be repeated that anticipations of a satis
factory conclusion am strong. It is
understood that several members of the
peace commission have made arrange
ments to sail for home December 10,
two weeks from next Saturday. This
may be taken at an indication that all
preliminaries will be disposed of before
that date, and that -probably the treaty
of peace will be ready to bring for sub
mission to the President. ':'
It is realized now that Paris was not a
good place to hold the session of the
commission.' The sentiment there was
and is pronounced in favor of Spain and
against this country. The newspapers
of Paris have done everything possibU
to embarrass the American commission
ers, and their efforts have been seconded,
although in a covert way; of course, by
the whole body of French official socie-

Most probably the conditions would
have been exactly the same if the meet
ings had been held in any other of the
capitols on the continent of Europe, for
the sentiment in all of them has .been
distinctly pro-Spanish. If the United
States had proposed London as the place
of meeting, Spain, however unwillingly.
wonld have been compelled to consent.
But that is all past -now.
From the private Intimations of the
American commissioners reaching here
from time to time there is no doubt they
are welcoming their approaching depar
ture with much satisfaction. Tbey have
not had a particularly pleasent social
time and have been subject to many
personal discomforts owing to the disa-
greeable climate, the smoking wood tires
and the candlas. Their labors have been
arduous and they have been on tbe
stretch without Intermission. '
There has been little oral discussion,
Every position and almost every state
ment his been submitted In writing by
one or the other side and then required
to go through the process of ransla-
tlon.
Itlos, tbe head of the Spanish commis
sion, has done all the work for that
side, as his colleagues are said to be more
figure heads, lie is regarded as without
a superior In all Europe In the wiles of
diplomacy. His skill, adroitness and
flnem are said to be marvelous, and
our commissioners have been under the
necessity of watching him with hawks'
eyes for fear he would make some turn
on tbem. He knows he will lose, but is
playing his deep and desperate game to
the end.

the meeting of the' Railroad com
mission yesterday, Commissioner Pear
son had his resolution ready to demand
separate cars for the two races... He was
nrged not to introduce It, and have the
law passed by the Railroad commission.
Chairman Caldwell and Dr. Abbott, the
other two commissioners did not want
to take so much glory from the legisla
ture. It was urged that this law had been
passed by the legislature In other States
so in spite of Commissioner Pearson'i
protest 'he commission voted for a post
ponement, so as not to be too heavily
loaded with honors fur passing a law
that would be most acceptable to the
white people of the State. . .
Rev. L. G. Broughtnn of Atlanta Is

that Raleigh was put down among
evangelists as one of the hardest places
in the south to move.

more evident every day tcv tbe radical
element of the Republican party that the
South will sooner or later rid itself of
the dangers ot unlimited negro suffrage,
and that a formidable and increasing
number of people North and West are
in sympathy with tbe movement, or at
least, lealize the necessity of lt, and will
silently acquiesce in the programing. .The
effect on the pro-negro contingent would
really be distressing bat for tuo riillcu-

The architecture of government build

comment from an artistic standpoint
and recently architects not in the gov

compete on designs. The Norfolk build
