PEACE CONFERENCE.

Nfakes Some Advance.

Disarmament Committee Fails to
Agree : Arbitration Committee
Makes Some Advance.
THE HAGUE, May S1.-Both sec
tlons Of the disarmament committee
met to-day, and. as was anticipated,
failed to agree with regard to the ques-
tions OF new inventions in armaments.
The drafting committee of the arbi-
trat!on committee made some advance
this afternoon. The American dele
gates submitted their scheme relating
TO an arbitration tribunal. The plan
differs from the British proposal. 1t
provides that each country shall ap-
poit single arbitrator, to be selected
by the supreme courts OF the sigma
tory powers. The tribunal shall have
4 permanent central seat and be COM
posed OF at least three Judges, who
shall not be natives or residents OF
countries belonging to the powers In
accord.
The general expenses shall be shared
proportionately. In the event Of new
facts arising within three months Of
decision, the same tribunal shall!
have power to try again the questions
In dispute. Recourse to the tribunal
shall be optional for the signatory
powers. The tribunal shall not take
cognizancc OF any dispute until as
sured that the parties concerned will
accept Its decision.
The convention shall come into force
and the tribunal be established when
nine powers. eight of whom shall be
European or American and four of
whom shall be signatories of the dec
laration OF Paris, 1856, shall have ud-
nerel to the convention.
Apart from the above project, the
Americans proposed 4 special scheme
OF mediation. providing that in tho
event of q difference arising between
two powers. each shall choose another
power TO act rs Its second. The pow
ers thus selected shall do all they can
to reconcile the opponents. These Sec
ondlrg powers shall. even when war
has broken out. continue their efforts

Session of Warm Discussion.
PHILADELPHIA, May 81. = The
Forty-flrst general assembly Of the uni.
ted Presbyterian church adjourned to-
nigh: to meet In Chicago next year. The
last days proceedings were full of dis
cusslon. at times heated, and the posi-
tlon of the church on number Of SUBJ
.jects Of vital interest was taken. A
resolution was adopted commencing
the policy of employing colored teachers
and In organizing colored congregations
in the South. and recommending that
the territory be placed under the drec-
tion of the synod of New York. This
brought forth the first discussion, and
resulted in tho adoption OF the report OF
tho board OF Freedmcn's Mission, con-
tanning the recommendation. At the
afternoon session the subject OF tenn
pcrance and the army caHteen occupied
the attention of the assembly.
The committee on reform submitted
a resolution which was adopted after n
heated debate designating November 4
rs n Sunday upon which ministers
throughout the church should preach
on temperance.
A memorial presented by Judge ]. NJ.
McCulloush, OF Iowa, to President Nc
kinley. opposing the canteen, was
adopted after vigorous discussion.
The memorial caused more heated de-
bate thnn any other question before the
assembly. The Rev. J. G. Carson de-
clnrcd It ridiculous for an assembly to
pit Its knowledge Of tcchnicnlitics
against that Of the attorney general.
The Rev. ]. II. Barker replied vigorous
ly. declaring that the government was
In league with the liquor power. The

along the shore. on the south, opposite
the insurgent lines. The boat became
becalmed near the shore and some ma

put out and captured the two men, who
were unGrrled. and also took possession
OF the boat The United States monl-
tor, Monadnock. quickly sent a boat
with landing party ashore, under COW

brIskly.
The natives, however. rushed the

Monadnock's boat reached land. Per-
sons on board several ships saw the
affair through glasses, but were un-
able to prevent the capture OF Messrs

Friendly natives arriving here from
the country around San Sldri and San
Manuel. report that reign OF terror
has prevailed since the American
troops were withdrawn from those parts
of the islands The Insurgents who are
returning there deal vengeance upon
those of their countryncn who have
shown any friendship towards the
Americans during the latter's occupa-
tlon of the territory. The trlendlies de-
clare that unoffendirs people are being
murdered daily. and tina, their houses
are burned and their property taken.
Plenty of sympathlZers with the irsur-
rect!on remained during the Americans
stay. and they have been reporting
these instances o: frIendl!ness towards
our troops. --iT
The refugees add that the Inhabitants
were badly oppressed by tho native SOL
diers before the American occupation,
but that the!r condition is worse now.
Doubtless there Is much truth In these
reports, though such sTorIen from Fill
pino sources are always nagnI1ed.
