As time pro greases without doubt conferences to tho tribuual will becomo in creasingly natural and normal, and thus wo may hope to havo every advantago claimed for obli- guiury iiruuruiiou wiiuom us over whelming disadvantages. But it could hardly be expected that wo should bo willing to accept the re quirement to sweep away at once hero and now the policy of Mon roeism. "If any modification is over made of that policy it must be made by the Uuited States aftor it has had tho fullest opportunity to study tho subject in all its bear ings.

Foartb, between an American powor other than tho Unitod States and a foreign power. In ovory instanco, said Mr White, the Unitod States has re garded these arbitrations as pro moting peaco, and there is nothing in our history to warrant tbo idea that our attitudo would be hostilo to any sottUment possible under this convention.
