Discussion of Armaments.

st. Petersburg. March On. Martens. who
has been visiting the capitals OF Europe for the
purpose of determining the programme of the
next peace conference at The Hague. is ex-
pected IN st. Petersburg next week.
The announcement of the results Of his trip
will be made after he has reported to the En-
peror. The introduction Of any measures for the
Limitation of ornaments is regarded here as def
nitely excluded. because Of the attitude main
tanned by several of the powers consulted on this
question.
Ambassador Riddle has made inquiries at the
Foreign Office here regarding the mode of adj
mission to the next conference Of certain South
American and other states which did not take
part in the first conference. He was informed
that practically all the sgnatories had agreed to
the method proposed by Russia-namely, notif-
cation Of acceptance of the regulations. the
signing of the protocols Of the first conference
and the nomination OF delegates The date for
holding the next conference proposed by Hol-
Iand-June lis acceptable to Russia.

government could comply with the request with
the full knowledge that no objection would be
made by Great Britain. Russia may even offer
assistance without the invitation of the Shah. an
offer which Great Britain would advise the
Persian ruler to accept.
Great Britain would do her part by sending
warships to the Persian gulf ports but she
would not so further unless the landing of
force became necessary to protect foreigners In
Southern Persia, which In the agreement be-
tween Russia and Great Britain would be rec
