HOLLAND SCORES IN
DIPLOMATIC FIGHT
Controversy with Belgium
, Over Clauses Treaties
of 1839.
Paris, June 12. (Correspondence of
the Associated ,P,res.) Holland has
-scored uFthe first -beat of the. dipTomnt
;"'. ic tourney With her neighbor Belgium
' over the clauses of thetrcnties of lv!l,
which have aroused n good deal ol
feeling on both sides of the Bolgo
' Dutch corder. -It
was these 80 years old treaties that
gave Holland the I.iinbiirg "peninsula '
the narrowelengafed strip of lanl
popularly known as the. "Dutch ap-
pendix," by crossing which, the Ger
od
man in their retreat last fall sav
- themselves a detout ef some 40 miles
. and possible capture by the nllied arm
ies. . Belgians dug up ancient records slew
ing ti.at several towns and villages, sit
uated in Dutch linbnrg hnd, in the
thirties of last ce.itury, petitioned t;r
. first king of the Belgians to. be jo'rttfjl
"to Ms new kingdom. Although-tle
Dutch LinVburgers of the present day
are fa id to have no such desires,-an in
" ' fmeutinl lection of Uilian politician.':
clamored for the annexation of I-im-burg
to"KlgTum. " .
Also, to safeguard the future poi-
tion of Antwerp, the Belgian annexn-
- tionists claimed the territory known ia
. Dutch Flanders, situated en the south
ern bank of the Scheldt estuary, which
the treaties named .bad also given to
- Holland.- " "
These territorial claims aroused a
storm (if patriotic indignation in Hoi
" land, vucen Wilhelinina visited the
I input 'd parts of her' dominions, and
there wue a "good deal of flag waving
and shouting about "dyingin th lsat
ditch" before giving up national terri
tory. The situation was becoming un
pleasant. Coolhesded elements in Hoi
' land realised that an estrsngoraent from
the Belgian' alster nation would 'be
" fraught with disastrons consequents.
When a confercnoe was called by the
five great powers to reconsider the
treaties of , 1839, a delegation of :iiil
ncnt Dutch. jurists, eame toParis wth
the firm tcsorre to avulil any thing in
the nature of a breach with'Belgitim.
Ob the cession of territory, howevrr,
their instructions' were definite, and
the Dutch standpoint has been upheld
by the five great powers, , -"
It was agreed to Institute a commis

- to examine the proposed revision of the
treaties of '1839 and submit proposals

Mount Clements, July 18. Ia a-mo

one million dollar libel suit against the
Chicago Daily Tribune, admitted that
.hewas an" ignorant Jdealiat'jnibse
qilently lie reversed his statement. This
was one of the alleged libellious charges ;
made. against him in the Tribune.
Attorney -Ellioti0. fitevenson for the
Tribune, had been asking the question
to establish if possible that Mr, Ford
as a matter of fact was ignorant. The
witness said that he made the admission
merely to stop the examination. Later,
when formally asked to admit that he
was an "ignorant, idealist" ho declined
to do SO. r
Tn the course of the examination Mr.
Ford defined a traitor as one "who
wo'ks against -the government;" an
idealist as "one who helps others to
make a profit," and evidently with
Benedict Arnold vaguely in mind he de
scribed Benedict Arnold as a writer.
