generals say that two or three disastrous battles will break their spirit and make them sue for terms.
 The English and other residents are of the opinion that the exterr1ination of the Tagalos is the only guarantee of peace; that they can be easily whipped in every battle, but they will dodge meeting with the American forces. Some people think they will risk battles at Malabon and Varanque, for they are strongly entrenched at both places and if they are defeated they will resume bt1shwhacking as long as any of them are left.
 United States Consul Williams says: T don't expect to live to see the end of the war The rebels shift about so much that it is impossible to estimate their numbers
 The correspondent questioned sev- eral of the generals as to the number of rebels and their replies ranged from 10000 to 100000. Estimates of the quantity of arms possessed by the rebels are equally uncertain. The best authorities say 3O,OO0 rifles. Large sections of the armed natives are ig norant of the use of their weapons. The country beyond the American picket lines is rice fields, cane and brush. The rebels are familiar with the hiding places.
 Residents say the Tagalos are unan- imousIy rebels and they predict the Americans will be resisted at MildorO and Mindanao, and that they will be obliged to subdue them. The extent of the support which the ether Luzon tribes are giving AguinaldO is mys- tery It is known that several regi- Inents were under arms before the outbreak and the majority of them are to be jealous of the TagalCs. | who are reported to he treating the other tribes in the fashion of the Span 1 iards, dominating the island and hold l ing all the offices.

Berlin, March 1.-The agricultural experts are endeavoring to discover some means to stem the importation of American and other horses into Germany. Count Bernstoff says that the price of S30 marks, now paid for army horses, does not compensate the home breeders. Germany in 1860 was a great horse exporting country, but in ported, worth 73,8OO,O0O marks, and 9,S94, worth 1O, SOC, 900 marks, exported

New York, March 17.-Flames which originated from the igniting of ace curtain burst forth from the scc0n floor of the Windsor hotel at Forty seventh street and Fifth aveuGe shor:- ly after 3 o'clock this afternoon just as the St Patrick's fay parade was passing the building, and in few moments they had lelped to che roof and enveloped the entire Fifth avenue and Forty-seventh street fronts cf the hotel
 Ten minutes later the flames were rearing through the inte:ior of the hotel and all escape by means of stair ways and elevators was cut off. Tl.rfe were the widest scenes of excit=m srt Hundreds of guests and employees wera in the hotel when the fire broke out and for many of them escape was lm- possible.
 Probably from ten 10 fifteen lives were lost within half an hour and from thirty to forty persons were injured by jumping from the windows and rush ing through the roaring flames in cor riders and on the stairways. Many who were injured died later in nearby residences and at the hospitals and others who made wild leaps to the stone sidewalks were SC badly injured that they are still lowering between fife and death.
 It may be twenty-four n:urs or more before a complete list of the fatalities becomes known and it will be longer than that before it can be ascertained definitely how many charred bodies are in the mass of fallen masonry that marks the spot where the hotel stood.
 The list of known dead this evening is as follows:
 LELAND, MRS. Fl IzABBTH, wife of Warren J. Leland. proprietor of the hotel, burns on the body; died at the hospital.
 LELAND, HELEN, daughter of War ren Leland, jumped from a window.
 PADDOCK, MRS. AMELIA, Irving ton, N. Y, jumped from a window; died at Mis- Gould's house.

 The flames could not be checked and l in two hours from the time the fire broke out the entire structure was in ruins and the streets on three sides of the building were filled with debris | from the fallen walls and chimneys, while streams of water being poured | upon the interior of the ruins had no other effect than to fill the air with clouds of scalding steam, making it impossible for any one to approach near enough to search fer the bodies of those who had perished
 The fire was the most spectacular that could be imagined. When it broke out Fifth avenue was crowded with people watching the St Patricks day parade, and every window in front of the hotel facing Fifth avenue was filled with spectators.
 As soon as the flames were discov- cred shooting from the windows that part of the procession which was near the building came to a halt and in a few minutes the parade was disbanded, for the police came rushing toward the fire from every direction and where they were able drove the people from the streets.
