The Limits Of Arbitration.

With international arbitration we
confess to having comparatively little
sympathy. If nations mean to fight,
nothing will prevent their 80 doing, and
agreements to arbitrate will be Of very
little service. The suggestion Of an
agreement between England and the
United States to establish permanent
machinery for regulating their disputes
is, however, quite different. Nations in
whom the same racial characteristics
are to be found, who are Influenced by
the same ideas, who talk the same Ian
guage, read the same books and possess
the same political traditions, are capable
of making an agreement to settle dis.
putes by arbitration reality.
Again, an agreement not to fight till
the question in dispute has been referred
to body exercising the functions Of a
court Of law is step in the direction of
that alliance between the United States
and England which, we trust and be-
ieve, is the destiny of the two countries.
If we begin by an acknowledgment that
we are not in the position Of foreign
powers-i. g., liable to war at any mo:
ment-we may soon rise to definite
race alliance, and lastly to that DECLARE
ton of q common citizenship which would
prevent any Englishman from being an
alien in America or any American being
an alien in England and would heal the
breach in the unity of the race caused by
the folly Of George III and his ministers.

WALLER THE FAvoRITE.
Nows OF the Big Six Day Bicycle Race at
Madison square Carbon.

NEw YORK, Dec. Eff Frank Waller,
the Brooklyn representative in the six day
bicycle race In Madison Square Garden,
does not meet with an accident during the
remainder OF the week, he will have good
chance to carry Off the big end Of the prize
money. Several days before therace started
Waller was chosen as the dark horse by the
knowing ones, and his performances have
far exceeded the expectations of his most
intimate friends. He says that he is in
splendid condition, and his looks bear him
out.
He rides with less exertion than any man
on the track, and when he starts squirting
there is only one rider who has the cour-
age to race with him, and that is little Van
Emberg, who has been christened the boy
wonder. He dogs Waller continually,
though the latter really enjoys the pluck
with which the little fellow hangs on.
Van Emberg is nowhere near Waller in
the race, but he follows the Brooklyn man
as II only few yards separated them.
Van Emberg has been without a trainer
all week, and this Is one reason why he Is
so far behind He spoiled whatever chance
he had Of winning by trying for the 100
mile record on the first day. He succeeded
in his attempt, but his constitution was
unable TO stand the strain.

The Senate Hawaiian investigator.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.-Considerable in
terest attaches to the Hawaiian investiga-
tion which was begun today under the aus
pices Of the senate committee on foreign
relations. No one seems to understand
just what is proposed TO be done by the
committee, how extensive the hearings to
be given will be, just who is to be heard
or how long the hearings will be continued.
The work will be in the hands of a sub
committee Of the committee on foreign re-
lations, consisting of Senators Morgan,
Butler and Gray, Democrats, and Senator'S
Sherman and Frye, Republicans. It is to
be undertaken under the resolution of SEN
ator Morgan. 1t is presumed that the in
yestigation will take the shape of an in
quiry into the conduct of Minister Stevens
at the time OF the revolution and Of Com
missioner Blount, with the possibility of
going into the question Of the recognition
of the provisional government, and also on
investigation as TO the regularity Of the
Blount appointment.

A STRIKE INJUNCTION.
Northern raoific Employees Restrained by
an Order of the Court.

MILWAUKEE, Dec. 27.--A conflict Is on
between the receivers Of the Northern Pa
cidc railroad and its employees. The new
schedule of wages adopted by the receiv-
ers, which implies q cut Of TO 10 per cent
in the employees pay, was rejected by the
employees representatives at q conference
held in st. Paul with GeneraA Manager
Kendrick, and the prospects are that on
Jan. 1, when the new schedule is to so into
effect, $500 men employed by the road will
quit work.
This outcome Of the controversy was
foreseen by the receivers, for as early as
Dec. 20 they applied for and obtained from
Judge Jenkins of the United States court
of this city an order authorizing and
directing them to put into operation the
new schedule of wages, and restraining the
employees and their unions from "combin-
ing and oonspiring to quit with or without
notice the service Of the road, with the OBJ
ject of crippllng or embarrassing its op.
GRAFTON, and generally from interfering
with the officers and agents of the receiv.
ers or their employees IN any manner by
actual violence, intimidation, threats on
otherwise"
This injunction was held back until Tues
day, the receivers having expected to ar
rive at an amicable agreement. The order
Of the court restraining the Northern Pa
cifc employees from combining and con
spring to quit the service Of the road is an
extraordinary document. 1t is the first or
der of it's kind, it is said, ever issued in tn,
United States. A somewhat similar in
junction was issued by a United States
court in Michigan during the strike of the
Toledo and Ann Arbor employees, but that
