■SPAIN CANNOT CEDE
■ acause Th*y Were Never
Hers, Says A Native Paper.
1 Manila, Dec. 2.—The indepen
dent party of the Filippinos ia not
disposed to accept the result of the
• deliberations of the peace commit**
i sinners at Paris, judging from the
i tone of the native press. The In-
dependence publishes a particui-
> ally bombastic leading article to
the effect that the Filippinos will
decline to permit their homes to
be bought and sold like merchan
dise.
It th m repeats that the Filippil
- are ready to fight in defense of
' their rights, and asserts that the
government and people are unani
mous in claiming nothing lees than
independe ice.
The paper also claim! that the
Filippinos have incontestible
claims upon the Island ot Luzon,
part of the Vizcayas island and
the Island of Miudano by right oi
conquest,
It concedes that the Americans
helped the insurgents indirectly b}
blockading Manila, but the In
dwpendincia claims that even
w ithout that help the revolutions
would have won.
Finally the Independence holds
that .Spain cannot cade the Philip
pu w archipelago “because it was
never hers.”
The United States transport In
diana arrived here this morning
and the Nero sailed for home.
fwo companies of Pennsylvan
ians have been transferred to Cor
