not to leave a living witness to the
killing of Hudsons companion.
The defense made a sweeping charge
that the whis5ey interests financed
the prosecution and asked the jury to
free Hall so that officers of the law
in Virginia might know and see that
Virginians are behind them in enforce

The judge charged the jury that an
officer of the law is within his rights
in killing to protect his own life even

BARES SECRET
FRENCH TREATY
Ambassador to Italy in Talk at
French Colony Tells of
Neutrality Agreement"
SHATTERED ALLIANCE
Italy Agreed in 1902 to Remain
Neutral Should France Be
Forced to Declare War

Rome. Jan. 1.-The most notable
event of New Years day in Rome was
the address of Camille Barrere, the
French ambassador, during a reception
to the French colony, at which he said
he had never practiced what is de-
scribed as secret diplomacy.
tDiplomatists have been maltreat-
ed" he said. "They were accused of
praeticing the mortal sin of under
ground diplomacy while publicity
ella inning It's suppression But it Is
difficult to suppress what does not
exist.
1.-TWO things are confused which
have nothing in common with secret
diplomacy. If I followed directions
contrary to those of my government ]
would practice secret diplomacy; but
when ] keep silent on state affairs
which I negotiate with the govern
ment to which / am accredited I
simply accomplish an elementary duty
without which the nations constant
ly be at each others throats. Many
and delicate affairs are ar
ranged, which if divulged would deep
ly disturbed the tranquility of the peo-
pies.
Proof of this has just been demon
strated in a striking manner. The
Franco-Italian agreement of 1900,
eliminating all causes of conflict in
the Mediterranean and tracing reci-
procaI spores of influence in Africa,
was followed BY an agreement in 1902
that in case of an ag-
gressive war either country would
maintain strict neutrality even in case
one of them was Obliged to declare
war to defend her honor and safety.
What the two governments agreed
contained nothing clandestine, nothing
which could not be confessed. But
if we recall the situation in Europe
then it will be easily understood that
knowledge of the agreements by those
who had an interest in making them
would have been a grave
danger.
France still wanted peace while the
central powers prepared for war. If
the Teuton powers had known the
ties about to be established between
the two great Latin peoples they
would have done everything to break
them off such an attempt would
have put the peace of the world in
danger, Fastening the hour in which
our adversaries determined to CONSOLE
date their hegemony by iron and fire.
The French and Italian governments
were therefore wise TO keep their
agreements a secret, which was never
violated

of the radical idea and to
counteract it through the teaching of
