Drafting Committee Held Impor-
tant Meeting Yesterday.
THE AMERICAN DELEGATES
Oppose Article Declaring that Monetary
Questions Concerning Int r-Oceanic
Canals Should Be Submitted to
the Arbitration Tribunal.

The HagGe, June 3.-The drafting commit
tee of the peace conference today held an
important meeting, at which NJ. De Staal,
head of the Russian delegation; Sir Julian
Pauncefote, chief of the British delega-
ton, and the chief of the Italian delega-
tion were present.
Articles and IL of the Russian proposal
bearing on arbitration were agreed almost
without modification, although the Ameri-
can delegates declared that they could not
admit the provisions of article 10; that
monetary questions concerning interoceanic
canals sould be submitted to an arbitration
tribunal.
The entire committee on mediation will
meet on Monday to review the work ac-
complished by the drafting committee.
The committee will take up on Wednes-
day the question of all of article 10, which
deals with the establishment of an arbi-
tration court-that the American British
and Russian proposals will be well gone
into, and there is every indication of a
universal desire to reach the establishment
of system of permanent arbitration.
The German delegates, whose opposition
was formerly declared, say Germany is as
desirous as the other nations to arrive at
such a conclusion.

FORMALLY PRESENTED
To the Society of State Was Sir Caver-

Washington, June 3-Sir Cavendish
Boyle, government secretary OF British
Guiana was presented to the secretary of
state today by the British charge d'affaires,
Mr.. Tower Sir Cavendish has just arrived
from London, and his special mission is to
assist in negotiating a treaty of reciproc-
ity for British Guina. Commissioner Kas-
son and Mr.. Tower have already made con-
siderable progress in the treaty, and Sir
Cavendish will now bring to the negotia-
tions the benefit of his intimate knowledge
of the commerce of Guina, as well as the
views held by the colonial office on the
matter of trade exchanges.
Mr.. Tower has also received word from
the British foreign Office that commits
sion from Jamaica will be authorized to
come here, and aid in framing reciproc-
ity treaty. This clears up matter which
was involved In considerable debate. Mr..
Tower was presented to the home govern
ment. The Jamaica commission will give
ali the aid which their personal familiarity
with the situation affords.

lutey sienced the redoubt. On March 27
Ensign Davis, at his own request, adj
vanced to the bank of the Marilas river
within rs yards of an insurgent trench on
the opposite side. Here as in the preced-
Ing case, he was under vicious fire, but
again he succeeded in absolutely clearing
the trench and forcing the surrender of
about twenty men who remained alive He
went into action again on the railroad
bridge Garianto under dangerous cross
fire and on March 81 again co-operated in
the artillery attack on Ponta Malolos.
Endorsed by Otis and Macarthur
On April he went forward to the
Quinga river and pushed the automatic
gun forward to a position on the opposite
side close to the enemy's trenches Here
he was temporarily in command of one of
Lieutenant Fleming's guns during the lat
ter's absence, and here, as in other places,
was under a very heavy fire. On finishing
his shore service he was recommended for
promotion by Major Young, with warm
endorsements from General Macarthur and
Major General Otis.
Ensign Davis, in his own report, makes
some pertinent comments on the probable
value of light automatic guns cooperating
with field artillery. He suggests the feasi-
bility of each battery carrying at least one
of these guns on the lir1ber of the larger
pieces, saying that 1T gives to the battery
all the support of a company of infantry
and with the addition of being able to fire
over the heads of advancing troops with
perfect safety, as was done at Guinguinto.
He remarks on the fact that on looking
over one trench Colonel Funston and Ser
geant Smith found one insurgent dead with
five bullet holes through his body in the
space that could be covered by man
hand all of them the work of the deadly
automatic gun. Admiral Dewey, in trans
mitting his report of Ensign Davis expe-
dition, says:
ensign Davis was volunteer for this
duty ashore with the army. He was en-
gagged in all actions against the insurgents
that took place on the northern front OF
the army between February q and April
T. and performed valiant service and rem
dered valuable aid to our troops. there-
fore commend him to the department ana
recommend that he be advanced ten num-
bers in his grade.
"The crew of the Colt gun consisted or
CORPORAL Thomas, of the Prendergast, and
privates Howard NJ. Buckley and Joseph.

men performed their duty under most try

sistant Cortelyou stood upon the left.
D'srcos' Speech
The minister said: "Mr. President, 1 have
the honor to place in your excellency's
hands the repay letter by which her ma
jesty, the queen regent of Spain, in the
name of her august son, King Don Alfonso
XIII, accredits me near this government
In the capacity of envoy extraordinary and
minister plenipotentiary.
Il have come to renew the relations of
friendship which had existed of old be-
tween Spain and the United States, and
year. The treaty of peace which Spain has
signfied put an end to that war, and now,
looking only to the future, Spain desires
that her relations with this republic may
be as friendly as they were in times past
and from the days from which this country
was struggling to gain its independence. 1t
is my task to contribute to the renewal of
these relations, to strengthen them and to
draw them closer; and, In the discharge Of
1t, l hope to be aided by the kindness and
cooperation of your excellency and of
your government"
The president responded as follows:
''Mr. Minister: l receive with the great
est qualification the letter which her maj
esty. the queen regent of Spain, in the
name of her august son, King Alfonso
XIII, has accredited you to this govern
ment as envoy extraordinary and minister
plenipotentiary.
A Cordial Welcome
'You will find, Mr.. Minister, a cordial
welcome in this country not only from
those whose friendship you acquired during
your former residence, but from all our
people, who rejoice as l do at the renewal
of the ancient bonds of amity, which, with
a brief interval of interruption, have united
our nations for more than 100 years. That
these friendly relations may be confirmed
and strengthened to the advantage of both
peoples is my earnest wish, and l can as
sure you that every member of this gov
ernment will heartily cooperate with you
to that desirable end"
1t was noticeable that Due D'Arcos, iii
referring to the qualification with which
Spain resumed friendly relations with the
United States that had existed for over 100
years. plainly said that these relations had
been broken by VIZ. while the president
spoke only of the tslations being interrupt

At the conclus on of the address the pres

PROCEEDINGS OF
THE COMMISSION
British Wanted Alaskan Boun-
dairy Settled.
FULL DETAILS ARE GIVEN
Americans Accepted Proposals as Basis
of Adjustment, But Made Propo-
sition in Addition-W Wording
# the Amendment.
FULL DETAILS ARE GIVEN

London, June 3.-The foreign office issued
a parliamentary paper tonight giving in
detail the proceedings of the joint high
commission in Washington on February Is
relating to the British proposals for arbi-
tration on the Alaskan boundary. lit says
the British commissioners proposed the
immediate appointment of a tribunal of
arbitration to determine the boundary be-
tween Alaska at Prince of Wales Island
to Mount Saint Elias, in accordance with
the Anglo-Russian treaty of February 2S,
1925, the tribunal to consist of three jurists,
one nominated by the privy council, one
by President Mckinley and the third to be
selected by the nominees. The law govern
Ing arbitrators is as follows:
adverse holding of a prescription during
a period of fifty years shall make good the
title. The arbtrators may gain exclusive
political control of the district as well as
the settlement thereof, sufficient to consti-
tute adverse holding or make prescriptive
title.
"B-The arbitrators may recognize and
give effect to rights of claims resting on
any other ground valid according to inter-
national law or principles of international
cable to the case, which are not in contra
vention OF rule (A).
C.-In determining the boundary, If the
territory of one party shall be found by
the tribunal to have been at the date of
this treaty in occupation of the subjects of
citizens Of other party such effect shall be
given to such occupation as reason. just
principles of international law and the
equities of the case require.
The other articles provide for meeting
sixty days after the printed articles are
submitted; that all questions, including the
final judgment shail be determined by
majority of all the arbitrators, the decs-
ion, If possible, to be rendered within three
months of the close of the arguments, and
the employment of necessary assistance of
scientific experts, each government to pay
its own expenses and the other expenses to
be equally divided.
The concluding article provides that the
high contracting parties shall engage to
consider the result of the proceedings as
full, perfect and final settlement of all
questions referred to the arbitrators.
The Americans accepted the proposals as
the basis of the adjustment, but proposed
in addition to the Anglo Russian treaty
that the boundary should be defined in ac-
cordance with the Russian-American
treaty of cession or as the same shall be
established by the tribunal, under rules
hereinafter provided, the tribunal to con-
sist of six impartial jurists of repute, three
to be nominated by me privy council and
three by the president of the United
States.
The Americans proposed an amendment.
The British members replied in the af-
1rmative, adding that they thought 1t most
Objectionable in view of the policy long
maintained and recently reasserted by the
