TREATIES ARE RATIFIED
DELCASsE SCORES TRIUMPH IN
 CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES.
Large MajOFitiea Recorded in Approval of COvenants Recently Made by France With Other Nations
 of the World.

Paris. Nov. 12.-Foreign Minister Delcasse scored a notable triumph to- day when the Chamber of Deputies, by an overwhelming majority. ratified the Anglo French colonial treaty, and at the same time gave parliamentary ap- proval of his policy of a rapprochment between France and Great Britain.
 The vote closed ten days debate The final hours brought out vigorous opposition in behalf of the fishing in- terests of Brittany and Normandy against the abandonment of the French shore of New Foundland M Surcouf (Rep) urged M. Delcasse to reopen the negotiations for the purpose of getting French citizens the same right of free Americans It was asserted that the French interests in New Foundland would be exterminated as the result of the treaty.
 M Delcasse resisted the request for a renewal of the negotiations and res oIutIon of M. Archdeacon (Nationalis) condemning the treaty was defeated by 435 to 60 votes. The resolution approving M. Delcasse's declaration was adopted by 436 yeas to 94 noes. The treaty was then ratified by 443 to 1O5 votes. The new treaty with Siam was also ratified.
 The effect of the Anglo French treaty Is to terminate French sovereignty over the New Foundland shore, but through out the debate the principal significance of the treaty was attached to its giv- ing practical effect to the Anglo-French rapproohement.

 Participants. ?

Paris, Nov 1.-Two duels growing out of the assault on War Minister Andre by Deputy Gabriel Syveton, in the Chamber of Deputies November 4, were fought today. Lieutenant Andre, a son of the minister. met Count De- Larochetulon, deputy. Swords were used. Lieutenant Andre was slightly wounded.
 Elsewhere in the suburbs NJ Syveton fought Captain Gall. representing Gen. eral Andre. Two shots with pistols were exchanged. but neither of the combatents were injured.

Al a result of the explosion, almost all window glass and many show eases ir nearly every store within q radius oi two blocks of the fire were shattered The streets were completely showerec with fragments of glass.
 The blaze was confined to the Wood run block, the iremen doing admirable work. This firm was burned out en- tirely in 1897 when almost every build ing in this same block waS burned, en- taiiing a. loss of more than a million dollars. Subsequent serious fires with in this block were In 1899, 1909 and February of this year.
 The. dynamite which exploded, was in a ,steol chest on the sidewalk ip front of the Woodruff building. One chest of explosives had been removed by the fircmen and the second chest exploded before it was possible to get 1t away from danger. The fire was under good headway when discovered. the entire interior of the building be- ing practically gutted. Thus the dy- namite was hot when the firemep reached the scene.

.ROOSEvELT'S POLICY
SPECULATION AS TO PROBABLE
 CHANGES.
Some of Those Close to the President Think He VIII KcndeavoR to Be
 Friendly to All the People of fhe NafRox.
~r-.----e-..---..-

Washington, Nov. 12.--(Speclai , 1--- The press and people about Washing ton are busy discussing the probable policy of the administration in its re- Eewed lease of power, especial atten- ton being given to President Roose- velt's attitude on the race question.
 The correspondent of The New York Evening Post, who has long been per- sonally intimate with MT. Roosevelt, writes his paper that there will be no radical change of policy but that exec utive strenuosity this time will be in the direction of a Presidency for the whole people.
 Opinions are indeed various as to what line of action the President means to pursue. It is certain that a number of recent visitors to the White House have found him in a melting and affable frame of mind and have freely talked openly to that effect.
 The Evening Star. of this city. which has all along sought to pose as an ad- ministration organ. rather scouts the idea that Mir. Roosevelt will be any sort different from what he has been, particularly with regard to the South. |.
 After rIdiculing the South for mak- ing much ado over the Booker Wash ington incident and Southern Democrats generally for fickle alliances with dlf- ferent patty factions, touching current talk that the South will take a lead ing part in affairs in 1908, The Star pro- ceeds:
 NO, we may all be sure, the South is not going to lead in 1908, for the very good reason that she has no poll icIes that are of the slightest interest to anybody but herself. And they are hurtful to her. If she cares to shut herself up and shiver over the buga- boos of negro domination and social equality. it Is her privilege to do so But the rest of the country is not. and has no patience with the spook busi- ness.

THE TIME NOT oPPoRTUNE.
DeIeasae Thinks Efforts at MediatiOp
 Would be Futile.

Would be Futile.
 Paris, Nov. l2.-The reports of con- templated mediation in the war in the Far East have again made 1t plain that France does not consider the time op- perfume to exert influence singly or jointly to induce Russia to make or accept terms. At the same moment that the rumors were circulating In various capitals that France intended to act, M. Delcasse, the Foreign Min ister, was pointing out to diplomatic callers that efforts at mediation would be futile. The following is the textual language used when one of the Ambas- sadors sounded the Minister op Frances intention:
 The Ambassador said: Tt is pro- foundly regrettable that the parties did not heed your advice toward aVertine the present slaughter.
 "Yes," answered M. Delcasse. but all my efforts were in vain"
 The Ambassador then asked: Can nothing be done to terminate the war;?
 Minister Delcasse replied with an expression of deep regret:
 NO. I am sorry to say that 1t ap- pears nothing can be done at this time."
 Although brief, this Is accepted as showing that Russia's best friends nave not enIeftdiHtu any pIcSShl PipS- pect of mediation.
 Count Tornielli, the Italian Ambas- sador, has been making inquiries among his colleague sconcerning the prospects of terminating the war but these have indicated no definite steps in any quarter. Count Tornielli spe- cifically denies a printed report that 3 courier from the Italian cabinet has arrived in Paris for the purpose of in- ducing France to take up the work or mediation.
 The Russian Embassy and the Japa- nese legation have also given out statements discouraging mediation. The former said that the attitude Of the Russian government regarding all propositions for mediation remain un- changed If any proposition Is made 1t will be courteously but resolutely declined. The Japanese Minister said that any peace overtures must come from the other side.
 The Temps (semi- oficiaD discussing the American proposition for the reas- sembling of The Hague Peace Conter- ence says if has reason to believe that the Russian government while dis posed to participate in another meet ing will respond that II Is impossible to hold a conference during the dura- ton of the war. The paper also as- serts that Count Lamsdorff, the Rus sian Foreign Minister. understood that the American proposition excluded the idea of A meeting pending the war and it is surprised to learn that meeting is contemplated during the war.
 On tbe other hand The Agencie Russe claiming semi-ofncial connec- tIons, says that Russia has accepted the American proposition in principle.
