PINAL REPLY MADE- TO TI1E AMERICAN PROPOSITION. REJECTS PHILIPPINE PROPOSAL Ooneml W«jl*er Coincs to th« Front, and Hays Hpain Has Not Bmoiti, Whipped. Hituallon (trow* Intoreitlna. A Paris special says: The meeting Wednesday of the Spanish-American Commission began at 2:15 o’clock p. and . ended at 3 clock 1 be m. o p. m. Spanisk commissioners presented a long document in answer to tho Amer ienn argument which was submitted last week. liy mutual consent the memorandum of Wednesday was handed to the - Americans without being read. The meet meeting in it adionrned adjourned until until Saturday riat 11 .ay. The Spanish communication will bo translated and it,a contents will be din etissed by the United States commis sioners at their daily session. The Spaniards, iu their communi cation Wednesday, reaffirmed the posi tion which they liave assumed against the discussion of Spain’s Philippine sovereignty. They insist, that the words ‘‘shall determine the control, disposition and government of tho Philippines” ns article 3 of the peace protocol reads did not warrant any reference to Spain's withdrawal from (lie Philip pines except on her own termH, and, therefore, the Spaniards propose arbi tration on the construction to be placed on the words “the control, dis position and government.” in signifying their willingness to submit the Philippine article of the protocol to a third party for construc tion, tlio Spanish commissioners urg ed that as there is obviously a differ ence of opinion regarding the phrase, “Hie control, disposition and govern ment of tho Philippines,” possibly the result of a misunderstanding, the Spaniards should not more bo asked to surrender their views than the Americans to surrender theirs. Tho memorandum points out that a deadlock exists, which might be broken by arbitration on the eoutend ing views. It is safe to say that the American commissioners will not consent to in voke exterior aid to construe the terms of. their own protocol. Another part of Wednesday’s Span ish memorandum flatly asserts, upon the authority of M. Gambon’s report of tlie protocol negotiations between Washington and Madrid through him that President McKinley at no time objected to Spain’s reservation of her sovereignty in the Philippines. Weylcr Declares That Spain Is Not Sulxbietl. A special from Mad»id to a Loudon nows ftgoncy says that at no stage of the peace negotiations progressing in Paris lias tho Spanish populace been more thoroughly engrossed than the present, when it seems probable that the two commissions wi 11 separate without accomplishing a conclusion of peace. The feeling has been intensified within the last few days when it be came apparent that General Weyler was using all pressure at his command to. hope to see ’vanish government the e ff eot '* arei I’hilip American control, large following in (Jowrte'les has been incessant in the support of his claim that Spain was not crushed and that the army was ready to follow his leaders against the Americans A recent audience by the queen re gent was used by General Weyler in urging his plea, and one of his strong est arguments was a paragraph in a letter from Marshal Illauco to Senator Tinado, which said: “Tho keenest sorrow of my life is surrendering Culm with an army of 150,000 men nnd 200 guns to an enemy n’ho claims to have conquered Cuba while we are possessed of such re sources. Tho Madrid correspondent of The London Standard snys that there is ■onsiderublo disappointment in high quarters at the failure of the Spanish ,-oaoo commissioners to obtain irnpor Uiut concessions, at least financial ,nu«s, from tho United States, IJLANt’O DRAWS ON PARIS. Two Million Dollars In (laid For the Spanish T mops. ’Captain General Blanco authorizing received from Paris Sunday a cable him to draw on Paris for $2,000,000 in gold, to bo applied to the payment of the Spanish troops in Cuba. This amount is in addition to the proceeds of tho draft for $425,000 by tlie Mad rid government on London, which was sold at Havana last week. The Spanish authorities are making strenuous efforts*to complete the evac uation by the end of the year. OTIS EllAItS MASSACRE. Spaniards In a Philippine Province Are Surrounded By Insurjjoiits.

WAR DEPARTMENT ACTIVE, Prerarnlionii lifting Mndn For Probable Reaumptlon of ]fofttlllil*a. A Washington special says: There was remarkaldo activity about the war department Wednesday in the way of preparing troops for service in lands beyond the United Htates. An order has keen issued directing at least ton regiments of tho regular army now stationed in northwestern j forts and posts - to hold themselves in Most of these regiments were sent into the northern and western posts a ‘ BW weeks ago for recuperation after ^etr Cuban campaigu. While hold regiments regiments' will will View' now bJ he ree'-uiteil" recruited to to i their full strength. Nothing is snid officially as to what the present activ ity means, but there are several rea* sons suggested. It is Ira own that An early movement to Cuba is intended, somewhat sooner tliau has been generally believed here i te»foro. Another belief sustained is that the United Htates government de | *>*“*? eonditioriH l,e that a position to out meet of any the pending may grow in peace negotiations, and to be readiness to resume hostilities if Spain refused to accept the terms of the American peuco commissioners’ offer which are final. In this connection an intimation has got aliout to the , ffect that during the delay which has occurred Hpain has been able to form some sort of coalition with European powers to back up the pretentions she has been making in neg" tiations. An interesting feature of the matter is the ref j.:al of the United States an thoriticH to ordei tho muster out of the volunteers who recently returned from Porto Kico. These regiments were sent to their homes and given sixty days’ furlough, but contrnry to the (dans heretofore followed they were not allowed to be mustered .out of service. As to the ten regular regi ments every department of the govern ment lias been directed to prepare supplies for them and to arrange trans portalion ns coon as they are ordered to move. ORDERS ( 0U\TI;RMAM)EI>* No 'I roopH Will He Sent, to Atlanta Camps a h Arranged. No troops will be sent to Atlanta, fia., nnd the First brigade will not camp at Piedmont and Grant parks in Ihat city. Wednesday morning Colonel Corne lius Gardener, in command of the brigade, received a telegram from the war department instructing him to stop all preparations for the winter camp there and return to Knoxville at once. This is considered tlie forerunner of a quick departure for Cuba instead of n winter of dullness in camp. The order to Colonel Gardener gave no reason for tho change of plans, but many army officers are inclined to think that the first brigade will be among the early arrivals on the island. The preparations for the camp were being pushed very rapidly and evqry .thing would have been in readiness in a few days for the three regiments that were expected to come. About $3,000 has been spent in pi eparing the two camps, and this money will now* be lost, or almost en tirely so, as much of the lumber bought has been used in constructing shacks. LIEUTENANT FERRARA KILLED. Asuftssimitutl By Negro Troops Belonging; to tli** Immuncs A Santiago dispatch says: Lieutenant •Tose Ferrara, chief of General Wood’s gendarmie in the San Luis district, was killed in a riot of negro-American troops Monday at, San Luis. The ne gro soldiers belonged to tho Ninth immunes, hut the guilty parties lrtvvo not been arrested, although General Wool is making a personal investiga tion and he has determined to bring tlie guilty soldiers to justice. The trouble resulted from tlie at tempt of Lieutenant Ferrera to arrest certain men who had abused a Cuban and stolen his hog. Tlie men wanted •escaped, and afterwards thirty colored men, wearing tlie uniform of (ho United States army, attacked the house where Lieutenant Ferrera was,, and began a fusilade, during which Lieutenant Ferrera, Antonio Roman, Erailo Bettran and a young liaby were killed and several wounded.

SPAIN ADVISED TO YIELD. Madrid Papers Say It is Impossible for Her to Renew the War. Almost all the papers published -at Madrid deprecate tho dilatory pro ceedings at Paris, expressing their be lief that the United States will decline arbitration, aud urging the govern ment to yield quickly, since it is im possible for Spain to renew the strug gle or to expect European assistance, and furthermore, because it would be better to cease wasting money and to concentrate attention upon Spaih’s domestic and financial affairs.

It Gives tho He.t All-Wound Kxercise amt Hits Done Much For Women. The woman who wishes to be goo 1 and beautiful, which is to be healthy, must play golf, ihat will be good medicine for a great many women, and they can say truthfully that they are already taking it, and not in homeo patbic doses. A doctor who has an up-town gym nasium, where ho sees a good many of JL® '" fl °f w °J nailll ° 0fl as ‘' ve '* a3 a thorough , healthful development, pro nounccd a eulogy upon golf the other day, and not only for women, but for tne whole American people. He was answering a question abou the rela tive physical development of women of different classes, the woman of leisure all ‘ There'' lias tarn ‘improvement in women during tho lest ten years,” said Dr. Savage, “and a particularly marked improvement dtirihg the past three years, aud I think athletic sports have had much to do with it. “Of the physical development of women we must remember that wom en may be divided into three classes. There are two classes among the worn en of leisure, One of these is the athletic woman, and perhaps I do not see her so much as that other class, which has not inclined to athletics and where physicians have prescribed gymnasium rrvrrnnnqinm work WOlK Tlip ine third tuna cla„s rlft«-s IS is that of the self-suppoitmg woman. Of the latter two classes the self-sup porting woman, is usually in better condition, and she concentrates her mind and-is better able to take her work and do it well, “The last three years there has been great advance , in . tlie physical , * , con a ditions of women and golf has had a great deal to do with it. Golf is the very best game for the people that was ever introduced into the country. That is a great deal to say, but I think it is true. Force and power are needed in golf, good co-ordination is required, and that means muscular training. Various parts of the body are exercised simultaneously and that cannot he done unless the body is in good phys ical condition, “If a club ia grasped ° figidly ° and , bandied i stimy ,-tki will slice * ball, ,x you your T he easiness of the motions necessary " to . good , playing . tllG exertion, means followed by ,/ relaxation, which we try to get . at , the • WOlk. i It T 4 - IS gymnasium an out-door sport; it is interesting, but not excitable; as quick as you get excited you misa your ball. Wo need something in this country to quiet the nerves. Golf is tho very best game for the people that was ever intro duced into the country, and it is during the—practically—three years i that xvom*n have played it that they have improved most. “No, I don’t think that women are getting ahead of men in the way of physical development, though we probably seo a greater change in them.”—New York Times, A Woman as a Map-Drawer. Mrs. Eugenia A. Goff, who has been successfully draughting maps and charts for some years, she gained her first experience when was a member of the faculty of the Winona Normal School, in Minneapolis, Minn., by writing a little unpretentious geog raphy of her native State. After the geography was published Miss Wheeler began to design a map to aid her in teaching the history of the United States, Publishers of school supplies iu Chicago and St. Louis heard of her work and wenl to Winona to secure it, but did not offer a sufficient amount to induce her to part with it. Subsequently she married Henry S. Goff, au instructor in the same insti tution. Mr. Goff appreciated the value of his wife’s work, aud took it to Chicago, where it sold for a good sum. Sinco then Mr. and Mrs. Goff have draughted over thirty maps. Mrs. Goff is now draughting a map of the recent war, but does not neglect the ather calls upon her talents. She is ahairman of the Press Committee of ;he Woman’s Council, and has deliv ared some interesting lcctui€3, illus tyating the same with a map. Fashion ancf Fad. There are many rich plaids in dross goods to be seen in goods of fine qual ity and excellent colors. Importations of stuff goods show a number of small checks and plaids, Sheperd plaids in black and white, gray aud white, light brown and white and navy blue and white are sent oyer iu quantities. All tints of green from sea-form tc deep, rich chartreuse are employed iu trimming 1ho wee bonnets and the flaunting* velvet picture hais; bluish aud reddish purples are abo favorites for millinery use. A rich ruby red, kuowu as Cyrano, is much used for tho season’s millin ery. It is especially handsome iu the uucut velvets and in the half curled ostrich feathers, which are most used for the large hats. Many new fabrics have a kind of fluffy fringe interwoven. Grenadines and etamines have exquisite inser tions, incrustations aud runnings of fine ribbons, all interwoven iu a man ner so marvellous that one wonders how machinery ever accomplished the ingenuity of the designers. The newest embroidery is done with the narrowest and lightest of ribbons. This style is exceedingly fine and dainty, and demands most miuute work. Empire designs are used* and are very effective on the centre r.-i heavy silk or satin. Spangles may be in connection with the ribbon and give most brilliant effects. CONVICT STEALS A STEAMBOAT.
