Part*. Dec. 10 - Tbe signing of tbe
[ treaty of peace tonight would hare as
-1 forded a subject for a gret historical
painting The group gathered about
the table la tb* stalely chamber of th*
foreign office wa* imprewlv* ta itself,
while the fact that the see** of the
momen i our aeaa of the I roues which the
act decided was deeply felt by all tbe
partlrlpaat*. gave sn Impressive and
solemn tone to the scene
Around tbe great mahogany table
sat the tea arbitrator* of the deetlalea
of an old and a young nation. Ranged
.-•funding behind them were nutu-jous
attaches of th# American commission.
The jets front tbe crystal chandeliers
,abor* tbe beads of those preseni mng
ntfled the bri.llant green and scarlet
of the upholitering Into gmudlne**.
There was a theatrical cont ast be
tween th? black-clothed actor* and the
scenery. To tb- Americans It was the
happy ending of the epilogue ofi war;
to the Spaniards tt was a bitter trag
edy, none th# less painful because long
fore* cn. They sat silently a* though
alcnort crushed, and none could with
hold sympathy from Scnor Montero
Itins, the president of the Spanish com
mission. who. coming from his bed.
waa bundled In a great overcoat, al
though log* were burning inethe fire
place n'ar by.
The spirits of the two bodies were
symbolized by the clothes worn by the
members of the commissions, for the
Americans were attired In evoning
dre<s for the dinner given them tmme
i diately after the meeting by the Due
;d« Loubat. and the Spaniards wore
black freck coats.
1 heir l irst Meeting.
Although the commissions met at
j 3:30 o’clocK. expecting to finish thplr
work in half au hour, the engrossing
of the treaty on parchment wa* found
to bn so troublesome that It delayed
the signing of the dorum'mt until 8:20.
Clerk Martin, of the American com.nl*-
sion. worked all day without even
stopping to eat. When he came Into
the chamber at 7:30 with the docu
ment he found tha coromiss'-ouers wait
ing. The Spanish copy had arrived a
half hour earlier. Mr. Arthur Fergu
son then proceeded to read first
his and after that the Spanish
version of the treaty. This finished,
two copies were passed around ths
table, the commissioners signing them
in trie order of their rank:
William R. Day, Senator Cushman
K. Davis, Senator William F. Frye,
Whitelaw Reid, and Senator George
Gray; S.-nor Montero Rios, Senor
Aburrzuza, Senor Garnlca, Senor Vil
iauratia, and General Ccrero y Saons,
each commissioner signing its oppo
nonet’a treaty. Both were tied with tbe
Spanish and American colors.
When the seals were prepared to be
affixed attendants were sent scurrying
j for ribbons of the French tri-coiot,
with which the documents were sealed
as a compliment to the Frencu hosts
of tbe commissions.
Many officials interestedly watched
every detail of the proceedings.
The Last Seal.
The last seal being impressed, the
commlaatoners rose, and without for
jaallty each members shook th# hands
of all hiS antagonists, and: *xchange&
Esattrancercf sincere-personal esteem.

of interrogations and answers:
“Were you interfered with In any
way by any superior officer In your;
contracts for supplies from the ord
nance department?
“I hav; ro complaints to make. I
could not say so. because it would bn
too sweeping a reply."
“Were any contract* made of which
you did not approve?"
"Yes. in some cases, one for 10.000
Winchester ritiea.”
And how many guns?”
"in one case* —for sour uipid tire
guns.”
"Had yon experimented with models
of them at Sandy Hook?”
"Yes.’
"Were they satisfactory?”
"Well, one type, a wire wound gun.
was not satisfactory.
"Wore any of your recommendations
as to purchases of arms overruled or
turned down?"
"Yes.”
Questioned as to tho rifles contracted
for without, his approval, General Flag
ler said they were purchas d by tho

tain. he presumed they were on the re
