THE COMMISSION
ARRIVE AT PARIS
WELCOME TO AMERICANS NOT
PARTICULARLY WARM.
The Diplomatic Atmosphere of
Franco Decidedly Chilly So Far as
Our Representatives Are Con
cerned French Newspapets Make
No Comment.
Paris, Sept. 27. Wlille tin- reception
accorded tho United States peace com
mission Iieio Is all that could be de
sired, and while tho French forclKii
office has taken ureal pulns to treat
tho American and Spanish commis
sioners In B'Aefifsc'lJ'- the same manner,
It must be admitted that tho general
atmoiphere of Paris, especially the dip
lomatic atmosphere, does not Incline
toward America. It Is the general Im
pression here that the American com
missioners have Instructions to pro
vide for tthq retention of Manila and
the Island of Luzon, "and for a com
mission Vto irirttend to negotiate Is a
farce," s'ald a prominent diplomat. Ho
continued: "America will put herself,
diplomatically, In the wrong, when she
exceeds tho provisions of the protocol
which both nations signed. I know
the Spaniards have come prepared to
make concessions, but if the Ameri
cans' instructions aie of an uncom
promising1 nature, which Is generally
believed here to bo the case, you can
rest assured that the work of tho com
mission will be futile. The Spaniards
will retire and America will at least
have to threaten a resumption of hos
tilities before she will gain her point."
Tho Flench newspapers, beyond an
nouncing the arrival of the commis
sions, make no comment upon the mat
ter. The American peace commission, for
the first time since Its appointment,
met as a body today for two hours In
tho drawing room of the Continental
hotel. Ferdinand W. Peck, the United
States ofinuhlssioner to the Paris ex
position of 1000, is about to vacate his
quarters In the same hotel. They were
formerly occupied by the ox-Empress
Eugenie, and have been used by Mr.
Peck as offices until his permanent of
fices on the exposition grounds were In
readiness. The suite of rooms which
the former empress at one time used
will probably be acquired by the Amer
ican peace commissioners. They will
he used for executive sessions and of
ficial headquarters.
As the Joint commission Is not a de
liberative body It will, possibly, not
organize with a presiding member from
either commission. This Is deemed In
some quarters to lie the wiser plan, us
tending to promote closer working re
lations between the two commissions
and facilitating an ultimate adjust
ment. This, however. Is not positive.
Judge Day and Mr. Whltcluw Held
are quartered at a hotel overlooking
the Tulllerles gardens. The Americans
enjoyed sunny weather during th"lr
first dii!' In Paris, and they are all In
good health and spirits.
The French government Is arrang
ing to provide, nt the salon, when the
Joint sessions of the commissions will
be held, nn elaborate buffet, dally, for
the ute of all the commissioners.
BUFFALO OFF FOR MANILA.
Will Follow the Oregon and Iowa
in a Week.
New York, Sept. 2;. The battleships
Oregon. Captain A. S. Darker, and
Iowa, Captain Silas Terry, received
orders at the navy yard this morning
to sail at 5 o'clock tomorrow morning
for Manila. It Is expected that It will
take the battleships sixty days to com
plete the journey. They will stop at
flaliln, Brazil, to coal.
The cruiser Buffalo, accompanied by
the two store ships, the Iris and tho
Celtic, Is expected to follow the Oregon
and Iowa in about a week.
sfortinVnotes.
Ernest Roeber, the champion Graeco
Roman wrestler, who was In this city
last week, defeated Casper Muller, the
South African wrestler at the Unique
theatre, Williamsburg, Monday night.
Roeber's company Is playing at that
theatre this week. The bout was most
exciting. Roober Is meeting all com
ers at the theatre, and agreed to throw
Muller lnsldo of twenty minutes. He
put up $250 against the South Afri
can's $160 that he could accomplish
the feat. When the men appeared on
the mat, there were over 2,500 people
in the house. They agreed to wrestle
Orueco. Human style, two shoulders
touching the mat to constitute a full,
no holds borred. After a couple ot
minutes Hoeber made several attempts
lo get n, lipid, htit .Muller kept away.
RoPber, Jiowever, kept after his man,
but. falling to get a hold, let up for a
while. Muller did not exert himself
In the least, hut was satisfied In hold

few feints, and soon got a hold. It
was a back hammer lock, and then a
neck lock, but falted to throw his op
ponent. Muller then tried n stntnglor's
hold, but Hoeber slipped through his
arms. Hoeber secured u half Nelson,
but the South African got away. Thus
It continued for about nine minutes.
Then Hoeber tried the Hying fall and
threw his opponent on one shoulder.
The fall was not allowed. Shortly af
terward Hoeber, from a half Nelson,
got a back-body lock and rolled his
man on the lloor. Time 13.58.
P. J. urkln nnd T. A. McGoldrlck ar
il ved home Tuesday morning from
Brooklyn, N. Y., where they spent sev
eral days In the interest of the Excel
sior Athletic club. They secured James
K. Campbell, of Brooklyn, to inanago
the club for the winter months and
net as match maker. Ho Is one of the
best known sporting men in New York
city nnd promises to give the Scranton
sporting fraternity some of the best
shows ever held In this city. He has
already matched John Tlphc, of this
-Ity, and Jack Lynch, of Brooklyn, to
fight twenty rounds nt 135 pounds, on
Oct. 13. In Music hall. Mr. Campbell
will come to Scranton to witness this
match and complete arrangements for
several other matches he has on his
calon-nr.
Jack McMasters Is to train the Har
vard 'Varsity this year. The problem
was solved Monday when the old
Princeton trainer appeared on the
Cambridge gridiron with the an
nounced that he would take charge of
tho men. Captnln Dlbbleo confirmed
the story with the quallilcatlon that
ho would have to get the approval ot
the Athletic committee. This closes a
period of suspense nt Harvard and
marks a. new era In the policy of the
team. It has been believed for some,
weeks that he would be a trainer in
spite of the story that Br. nrooks
would have charge and the report and
appearance of the old Princeton man
was only a confirmation of one of the
many rumors which have been flying
about the college for days.
It Is possible that Billy Smith will
reach Scranton Friday evening. Man
ager Skelly, of the American club, left
here for New York city last night, and
before his departuie said he would re
turn Friday evening and would try
and Induce Smith to come with him,
provided so early nn arrival would not
interfere with the champion's training
plans. Judge continues his training at
Simpson, or, "Carson City," as that
neighborhood Is dubbed up the valley.
The postponement was a great dis
appointment to him, but It will not
prevent hlni from entering the ring
fit to give Smith all kinds of tiouble.
An opponent for Tom Shaikey looms
up In the person of Charley Mitchell,
who has cabled to the Police Gazette
that he would tight Sharkey In Eng
land or America for a purse and a side
stake, if a match Is arranged It will
probably take place In New York, ns
It Is Mitchell's Intention to accompany
Dick Hurpc when tho latter comes
across to light Kid Lavlgne. Mitchell
was Barge's chief adviser when the
latter recently rought and defeated
Aithur Akers for the English welter
weight championship.

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.
New York, Sept. 27. Transactions in
tho railway nnd miscellaneous share mar
ket today showed a better distribution
today and tho railways assumed moie
prominence In tho trading than for some
time. Speculative sentiment became de
cidedly bearish over night and the bears
adopted what appeared to be a well out
lined plan during the day. Tobacco was
utilized as a lever to initiate the drive
but after tho price was Jammed down .i'j
points to 1321,, the stock met support unit
recovered materially. Tho bulls endeav
ored to stem the down ward movement
by working up Sugar and Metropolitan
nnd succeeded In steadying Die list. The
bears finding considerable opposition In
Tobacco, turned their attention to Sugar
and after creating demoralization there,
the other prominent .specialties came up
ono after tho other and soon hud price
tumbling ult around. The tactics of the
bear faction disconcerted the bulls, won
after apparently arresting the decline
nnd forcing u rally In a leader hail to
meet fresh assaults on another stock with
the result that the momentary advantage
was soon lost. The H.t steadied occas
ionally but any attempt to boost prices
was accompanied by scml-stngnallon.
The total sales were 473,200 shares.
