The Phillipines Ours

SPAIN YIELDS ALL TO THE UNITED  STATES

In Order to Conclude a Treaty of Peace - European Diplomats Bitterly Resent America's Acquisitions.

Paris, Nov. 28. - The joint peace commissions met promptly at 2 o'clock this afternoon and the Spanish commissioners immediately announced the acceptance of the American demands.

The Spanish acceptance was made verbally. A written acceptance will be presented later.

The Spanish commissioner announced that being authorized by their government to reply that the American propositions are inadmissible, and are not proper compromise on legal principles, on the Spanish part all diplomatic resources are exhausted and the Spanish commission is now asked to accept or reject the propositions.
Spain, inspired by reasons of patriotism and humanity, and to avoid the horrors of war, resigns herself to the power of the victor.
She accepts the offered conditions in order to conclude a treaty of peace.
There is no denying that the whole European continent will bitterly resent American acquisition of the Phillipines. This sentiment is not confined to diplomats; but especially here in Paris it is the opinion constantly heard in the highest French society.
