selfish policy on the part of Great Britain and would recall 10 mind the olden and opproD ous epithet applied to the latter of Perfidious Albion. A resume of such a study will cemon- state to any unbiased mind that it is most unjust to American statesmen to be forced to consider the Hay Pauncefote treaty by itself and not as an ou growth of preceding treaties and to some extent q purchase pr ce for the abrogation Of the Clayton Bu,iver treaty. This Clayi yion-Huliyer treaty was terrible disappoin men' to American statesmen. Men of the calibre of James Ba;nanan, Lewis Cass and James G. 5lains denounced it and called for it's abrogaf Gu. It is generally explained in books like "A Century of American Diplomacy by J. w: Foster, and those of Dr. Frances Wharton, an authority on i1- ternational law. Tsat Clayton was l man of mediocre ability and was clearly outclassed by Dal'ver, but cur John Hay was generally ranked among the first class statesmen of the world and yet he failed to secure his just right With Pauncefot2. The United States can ;lo but one thing in this matter with 'he approval of the American people and that is to proclaim and support the Monroe Dcictr ne, even if the Hoy-Paucefote treaty must be abrogated.

London, Jan. 7.-At last the great powers are moving to save Europe from a renewal of the Balkan war The ambassadors conference, under the presidency of Sir Edward Grey met today to consider the situation, but it is too early to say just what steps will be taken.
 The action will not be in the form Of formal mediation because that re- quires the consent of both parties, which they have not yet given, but there is constant interchange of communication between the amhassa- dors and their governments also be- tween the ambassadors and the peace delegates. The principal question Of the discussion are the future of Ad- rianople and the Aegean Islands. It is believed that although the peace delegates.

MONSlGNOR L. M. LUCEY REVIEWS THE SQUABBLE OVER PANA-
 MA CANAL TOLL.
Great Britain is Demanding Equal Privilege for it's Ships as En-
 jOyed By American Boats.

To the Editor of Graphic: The question of dispute between Great Britain and the United States con- cerning the rates. and privileges of ship toll through the Panama Canal now occupies central position in national debates. The American so- fciety for the judicial settlement of in ternational disputes discussed the matter very seriously December 20 last and while a resolution offered by Everett P. Wheeler, of New York, arbitration of the matter failed to pass, the discussion disclosed the fact that many of our statemen are in fa- vor of granting England demand for an arbitration.
 Recently circular letter was seat to all the clergymen of Washington City from the New York headquarters of one of the Carnegie Peace So- cieties," setting forth the reasons why the English view of Panama tolls should be accepted. The letter is signed by Robert Underwood John- son. Within brackets are the words (Not for Publication). MT. Johnson writes that, with view to aid in the repeal of the provision of the Panama Canal bill exempting the coastwise trade of the United States, he has been requested by prominent adyO- ] cates of arbitration to collect for use with United States iCongress eXpres- sion from the press and distinguished citizens against the coastwise exemp- tion." It is now announced in the daily papers that President Taft is again about to take the side of Eng land in the matter Such being the state of the case, discussion is in order.
 The Hay-Pauncefote treaty of 1Soo on which Great Britain relies to ur- hold her claim to practically eFlal rights of passage of the Panama can al with tho United States, ii viewed in itself would apparently justify tue claim and the Hague Tribunal ol any other similar one would probably d. eide the question, if referred for ar bitration, favorable to Great Britain But on the other hand it is contendad that the Hay-Pauncefote treaty should not be considered as an isolated treaty but as the resultant of several other preceding treaties between the two countries, especially of the Clay ton-Bulwer treaty whose history is Fespecially obnoxious to the American people. Public sentiment in the Unit ed States will not allow the Monroe doctrine to be shelved, which would be the final result of granting the present request of Great Britain.
