A POINT OF INTERN ArIoNAL LAW.
termininB the Status OF the Mexican
Treaty.

The House VIII Have IL Voice In De-
termining the Status Of the Mexican
Treaty.
The original text Of the Mexican treaty
provided that "the present convention shall
take effect as soon as it has been approved
and ratified by both contracting parties ac-
cording to their respective constitutions, but
not until the laws and regulations that each
shall deem necessary to carry it into opera
ton shall have boon passed, both by the
government of the United States of America
and by the government Of the United Mexi-
can States"
This latter clause was so amended in tho
senate as to read: "But not until the laws
necessary to carry it into operation shall have
been passed both by tho congress of tho
United States of America aud by tho govern
ment of the United Mexican States"
The amendment was concession to these
senators who entertained doubt regarding
the constitutional right Of the senate and the
executive to make treaty affecting the row.
enues without the concurrent action of the
house of representatives.
The opinion was entertained by some sena-
tors that the original toxt left it optional
with tho executive to determine whether any
claws and regulations" were necessary to
carry the treaty into effect, and tho amend
ment was framed to place the matter beyond
doubt in the minds of congressional Is, to
give recognition to the rights of the house
of repre- entatives
Tho probable action of the house may be
inferred from its action under similar cir
cumstauces upon the Hawaiian treaty.
The law then passed originated in the
house, and authorized the President whenever
he should receive satisfactory evidence that
the legislature of the Hawaiian islands had
passed laws to give full effect to the treaty,
to issue his proclamation declaring that he
had such evidence, whereupon from the date
of such proclamation the following articles"
(enumGratng those named in the treaty.
should be admitted free of duty. While the
house has the power by non-action to defeat
the treaty, no doubt is entertained that tho
necessary legislation will be enacted to give
effect to the treaty during the present season.
such action requiring, Of course, only q
majority.

The Lnsker Resolution,

The house committee on foreign affairs
yesterday considered the action of Prince
Bismarck upon the Lasker resolution.
Mr.. Phelps proposed that report should
no submitted to the house declaring, in Of.
feet, that the wise course of the secretary OF
state relieved the house from the necessity of
any further action.
Mr. Eaton said that the act of Bismarck
was an insult, and, as such, should be re
sented in terms which would leave no doubt
of its emphatic dsapproyal.
A variety of views informed late between
those of Mr. Phelps and Mr.. Eaton, who rep.
resented tho extremes, wore expressed by
other mombors of the committee. Suggos-
tions were made that words condemning tho
act of the German chancellor should be ac-
companied By expressions of regard for the
German nation.
MIR, Rice said that while no believed the
state department had lett tho matter in the
hest possible position, yot rs tho insult had
been directed to the house of representatives
that body should express, in dignited terms,
its resentm mt. The matter, he thought,
ought not to bo loft entirely with the depart
ment of state.
The further consideration of tho subject
was referred to subcommittee consisting of
Messrs Curtin, Eaton, Phelps, and Rice.
