ACCEPTANCE INDICATED. Even Then the Session Wil 1 be Indefinitely Extended, Paris, Nov. 25.—The Span ish commissioners at noon today had not fixed upon the day to submit their final answer to the American propositions, but it is deemed most likely that tomor row will be the day appointed. The opinion gains ground that the Spaniards will accept the proposals of the United States. A significant indication of this view of the situation was a remark dropped by Senor Abar uza, of the Spanish commission! today that they expected to re main here about a fortnight longer. The Secretary of the Spanish commission, Senor Oj eda, said today that the instruc tions from Madrid were not suf ficiently matured to enable them to appoint the next meeting. The correspondent of the As sociated Press asked Senor Abaruza today if the commis sions would be able to leave Paris next week with the treaty, and he replied, with a side long glance, as though to observe whether his questioner noticed 1 the significance of the reply : “I suppose we shall be here for another fortnight.” “Why,” the Spanish com missioner was asked, “is the opinion expresse Iso emphati cally by a portion of the Paris press that you will decline the $20,000,000, but will sign the treaty with a protest that you will do so only under the pres sure of superior power?'’ ‘•Well, it does seem that S2O, 000,000 is not very satisfactory,” was the semi-evasive manner in which the Spanish diplomat an swered the question. lljs questioner continued : “ITisti it has been affirmed that Spain will refuse to sign the treaty, decline the money offered and make a protest to the powers, and that her com missioners will go home. Is that the most likely result?” “Ah! but we should not an ticipate ; we know day by day what happens day by day,” he replied. “And so you a fort night more of daily develop ments here?” asked the inter viewer, “Ab, yes. A fortnight. Per haps some aff'.irs may be attend ed to in that time.” The United States peace com missioners were the guests of Whitelaw Reid at a Thanksgiv ing Day luncheon at the hotel yesterday. The Petite Blue reaffirms to day as a certainty that the Spanish commissioners will re fuse the American offer of $20,- 000,000 for a treaty cession of the Philippines, TWENTY-THREE SLAIN In Th# P olltical Riots At Seoul Kors* Yokohama, Nov 25.—Advice re ceived here from Seoul, Korea say that in the recent rioting in that city between the Independence Club and the opposition 23 par sons were killed aud many others wounded.
