(] It is-pointed out that if the five Span- ish Con.missioners here signed a treaty yielding the Philippine Islands to the TUnited States without lessening Spain’s debt in an appreciable degree they could not return home v:ith the pros- pect of any political future before them, and possibly would be in danger of violence at the hands of mobs. At the next meeting of the C mmis- sions the Americans will learn the defi- nite attitude of Spain on every propo- sition thus far made. The Spaniards, howev in this presentation will not declare all negotiations closed. They will insist that the sovereignty of Spain over the Philippine Islands is beyond ~estion, but will announce Spain's readiness to yield that soverei-nty for an adequate equivalent, and will then invite necotiations under the Spanish construction of the protocol. The American Commissioners may then communicate their final attitude to the Spaniards, but the Americans are ex- pected at a future meeting to present carefully prepared conclusions of their conte..tion and ~onditions. Should they be no different from those already pre- gented the time will then have arrived when Spai: will declare herself help- | less though steadfast and will await the next step of the United States, whatever it will be. Thus Spain will be able to say to her creditors that she has done her -*most and that the issue must rest between them and the United States. A dispatch to the Temps from Ma- drid says the officials there do not be lieve the peace negotiations will be| broken off. It adds | “If the United States persist in their| present claims, Spain will accept the conditions after formally announcing at a session of the commission and in a circular to the powers that she yields to force and owing to the impossibility | of renewine the war without unobtain- | able assistance in defense of her rights.

The witness also said he had helped Mr. Hooley in po- litical and financial matters, but had always declined remuneration for his | services. Later Sir William sald Mr. Hooley | teld him in December, 1896, that he was going to raise an emormous loan for Cuba and said he (the witness) had been appointed counsel to the compa- | ny’s commigsion. which was to visit Cuba, and that his fee was to be £10,- 000, in view of which Mr. Hooley paid him £1000 on account. | On cross-examination Sir William ad- | mitted that he had received a check| for £50,000 from Mr. Hooley, which he | handed representatives of the Con-| servative partv. Mr. Hooley believed | this would secure him a baronetcy at the jubilee, but he was informed he could not have it and the check was returned to him. During Sir William Marriott’s ex- amination Mr. Hoolcy made a scene | and threatened to pitch the witness out of the box. While Sir George Lewis, Q. C., was cross-examining Sir Willlam the wit- n several times got angry and re- fused to answer questions put to him Mr. Hooley on cross-examination flatly contradicted the evidence of Sir Wil- | liam Marriott. He reiterated his state- | ment that he had promised and had | raid to Sir Willlam £1000 for an intro- duction to the Carlton Club. Sir Wil- liam, Mr. Hoole-- added, told him that he did “all the dirty work” for the Conservative party. Sir Willlam sug- gested the =iving of £50,000 by Mr. Hooley for a baronetcy, and he was to et £10,000 if Mr. Hoole- was made a baronet.

The Governor had written the adjutant general request- ing the discharge of a young son of a prominent Denver family. In his reply General Corbin said: “In reply I have the honor to inform you that it is the purpose of the War Department to return to the United States within a few months the volunteer regiments now serving in Manila, other volun- teer regiments now being on their way to replace them. It is pe- lieved this will have been accomplished and the soldier for whom you write will return to you about as soon as though his discharge were ordered immediately.” \ Governor Adams is of the opinion that the troops will be at home some time in January. ¥ General Merriam, when shown the dispatch from the adjutant general, said that he had not heard of the coming of any troops to this city to be sent to the Philippines to relleve those already there. He thought that when thé Government began the liquidation of the jmmense transport expense that has been incurred in sending troops to Manila no more would be sent. 3 The Call last week published an exclusive article that it was ru- mored that several regiments were to be sent here, but General Mer- rlam knew nothing of the report.

It is impossible to learn here in Juneau at this §1me the names of all who were extensively robbed. The gallery of Mr. Hege a photogra- pher, was pulled down by the rope bri- gade. About $5000 in gold dust which he had hidden in a corner was stolen. The fire would not have reached Hegg's place at all. The bank of British North America lost an inconsiderable amount of “the Che Charco money,” which is the name applied in Dawson to cur- rency and coin, and it is reported also that some of the books were lost. Thomas Chisholm, proprietor of the Aurora Hotel, where an attempt was made to start an incendiary fire, re- meved three cases of champagne, twelve kegs of Irish whisky, 1500 cigars and six chairs to a vacant Jot. All were stolen. Drunken men and thieves roamed among the stacks of beds, bed- ding, clothing, furniture, stoves, dry goods, groceries and Jewelry dumped into Second street and stole right and left. The crowd was too busy watching the fire and the owners of the property too excited to pay the needed attention to_them. Hotel and boarding-house rates have been doubled since the fire. Lumber has gone up from $150 to $250 a thou- sand feet, and logs in proportion. Rents have jumped sky high. Shacks that were considered uninhabitable before the fire are now commanding a hand- some figure. There is not lumber and glass enough in the burned city to re- bulld the burned district. These ma- terials can hardly be available in any quantity till next spring after the ice goes out of the river. The price of lum- ber will alone give an idea of what it costs to erect a good building in Daw- son. The mail in the postoffice was saved, but it is in great disorder. A large malil left Juneau for Dawson about ten days ago. No one was killed during the fire, but from twelve to fifteen were severely burned and otherwise injured, but not fatally. The conflagration was started by a drunken and infuriated woman, Belle Mitchell, who occupied a room at the Green Tree. A man nafied Tony Page was with her at the time. She threw a lighted lamp at him, and, the lamp breaking, the burning ol flew all over the room. Her pseudonym is ““Coal Oil Belle.” Two weeks before she threw a lamp In her own cabin, and it was burned to the ground. She is also ac- cused of having caused the compara- tively small fire last winter by throw- ing a lamp. The police are investigat- ing the origin of the fire. g o S MAY BAR AMERICANS FROM THE KLONDIKE BY HAL HOFFMAN.

T0 SETTLE THE DEBTS OF THE CENTRAL PACIFIC. NEW YORK, Nov. 14.—The Washington correspondent of the Her- ald says: Negotidtions between thé commission for the settlement of the Central Pacific Railway debt and the officlals of the railway are now in progress. Under the act of July 7, 1898, the Secreiary of the Treasury, the Secretary of the Interior and the Attorney General were made a com- mission to arrange the terms of settlement with the road, subject to the approval of the President. The law provides that the commis- sion shall not accept less than the amount due the United States for principal and interest, the deferred payments to bear interest at not less than 3 per cent, and the final payment not to be post- poned more than ten years. The basis of settlement is to be ar- ranged within one year from the passage of the act. The report that the indebtedness is to be settled in full on July 8, next year, is at least premature. Attorney General Griggs sald to-day that while several proposi- tions had been under consideration informally, the representatives of the road had not yet made a definite proposition of settlement. The net indebtedness of the Central Pacific to the Government on the 1st of Nowember amounted to $53,523,772 75. 00000_00°9000_0OO_QOOOOQOOGOOOCPOOOOOO 0000000000000 00000CC00000C0000C00000 n free.
