1aE ExAcT POINT
OF ttls solution Is that each of the arbitrators
shail give a written opinion on the indirect
claims, hieh will thus be formally shut ont.
IL has already been a matter Of understanding
that several members Of the court held views
inconsistent with the maintenance of the indi-

esnon mat part OF the case TO the very presen-
tauon OF which England objected. No fair
opposition could be made on the part Of the
United States TO adjudication on this point pre-

Roth ides Content with the Issue.
LdteT.-GNNKvA, June I.-The judgment of
the court On the indirect claims is not TO be
gwen to morrow, but is given already, the tri-
ounal having disposed of the indirect claims
dispute Thus everything is most definitely and
satisfactorily settled. The arbitration goes on,
and both sides are content with the issue.
what the London Papers Saw.
LONDON, June 2S-The statements OF Gran
vile anu q adstone IN Parliament las night an
nOuncing tie decision of the tribunal of arbitla
ton on be indirect claims form the subjects of
the leading editorial articles of sll the London
morning journals.
The Tunes SAYS the decision is eminently salts
factory. All Englishmen and Americans ought
10 lie grateful to the arbitrators, who have
proved themselves true benefactors of both
England and America. The man who rescued
America from discredt is Charles Francis
Adams.
The Ners says the result OF the indirect claims
controversy is a great triumph for the firmness
and patience of the British Ministry. Society
has now an example for the employment of a
peaceful tribunal, not to complete but 20 SUI
peTsede the work Of the sword. The Neas also
says Mr. Schenck deserves credit for his course
during the negotiations between the two govern
ments. Other morning papers likewise rejoice
over the manner in which the disputes between
the two governments have been settled.
