MADRID, Nov. Ia sensation was
caused in the senate during the day by
the declaration of Count d'Almenas
that owing to the ignorance Of the
Spanish American peace treaty CON-
missions three islands of the Philippine
group, the two Batanes and Calan ISL
ands, both north of Luzon, were not in
cluded in the scope Of the treaty. These
islands, he asserted, ought to be made
the basis Of negotiations for the liberia
ton of Spanish prisoners.
WASHINGTON, Nov. Tho islands
in the Philippine group referred to in
the Madrid dispatch as not having been
included in the treaty ceding tho archi-
pelago to the United States are not re-
:garded by the memb ers Of tho Philip
pine commission of any importance and
no regret, they say, may be felt if the
statement should prove correct. The
terms of the peace treaty placed the
northern boundary of the limit of ces-
sion along or near the Goth parallel Of
north latitude. The islands of the Ba-
tanes group are north Of lat. 20 and if
the parallel should be strictly adhered
to they would not fall within the scope
of the treaty.
