NTERVENTIO KICKED
By the Combined Action Of
English And American
Diplomats In
Germany.
London, Not, 19. It has just been
learned that intervention to save tbe
Philippines to Spain was recently im
minent. This action was checked in
its Inception by English and American
diplomats who acted together.
It was through their joint influence
that Germany withdrew her objeotion
to the American demands on Spain.
The Berlin correspondent of the
Times in telling' of Germany's changed
attitude says: "Two kindred nations
In possession together of the greatest
Interests in the world, know the best
manner in which to obtain the acquies
cence of the other powers in those
rangements in the far east which coo-
duoe to the commercial advantage of
all."
This partnership of English and
American diplomats against foreign
intervention in the affairs of the Unit
ed States Is the first practical working
of the Anglo-Saxon entente on equal
terms.

been for some time.

tude of the Amerloan and English
press, and future contingencies. They

still angry over the Fasboda incident.
Nearly all the newspapers indulge la
snarls at England. The Raphael pre
dicts ultimate disaster to the British.
"The policy of England," said tbe
paper, has Irritated Europe and excit
ed the appetite of the United States
after Cuba. Canada is very tempting,
as are also Jamaica, British Guinea,
and Cane Colony. In ten years we shall
see Great Britain caught between the
United States and Europe. That day
will be her death and it will be her
own doing."

Filipino.

DEWEY'S FLEET
Paris, Not. 19. The American and
Spanish peace commissioners post
poned their joint conference until next
week.
The joint session of the commission
was today postponed by request of
Judge Day. He refused to give his
reasons. It is stated at headquarters
of the Spanish commissioners that the
next joint meeting would be held at 2
o'clock Monday afternoon.
Washington, Not. 19. The post
ponment of today's meeting of the
peace commissioners until next week
is explained at the state department
as necessary to enable tbe American
representatives to formulate theprecise
terms of the treaty of peace which
wm mark tbe final Btage of the pro
ceedings.
Many minor details will be left for
subsequent agreement, but it Is con
fidently declared that the next session
will result in the informal enunciation
of tbe exact terms regarding the pay
ment Spain is to receive for relinquish
ing her sovereignty over tbe whole of
the Philippines Archipelago, as well
as mutual declarations regarding the
transfer of Porto Rico, Cuba, and the
Ladrone Islands.
The remaining sessions are expected
to be devoid of interest as compared
with those which have already occur
red as there nothing of importance left
open to controversy, although the clos
ing formalities cannot be reached for
at least another month.

ments can be made to repatriate them

When The Maine Was Blown Up.
H. IC. Ayers, formerly representing
Frazer, Chalmers and Co. in this city,
came in on the Santa Fe yesterday
uiuruiDK acoompaniea py nis wire.
Mr. Ayers had been in poor health
for a long time early in this year and
decided to take a trip to Europe. He
with his wife and son Enos sailed for
Europe and spent quite a while in Eng.
land and from there they went to the
continent.
While in Spain Mr. Ayers said he
became acquainted with Don Carlos,
the pretender to the Spanish throne.
He, speaking Spanish very fluently, ,
was admitted to nearly every place and
was able to converse without an inter
preter and could understand every
thing which was beinir said
him.
Mr. Ayers said that he was in Madrid
at tbe time of tbe blowing up of the
Maine and he really believes that there
must have been some mistake as they
felt very much hurt over tbe way the
Americans were so ready to blame
them and charge them with treachery.
All of them looked upon tbe affair as a
most deplorable thing, and those in
power seemed to be very sincere in the
expression of their sympathy over the
loss oi ine oatuesnip; a good many
were very indignant when Spain were
accused of having perpetrated the
dastardly act.
Mr. Ayers said that after the blow
ing up of the Maine he and his family
left Madrid and went on a tour through
southern Europe and over to Alex
andria, then up throueh the holy .land
over the same ground which the Ger
man emperor is now taking. On their
way back they went through tbe north
of "Italy and then on to Paris.
"It was while in Paris that Dewey
won his Manila victory, and the news
was so good that we could hardly be
lieve it. Up to that time no one in
Europe thought that there was going
to be any fighting, but they laid that
thought aside when we heard of the
Dewey fight.
"We had all gone to the opera that
right at the Louvre and were enjoying
li e performance very much. I thi"k
V at tbere must have been fully fifty
Americans in the theater. Between
the second and third acts the announce
ment of the victory was made from
the stage. At first it was made in
French, then in English. Tbere was a
death like silence for a second then
every American in the house got on
his feet and gave one of those expres
sive yells. That yell is more like the
rebel yell during our war than any
thing can think of.
"I don't believe that there was an
American in Puris who stopped cel
ebrating with that yell. We ail went
out and celebrated right. There were
some I know who didn't finish cele
brating for two or three days
"Three or four days after the Dewey
victory, I and my family were down in
the city walking and doing some shop
ping. Right ahead of us were two
Americans and both of them, as we
were doing, were wearing small .
United States flags on their coats. Up
stepped a Frenchman and with a
sneering remark tore off one of tbe
flags and threw it down on the aida
walk and put his feet on it and ground
it around. The American never said
a word but the punch in the face he
did give that Frenchman was
one of the kind you read about. It
sent him sprawling in the gu. ter,-and
before tbe fellow could give him any
more tbe gendarmes ran up and there
was a big crowd around us. The fel- .
low was never tried and the matter was
hushed up, but it was the talk of the
American club and the fellow was en
tertained. Two or three of us oabled
that incident home to our friends."
WILL RUN AN EXCURSION.
The EP.AN
He left there the latter nart nf
April just before Dewey sank
lssV
tbe
E. Show Their Enter
prise.
The officials of the El Paso & North
eastern road will run an excursion over
their line next Thursday, Thanksgiv
ing . day, to Alamogordo. The
train will leave the depot
in this city at 8 o'olock
in the morning sharp and will return
after the dance is over in tbe evening.
The El Paso ball team will play the
crack Alamogordo team and a good
game is expected. The company pro
poses to give all a chance and
those who wish may drop off at any
point along . the line, and
spent the day hunting and return on
the regular train at 6:50 in the evening.
The excursion train will accommodate
those who wish to remain at Alamo
gordo and enjoy the dance which will
be given in the railroad company's
building at that place. The company
will place the fare at the remarkably
low rate of $1 for the round trip to
any point 40 miles or less from here,
or $2 to Alamogordo and return. The
road is completed to the summit of
the Sacramentos and in all probability
a train will be run up the mountain in
the morning for the benefit of those
who wish to make the trip. The Ala
mogordo people have kindly offered
their support and taking it all in all i
will be a very enjoyable event. All
arrangements for this excursion wli
be completed by Monday night and it
is safe to say that nothing will spring
up to mar the pleasure of the occa
sion. The quails along this line havu
not been disturbed acd they exittt i
reat numbers.
