inclined 10 pronounce upon formula without precise

thinks that all uncertainty ia avoided by the following
wording presented by the delegate OF italy 1.-THE

Mr. Cyrus Field in the conclusion OF his observations

tribute to the success OF such grave question: but as
delegate of without maritime coasts, he will
stain from voting NJ de Rego of Portugal will abstain
also. He knows that his Government has received the

would dc in contradiction with II. NJ. ShOda or Japan
had listened with interest to the declaration Of NJ
SuensOn, but before treating of arrangements of that
character with Japan he thinks that the question
should first be decided by the European governments.
When the latter shall have solved it, 1t may be arranged
with Japan automatically.

sion. Mr. de Luders OF Russia and NJ Radoycovitch Of
Serya, propose adjournment. Messrs. nchent,
