Substantial Agreement Reached on Subject 81

tMEANlCOs CITY Dec. 26.-To-day sub
stant1al agreement on the subject Of ar
bitratfon was reached by the several del
egations to the Pan-Amertcan Confer
ence. Contrary to what had been antic-
1pated, it is almost certain that the
agreement is unanimous, including even
Argentina, whose delegates, 1T was
thought, would refuse to sign any but a
compulsory scheme of arbitration The
basis of agreement is simply The Hague
convention All the nations represented
at the conference in Mexico will become
parties to The Hague convention They
might join it independently, but as the
United States and Mexico are already
members of The Hague convention, it has
been concluded that they shall have the
honor. Of introducing the other nations
In addition, the nations to the conference
other than the United States, Chill. Co.
lumbia, Ecuador, Nicaragua and perdha IS
one OF two others, will sign among thecl-
selves a scheme of compulsory arbitra-
ton, but still accepting The Hague tri-
bunal and The Hague procedure.
This compulsory plan, however. it is
said. will only take effect among the sig
natory nations and Will not have the
official sanction of the Pan-American
Conference.
A sentiment is growing up in favor Of
fixing January 5th as the definite date
for the closing of the conference.
Hon. Volney Foster, of Chicago one OF
the United States delegates takes a
hopeful view of the result of the CONVEX
tons work, declaring that he believes
that the congress will be success and
that it will achieve what it set on. to
do under its programme.
