THE ANGLO AMERICAN COUNCIL

That International tribunal for the
arbitration OF the outstanding pecuni.
airy claims between Great Britain and
the Unied States win attract world
wide attention The court, which
was created By a special arrangement
between the two countries in 1910,
will aim to settle claims of private
persons between them, some Of which
go back to the war Of 1912. Citizens
of all of Britains colonies. as well rs
of Britain herself and Of the United
States, are involved, and as no such
diplomatic adjustment has previously
been attempted since 1858, the year i'll
which Milland Fillmore, the last of
the Wings. left the presidency, the
task which eonfronts this international
court will be seen TO be heavy.
Coming in these centennial peace
times. this Anglo-American court will
have the whole world for an audience.
IN settling international disputes BY
arbitration, England and the United
States have taken the lead among
the great peoples The Treaty Ct
Washington which led TO the settle
ment of the Alabama claims was viz.
tually a new departure in the dealings
between nations. That was in 1874,
during Grants service as president.
The foremost soldier OF our civil war
had large influence in pushing that
peace pact. Many adjustments along
ttat line of disputed questions Of va
rious sorts have taken place since
then Grants Alabama claims treaty
furnished an example which the men
had in mind who met in The Hague n
1889 to form the peace tribunal estab-
lished in that place at that time. I.
will be remembered that the United
States held a prominent place in TIE
deliberations Of that court. And such
vitality as the tribunal has been en-.
abled to maintain ever since has been
impaired to it by the government at
Washington.
The Treaty Of Washington which
will result from the deliberations Of
this tribunal may also turn out to bc
past breaking in their consequences
They will necessarily and inevitably
be a large factor in favor of the pres
eryation Of world peace. A season
which has seen five little countries i,
Southwestern Europe in active anc
bloody war can hardly say that inter
national amity has been very frml,
established yet among men. but mor'

French Market Of New Orleans
the boy who meets Frank Whit
ney at the Auditorium Armory to-
morrow nights the fastest, flash
lest boxer that Atlanta has seen in
moons. He demonstrated it yes
terday afternoon at the Armory
when he worked out with four of
the cleverest boys in Atlanta and
showed them up for a lot Of Rubes.
Russell had not been in Atlanta
two hours when he turned up in full
regalia at the Auditorium, ready for
anything. At the telegraphic re-
quest of his manager, a serried ar
ray of sparring partners was lined
up, waiting for them. He took them
on, one at a time-though he could
have handled the whole bunch at
once, and hammered them f1ercely
Such dazzling speed as Russell
showed has not been equalled in
Atlanta in moons.
This Russell has an awful left
jab, a bone breaking affair that he
follows up with a straight right
hand to the stomach. He doubled
up all his sparrlng partners with
it yesterday, and he will make
Whitney open his eyes, and maybe
close them again, when 1t is I'M
loosed tomorrow.
Russell seemed just as good de
fensively as extensively. Kid
Young, Of all the boys who faced
him, landed at all, and the Kid
didn't do enough damage to muss
up a paperweight. The rest Of
them jabbed and hooked away at
thin air
Russell is one of those excep-
tionally clever boys who pick off
the punches before they start-as
that past master of boxing, Packey
Mcfarland, does. And Packey him
self could not do it any more clev-
erly than Russell He seems to
