THE ARBITRATION TREATY.
No More War Talk Between The
United States and England.


WASHINGTON, Jan. IL The propo-
sition for q general arbitration treaty
between the United States and Great
Britain lie NOW an accomplished fact.
Lord Salisbury has assented TO the last
suggestion from this side and nothing
formal signatures Of the secretary and
sir Julian Pauncetote, the latter hav-
ing been clothed with authority by
Lard Salisbury, These Rignatures will
be affixed today.
The treaty must be submitted to the
United States Senate for approval, and
IN view OF the short time remaining of
the present session OF Congress, every
effort will be- made TO havs II submit
ted to that body at the earliest possible
mu ent, probably within IA day or
two. Ample provision has been made
to guard ngsinst the failure Of the
arbitrators to agree through a tie
vote. A provision has been
made in such case for reference OF
the matter to the deciding authority.
Secretary Olney's insatence sOcut the
absolute necessity OF guarding against
tic vote caused delay Ia the final
draft OF the treaty after the details had
been adjusted.
1t is learned that King Oscar OF
Sweden win be the finai arbitrator iu
case OF tie vote by the arbitration
tribunal in any matter. He either
will hear the matter In dispute himself
or will name q deputy who will act rs
final arbitrator. The treaty Is to run
for five years, and the Swedish king
during that time will bs final umpire
in all disputes between the great Eng
iish speaking nations.
The general arbitration treaty was
signed by Sir Julian Psunceiote and
Secretsry Olney today. Ii 1t be posi-.
BILE to transcribe the treaty in time land

will be sent to the Senate tomorrow.
The Alaskan boundary Will not, as
expected, come before tho general
arbitration tribunal. No specific refer
eucs is made TO the subject in the
treaty, but 1t is stated this matter will
be settled separately. BY thus remov.
ing the Alaskan controversy Secretary
Olney had disarmed the formidable
opposition that was developed among
the senators from the north west anu
improved the prospects OF Ratification
OF the convention by the Senate.

The next contumacious witness i'm
plicated In the Sugar Trust investiga-
tion to be tried viii be Mr. John s.
shriver, of the New York Mail and Ex-
press, whose trial has been set by Judge
Bradley for Monday next. The witnesses
summoned are mainly those who testified
at the trials OF the sugar kings, though the
cases of shriver and Edwards, the news
paper men, are of an entirely different
nature. They were asked certain Ques-
tions and they refused point blank to
answer them for the reason that it would
impeach their Integrity as correspondents
and degrade them in the eyes OF their
informants.
1t VIII be remembered that the articles
published in the Mail and Express and the
Philadelphia Press gave rise to the reso-
luton Of Senator Quay, creating the Sugar
Trust investigation, and that the testi
mony of Messrs. Shriyer and Edwards
was one of the most necessary elements
needed for a successful conclusion by the
committee. The accounts published Mt
the time, in May, 1894, were to the ef-
feet that a conference held between
Messrs. Havemeyer and Terrell and ccr-
tain Democratic Senators having the Will
son bill in charge regarding the proposed
sugar schedule, was overheard by a GER
tain wire manufacturer. The gentleman
in question occupied an adjoining room

1894, and Justice Cox overruled their de-
murrer in September. In January, 1885,
