Geneva, n. Y, Aug. 1A-Since August ~

MEETS LONG LOST BROTHER
Glad Reunion for Waterbury
Merchant and Prima Donna.
Try Telegraph 10 The Tribune. ]

Waterbury. Conn, Aug. 14-Ending a
search Of twenty-six years, which covered
several countries. a Chicago prima donna
met her long lost brother here Saturday
night Their affectionate embraces at
tracted n big crowd at the Union Station
and almost called for police interference
Tn their great JOY OF meeting they were
separated, and when the woman recov-
cred from the first shock OF happiness she
insisted that her brother prove his kinship,
fearing she might have been imposed upon.
The woman is Sophia Weinstock, Of Chi
cago. a friend Of Anna Held AS a leading
singer in operas she has travelled extern
sively in Egypt. Germany and France. 1t
was during this struggle for a career that
she lost track Of her favorte brother,
Solomon Freedman. He as boy left home
in Russia, and she searched several coun-
tries for him since, but TO no purpose.
Finally the feeblcst clew brought her here,
and while on her way he OWNED her COM
ing and planned surprise at the railroad
station.
Miss Weinstock is being feted here by
friends, and Samuel has closed his big
millinery store IN her honor and wired her
husband. Joseph, of Chicago. to come here
for the festivities.

GERMANY IS WILLING
TO ADOPT ARBITRATION
Count Won BernStorff Gives Reply
to Treaty Offer to Secre-
tary Knox.
MODIFIED FORM PROPOSED
Block to Convention Overcome
by Plan to Give Equal
Power to the Kaiser
and Senate.

Washington. Aug lathe reply of
Germany to the proposition for gen.
eral arbitration treaty with the United
states was presented to the State De-
partment to-day by Count Won Bern
storff, the German Ambassador. 1t is
understood 10 be distinctly favorable to
the principles laid down by Secretary
Knox and to presage the negotiation of
n treaty with Germany similar to the
pending conventions with Great Britain
and France, provided the United States
Senate does not drastically amend those
agreements.
Count Won Bernstorff returned to
Washington to-day from Manchester,
Mass, the summer home of the German
Embassy. to convey his governments
answer. He will confer with Secretary
Knox tomorrow.
All previous efforts to negotiate an
arbitration Treaty with Germany have
failed because Of the necessity to refer
the question of arbitration TO the Senate
in each case in controversy. 1t was as
serted a treaty would bind Germany alb
solutely TO arbtrate. while the United
States was bound only on condition Of
the Senate's approval.
II is understood that Germany's objec-
ton on this score will be met by a
clause in the proposed treaty, contained
also In the British and French conven-
tons. providing that disputes shall he
&c in
each case. and the special agreements
shall be binding only when confirmed by
the two governments by an exchange OF
notes. This will give the German En-
peror, as we'll as the Senate, an Oppor-
tunity 10 ratify the special agreements.
The Senates threat to modify the
PENDING treaties with Great Britain and
France found an echo in the House to-
day when Representative Bartholdt, OF
Missouri. made a plea for international
peace denouncing the upper body's OPP
position 10 the conventions. He said the
big stick philosopher of oyster Bay"
wanted to leave the doors open for war.
President Taft has about decided not
10 press the Senate TO ratify the arbi-
tration treaties at the special session OF
Congress After his return from Beverly
to-day the President learned that an
ATTEMPT 10 have the Senate act favor
ably on the pacts at this time might re-
suit in long debate, and that finally they
might be agreed to only in modified
form
1t was expected that in ocean Grove.
y. J., where the President speaks to-
morrow night. he would again appeal TO
the people for support. but tonight il
was said that arbitration Will not be the
Presidents topic in that speech. ANY
further speeches on the subject Of peace
and arbitration are likely to be post
poned until the Presidents Western
n trip next month.

bill on the ground that il differs little from
that offered 10y Senator La Toilette, provid-
ing that the Cummins iron and steel

From The Tribune Bureau
washington, August II


MIR ROOsEVELTS MISTAKE.-Ex-
President Roosevelt made a curious mistake
when he took seriously the suggestion that
he had been deceived by Messrs Gariield
and Pinchot when he exempted from the
Chugach forest reserve the water frontage
on Valdez Arm, Orca Bay, etc, which was
made I'm this column in The Tribune of
June %. That entire dispatch. with the
exception of the last paragraph. was IN
tended to be ironical. And equally mis-
taken is his impression that the dispatch
sought TO Justify the release OF the land
fronting on Controller Bay. That had been
so well done I'm President Taft's message
on the subject that ii would have been
work of supererogation for any one else to
undertake 1t. The sole purpose OF that
dispatch was to show the ease with which
n false impression of the motives OF an ad-
ministration can be conveyed by stating
only demonstrabe facts-but not stating
all the facts. OF course, TO those familiar
with the subject the suggestion that Pres
ident Roosevelt was deceived must be RI
diculous. just az il was ridiculous to sug-
gcst that Mr.. Pinchot treated Richard s.
Ryan with consideration as long as he sup
Morgan Guggenheim syndicate in disguise"
or that Mr.. Garfeld's administration of the
Interior Department was in sympathy with
those who would defy the law. Yet TO the
uninitiated n verismilitude could be i'm
parted to those suggestions, or insinuations,
by citing In connection Herewith facts
which are OF record and therefore suscep-
tible Of proof And these statements are
no more ridiculous than many like charges
made against President Taft and his adj
ministration, and made too often by those
who claim TO have only the public welfare
at heart. Nor has any subject so easily
lent itself 10 this sort Of misrepresentation,
as Aaska-perhaps because comparatively
few people are familiar with the geography
or the topography OF that territory.
ANOTHER NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.. A
further indication Of the difficulty OF MAX
ing ones self clear is to be found In
Colonel Roosevelts suggestion that per-
haps the one assertion I'm that dispatch
which was made i'm all seriousness was
intended 10 be ironical," namely, that the
sane view was that he acted as he did be-
cause he thought "the law then, and still,
in force sufficiently protected the public
interest Surely Mr.. Roosevelt might
properly protest had the converse of that
proposition been asserted. And equally
surely. President Roosevelt would not
have excluded from the forest reserve, on
the recommendation of Mr.. Pinchot or of
any one else, the frontage on Valdez Arm
and other bays had he not believed the law
sufficient to protect the public interest.
That lie sought to induce Congress to i'm
prove the law is. of course, true. SO has
President Taft. Yet il would he unjust to
assume i'm the one case more than in the
other that because the President has
