There is no. national triumph to be teoorded in this treaty. There Is no gtey sought for any par ticular nation. The though t at the statesmen collectd around that table waa of their people, of the ssBertags they had gone through, of the lessee they had incurred, of that great throb bing heart which was bo .depressed, so forlorn, so sad in every memory it had of the Ave tragical years that have gone by. .
