WstaiNUTox, March 13 Thera ems to be some reason not aprarent ou the surface for the delayer the Spanish f,ov ernmenl la ratifying Ibe peace treaty. Twenty million dollars in gold is waiting to be dropped Into the irapeverUb.d Spanish exchequer. Although the S,ir. Ish Cortes haa failed lo taku aotlou, tlip Queen regent ha Ihe power al any mi menl to pnt the treaty Into effect by her alguature. It would appear scarcely probable that Spain could have any hipe of regaining the Philippines, and the $20,000,000 would be a moat desirable acquisition for a government which has nothing la lit treasury. There It much gossip In diplomatic circlet here over this. One suggestion Is the govorument is afraid of tbe people and tor this reason hesitates. But there cannot be much in this, as popular wrath aud disapprobation have already been spent. Tbe other suggestion It that 8paln till) clings lo ihe vain hope of foreign Intervention and tho prospect that she may, In tome way or other, be enabled to bold on lo portion, at least, of tbe Philippines. The President does not take any sack view, and Is uf the opinion It will not be long before ("pain formerly accepts the terms ef tho United Btatet. . , 'In the meantime there can bo no- dis guise of Ihe fact that the uncertainty of the situation constitutor mere or less of embarrassment. Technically, hostilities between the United Slates tnd 'Spain have aot terminated, but are only sus pended. Until-4he treaty is definitely concluded the protocol stands. By - Its terms the United Stales are entitled to the occupation of the city, bay and har bor of Manila.

Spain, f so disposed, could enter a protest agsiiut the United States forces going licyond tbe boundaries fixed by the proctocnl, but the only reply vouchsafed would practically be "what aro you going to do about It?" This govorn-nent is lu for the whole .business, and Ihe determination is It shall be forward march!" If mll(: tary calculations aro borne out,, our troops will Lava undisputed possession of all the strategic, and important point) in The Philippines by June 1. According , to the terms of Ihe treaty, it must be fully ratified before that dato. If Spain has still failed to act al that period, we will, according lo what Is said, be in complete occupation of all of the Philip pine territory worth having, and can do as we please about giving her the mom y. .
