THE "TIMEs" oNTHE FISHERIES AWARD
SEVERE REFERENCE TO BLAINE AND But
LER.
LONDON, March 21.--The Iimes's editorial
on the fisheries award says it is unfortunate
for the good fame of the United States that
at q moment when the financial policy OF
Congress has awakened grave suspicious
and anXietes in Europe some American
politicians OF considerable importance and
notoricty display another phase Of the
rerudiating spirit in opposing The pay
mcnt OF the award. The reckless IAN
cuage OF Mr.. Blaine and General
Butler is not only throwing discredit on
the country, but is damaging to the
system of settling international disputes by
arbitration. No country hcnceiorward will
be willing to refer lis claims to arbitration
il the decision OF the arbitrator is liable TO
be challenged by the unsuccessful party.
The article continues, that If the attempts
at evasion and attacks upon the impartiality
of Mr.. Defossc are Of Il piece with the
spirit OF chcanery which has attempted to
force an Interpretation Of the unanimous
award, we hope and believe that Mr.. Blaine
will not be able to get the Congress Of his
countrymen to suppors him in refusal to
pay the award, and to stamp the American
nolicy with the doubleness OF meanness and
thickness.
THE GOVERNMENT AND THE CONGRESS-.
LONDON, March 21.-In the House OF
Lords tonight the Earl OF Derby, replying
to a long and discursive speech OF Lord
Strstbeden on Eastern affairs, said that for
obvious reasons the fleet should not be sent
into the Black Sea at the present moment.
He protested against the repetition Of the
unfounded statement relative to discussions
in the Cabinet. The Government had not
asked that Greece should enter the congress
on the same footing az the great Powers,
but simply that she should be represented.
The Government had never proposed that
Russia should submit the peace condi-
tons to decision by majority OF the con-
gress. They asked that all OF the articles
should be submitted for discussion, that
being the only possible manner Of deciding
which OF them affected European interests
| This was the sole question now at issue. HC
was not prepared to say what answer Rus,
sia would give. He thought the demand oil
the Government was reasonable and mode.
rate, and unless it was complied with there
would be very little use for the congress to
meet at all.
Eastern Items.
LONDON, March 21.-lt Is reported thal
Russia is about to issue an ultlmatum that
she recognizes the tight OF each Power indi
vidually to demand the discussion of any
stipulation to the treaty, but reserves the
right OF refusing to subject the stipulations
to the sanction OF the Powers, even il Il ma
iority desire it.
1t is reported that England has decided te
resist the Russian an neXation in Asia Minor
The Vienna dispatch to the Times say:
Russia's admission Of the right OF Congress:
to discuss what points OF The treaty are o.
European interest does not seem TO have
been made directly to England, and the diff
ference Is still unsettled.
