putes TO be Advocated.
NEW YORK, March GA special
from Washington says:
There is reason TO believe that an Inn
portnnt proposition looking to the set
Element OF international disputes by ar
bitration will be advanced ut the COM
Ing disarmament conference by the DEL
eGates.
It Is learned on high authority that
the credentials for and Instructions to
the American delegates are now being
prepared by Secretary Hay and will be
ready for submission to the President
for his approval when he returns to
Washington from his southern trip.
These Instructions will be complete ex-
position OF the attitude OF this govern
ment on the question OF disarmament
and arbitration.
Following the policy which 1t seems
likely that all the nations will adopt.
President Mckinley will accredit the
minister to the Netherlands as one OF
the American delegates. Ambassadors
White and Tower will probably be the
other two members Of the American
delegation.
The administration is strongly in
favor Of arbitration as the means for
the settlement OF disputes between ma
lions, and while 1t appreciates that
there are number of controversies
that can only be settled by war, 1t Is
still believed that many questions which
arise and are causes Of much friction
can be arbitrated.
