THE CzAR's HOPES BLIGHTED

THE CZAR'S HOPES BLIGHTED.
A despatch to the London Daily
News from The Hague says that Ger
many now accepts permanent tribu-
nal of arbitration as outlined in the
British and American plans. Her &C.
cep'auce is not yet official, but the Ger
man delegates privately informed their
colleagues Monday afternoon that they
had rec, ived its ructions to that effec' +.
On the other hand, the German dele
gates, speaking at the Conference with
authority, smashed up the Russian
scheme of disarmament.
Col Won Gross Won Schwarzhoff, ii g
military expert, spoke for an hour on
the subject with overpowering frank
ness. He contended that reduction
of peace forces in no wise implied re-.
duction OF offensive power. The ques-
tions of the length OF military service,
the Developments of railways, the
rapidity of mobilization and eco
nomicai conditions were all factors in
the military strength of country, and
to take one term only of the problem
and argue that the reducing OF forces
all around would leave the various
countries on the same relative footing
toward one another as before, how
ever possible it might appear TO an out
slider, was, to a military expert, so man
ifest an absurdity that he wondered it
had been put forward presumably in
earnest.
Colonel Won Schwarzhoff's speech
caused the greatest sensation that the
conference has yet had. Many OF the
delegates, when interviewed, unani
mously declared that it was a smash
ing blow to the Russian arguments.
Nobody expected such brusque and
unconditional rejection of the Czar's
proposals.
The select committee of the peace
conference was engaged all day yester-
day with its examination of an arbitra-
ton code. under the presidency of M.
Bourgeois, of the French delegation,
who returned last night from Paris.
whittier he was summoned by the Presi
dent Loubet in connection with the
ministerial crisis. The opinion prevails
that the Russian proposals for the limi.
tation of arbitrs ton, even if they were
better prepared and contained satisfac
tory measures fer the control of the ar
bitrators, will be rejected by large
majority.
Nothing seems to have been decided
regarding the competence of the confer
ence to examine the American propos
ais concerning the capture of private
property at sea during naval warfare.
The ceremonies at Delft, whittier the
American delegates will proceed oD
July to lay silver wreath on the
tomb of the Dutch philosopher, Hugo
Grotius, the Father OF International
Law" will begin at II o'clock this
morning Afers the speeches are de-
livered there will be singing by
chorus under the direction of Arnold
Spool, the famous baritone OF The
Hague. -,
Queen Wilhelmins will give dinner
to the delegates at the palace at The
Hague on July 6. This is regarded as
an indication that the conference Will
end about that time.
