UUBAN DEBT PROBLEM
OurD eaoe Commissioners Argue
Against Spanish Claim.
PA HIS PAPER’S STATEMENT
Spain Bleans to Give I p Cuba and I’o-to
Rico \S'ithout Debate, but; She Main-
tains that All Procedent of Internatio
118.] Law Requires that “'6 Adsume the
Debt of Territory “'3 Take.
Paris, Oct. 19.-—The Gauiois yesterday
reviewed the work of the joint peaCc
commission, and, referring to the de—
lay caused by the difference
language spoken by the commissioners,
adds:
“But, according to the Spaniards, the
main cause of the difficulty'encounter-
ed in the negotiations comes from the
lack of conciliation in the attitude of
the American commissioners. t is
known in regard to Porto Rico and
Cuba that the articles of the Protocol
are absolutely positive—Spain
Porto Rico to the United States and
relinquishes (abandons)
over Cuba. These two points are defi-
nitely settled and are not open to dis—
cussion. Besides, the Spaniards make
it a point of honor to scrupulously
abide by their engagements toward
their conquerors.
“The question of the Cuban debt re-
mains. Upon which power should the
onerous obligation of guaranteeing the
debt rest? Here is where the two com-
missions differ in their views and nei-
ther is inclined to yield. The Span-
iards agree on the following lines:
l‘Vhen a power annees territory it is
implied that it assumes all the obliga-
tions of such territory. It is interna-
tional law, sanctioned by usage, and
which has always been complied with.
Thus, when France anneed Savoy, she
assumed all the debts contracted by
the latter. While still an Italian prov-
ince.
Lastly, they remind their opponents
that Cuba is virtually the key of the
Gulf of Mexico, a strategic position of
the first order to the United States.
and an immense advantage, which calls
for some sacrifice upon the part of the
Americans.
“To this the latter replied at first
that they could not listen to any dis-
cussion of the matter of'the debt, being
under formal instructions from their
government. But, on the Spanish com-
mission insisting, and in the presence
ofits very firm attitude, the Americans
have taken a more conciliatory atti-
tude, not that they entertain the inten-
tion of yielding to Spain's injunctions,
but they consent to argue against the
Spanish position.‘ These arguments
may be briefly summed up as follows:
“The Americans insist upon the fact
that the money raised by the Cuban
loanswas not applied to the require-
ments or interests of the island, but
was chiefly borrowed to the end of im-
proving the financial condition of Spain
and to procure funds which she could
no longer raise in the Peninsula, and
that the debt, therefore, is personal to
Spain.
“011 the other hand, the Americans
say that America has no intention of
annexing Cuba and could not, there-
fore, assume such obligations.
“Finally, it is held that, owing to the-
fabulous cost of the late war, the Am—
erican people would not concede the
right to assume such obligations.
“These are, approximately, the
grounds on whi h the present discus—
sions are co. ducted. What will the
outcome be?
ence to the arbitration of a continental
power. Neither commission has yet
other hand, we have good grounds to
believe that, even werethe suggestion
acceptable to Spain, it would have no
chance of being agreed to by the Am-
ericans.”

Hobs on Comi rig Home.
\Vashington. Oct. 19.——Lieutenant
Hobson has sailed from Caima‘nera for
the United States by way of Jamaica.
He comes primarily to Philadelphia to
obtaina number of appliances required
for his wrecking operations.
But another purpose‘is to redeem a
promise made by Secretary Long to
have Hobson and the little body of men
who sunk the Merrimac present in
Philadelphia during the peace jubilee.
He should arrive in Philadelphia by
the beginning of next week, and it is
said at the navy department that he
will return to Santiago as soon as he
has secured the material he wants.
Meanwhile, it is understood, the work
of raising the Colon will proceed, as
well as the wrecking of the other sun-
ken Spanish ships, which work has
yielded profitable returns in the shan1
of ordnance and other valuable shin
equipment secured.
Reublna Walworth Dies.
New York, Oct. 19.—Miss _Reubina.
Walworth, the heroic nurse at Mon-
tauk Point, died at the Presbyterian
hospital yesterday morning after a
five weeks’ illness of typhoid fever.

ate. -When the war with Spain was
declared 'she left a school she was
teaching and‘took a course in nursing.

established she went there as a. nurse
and devoted herself assiduously to the
care of the sick and wounded soldiers.

er, distributed the supplies of the Re-
lief Association.
She worked so zealously and self-sac-
rificingly that she broke down. No ar-
rangements have yet been made for
the funeral.

respondent of the Daily Mail denounces
the inaction of the Italian consul there,
who has jurisdiction over the Italian
Anarchists now under arrest and char-
ged with a conspiracy against the life
of Emperor William.
The consul has impounded all. the
documents and referred the conspiracy

Parrini, the cafe keeper and leader of
the Anarchist gang, desperately at-
tacked the Italian consul when ar—
raigned and was with diificulty over-
powered.

request of the American commission
to permit the free Entry of Red Cross

Caibarien, Bahia Honda and others of
less importance.
Colonel Waring has cabled a. report

Tho War Bond Issues

1 Washington, Oct. 19. —In the Episco-
pal convention yesterday Bishop Doane
presiding. oflicer of the house of bish-
E ops, and the Rev. Dr. Morgan Dix, pre-
siding officer of. the house of deputies,
joined in directing the services. of a
joint session at which all the. bishops
and deputies united in a national pray—
er concerning Porto Rico.
} At the business session of the depu-
ties the standard Bible came up fun
; discussion, and steps were taken _
' guard this standard. lee: constitutional
' provision.
i The Rev. Dr. Fuller of Philadelphia
I had submitted a series of queries as to
the existence of a standard Bible, to
I which a. committee reported that the
, church had a standard, namely, that
published in 1812 and adopted in gen-
, eral convention in 1823, that no altera-
‘ tions had been made since 'then, and
that the exclusive use of the standard
Bible was obligatory.
In View of the report a resolution was
adopted directing the preparation of a
suitable constitutional provision estab-
lishing the standard Bible and fixmg
the manner of its alteration.
Another phase of the marriage and
divorce question was presented in a
resolution by the Rev. Mr. Fulton,
which wasplaced on the calendar, pro-
viding for a committee of thirteen
deputies to report six months prior to
the next triennial council on the sub-
ject of marriage and divorce.
Murdered 45 Days Ago,
Great Neck, N. .Y., Oct. 19.——At last
steps have been taken to run down the
murderers of old Patrick Smith, who
was found dead in his house at Port
Washington on September 4,- covered
with blood and cuts, after he had spent
the night in drinking with four com-
panions.
Detectives have been working on the
case and yesterday Justice O’Leary of
this place issued warrants for the ar-
rest of Solomon Wanser, William VVan-
ser, Richard Fitzsimmons and John
Fitzsimmons. The Warrants were is
sued after depositions had been made
by County Detectives Sullivan and
Downing, alleging that the four men
were guilty of manslaughter. It is
expected that the men wil be arrested
to-day.
It was only lately that the case was
brought to the knowledge ofth e coun-
ty authorities. Negligence on the part
' of Coroner Skinner to report it to the

ble for the delay.
Cltizcnc’ Nomination Regular.
Albany, N. Y., Oct. 19.--Secretary of
State Palmer, at the conclusion of a
hearing yesterday on the protest
against the legality of the certificate
filed by the members of the Citizens’
Union and other independents, nomin-
ating an independent state ticket, de~
cided that the certificate was regular-
and that the independen organization

was made by Colonel Lovell Jerome of
New York city, a member of the Citi—
zens’ Union, started at ten o’clock and
was of only an hour’s duration.

and the Citizens’ Union was represent—
ed by Isaac H. Klein and John J. Chap-
man, mémbcrs of the Citizens’ Union,
and A. T. Bulkley and C. C. Van Kirk
of. this city, as counsel.
Traffic on the Lakes,
Ishpeming, ‘ Mich., Oct. 19. —Ve.s.~1
men here are enjoying the novel sensa-
tion of being sought after instead of
seeking customers.
The expansion of the lumber trade,
the great crops of cereals to be moved
eastward. and the millions of tons of
iron ore to be transported have all
combined to make lake traffic larger
than it has ever been before.
On top of this comes the chartering
of fifty lake vessels, and their remo-
val to salt water, thereby removing
from competition lake craft having
about fifty thousand tons gross capac-
ity.
These factors together have put the
vessel owners in a position to dictate
terms to a considerable extent. They
have not, however, attempted to raise
iron ore charters to an unreasonab‘e
figure.
Chinese Villages Flooded.
San Francisco, Oct. 19.—Advices from
