nun icationsof the Spanish Com
missioners were set forth in much
detail in notes of the French En-
bassy in Washington to the Depar-
tment Of State of the United States
Of August % and September 3 and
II. To these notes the Department
of State replied on September 5
and 16. An examination of these
diplomatic papers will show that
they. embraced contested matters
of fact as we'll as contested mat
tiers of law. In respect OF some
of the questions of fact, is is proba-
Bile that neither Government at
present possesses full and accurate
information; while, in respect OF
other questions of fact, the reports
in the possession of the Spanish
Government were so entirely at
variance with authentic informa-
tion in the possession OF the United
States as to compel the conclusion
that at least some of these reports
were not of an official character
In respect of questions of law, the
views of the two Governments vert
also at variance.
The American Commissioners
therefore, with view to prevenr
the diversion and failure of thu
present negotiations, as well as OF
the ground of a want of power, deem
themselves obliged to reply tina
the questions involved in the pre-
sent proposals and demands Of tn
Spanish Commissioners having here
tofore been presented to the Govern
ment of the United States and ans
wered in notes of the Departmen
of State, any further demands a
to military operations in the Philip

The American Commissioners,
having duly considered the, COM
munication made to- them in, writ
ing by the Spanish Commissioners
at their conference on the 1st ms
tant, make the following answer:
The American Commissioners ,
concur in the opinion which that
communication is understood to
convey, that the Protocol of Au-
gust IL, 1898, embodies the con-
ditions on which negotiations for
peace have been undert AIKEN.
! But in the proposal and demand
of the Spanish Commissioners that
the American Commissioners join
them ina declaration that the status
quo existing at the time of the sig
nature of the Protocol must be
Immediately restored by the con-
tracing party that may have al
tered the same, or that may have
consented to or failed to prevent
its alteration to the prejudice OF
the other" as we'll as in the demand
Of the Spanish Commissioners that
the American Commissioners join
them in the declaration that the
American authorities in the Phi
lippines shall proceed to restore
or else refrain from interfering with
the effort of Spain to restore the
status quo understood by the Spa
nish Commissioners to have beer
disturbed by the Tagalo rebels
who are described as an auxllla
ry to the American forces, the Anne
rican Commissioners can see nothing
but proposal and demand to di
vert the conference from the object
for which it has met to the consi,

belongs to the two Governments
and not to the Commissioners her
assembled. The American Com
missioners do not intend to init
mate that the proposal was mad
with this design, but they thin
it evident that this would be tn
necessary result of its discussion
