APPROVED BY GIBBONS
THE ANGLO-AMERICAN TREATY DIS
CUSSED BY THE CARDINAL.
Like other Eminent Catholic PreIates,
He Is In Favor of Arbitration
Views of General Tracy.

BALTIMORE. Nd. Jan. H.--Cardinal
Gibbons, i'm an interview, to-day expressed
in unqualified terms his approval of the
arbitration treaty between England and the
United States. His Eminence has on every
suitable occasion advocated the settlement
OF international disputes by this method
because, in his opinion, 1t reduces to min
mum the dread alternative of war The
fact that the two great Englsh-speaking
nations of the earth have taken a step in
the direction of permanent class of arbitra-
tion." said his Eminence. "gratifies me be-
yond measure and should afford to all low
ers of peace the keenest satisfaction. It's
Importance and its significance cannot be
overestmated. My own position with ref
erence to arbitration between the nations
is fully set forth i'm an appeal in which
joined Cardinals Logue. of Ireland, and
Vaughan, of England. and which was is
sued on Easter Sunday of last year." The
appeal to which his Eminence refers is in
part as follows:
1--WE. the undersigned cardinals, repre-
sentatives of the Prince of Peace and of
the Catholic Church in our respective coun-
tries. invite all who hear our voice TO CO.
operate in the formation of a public opin-
ion which shall demand the establishment
OF n permanent tribunal OF ar
DltFatlOn as a natlOndl substitute among
the English-speaking races for res~ TO
the bloody arbltrament of war. We ar ell
aware that such project is beset sith
practical difficulties. We believe that they
will not prove to be insuperable If the de-
sire to overcome them be genuine ard gem
eral. Such a court existed for centuries
when the nations of Christendom were
united in one faith. And have We not seen
nations appeal to that same court for its
Judgment in our own day?
THE establishment of a permanent tri-
bunal. composed, maybe, of trusted repre-
sentatives of each sovereign nation, with
power TO nominate judges and umpires. ac-
cording to the nature of the differences
that arise and a common acceptance of
general principles defining and limiting the
jurisdiction and subject matter of such a
tribunal, would create new guarantees for
peace that could not fail TO influence the
whole of Christendom. Such an interna-
tional court of arbitration would form a
second line g Defense to be called into
requisition only after the ordinary re-
sources of diplomacy had been exhausted.
1t would at least postpone the outbreak
of hostilities until reason and common
sense had formally pronounced their last
word. This is ~ matter of which the con-
stitution and procedure must be settled by
governments. But as governments are be-
coming more and more Identified with the
aspirations and nodded by the desires of
the people. an appeal in the first instance
must be addressed to the people,"

dered and Robbed In Chicago.

CHICAGO, Jan. Ia. - Millionaire mine
owner George S. Hammond, of the San

missing. and it is feared he has been foully
dealt with. Hammond left Albuquerque, N

several thousand dollars with him and a
quantity of valuable jewelry. Detectives
have learned that the ticket purchased by

detectives that Mr.. Hammond fell into the
hands of strangers and was robbed, or
perhaps murdered, for his money. Mrs
Hammond and her daughter will arrive in
Chicago Saturday to aid in the search.
