TO COM PULSORY ARBITRATION. 23 NATIONS ARE AFFECTED Unless There Is Changs of 8entlment , Renewal of Peace Conventions ' , May Be' 'Impossible. ' Washlngton.-The principle of com 'pulsory arbitration "written Into the code that has bound the United States with twenty-four nations of the world for the last Ave years, is in serious danger and unless there Is a decided change In sentiment in the senate the renewal of twenty-three of the trea ties which gave concrete evidence of this nation's belief In such a policy may be Impossible. In executive ses sion the senate again failed to ratify ment with Great Britain, Italy and renewals of the arbitration agree Spaln, which recently expired. These conventions provide that questions re lating to the Interpretation of treaties, excepting those that cannot be settled through diplomatic, channels or those of vtial Interest national honor or In dependence, shall ' be submitted to The Hague. A similar treaty with France has already been renewed. The main argument arose over the contention that if the treaty with Great Britain is ratified the Panama canal tolls question would have to be submitted to The Hague, but during the discussion the Japanese question and the general attitude of the nation toward compulsory arbitration was brought up and led to the expression of views utterly at variance with en trance Into such binding agreementa in the future. . A motion to re-refer the three treat- ties to the foreign relations commit tee with lnstrudtons that the one with Great Britain be modified so as to exempt specifically the Panama ca nal tolls question, was abandoned, but prolonged debate was predicted for fu ture sessions and friends of the prin ciple of arbitration were alarmed at the atrentgh displayed by the 'oppo sition. One senator went so far as a A wst a a , "There are man)1 people In the Unit ed States and in the senate who ought to live in England."

"Having been left without any pro tection whatever on the part of both sides In the pending controversy. therefore we can look for protection only from our own country. We must know once for all it we can expect same. . Having oeen suojeciea iu slights and a great variety of indigni ties and gross abuse, the situation calls for most serious preparations for our personal safety and the de fense of our-families and our inter ests. Therefore we have assembled for the purpose of considering the best way. .We consider protection nec essary now since . that after death it will be of no utility." , Three Battleships Asked For.
