Fisheries Question Submitted.

A special agreement was signed by
the United States and Great Britain
January q. 1909. submitting to arbi-
tration to The Hague the controversy
as to the North Atlantic coast Cor
northeastern fisheries.
There can be no disarmament until
the greater powers agree upon a sys-
tenn Of concurrent action" said Secre-
tary Dickinson. in concluding. The
tide Of public sentiment all over the
world is setting strongly in this direc-
ton.
Looking to the progress in peace
measures of the last hundred, and espe-
cially the last twenty years. the hope
may well be entertained that disarma-
ment will become a reality, and that
the people may enjoy not only tho
blessings of peace. but the blessings of
peace without the crushing burden of
preparedness for war"
Gen. Grant spoke briefly upon some
personal recollections of Appomattox
Senator William E. Borah of Idaho
spoke on The Integrity of the States"
The following telegram was sent to
President Taft from the Hamilton
Club:
Greetings from the Hamilton Club of
Chicago on its Appomattox day cele-
bration. Congratulation on the disap-
pearance Of sectional lines as shown in
our guests Of honor, a former member
of the Confederate army now a mem

Part of United States.

LAS Americans. whose government has
always been in the advance guard, con-
tending for humanitarian principles"
continued the Secretary. I'VE take a laud
able pride in the fact that the United
States proposed to our sister republic of
Mexico to submit to The Hague tribunal
the Plus fund controversy, the first case
brought under its authority.
THAT Japan and Russia. two of the
signatory powers, plunged into war with
out resorting to The Tague tribunal
gives no ground for serious concern as
dreamer ever expected all war to be
abolished. 1t was manifest that there
was no place for arbitration between
Russia and Japan"
Speaking of The Hague conference of
1907. which was called by the Car of
Russia upon the initiative of President
Roosevelt, the Secretary of War said
1t was participated in by forty-four
sovereigns. and was the first general
conference of practically all the powers
of the world. At this conference thir-
teen conventions. four declarations and
three wishes were adopted.
Mr.. Dickinson discussed the recent con-
ventions. one of which was that signed in
February. 1909, at London. by delegates
Of ten of the principal maritime powers
Of the world. which was for the regu-
lating Of warfare at sea.
A distinct triumph for the cause Of
international arbitration. continued the
war secretary, was gained when
to The Hague the questions arising out
of the Casa Blanca affair. The ques-
tiOns involved were more or less of
what is termed national honor"
