Britain not TO give anti Americans an OPP

In the Globe, which declares that though
Americans as a whole are learning 10

with Great Britain, "there is SIN a group
OF politicians whose main object is 10
annoy and humiliate Great Britain
Various American dispatches refer

the amendments. According to rumprs
here this S greatly due TO private con-

the Daily Telegraph and a lengthy dis
patch from the American correspondent
OF the London Times Each takes exactly
opposite views. The Associated Press is
officially informed that neither can be
taken 10 represent the governments
views, for the excellent reasons that
these Views are not yet concentrated into
a decision The conferences so far held
between United States Ambassador
Choate and Secretary OF state for Foreign
Affairs Lord Lansdowne have occurred at
the instigation Of the latter and were for
the purpose of enlightening Lord Lans-
downe on various technicalities so as TO
enable him to explain them 10 the cab
met meeting Friday. Until that Is held,
Great Britain's attitude will not be
known Forecast thus develops into
speculation.
Dhe United states embassy officials
appear to be hopeful Of the acceptance of
the amendments to the Hay-Pauucefote
treaty.
In spite OF this impression and taking
full consideration OF the opportunities Of
the embassy officials in determining
which way the cal is likely to jump, the
Associated Press has excellent reason to
Believe that IL Lord Lansdowne's voice
predominates In the cabinet, Great Brit
ain will not accept the amendments.
There is no shadow OF doubt that il the
foreign office is followed Great Britain
will either regretfully express her iu-
ability to comply with the amendments
or fail to take any action whatever, in
which case the treaty will lapse OF it
self. Several of Lord Lansdowne's ad-
visers favor the latter course. Thet
feelings can we'll be Judged from a state
ment of one of the foremost of his ad-
visers, who. replying 10 u remark that
