olas was based upon the principle of arpltra-
ton Whether the proposal contemplates aroi-
tration of all the articles upon which the pleni-
notentiaries have failed to agree or only upon
the question of indemnity cannot be stated with
postiveness. but it is more than probable that
il relates only to indemnity to indemnity and
the cession of the island of saghalien
Neither is it possible to say whether the Presi-
dent has vet made a similar proposition TO
Japar. The customary diplomatic proceedings
in such a case would be TO submit the proposal
simultaneously to both countries, but there
might be an advantage in securing the nd-
herence of one before submitting it to the other.
To Emperor Nicholas the author of The Hague
Peace Conference the suggestion of arbitration,
which will necessarily Immediately command the
sympathy of the public opinion of the world, will
be particularly hard to reject.
If he agrees. Japan, if she has not already done
so. would be all the more bound to submit her
claim to the decision of an impartial arbitrator.
Acceptance by both sides would involve great
extension of the principle of arbitration. as ma
tions have heretofore declined to arbitrate ques-
tions involving their "honor and dignity" Both
NJ Takahira and II. Witte in the earlier stages
of the conference absolutely rejected the idea Of
arbitration.

Michael Angeles Work.

Michael Angelo relied almost entirely
upon form-the form OF the figure and
OF the draperies, He told Pope Julian
H., when the latter requested him to
paint the ceiling OF the Slstine chapel
at Rome, that he was not a painter,
but Il sculptor; yet, after he had shut
himself up for four years-from 1908
to l5l2-and the scaffold was removed,
a result had been achieved which Is
without parallel in the world. Very
wonderful is the work which Michael
Angelo spread over this vast area of
10000 square feet. The fact that
there are $40 principal figures. many

WEAVING In
PHILIPPINES

Many thousands of women-it will
be remembered the number of looms
was reported as AZ 600 in 1s76-are en-.
gagged in weaving the various native
fabrics Of hemp, cotton and silk that
are employed for local use. These pro-
duets give evidence Of a much higher
skill and delicacy of taste than those
woven on native looms in many other
parts of the world. Possibly they are
only excelled by Chinese and Indian
brocades. Moreover, these textiles are
sui generis, necessarily original in tex.
ture and quality, as they usually con
tain Manila hemp as one Of their ma
t%erials. Some of these cloths-espe.
cially just, a fine o~rgandie-like fabric
of silk and hemp-though not durable,
are well calculated, IN account of their
beauty and delicaey and the chaste and
artistic patterns often employed, to
find a market in other countries. While
the custom Of household weaving is
found everywhere, and the loom is as
universal an article Of furniture as the
bed in many parts of the Philippines,
there are certain provinces that seem
TO be especially devoted to this indus
try. Around Iloilo, in Panay, and
among the West Negros coast, the loom,
with its brilliant, half finished roll of
just, is to be seen through almost every
cottage window. This is equally true
in some of the Luzon provinces. There
are weaving mistresses who keep sew
eral looms busy in their house, employ
ing a number Of women and girls as
weavers at a wage that in Spanish
times wat usually a real (l2h cents
Spanish currency a day, but is now
more usually a peseta, or the equiva
lent OF 8 or 9 cents in American money.
These embryo factories are probably
increasing in number in Toilo and Ma
Mia, for an active American demand
exists for certain patterns and tex
lures Of this cloth, and the price has
risen. More frequently, however, such
work is paid for by the piece, and is
bought in or woven on shares for small
dealers. A just. merchant woman in
Bulaean informed the writer that she
gave her weave material for ten
pieces, receiving Eve pieces of cloth
in return. A woman constantly en-
ployed can weave a fve-vara (4.57
yards) piece of the plain just in three
days, though Of course, the time re-
quired varies with the. pattern and
quality Of the cloth and the deftness
of tho weaver These fve.vara (4.57
yards) pieces were of a fabric sold in
the local market for native use at $l.25
silver currency (53 cents American cur
rency) each, or about liz cents in
American money an English yard. A
woman constantly employed would
therefore carn about Is cents in Ameri.
can currency a day. Upon an average
they receive much less, because they
work short time. The informant in
question estimated their daily earnings
at 20 cents silver currency (sh cents
American currency a day. She stated
that a woman with a baby could not
earn so much as one without this I'M
fortunate impediment.-Repor on la
