LONDON, Nov. 25. — The Madrid correspondent of the Daily Mail says: The Cabinet will take a final decision Friday, but it is agreed in principle to authorize Senor Montero Rios, president of the Spanish com- mission, to sign a peace treaty, although the commissioners may be instructed to insist upon its ratification by the Cortes. It is believed this decision will pro- voke an internal crisis. 00 0000000000000 (] 000000000000 TO CHASE AWAY THAT CHILLY FEELIN ADVERTISTMENTS. = An OQvercoat! 0000000000000 00000 PARIS, Nov. 24.—The Spanish Com- missioners at noon to-day had not fixed upon the day to submit their final answer to the American proposi- tion, but it is deemed most likely that Saturday will be the day appointed.

H. HARVEY, Umpire. R R e R SR R g + Press asked Aberzusa if the commis- sion would be able to leave Paris next week with the treaty. He responded, with a sidelong glance, as though to observe whether his questioner noted the significance of the reply, “I sup- pose we shall be here for another fort- night.” “Why,” the Spanish Commissioner was asked, “Is the opinion expressed so emphatically by a portion of the Paris press that you will decline the $20,000,000, but will sign the treaty with a protest that you do so only under the ure of superior power?” ell, it does seem that $20,000,000 is the semi-evasive manner in which the Spanish diplomat answered the question. His questioner continued, “Then it has been affirmed that Spain will re- fuse to sign the treaty, decline the money offered and make a protest to European powers and that her Com- missioners will go home. Is that the most likely result?” “Ah, but we should not anticipate; we should know day by day what hap- pens day by day.” “And you ant developments here?" “Ah, yes, we will be here a fortnight. | Perhaps some affairs may 'be attended to in that time.” The Petit Bleu reaffirms to-day as a certainty that the Spanish Commis- sioners will refuse the amount offered of $20,000,000 for a treaty cession of the Philippines. | MADRID, Nov. 24.—An official dis- patch from Manila says that reinforce- ments of American troops, numbering | icipate more daily ippine Islands. The Madrid newspapers comment bit- terly upon the peace conditions of the | United States and upon the landing of | American reinforcements in the Philip- | pine Islands. The Imparcial expresses | the belief that “the American exac- tions are becoming harder and harder,” and adds that there ‘“‘appears to be a Eurcpean plot in favor of might against | right.” —- WOULD PURCHASE ; ADDITIONAL ISLANDS Belief That the Administration ‘Wants tne Carolines, Ualan and the Pelew Group. NEW YORK, Nov. 24—The Wash- ington correspondent of the Herald telegraphs: There is no reason to be- lieve that the administration would be willing to purchase from Spain not only the Philippines and Ualan Island, but all of the Carolines and the Pelew group. Much regret is felt in official circles, | particularly among naval men, at the | failure of the President to insert in the peace protocol a provision regarding the Caroline and Pelew islands similar to that relating to the Philippines. It {s no longer a secret that during the war the Naval War Board and Com- mander R. B. Bradford, chief of the bureau of equipment of the Navy De- partment, strenuously urged upon Sec- retary Long and the President the seizure of the Carolines. In fact, I un- derstand that one of the monitors sent to Manila was selected by the board for this duty, but the President failed to approve the proposition. Behind the proposition to buy Ualan lies the hope in some quarters that Spain will make a counter proposition for the cession of the entire group and Pelew Islands for an increased compensation. The belief prevails here that the Germans will bring pressure to bear upon Spain to prevent her from selling the Carolines to the United States. Such action would undoubtedly be looked upon as cause for a breach of friendship. Oregon and Iowa at Montevideo. MONTEVIDEO, Uruguay, Nov. 24— The United States battle-ships Oregon and Iowa and the colller Celtic have ar- rived here to recoal and take on board supplies of provisions. The man with ten dollars in his clothes is a wealthy man, for money is only dood, for what it buys, and in our houwse it buys a lot of comfort, and an article of comfort these days is an Overcoat, and aten-dollar bill puts yow in the way of owning aboutas handsome an overcoat as any one wishes to wear, no matter how extravagant yowr tastes may be. The Overcoats are ex- travagant in this way only, the fabrics they rep- resent are those very swell Venetians in the light- colored shades. Add to that the fact that they're lined with the very best quality of Italian cloth. Broad inner facings, the inner facinds. to set ‘em off, are piped with 4 rows of satin; satin striped sleeve linings, cut as only the swellest tailors cut their coats, and there yow are, and these for a Ten Dollar Bill! Now, if you see this coat on someone of your friends perhaps yow'll bedrudge him the wearing of it, as yow may claim that only the wealthy can indulge in such extravagant fancies, but ten dollars is not an extravagant price. Come and see what we can do for yowin both Suits and Overcoats. Of course, Overcoats are owur hobby. We devote a whole floor to ‘em, 14,700 square feet. i ©-11-15-15 KEARNY ST. THE FRISCO BOYS. DISASTERS IN Misfortunes of the Steamer Utopia. VISITED BY FIRE AND STORM FLAMES SPREAD DURING A MOST SEVERE GALE. One Passenger of the Unlucky Craft Jumps Into a Life Boat and Is Drowned—Buildings Burned at Skaguay. Special Dispatch to The Call. PORT TOWNSEND, Nov. 24—Ac- cording to reports brought down from the north by the steamship Farallon, Captain John Roberts, arriving to-night from Alaska, the winter season has set in early and is accompanied by a series of disasters. Captain Roberts reports the roughest trip in his experience in northern waters, having encountered a series of gales during the entire voyage. The Farallon brings news of the mis- fortunes of the steamer Utopia, Cap- tain White, embracing both fire and storm. On the north-bound trip of the Utopia, during a severe gale off Cape Fanshaw, thirty miles from Wrangel Narrows, fire broke out in the forward cabin, which rapidly spread, and for a time bid fair to consume the vessel and consign all on board to a watery grave. As a precautionary measure Captain White gave orders to lower the boats and rafts, with instructions for no one to enter them until the word was given. A passenger whose name is unknown became greatly excited, and as soon as the first boat struck the water jumped into it, and at the same time a high sea struck the boat, capsizing it, and the unfortunate fellow was drowned, despite the heroic efforts fade to save hi im. Through the almost superhuman ef- forts of the captain and crew the fire was extinguished after it had burned the pilot house, wheel and forward part of the cabin. In this condition the TUtopla pro- | NORTHERN WATERS | o horses were burned to death. | Arden, e.

At the place where she was picked up there was no anchorage. The Farallon towed her to Juneau. Her cargo is considerably damaged, and several passengers lost their entire effects.

In the course of his remarks Mr. | Jackson said a great German - chief, | upon reading the report of the battle of | Santiago, expressed unqualified admir tion of the spirit of the American soi-| diers who, though knowing that the | enemy was armed with better weapons, never for a moment doubted that they | would win the victory. General Wheaton, in his address, said he hoped Congress realized the fact that the United States needed an army com- mensurate with the requirements of a great nation. The dinner was followed by a dance. —_————— At Glen Park. A large crowd visited Glen Park yester- day. The new vaudeville tent has been completed, and an interesting entertain- ment was given under its cover. After the performance the balloon ascension and parachute jump by Professor Conlan was successfully ‘accomplished. There was a strong wind blowing at the time, and it carried the professor close to the Ban Mateo County line. The new rustic restaurant was opened yesterday. CONSOLIDATION NOT A SUCCESS | | Puget Sound University | Withdraws. WILL NOW GO IT ALONE THE PORTLAND INSTITUTION BREAKS PROMISES. Trustees of the Tacoma Concern De- cide to Disobey Bishop Mc- | Cabe and Run Inde- pendently. Special Dispatch to The Call. TACOMA, Nov. 24.—Puget Sound | University of Tacoma and the Oregon | University of Portland, both” Methodist | institutions, were consolidated in Sep- tember by the action of a special edu- cational commission of both, of which Bishop McCabe and Dr. Payne, secre- tary of the Methodist educational board, were prominent members. The consolidated university was located at Portland, after a sharp contest be- | tween Tacoma and Portland, the latter city agreeing to furnish buildings and a site free of debt, besides paying off | $45,000 indebtedness of the Puget Sound University here. After two months of intermittent ef- | forts in that direction Portland has | failed to pay this indebtedness or keep her promises in other respects. This course has greatly exasperated the trustees of the Puget Sound University, who were morally responsible for its indebtedness. The climax was reached to-day when the Puget Sound Uni- versity trustees voted to disobey Bishop McCabe and the special com- mission by withdrawing from the con- solidation plan and continuing the | achool here. Pledges of liberal sup- | port locally and from wealthy Eastern Methodists have been received. The university will be reopened in | January, and an appeal will be made to the Puget Sound and general confer- ences from the action of Bishop Me- Cabe's commission. | the university trustees, says the com-. mission was plainty wrong from a legal standpoint, and that the university must be maintained in order to fulfill the promises made to local contributors toward its support. The university has grown steadily since it was established in 1890, with Rev. F. B. Cherington, now a Congregational minister in San Francisco, as its first president. Last vear it had nearly 400 pupils. GENERAL HOLIDAY AT VOLUNTEER CAMPS All Drills Suspended and the Troops Have Various Forms of Enter- tainment. SAVANNAH, Ga., Nov. 24—Every sol- dier in the Seventh Corpswas made to feel that to-day was Thanksgiving. All drills were abandoned for the day, and at 2 o'clock each man received a donation of turkey, fruit and cake. Over 24,000 tur- keys and several wagon-loads of fruit and cake were sent out to the camp this morning. The feast for General Lee's men was provided for by the ladies of “harleston. The provost guard regiment, the Fourth Illinois, was especially enter- tained in a separate refreshment tent. The square tables were covered withflags and flowers. The members of the teams of the First Texas and Forty-ninth Io- we played a game of football in the park before a large crowd. General Lee at- tended services at St. John's Church.
