+ Washington, Dec. The short
session of congress which opens to-
day promises to be deeply immers-
ed most of the time in foreign af-
fairs. Seldom has there been a
time when foreign affairs were press
ing for consideration in more differ
ent directions. Although the United
States is not taking any part in the
disturbed affair of Europe growing
out of the Balkan war, it is watch
ing every move of all the countries
concerned with the keenest interest.
To the south, Mexico, Nicaragua,
and Cuba demand attention be-
cause of revolutionary conditions.
Relations with the Republic of Pan
anna are not good. The senate may
be compelled to consider submit
ting the question of free tolls for
American ships through the canal
for arbitration The Russian pass
! port question may break in upon
congress once more ut any time
In the Orient the question looms
up as to whether this government
shall recognize the new :epublic OF
| China And there are the Philippines
| The demand for independence of the
islands is growing among the ma
tives, and Manuel l.. Quezon, resi-
dent delegate from the Philippines
in entering on the publication of 8
monthly journal devoted to inde-
pendence for the Filipino predicts
that the Jones bills for a qualified
independent government in the Phil
ipines will be passed by the house
next winter.
! Thus it appears that American i'm
per!alism is becoming sufficiently
real to compel congress, to say moth
ing of the executive end of the gov
ernment, to keep attention riveted
on about very corner Of the globe
1t used to be that things were deem
ed fairly exciting if there was one
fair-sized foreign complication or
hand.
Nobody can tell what direction
events in Latin America will take
The belief is strong here, how
ever, that the investigations which
the senate set on foot N Mexico
Cuba, and Nicaragua are going t
prove valuable They are expected
to shed light on the question wheth
er the recIrrept revolutions ant
threatened revolutions are bona fide
or whether they are fomented b.
American financiers who have axe
! to grind.
Il is believed that American polio.
with respect to Latin America o
