ALLEGED INSTRUCTIONS FROM THE CAR
TO NJ DE STAAL
London, May 22-"The Morning Post" pub
fishes the following dispatch from its CORE
spondent at The Hague:
M de Staal Chead Of the Russian delegation
and president of the Conference received final
instructions from Emperor Nicholas to deal with
the question of realizing compulsory arbitra-
ton. whether by supreme tribunal Of several
great Powers. or by private tribunal, consisting
Of the Powers whose interests might be at stake
with the subsequent friendly mediation By some
third Power"
The Daily News" publishes dispatch from
The Hague. supposed to pc inspired by William
T. Stead. Editor Of The Review Of Reviews.
which is in part as follows:
Regarding arbitration the present position OF
the delegates seems TO be this: Germany and
the other two Powers Of the Triple Alliance are
entirely against IT, and Turkey follows in their
wake. Great Britain and the United States are
entirely in favor Of il. Professor Won STENCIL.
Of the German delegation, said to-day: Arbitra-
ton Is impractcable when two nations are d.
vided by vital issue. while in less important
questions It exists already
France is hesitating and will probably agree
with Russia Several delegates confess that
they came TO the Conference unprepared and
have already learned much"

The Tribune on Friday published interviews with
thirty-fve Republican members Of the LVIth Con-

B Henderson. Of Iowa; A J. Hopkins. OF Illinois;
James S. Sherman Of New-York; Serene E. Payne
Of New-York; John Dalzeu. Of Pennsylvania. and
W H. Moody. Of Massachusetts,. The expressions
Of personal preferences did not give much indica-
ton as TO the outcome. but II was noticed that
Mr. Sherman, Of New-York was the only candidate
championed by Congressman outside his own State
Five other Representatives. are quoted to-day,
one Of them, D. T. Flynn, OF Oklahoma speaking
In favor of Mr. Sherman. and two Illinois men
champoning Mr.. Hopkins.

FOR SPEAKER

FOR SPEAKER
Notwithstanding all that has been said about
Speaker Reeds alleged determination to leave that
position in the field OF active politics which he has
SO long held. and settle down 10 the practice OF the
law In this city. there is still who doubts
the whole story. That man is George W. Ray who
represents the XXVIth District OF this State In
Congress. He said yesterday that the only thing
which had held him back so far from announcing
his candidacy for the Speakership the fact
that. after dilgent investigation. he had not been
able TO get any direct confirmation OF the report
that Mr.. Reed out OF the running and does
not intend to accept the Speakership again
Mr. Ray says that he Is satisfied that
Mr.. Reed has decided TO retire, he Will announce
his own candidacy. There is some ground for sup
posing that Mr. Ray would have Senator Platts
support.
