Special Gable TO THE New York HYsALp
CopDri0ht, 1891. by THE New York ;IEnAl D.
New York Herald Bureau,
Paris, Dec. 26.)
The crash of the Banque Industrielle
de Chine, which went into a receiver
snip recently, seriously affecting
French financial and political prestige
in the Far East. to-day brought to an
end here one of the most brilliant dip
lomatic careers when Philippe Berthe
lot, Secretary General of the French
Foreign Office, resigned. For years
he has been one Of the most powerful
figures directing Frances exterior
policies as head of the permanent sec
ton of foreign affairs at the Quai
dOrsay. Although many persons be-
lieved his resignation was inevitable
after the Banque de Chine revelations,
nevertheless his resignation was some
thing of political sensation to-day
and was regarded as indicating an in
creasing weakness of the BRAND Gov
ernment.
Having defended M. Berthelot several
times previusly in the Chamber of Dep
uties, against charges connected with the
failure Of the bank, even to the point of
threatening to hand in his own resigna-
tion If criticisms of the Secretary Cen
eral Of the Foreign Office continued, Pre-
mier Brands attitude In the face Of this
new denouement is awaited with inter-
est Some Of the Premier's enemies are
now predicting his overthrow even be-
fore the Cannes meeting Of the allied Su-
preme Council. and that Raymond Poin-
care, formerly President OF the Republic
and still a pawer in French politics, will
succeed him as Premier
Premier Millerand Is understood to be
ready to go any lengths to avoid Poin-
care Ministry, not desiring 20 have the
onetime President OF the Republic in
such relationship to him.
M. Berthelot's resignation was the re"
suit of new correspondence, made public
In the Chamber of Deputies regarding
his connection with the Banque de Chine.
Premier BRAND being ignorant of these
latest documents when he, on Saturday.
defended M. Berthelot before the Cham
ber. Chief Of these new revelations was
a telegram from NJ. Berthelot to Maurice
Casenave. French High Commissioner In
New York wherein he asked M. Case
nave to obtain the support of American
banks. pending negotiations with regard
to forming consoritium, to the extent
that the American banks accept the
Banque de Chimes checks without ques-
tion.
M. Berthelot took this step apparently
on his own authority, but inasmuch as
of the administrators OF the Banque de
Chine. this telegram, on top OF others
published soon after the bank failed,
gave his enemies fresh support for their
charges that he has misused his position
at the Foreign ONCE.

represented as having declared that
much as the British Government
would like to avoid the necessity for
spending large sums of money for
naval equipment. it would do so If con-
ditions compelled adoption of such un-
desirable methods.
Discussion of the submarine issue
to-day mainly had to do with the con-
sequences of the possible refusal OF
France to modify her submarine
claims. Counter proposals were sug-
gested without number, the majority
of them being most intangible or high

French Government will yield to the
logic of the situation.

DOMINICANS BLOCK
US. WITHDRAWAL
Refuse to Call Election for
Establishment of Own
Government.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 26. Political
leaders in the Dominican Republic have
rejected the conditions FOR withdrawal
of the Military Government by the
United States proposed in the proclama- :
ton issued by the Military Governor
last June. It was reported. to-day by the
special Senate committee which has
just returned from an Investigation OF
conditions there and in Haiti.
"The population, under the advice oi
the leaders" Senator Medill Mccormick
chairman Of the committee. said In a
statement summarizing it's observations
''has declined to take any steps to hold
elections to constitute Dominican Gov
ernment, which might negotiate the
terms and arrange the conditions OF the
withdrawal of American forces and ter
ninate the Military Government con-
sttuted by the forces of the United
States.
cat present II Is impossible to advise
substantial modification of the terms
of the proclamation, regarded as neces-
sary to assure civil order and peace
within Dominican territory, the mainte-
nance Of its credit and the discharge OF
It's obligations"
Such a modification. however. wei
may be justified. Senator Mccormick
said with the greater stability against
revolution which would result for any
Dominican Government through com.

committee believes. Senator Mccormick

Machinery Planned to Make
Effective Work of Wash

TO carry out the provisions of the
agreements which will result from the
Washington conference, special inter-
national commissions will be appointed
according to the opinion expressed by
working members of the conference here
to- day. While it is too early to make
anything like definite prediction on the
niimber of these commissions and their
functions, it seems certain the delegates
have in mind the creation of machinery
TO make effective the work they will have
done in Washington.
For instance, it seems certain that a
set of officials will be appointed to exc
cute that part of the naval program
which provides for the scrapping of a
certain amount of existing tonnage. Of
ficial action has not been taken yet. but
Il is understood international naval
boards will be named to do this work.
It is not expected that one set of naval
officers will travel around the world to
see that each of the Powers which is a
party to the agreement sinks the dis
carded ships. The probable plan will be
that a separate board will act in each
country. In the case of America, the
Navy Department would designate GER
tain officers to carry out the orders Of
the conference, these American officers
TO be accompanied while at work by the
naval attaches in Washington of the
foreign Powers and. perhaps. other for
eign officers from warships stationed in
this section of the world.
Another group, similarly elected.
would observe the British Admiralty
carry out It's part of the bargain. and
still other groups would oversee the
work that is to be carried out in France,
Italy and Japan.
While the problem of naval commits
sions is comparatively simple that deal
ing with the work of carrying out the
orders of the conference In Far Eastern
matters Is apt to be somewhat compli-
Gated. In the case of Shantung, for in
stance, II is expected that American.
French and British commissioners will
have to sit In connection with the valua
ton of property. III the prediction OF
some of the delegates Is sound neither
China nor Japan would be represented
In this commission. Railroad and
mining experts. for instance, would look
over the property Japan will be ex-
pected to turn back to China and arrive
at a fair valuation.
Still another commission, IL not sew
eral, will be necessary TO settle ques-
tions involving the restitution TO China
OF her fundamental sovereign rights. In
addition to the settlement OF the ques-
tions involved In extraterritorial change

sions to foreigners.
Those familiar with conditions in
China feel there should be a commission
to look into all these concessions and to
clear up the titles which are not being
operated In many cases the holding OF
concession by a foreigner is prevent
ing the Chinese from operating.

Hughes is almost certain to CO. proba-
bly, will be at work soon on the list of
things to be done.
His extraordinary tact and patience
may be put to strain by Spanish tenn
permanent boiling over fierce jealousies.
The heavy drama of the Far East has
diverted public attention from theatre
cal occurrences among the southern
republics. There are thorny situations
in Latin America-Chile and Peru
close to a fight, evidences Of growing
antagonism to the United States,
troubles in q dozen quarters. There IS
a feeling among interested European
diplomats that it would be wiser to
hold the Pan American conference in
Washington rather than in a carttal
of one of the disturbed South American
countries. Candor and a spirit of COM
promise might be better served.
Latin Americans here feel that they
should have been invited to the arms
and Far Eastern conference. The
diplomats have not sounded this COM
plant, but it is palpable that they are
sensitive about having been ignored.
They say privately that the United
States should have asked representa-
tives from several Of the larger re-
publics to sit with the conference.
especially since the work was done in
q building of which Latin America
owns twenty shares in twenty-one.
The world seems to be getting the
habit Of conference and compromise.
The two problems commanding atten-
ton just now have to do with the ef-
forts OF the English and the Irish and
the Japanese and the Chinese. If these
turn out happily anything is possible,
even for Latin-Americans to bury the
hatchet. The Japanese-Chinese contro-
versy is staged here. but 1t rs the
1911 SlSPdlC, hothVi ehAo
Irish Irish dispute. which captures the
largest share of interest. There will
never be anything monotonous or
humdrum about Hibernian politics.
especially since the Irish, after ruling
the rest of the world. are faced with
the task of ruling themselves.
Corn is still king, heading all crops,
but. like other kings. cheaply held.
In Kansas they are burning it for fuel.
A Western farmer in Congress sug-
gests it might be well to think a bit
before sending millions OF dollars
worth of corn, however cheap, to feed
the starving in Russia. He says ex-
perience proves that Europeans don't
know how to prepare corn for food
and rarely like it. Vast quantities
were sent TO Ireland in a famine time
and wasted, because the people didn't
