IMPORTANT WORK IN PEACE CONFERENCE Drafting Committee Considers
 Arbitration. RUSSIAN PROJECT SECRET Great Powers Think it Impossible to Go Beyond Sir Julian Pauncefote's
 Proposals-American Plan
 is Not Abandoned
RUSSIAN PROJECT SECRET

The Hague, June 9.-The peace confer once entered today upon it's most import ant stage when the drafting committee of the third section took up arbitration.
 According to a foreign delegate, the American scheme does not seem to have obtained the support of many of the dele gates. The Americans, it is added, have realized this, and have virtually abandoned the idea of pressing it's adoption, and, therefore, it may be considered virtually abandoned, or, at most, it will only furnish material for few amendments which will be submitted during the debate.
 The Russian project is still kept abso- lutely secret M. de Staal, head of the Russian delegation and president of the conference, has voluntarily withdrawn all claim to priority in favor of the British scheme.
 Part of the Russian scheme will be pressed and the other part will be incor- porated with their proposals in a definite shape.
 The proposals of Sir Julian Pauncefote, head of the British delgation, have the advantage of not tanglng the powers with expenses of a permanent sitting tri- bunal. as If the others include, and. with ...l.### certainly agree able to all

cause the gold standard advocates to be- come indifferent toward elections
 But this will hardly be considered. The men interested in the plan say that to make secure the gold standard was the chief reason for the action of the com mittee coming together. They wish to commit the country to the gold standard so that even should MT. Bryan be elected or any other free silver man he could not change the money values without an act of congress.
 : As one member of the committee put it yesterday in discussing the matter: we have the gold standard now but the secre- tary of the treasury could overrun the en- tire system if so disposed What we want to do is to entrench the gold standard by law thus setting aside all doubts and fears. l believe that such positive action will draw every gold man to the support or the party who has had the nerve to open are square on the issue. They say what they would do. We can not afford to be lees so. There is use our trying to hedge on this question. The people know where the party stands and no evasion win serve any good to the party and only hurt the credit of the country" The Duke and the Duchesse D'Arcos are being most elaborately entertained. Not only have they been dined by state oftl- cials, but by as many of the duchess old fr1endS who can secure dn eNellAh6 from the Spanish representatives The duchess is connected through the Wood buries with the New England contingent here, and through the Blairs with the Maryland and Virginia families of that name When the secretary of state asked permission to give a dinner to the newly appointed diplomat and his spouse the duchess with a great deal of tact asked that her old friends be invited to meet her.
 There was great surprise in consequence when the list of guests was printed and 1t was seen how few of the high officials were present, and the multi-millionaires con- sidered themselves slighted, that crowd who make it appear that they have corner on the diplomats in Washington.
 Instead of the new and the rich there were some good old Georgetown names, women who have been friends with the duchess since she was little girl, but who seldom figure now at state dinners This is a little thing, but shows some part of the character of the Spanish-American duchess. As Miss Lowery she was most exclusive socially, sticking always to her old friends whether they were poor or not. She has-the money and the title to com mand the rich but only her mate refine ment can hold the affections of such peo- pie as the Janins and the Blairs.

calls for an arbitration tribunal as cabled to the Associated Press June ', and pro- poses that the conference appoint five powers, which, when a request for arbi- tration is made, will each name judge, who will form the tribunal
 The drafting committee was in session for three hours, although not single con- clusion was reached with the exception of the acceptance of the British scheme as the basis upon which to discuss the estab- lishment of a tribunal of arbitI ation. After the session most of the members of the committee telegraphed to their respective governments indicating that the discussion showed the necessity of having their in structions amplfed. It is understood that several of the delegates of the smaller powers expressed wish that the perman- ency of the tribunal might be made more exclusive and even moved amendments in this sense.
 The great powers, however, think it is possible, it is said to go beyond Sir Julian Pauncefotes proposals. Neverthe- less a determined effort is being made to secure the institution of a permanent tri- bunal. The American and Russian pro- iects have not been abandoned. Sir Julian Pauncefote's will merely be taken as the basis of discussion and the American dele- gates assure the correspondent of the As- sociated Press that the chief points in the American-Russian proposals will be in- corporated in the amendments.

MILES MAY GO TO MANILA
Understood He Will Divide With Gen
 Otis

Washington, June 9.-(Spectal.)-I is un- derstood here that General Miles is to be sent to the Philippines during the summer. Whether he goes at his own request or not is a question. It Is believed that General Corbin would like to see Miles assigned to this far distant post and Secretary Alger will not place objections in the way. Miles may gather glory by going to the Philippines and rounding up the campaign successfully General Otis Is not to be re- called, but the war department thinks he has too much responsibility now and that better results could be obtained if his duties were divided.
