SIR Julian PauncefOte's suggestions
Accepted by VI. De Stnal.

LONDON, May 27.-The correspondent of
the Daily Telegraph at The Hague says:
Peace prospects touched a hgh-water
mark to-day when the conference found it
self face to face with arbitration i'm a prac-
ticable and acceptable form and as a per-
manent international achievement This
honor is mainly due to Sir Julian Paunce-
fote When the members of the arbitration
section had finished reading the Russian
proposals on this subject Sir Julian ex-
pressed his complete approval of them, but
said IL would be great pity IL the confer
ence failed TO embody the principle of ar
bitration in some permanent shape. i now
beg TO propose, he said, the formal estab-
lishment OF permanent arbitration tribu-
nal, empowered to deal with all matters in
dispute capable of reference to the juds
ment of an umpire. l do not intend to
trouble you with details as TO its mechan-
ism to-day, nor until you accept the prin-
ciple of my proposal. Therefore. ask you
to accept the principle now

the foundation of a permanent tribunal,
suggesting the substitution of a new clause
and referring to an appendix not yet drawn
up. The amazed delegates crowded around
Sir Julian. congratulating him upon having
played the winning card, which had so
quickly precipitated the Russian alterna-

matter was not contemplated in their in

as the troops, led by General Roget were
returning from the cemetery of Pere la
Chase to the barracks at Neully-Sur-S Seine,
Paul Deroulede, chief of the League of Pa
triots. and violent opponent of Dreyfus re-
vision. called upon General Roget to march
his troops on the Elysee Palace The re-
quest was ignored. NJ. Deroulede, who was
then joined by NJ Marcel Habert. member
of the Chamber of Deputies for Rambouillet,
another violent anti-revisionist, headed a
band of men and entered the courtyard of
the barracks with the brigade. Deroulede
and Marcel Habert boldly proclaimed that
they wished to lead the army into a revo-
lutionary movement and TO replace the par
liamentary republic by plebiscitary re-
public. They refused to quit the barracks
and were placed under arrest. On the fol-
lowing day the facts were reported to the
Chamber of Deputies. which promptly au-
thorized the public prosecutor to take pro-
ceedings against them on the charge of at
tempting to turn the troops from their duty.
The public hearing OF the demand for
Dreyfus revision is expected to open on
Monday next. The speeches will probably
occupy four days and the decision be given
on June or June g.

CRIsPI CREATES AN UPROAR.
Attempts to Explain the ROut of Ital-
ianA mt ErYthrea.

ROME, May 2e.-Former Premier Crispi,
in the Chamber of Deputies to-day, asked
permission to explain the circumstances
leading to the Italian rout in Erythrea. His
remarks led to an immense uproar, during
which anathemas were hurled indiscrim-
inately and the din became so great the
session was suspended. After its resumr-
ton there was a repetition of the scenes
before witnessed. Sgnor Ferry, Socialist,
accused General Barrattieri who commanded
the Italian forces in Erythrea. of fleeing and
leaving his troops in the lurch. Ferry re-
fused to withdraw his accusation and, in
the midst of indescribable uproar the house
adjourned
The rout in Erythrea refers to the defeat
of the Italian army commanded by General
Barratieri at Adowa. the Italian East
African colony, In March, 1896. The exact
number or men killed and made prisoners
on that occasion has not been made public,
but the Italian War Office officials, during
the exciting scores which followed Italy's
reverse in the Chamber OF Deputies ad-
mtted that about 1900 native Italian troops
were engaged. in addition to some 1000 aux
iiaries and that about 80 officers and 5000
men were killed by the forces of Menelk
of Abyssinia. In addition, it is known that
oners. Some reports at that time had 1T
that the Italians lost about 10000 men in
killed and wounded. in addition to losing
five pieces of artillery and their ammuni-
ton and wagon trains. General Bar
rattieri, who commanded the Italian troops
at Adowa, former governor of Erythrea,
was tried by court-martial and acquitted of
having attacked the Abyssinians from mex
cusable motives, under circumstances rem
dering defeat inevitable and of having aban-
dcned the chief command Of the troops from
1880, on March l. until o'clock on March
8, thereby failing to give the orders required
for lessening the consequences of the defeat
Signor Crispi was premier at the time of
the disaster to the Italian arms and great
deal of odium fell upon him. His resigna-
ton was accepted on March "a. 1898. after
committee of the Chamber of Deputies had
reported recommending political censure"
for his connection with the Bank Of Naples
scandals during his premiership.

chief address to a graduating class to-day.
Mrs. Bryan spoke on The American
Woman" She said. among other things:
''The public finds the American woman
an Interesting subject. This interest follows
from the unique position I'm which American
women stand to-day. The American woman
should be sufficiently Independent 70 study
her own surroundings, choose her own
course and live the life which Is best for
herself and those nearest her. without re-
gard TO the opinions of the outer world.
While we hear great deal these days
about equality, the real permanent advance
ment of woman depends on her own individ-
ual development. When man finds in woman
thorough appreciation of his work and
aims, when the mind of woman becomes
the perfect supplement and complement of
the mind of man which the Creator intended
II to be, then will all the discussions as to
the right and privileges cease. Woman has
long been a recognized power In the spiritual
world and when one looks into a church in
any part of our land and sees how much
of the work is done by women. 1t seems
almost superfiuous TO say that the ideal OF
American womarihood Is attained under a
threefold development of the physical, the
mental and the spiritual

Finns Trying to Maintnin Right..

HELSINGFORS, Finland, May 26.-The
Finnish Diet, after a protracted delibera-
tion over the new military law, is discussing
a counter measure by which some of the
Russian institutions will be accepted, but
the principle of the rights of Finland will
be strictly safeguarded. The closing of the
Diet is now imminent and will accentuate
the differences between the Russians and
Firms. The Finnish press declarations are
being circulated among the rural communit
les asking them to make common cause with
the Poles against Russian barbarsm, and
declaring that the acceptance of Russian
rule will result in a division of the land
among the people. The press adds that this
agitation is inspired by malevolence and
with the object OF involving the Finns in
difficulties with the Russian government.
