oNE-sIDED ARBITRATION.
Scheme That European Nations
Would Like INCL Sam to Indorse.

Ucneme In0t EUrODc0n ? Nations
Would Like Uncle Sam to Indorse.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 10.-The recent visit
to Washington of Mr.. Cremer, the British
member of Parliament, WHO was charged
with the presentation to our government
Of a memorial. signed by about $50 Of his
colleagues IN Parliament, urging the se-
COLLATION. of an arbitration treaty with
Great Britain, has resulted in stimulating
interest in that project, which had rather
Jagged since the Introduction of the Allison
resolution some years ago, In Congress
the proposition has taken tangible shape
In a radical joint resolution, submitted by
Senator Sherman and referred to the COM
mittee on foreign relations, fully author
izing the President to move in the mat
ter. While this resolution has not been
entirely acceptable to the advocates of the
scheme 1t has served its purpose of form
ing the basis of consideration by the COM
mittee. But, meanwhile, negotiations have
been opened, as yet only preliminary in
nature, between our government and the
British ambassador, that VIA, it is said,
IF they result in the contamination of a
treaty, be fraught With the gravest con-
sequences so far as the United States is
concerned. In its present shap pc the PROPOSE
tlon Is extremely broad. though it may
be narrowed as the negotiations progress,
for 1t contemplates nothing less than a
great general treaty, to which the United
States and all of the great European pow
ers shall be parties. by the terms of which
any matter in dispute between any of
the signatory powers. which cannot be ad-
tusted by the ordinary methods of d.
plonacy. shall be submitted to arbitration.
There is notning substantially new in
this proposition, which has been discussed
for many years in various shapes, but the
fact that negotiations have actually begun
has had the effect to draw the attention
OF certain Senator's who must pass on any
such treaty. to the grave consequences that
might be expected to follow its ratification.
For instance, 1t has been urged that the
Monroe doctrine. on which our predomi-
nance In this hemisphere depends, would be
speedily dismissed as of no force in an
arbitration. Each of the signatory powers
would be represented on the arbitration
commission and, as the European powers
would be largely In the majority. there
could be but one result should any ques-
ton be submitted involving the application
of this doctrine TO which they have never
subscribed and have tolerated only because
OF the ability of the United States to MAIN
tain II against any single power.
Another objection that has been advanced
Is that the arbitration treaty would alb
solutely deny the right of revolution and
this might be a very serious matter to the
United States. In the event that Canada
should cast off allegiance to Great Britain

1t would probably be impossible for this
less annex the Dominion, even On the
unanimous application of Its people. OF late
years the major part of our negotiations
with European powers has been made up
of the settlement of difficulties growing out
or our inSistence on the recognition OF the
citizenship OF naturalized Americans. On
this issue the United States is at variance
with almost all of the European countries.
which have found it essential to the main
tenance of their great systems of enforced
military service to deny the right Of ex-
patriation to their subjects; and il such
a question were submitted to. arbitration,
the United States would be certainly de-
feated in its contention, and there would
be no safety for our naturalized citizens
anywhere outside of the United States.
These are a few of the difficulties that at
present beset the pathway OF negotiations
leading to a general arbitration treaty and
it is doubtful if they can be ever over
come.

WILL BE NO GOLD BONDS.
Leaders of the House Do Not Think
a. Bill Can BE Passed.


WASHINGTON, Feb. 10.-To-morrow the
House enters on the last three weeks OF
the session. Although the Presidents spe-
cial message relative to the bond issue,
sent to Congress on Friday, is being con-
sidered by the ways and means committee,
there Is no present expectation that any
effort viii be made to pass the bill author
izing god bonds during the coming week.
The majority of the Republicans are against
1t, and without their aid the Democratic
leaders believe it is a useless waste of
time to consider such a measure in the
House. The week will be devoted to rou-
tine business.
The greater part of the week in the SEN
ate will necessarily be devoted to the ap-
preparation bills. The postofice bill will be
the first remaining Enacted upon to receive
the attention OF the Senate. The bill will,
ir ali probability, develop sufficient debate
t. consume W. days time, If not more.
There will probably be spasmodic efforts
during the week to get up other than ap-
preparation bills. Senator Butter has given
notice of an intention to move to take up
the pooling bill after the postoffice bill shall
be disposed of. Senator Allen Is also anx-
ious to call up his resolution for the inves-
tigation of the Alabama elections. Should
the bankruptcy bill not be displaced by
the pooling bill the chances for it's further
consideration are very slight. Senator
George, it's especial champion. says that he
fight against 1T is so bitter and persistent
as to render the prospect doubtful. The
possibilities include more or less reference
to the financial and Hawaiian questions.

the Secretary of Agriculture has issued to
Managers and superintendent of railroads

States, stock men and others the usual
regulations concerning cattle transporter
ton, to be in force from Feb. ID inst. to
Dec. 1 next. The principal difference be-
tween the regulations and those of last
year lies in the fact that the Texas fever

isfactorily that he was reelected his own
successor three times. and it was while
serving his fourth term that he was
chosen cashier of the First National
Bank of Houghton, which position he
occupied at the time Of his sudden re-
moval.

Today's developments demonstrate
conclusively that negligent care OF the
boilers was the cause of the accident.
Official inspectors and competent en-
gineers examined portion of the
wrecked boilers today and pronounced
the cause as low water, causing super
heated condition of the flues, which was
followed by dangerous injections OF cold
water. Engineer Thompson's careless
ness is strongly condemned.
The portion Of the building standing

to be out Of plum, wreached by the
