Debate on the Washington Treaty
in the House of Lords.

London, 4. In the House Of Lords this
evening, there was a full attendance Of the
Peers and the galleries were crowded.
Earl Russell moved his long impending
address to the Queen praying Her Majesty to
cause instructions to be given her rtpresen-
tatives to retire from the board of arbitration
at Geneva, if the claims for indirect damages
are not Withdrawn by the government Of the
ntcd States.
Earl Russell spoke at great length in sup
port Of his motion. He reviewed the events
of the war in the United States and the cir
cumstances Of the escape Of the Alabama,
and discussed the subsequent negotiations.
The government, he said, should remember
that England never admitted the justice OF
indirect claims. What was the meaning Of
this delay3 The nation was in the same
state of uncertainty as when the treaty was
ratified. The honor of the government re-
CURED that it should speak plainly. 1t should
say to the nited States, withdraw the indi
rect claims or no arbitration. There was
no form OF extravaganza which was not to be
found In the American case. He held the
English negotiators responsible. He con-
trasted the conduct of the British govern
ment in relinquishing the Fenian claims with
that OF the American government in advanc-
ing its claims. This country must feel hu-
limitation by the manner IN winch the negO-
tiators had mismanaged the business. He
complimented the Canadians on the loyal
spirit in which they had acted on the treaty,
and concluded as follows: "The nation must
show as it has before that it is jealous of the
honor OF the American Crown. 1t must
treat the Unitel States as it treated them in
the Trent case"
Earl Granville followed. He defended the
right Of the American government to having
its own construction of the treaty Of Wash
ingtor, and TO introduce the indirect claims.
The only way to escape from the consequent
ces of opposite interpretations put upon the
treaty by the two governments was through
supplemental article, and of this the gov
eminent had availed itself; therefore Eail
Russells proposition did not touch the point
at issue. He defended the commissioners
who negotiated the treaty and those who act
ed for the United States well as those for
Great Britain. He rebuked Earl Russell for
his alluson to the Trent affair, believing that
1t would be cause of incalculable ill-feeling,
should the treaty of Washington fail, an
event by no means uncertain. England
would stand the better for having exhausted
their means of removing the misunderstand-
ing The government has been legally adj
vised that the supplemental article was
amply sufficient. II their Lordships arrogat
ed TO themselves the treaty making power
they would have an enormous responsibility
Lord German thought their Lordships
were needlessly alarmed. Even if indirect
claims were passed he doubted whether the
House Of Commons would pay the bill.
