PEACE COMMISSION.

It Is Thought It May Finish Its Labors ina Month.

Paris, Oct 4.—Yesterday’s session of the peace commisrion lasted until 4 oelock, at which hour the commissioners adjourned to meet at 2 o’clock next Fri. day afternoon, such interval being desir- able and necessary to allow separate consideration by each commission of matiers requiring such course before bring presented to the joint commiesion.

The opinion is now held that the work of the commission may be finished within a month from the present time.

While it is the general impression that yesterday’s meeting was again devoted to prelimivaries and that the adjournment to Friday was taken only to enable the secretaries to draw up a schedule of work, the representative of the Associated Press learns that the session was bighly impor- tant and that the Americans have made a demand of such character that the Span- iards found it necessary to ask for an adjournment ia order to enable them to conrult with the home Government at Madrid.

It is believed that the question concerns the Philippines and it is known that the American» are bighly pleased at baving eo sooo reached what they consider a very im-~ portant phase of the negotiations and cou- vider the two sessions thue far held as very satisfactory to America. The fact thata member of the commission expressed the belief that the work would be completed

within a month indicates a bappy frame of < PPY } the way of traffic at points where we re-

mind,

Maprip, October 3.—The reported in- tention of the United States Goverument, to retain the whole of the Philippine, Islands has created almost a staie of stupefaction hereand it is semi-ofiicially announced that the Spanish Government has resolved vigorously to combat any such action, which, itis claimed, the terms of the peace protocol preclude.

In the Spanish camp great hopes are built on what they believe General Merritt will advise; namely, thatthe Philippines are incapable of self government and that

‘the whole situation does not warrant

America in taking the responsibility for the entire Philippines. The Spaniards are quite ready to give whatever America asks in the way of coaling stations; but

will. resist more to the verge of & ren’ Wal of hostilities. Paris, Oct. 5—The American peace

commissioners devoted yesteday’s session to a conference with Major Geueral Mer- ritt, who detailed to the «comissioners bis personel views and those of Rear Aduwiral Dewey regarding the physical, geograpin- cal, moral and political consiitions pre- vailing ia the Philippine islauds

La Pairie last evening privted sn inter- view said to have been had wiih Gen Rafael Cereoy Saenz, of the Spani-n peace commissioner, ia wuich he is repre- sented as saying :

“Peace between Spain and the United States will complicate all the easiern questions. The day upon which the preliminaries are signed, the first chapter in the new history of Europe will be com~ menced, as the United States henceforth will play a preponderant role in events of which different parts of the world will be the theatre.

“It has been pretented that Spain wani- ed war or atleast, allowed herself to be dragged into it. This is a mistake, since the United Siates have leng coveted our territories. They introduced separatists and autonomic ideas into Cuba, ideas which were not shared by a majority of the inbabitauts of the island. Influences of all kinds have been brought into play to ex~ cite risings, and nence ensued a war, the consequence of which may be s0 prejadi- cia) to ourselves and may affect all Euro~ pean int:rests,

“The North Americans on the other side will be compelled tocreate atonce the naval forces demanded by the situation, brought about by events. The stronger the United States are the more their frieudship will be sought after,and the more also theic¢ rivalry will be feared by all European nations.

“Look at the extreme orient, where France, Russia, Germany and England are powerful rivals. If the Americans instal themselves in the Philippines, the situation Will be grertly modified; and they wil] not hesitate to seek the friendship of Japan England to the detriment of all other vations. This will be for America a truly privileged situation, out ot the dip- lomatic rule will be rendered proportion~ ately more difficult.”

Mr RN Taylor, opthalmic optician, will be at Dr Taylor’s office, Grafton St, for two weeks only, where he wil! be prepared io examine the eye by modern methods for all kinds of trouble requiring the aid of glasses. Eye strain and headaches are most frequently caused by the need of euitable glasses even where good sight may be enjoyed. Such cases will re ceive special attention. No charge will be made for ccneultation and ex-~ amination and glasses will be furnished when needed at moderate prices. Appoint- ment can be made at any time. Parties whose glasses require adjust: ng are invited to call and have them properly fitted free of charge.—4 d&w 3i

SIR WILLIAM VAN HORNE

Talks to a Winnipeg Reporter About His Railway

Wiynirec, Man., October 4 —Sir Wil- liam Vao Horue and arty, consisting of Mr R B Angus and Principal Peterson, of McGill University, arrived from the Rast yesterday. Sir Williem eaid be had found the roadbed be'ween Montreal and Winni- pez in magnificent shape. Those who have not been over it recently would not recognizeit. The grades have been cut down, curves straightened, and practically all the old wooden structures replaced by stone and steel. The whole distance is being relaid with 75 pound rail-,and thie is now completed over all the fine be- tween Fort William and Winnipeg.

Continuing, Sir William said: “We have now one ofthe greatest railroads on the continent ia point of safety and com-~ fort. Since the line was opeved fir traffic between Winnipeg aud North Bay we have sent nearly $11,000,000 in mak~ ing the roadbed permanent, and we are well estisfied with the resuli. The travel- lers wonder where we get all the money to spend in there improvements all along the north shore. Tey see $50 - 000 going in at one point, $100,000 at another, and no traffic along ths way tohelp us out. It is like main- taining a bridge 1,260 miles long. That is @ point overlooked by the peuple of the Northwest. There is a great national highway to keep up to abhigh standard, but we are pleased to be in a position to say that we are now getting some help in

ceived no return in the past. This is of importance as it makes burdens at other points lighter.”

Sir William is looking forward to a remarkable era of progress in Canada within the next ten years. He has faith in the richness of the Yukon; but greater faith in the future of the prairie ands and mineral resources of British Columbia.

The announcement was made of a new line of steamships to run between Vancou- ver and Siberia. This was in the nature of an experiment, bot it was thought it would not bea fruitless venture.

Ea AN IMPORTANT SPEECH.

Thought to Indicate the Policy of France in Africa.

——!:

Paris, Ogt. 4.—Major de Brazza, the well koown French explorer, speaking Sunday at 4 meeting at Bordeaux to wel- cowe M Liotard, who has jost returaed from the Congo, suid that Major Mar- chand’s mission had just erowned a work that had heen pursued for eleven years. France was thereby enabled to assist in settling the Nile question. He instanced the neutrality of the Congo waterway,which had been regulated by the intervention of the powers.

M. De Brazza proceeded to glorify the actof Berlin, which, he said, had ina augurated the priociples of a new law founded on freedom ot trade and free navi~ gation of the great rivers of Africa.

The speech is important, as it suggests that France will profess to be the champion of the “open door” in Africa, as England bas done in China.
