At the present time two facts appear to be
indicated by the progress of affairs before the
Bebing Sea Tribunal of Arbitration in Paris.
One is that the trial will probably last for two
months more, much longer time than was ex-
pected or than financial provision was made for
by our Government. The compensation Of our
representatives, fixed for much shorter period
will therefore be inadequate. The other inter
esting fact is that the American case bids fair
to prove much stronger than il was COMMONLY
