press calls the New York newspaper $
story remarkable disclosure. ana

adding:
1T is new diplomatic departure

Although the amba ssadors' agree
ment has been received with general
satisfaction in London, the question
of its permanence is raised in some
quarters, and il is admitted that time
alone will show whether 1t is to be
of lasting character. The Daily Tele.
graph is loath to believe that the
conciliatory attitude of France was
due only to the fact that British
election was impending. The news
paper prefers to see i'll the French
position "a new and enduring spirit
of harmony. which only Il clumsy or
dishonest attitude on the part or

That the government is confident
the crisis is not yet at an end seems
to be indicated in speech yesterday

to cooperate with all the allies. but
that if it failed it would be obliged
to take steps to reach solution
without them, deeply as 1t would re-

Counter proposals of the British

Although heretofore no official

Pritish proposals. their nature has
been fully reported in press dis

little doubt that they are generally
acceptable. y treaty agreement will
be drawn up for signature in the near

by the Senate.
