It appears that her majesty recently e
pressed her views on the marriages
members of the English aristocracy wl
American girls. She confessed that s

completely allayed , and the queen nc
thinks that American girls , from the bread
of their education , Independence and rap
changing life , are better able.to adapt thei
selves to a new environment than the mo
tereotyped English girls. The queen al
hlnks It unfair to insinuate that mercena
motives are the frequent cause of the ma

his work well and Impartially. But 1
volumes are none the leas disappointing ,
they are more In the nature of a polltt

BERLIN. Nov. 12. It is understood 1
Iplomatlc circles hero that Spain , afU

United States , will try to dispose of its fe
cmalnlng colonies , notably the Marlar

The announcement that Emperor Wlllla
vlll call at the Spanish ports on his wi
lomo from the Holy Land has given rise
ill sorts of political speculations , especial
n view of the statement that the quec
regent of Spain has decided to send the dul
of Solomayor with an autograph letter '
2arlhagena Inviting the German emperor
visit Madrid and to rejoin the imperial yac
lohenzollern later at Cadiz. Such an Inv
tatlon , however , it Is believed , Is only
accordance with court etiquette , If Its a
ccptatice had been previously secured , and
s certain up to the present time that th
acceptance has not been obtained.
Deiilre * Kmperor to Vlnlt Madrid ,
On the contrary , while It Is evident th
Spain Is keenly desirous that the emper
should visit Madrid , and. In fact , attemp
are already being made to make capital o
of the mere fact that he will visit Span I :
lortB , the foreign office hero Is doing ever
, hlng to throw cold water on the Idea th
iln majesty had any political end In vie
n touching at Spanish port * . The foreli
office appears to bo anxious to avoid ai
steps calculated to wound public feeling
the United States , which , It Is furly reco

pcror to the Spanish * ports wlilln the pea
negotiations are still unconclmled.

There was a scene of Intense excitemi
until an aide-de-camp opened the bund re
the carriage and found that Instead of <

PARIS , Nov. 12. ( New York World Ca
blegram Special Telegram. ) The Joint
meeting of the peace commissioners set tor-
today was postponed to next Tuesday al ths
request of the Spaniards. The correspon
dence over the protocol , which Spain's for
eign minister has , the Spanish commission
ers deem n strong card on the Pblllpplno
sovereignly question. The American com
missioners admit that In talking with At.
Canibon , President McKluley may have Bald
that the Philippine sovereignty was not un
der discussion then , but they say that his
letter of August 10 , afterward embodied lu
the protocol , meant that the question waste
to be left to the commissioners. The Amer
ican demand will not be modified. That the
Spanish commission will withdraw from the
negotiations Is strongly doubted.
The kaiser's expected visit to Spain has
caused such a commotion on the continent
that the Spaularda have a special motive In
delaying the negotiations , as they clutch at
every straw.
Judge Day Is better. He could have at
tended the meeting today.
OJcila'H K&planittloii.
Scnor Ojeda , secretary of the Spanish
peace commission , Interviewed on the pits-
cut position of the negotiations this evening ,
made the following statement : *
_ "The publlcatlflu ol the l Ucr appear ? to
b'o a broaclCot ( he joint .commission's agree
ment to hold ( no 'proceedings confidential
and the Spanish commissioners Intend to
reply by publishing Cambon's letter of tbo
same date , reporting to Almodnvar Cambon'n
conversation with President McKlnloy and
Secretary Day referring to Almodovar mak
ing the acceptance provisional on the Cortca
absenting. Cambon In this letter wrote Al
modovar tbot , President McKlnley and Sec
retary Day were dissatisfied with the rcser-
> atlon , whereupon Almodovar wlrud In
could anouvr for the Spanish government's
occeptlng the letter and spirit of the proto
col , though the Cortes would have to ratify
peace the same aa the senate lu America.
Thereupon Cambon telegraphed. ThlH waa
satisfactory to America and the Spanish gov
ernment then wired the word 'Accepted. '
Spain now complains that America had at
that time no Intention to take the sov
ereignty , nnd our commissioners cannot pos
sibly sign a treaty which not only deprives
Spain of the archipelago but deprives the
bondholders for whom Spain Is trustee of
security for their money. Spain contends
that while she must glvo up the archipelago
If required , sbn must not bo saddled with tlio
debt and rerplvo no purchase money for the
valuable propel ty she transfers , for aa a
matter of fact America refuses to lake ( ho
Philippine debt and to pay anything what
ever for the Islands. "
Recurring to the question ot sovereignty ,
OjodabaU : "What the Americans should bavo
done was to have provided a distinct special
clausi referring sovereignty to th commis
sion In'tend of now talking about trans
formations in transmission of the cipher and
so on. "
Referring In words "a priori" In the corre
spondence , he said : "The worc's were used
purposely , a.s Spain expected It might pos
sibly bo called on to sell or cede the Philip
pines or d they were to show Spain opeii ta
consider such a thing. "

( Copyright , 1893 , by Associated Presi. )
LONDON , Nov. 12. During the laRt week
tbo United States has occupied the attention
ot Europe to a greater degree than at any
tlmo since the battle of Santiago. The entry
of the American republic Into the arena o (
eastern colonization has attracted widespread
and varied attention and never before hava
the phases and Issues of nn American elec
tion been BO generally and eagerly canvassed
aud so Intelligently commented on.
The supposed endorsements of tbo so-
called expansion Idea by the electors ot the
United States has commanded a chorus ot
approval In Great Britain , while the Jour
nalistic spokesmen In France , Russia ami
Germany exhibit tin equal unanimity ot dis
approval.
On the heels ot the election tbo marquis of
Salisbury threw the chancelleries of Europe
a portontlouEly ambiguous phrase , which
they have not yet succeeded In satisfactorily
dissecting. Then came Emperor William' *
change of course toward the Spanish shores ,
which Europeans ever quick to discover po-
lltlcal portents In the movements of royal ,
ties are construing aa an exhibition ot pro-
Spanish sympathy.
Many Interpreter * of HalUhnry.
The marquis of Salisbury remains so loyal
a devotee to the old style of diplomacy ,
which employs words to confuse meanings ,
that his deliverances frequently Inspire ai
many discordant Interpretations as tber *
ar interpreters. But there arc no proofs
whatever In support of any construction ot
hl latest declaration Importing a warnlnu
or unfriendliness to the United States. On
the contrary , all signs point to a unanimous
welcome of tbo United States' entrance upon
