Provides for Arbitration of ANY

AGREEMENT MUST Be RATIFIED
Convention Is the Result of Recon-
mendati0ns Made by the Hague
Peace Conference.

Washington. Feb. -. - Secretary
Root and Ambassador Jusserand yes.
terday signed a treaty providing for
the arbitration of any Issue that may
arise between France and America.
The treaty will have to be submitted
to the United States senate and to the
French executive before it a become
effective. Meanwhile its provisions
are withheld from publication. It is
understood. however, hat the treaty
is drawn in accordance with the rec
concentration Of the late Hague con
ference. which. finding it Impossible to
draft a general arbitration treaty
that would receive the full assent
and support Of all of the great sig
natory powers. undertake to make spe-
cial arrangement between themselves
for the settlement Of disputes by arbi-
tratiOn. The present convention is be
lieved to be in terms very similar to
one prepared by Secretary Olney and
Lord Pauncefote looking to the arbitra-
ton Of possible disputes between
America and Great Britain, which con
vention failed Of approval by the Unit
ed States Senate.
Reasons for Secrecy.
Owing to the rule that drafts of
treaties must not be made public be
fore they have been made the Subio
of action by the senate. il is imDOSsiD
to ascertain at present how Secretary
Root has been able to overcome the ap-
parently inSurmOuntable obstacle to
the ratification of such a treaty arts
ing from the i~nsistance of the senate
to Its right to pass separately upon
any question to be arhitrated.
The failure of the Hague conference
to agree upon a general arbitration
treaty was caused by the refusal of
some Of the principal European ma

tons
