Paris, Sept. 28.——While the reception
to the United States peace commissron
here is all that could be desired, and
while the French foreign office has ta~
ken great pains to treat the American
and Spanish commissioners in pre-
cisely the same manner, it must be ad-
mitted that the general atmosphere of
Paris, especially the diplomatic atmOS-
phere, does not incline toward Amer-
ica. .
It is the general impression here that
the American commissioners have in-
structions to provide for the retention
of Manila and the island of Luzon,
“and for a. commission to pretend to
negotiate is a. farce,” said a prominent
mat.
mBXmerlca will put herself diplomati-
cally in the wrong when she “exceeds
the provisions of the protocol which
both nations signed. I know the Span-
iards' have come prepared to make con-
cessions, but if the Americans’ instruc-
tions are of an uncompromising nature
which is generally believed here to be
the case, you can rest assured that the
work of the commission will be futile.
The Spaniards will retire, and Amer-
ica will at least have to threaten a re-
sumption of hostilities before she will
gain her point.”
The French newspapers, beyond an-
nouncing the arrival of the commis-
sion, make no comment upon the mat-
ter.
The American peace commission, for
the first time since its appointment,
met as a body yesterday, for two hours,
in the drawing room of the Continental
hotel.
Ferdinand W. Peck, United States
commissioner to the Paris exposition,
of 1900, is about to vacate his quarters
in the same hotel. ’They wereformerly .
occupied‘by the ex-empress Eugenie,
and have been used by Mr. Peck as
offices until his permanent offices, on
the exposition grounds, are in readi-
mess.
The suite of rooms which the former
empress at one time used will probaz‘
bly be acquired by the American peace
commissioners. They will be‘used for
executive sessions and official head- .
quarters.
As the joint commission is not a dc~
iiberative body, it will possibly not or-
ganSze with a presiding member from
either commission. This is deemed in
some quarters to be the wiser plan, as
tending to promote closer working re-
lations between the two commissions
and facilitating anxiiltimate adjust-
ment. This, however, is notxpositive. .
Judge Day and Mr. Whitelaw Reid
are quartered at a hotel overlooking:
the Tuilleries Gardens, and the other
commissioners are equally comforta-
ble. .
The Americans enjoyed sunny weath-
er during their first day in Paris, and
they are all in good health and spir—
its.
. The French government is arranging
to provide, at the salon where the joint
sessions of the commissions will be
held, an elaborate buffet, daily, for the
use of all the commissioners.
Guns Removed on the Alfonso XII.
Havana, Sept. 23.—The guns which
were taken ashore from the Spanish
cruiser Alfonso XII during the block—
ade of this port by the American fleet,
and which were placed in the Reina
battery, have been returned on board
that vessel and remounted.
An American company, styled the
“Island of Cuba Real Estate company,"
has opened business on Obispo street,
Havana. It will deal in country lots.
Note is made of this fact, as it is the
first opening of American business un—
der the new order of things.
One of the latest oflicial envelopes
exchanged with the Spanish commis-
sioners treated with the subject of
supplying relief to the insurgent troops.
Ninth Cavalry Goes.
New York Sept. 28.-—-The Ninth cav-
alry arrived here yesterday from Mon-
tauk, on its way to stations in the ter-
ritories of Arizona and Oklahoma. The
regiment goes west over the Norfolk
and Western railway and the Balti-
more and Ohio. Headquarters and
four troops ~are.ordered to"F‘ort Grant,
Arizona; three troops to Fort i‘luachu-
ea, Arizona. Both of these detach-
ments go over the Norfolk and Western
railroad.
Two troops are ordered to Fort Apa-
che, two troops to Fort Du Chesne,
Utah, and one troop to Fort Sill, Okla.-
homa territory.
Keep Remains of Columbus.
New York, Sept. 28.—The following
telegram was sent to President Mc-
Kinley yesterday by the Cuban Amer-
ican League: F
“The Cuban American League be-
lieves that it voices the earnest wish
of the people of both the United States
and ‘Cuba when it urges you not to
permit Cuba’s most interesting and
sacred relic—the remains of Christo-
pher Columbus—to be removed from
America. .

"Gen. Mill-s Opposed to Sending Troops
a _ There Soon. ‘
Washington, Sept. 28.—General'M_iles
is opposedto sending troops to Cuba
until December, and has made a. rec-
ommendation to that effect. He insists.
that the present period is likely to
prove detrirgental to the health of the
soldiers, and that the month of October
is one of the .worst in Cuba from a
hygienic standpoint. _
It is doubtful whether this advice
will be accepted by the president, who
wishes to put the army of occupation
upon the island within a. few weeks.
In this view he is ‘guided by the rec-
ommendation of the war department
officers, although the latter, now that
General Miles has appeared on the
scene, are discreetly withholding their
contrary opinions from the public.
. General Miles believesalso that there
should be ample and geod accommoda-
tions in Cuba for the troops; he is rig-
idly- opposed - to camps at home hr"
abroad if the troops are to be kept for
weeks in any one place. So he has re-
newed in strongest terms his protest
against the camps in the United States,
and has advised, sending regulars to
army posts, and most of the volunteers
back to their states, where they can be
quartered economically and with due
regard to health and comfort.
It is General Miles’s intention to go
-to Cuba again when the troops are
settled there. While he will, not assume
active command he Will'éXercise the
authority vested in him by his rank,
and will make his trip something ofa
tour of inspection.
Iowa and Oregon Start for the Pacific
New York, Sept. 28.——Captain sum-
ner, acting commandant of‘the Brook-
lyn navy yard, received a. dispatch
from Washington yesterday directing
that the battleships Iowa and Oregon’
be sent away from the yard to-day,
and as a. result there was great activ-
ity aboard both vessels. .It hadbeen
generally understood that the battle-
ships would not get away from the
yard until the supply ship Iris and the
collier eltic were ready to make the
trip with them around Cape Horn, and‘
no reason was assigned ror‘the sudden
order to send the battleships away
without the supply ship and the col-
lier. '
It was reported that neither the Iris
nor the eltic could be’got into condi-
tion within three days. .and that they
would 'follow in the wake of the bat.-
tleships. -
A Bank Robbery in Indiana.
and three o’clock yesterday morning
the safe ‘of the Farmers' bank, was
blown open by robbers, who secured
close to $12,000 and made good their es—
cape. - ‘
W’illiam'Lenon, the‘ cashier, who was
aroused by the noise of the explosion.
appeared on the scene while thereb-
bers were still at work, was shot, and
it is believed will die.
A posse of citizens followed the gang
of robbers for some distance, but they
got away on a. hand car. Blodhounds
have been secured and are now on
the trail. There were two terrific ex-
plosions, and the bank building was al--
most wrecked.
Tue Seal Industry.
Washington, Sept. 28.—-Special Agent
Murray, in charge of the Seal islands,
reports that during the past season
18,047 skins were secured. ‘ ’
This is a. decrease of about three
thousand in. the number taken in 1897.
He reports a general decrease in the
seal herd. '
.‘The branding of seals, he believes,
is a complete success, and may be re-
sorted to annually with perfect safe-
ty. He states that two of the seals
branded in 1896 were killed in 1897, and
the brands amply demonstrated that
neither hair nor fur will grow on seal
skins after they have been branded by
a hot iron. ‘ '
Mrs. BelmoutIDead.
New York, Sept. 28.—-Announcement
was made yesterday of the death of
Mrs. August Belmont, wife of the ban-
ker. Her death occurred in Paris, and
was unexpected.
Mrs. Belmont was formerly Miss Bes-
sie Hamilton Morgan. She was the
daughter of Matthew Morgan, one
time head of the banking firm Of Mat-
thew Morgan & Sons, of this city.
At the time of her death she was
about thirty-five years of age and had
been-married twelve years. She was
one of the most beautiful society wo-
men in the city.
Adirondack Steamers Collide.
Utica, Sept. 28,—The'steamers Sto-

Fulton hain, about 5.30 Monday even-
ing. They came together almost head
on, and the Zip sank immediately in
forty feet of water.
The latter is the smallest steamboat

a crew of but three men.
These and, one passenger, G. S. K.
Hover, of New York, were rescued

sued yesterday practically rescinds the
recent reformatory edicts and orders
that Chang Yen Hwan;»- the former
member of the Chineseiiforeign office,
and opponent of Li Hung Chang, be
confined until farther notice.
The edict, however, absolves him

assassinate the emperor.
