British Ambassador Declares Certain
Disquieting symptoms Cannot be
Ignored, Despite Progress of
Cause of Peace.

Hartford, Conn, May 10.-Althougl
unable to attend the New Englan,
Peace and Arbitration congress, whicl
convened here today, Ambassador Jas
Bryce, sent the following letter EN-
bodying his views on peace and arbi
traton
NV Dear Sir 1t is a matter OF grea
regret to me that cannot attend tn,
meeting of the New England Peace
and Arbitration congress owing to tn,
numerous other engagements which
have for the week in which 1t is to be
held
| rejoice TO know that demonstra- :
ton of opinion in favor of peace and
arbitration so large and so earnest as
that which this conference is expected
to give will proceed from the people of
New England.
III Importance of the question itself
cannot be exaggerated and you are
right in thinking that it ought to be
constantly kept before public atten-
ton.
Though the feeling disclosed at sim
liar congresses in the past has been
most encouraging, and though none
now ventures openly to oppose the
propaganda in which you are engaged,
there are still some disquieting symp-
toms which cannot be ignored. All the
great nations profess to desire peace.
yet all maintain enormous naval and
military armaments which impose an
almost intolerable burden upon the
peoples or course, each nation declares
that these armaments are only for its
own protection. intended in fact to Sc
cure peace, and that it has no aggres-
sive designs against others. Yet each
nation does not seem to credit the 9TH
eds with the same pacific intentions ii
phere of general suspicion relgns. AL
legations of intended attacks by some
one nation upon another. however.
recklessly they are made, however i'm
probable I'm themselves, are constantly
scattered forth and receive an amount
of credit surprising to those who know
the real facts of the case. You doubt
less recall an instance of this kind
which occurred not long ago affecting
your own country. Each such story,
each such alarm. has the effect of in
creasing the demand for a further in
crease i'm naval and military prepara-
tions. The alarm usually passes away
after a few months. but the result re-
mains i'm the increased armaments and
in the stimulus given to the latent but
ever present warlike sentiment that
seems to exist in the less educated
and less thoughtful part of the popu-
lation. This sentiment when some
cause of international dispute arises,
which, though possibly real, Is capable
of pacific adjustment. tends to in
flame mems minds. and has sometimes
been found to hurry nation into war.
Your deliberations will doubtless be
addressed to some means of reducing
these still present dangers -, peace.
and Of endeavoring to dispel atmo-
sphere of mutual and usually ground
less suspicion I'm which the great ma
ions of the world seem to be living.
With every good wish for the sue
cess of your Congress, l am
