Conservative Member or Parliament for Wednesbury. says thai within the next six years England and Germany will be at war and all of Eu rope will feel the effects of the con flict. He made this prophecy without qualification following; his arrival In New York from the Canadian North west. In saying- It. he gave what h believed to be the reason for Canada s refusal to accept reciprocity at the re cent election. "The people of Canada.' said Mr. Griffiths, "realised In their election that a far greater problem than trade comity with the United States con fronted them and that problem was the bringing together of the English em pire in unity to confront the menace of a war which would soon threaten - ,K mother nation. ine rAiniriivw v. - - "I believe there Is no doubt, he con. tinued. "that within six years may be much sooner England and Germany will be at war and all Europe will be shaken by the conflict. Yes. and Amer ica, too. for America could not help feeling keenly the existence of so great a conflict that will assuredly be. Why do I think this? Because the whole German nation Is seeking a war with us st every turn of the road and when a whole nation is behind a thing like this there Is no stopping it. The bank ers stopped war at the time of the re cent crisis, but war was very near and the bankers cannot always stand In the way of a whole people." SENATE IGNORES PROTEST (Continued From first Pss.. crat. will lead the fight on Monday for the adoption of his resolution, which Is a counterpart of the House docu ment. The Republican leaders are try ing to get together on a substitute which they hope will be accepted. It was said that the House, In Its desire for speedy action, might accept a mod ified resolution rather than get Into a wrangle with the Senate and have the matter go over until after the Christ mas holidays. The Indications tonight were that a resolution agreed upon by both houses would be In the hands of President Taft not later than Wednesday next. There Is no thought that the President will veto the, reso lution In Its final form. Chairman Sulxer, In his statement, said: "Of course I don't know what the Russian Ambassador said to the Secre tary of War. but I am satisfied he did not tell him that Russia would now and henceforth live up to her treaty obligations with the united States and recognise passports held by American citizens without discrimi nation on account of race and religion. Violation la Reaaaerted. "You tell me that the Russian Am bassador objects to the declaration In my resolution that Russia has vio lated the treaty.' This Is true and there can be no question about It. The record In the case Is conclusive and I am surprised that the Ambassador ob jects to the truth. Official Russia seems to be getting sensitive about the matter at last, and that certainly Is a good sign and means much, I hope, for the future. "As a mntter of fact, there Is noth ing offensive In the resolution. To say so Is absurd and begs the question. I drew the resolution carefully, with a desire to say nothing In It to which official Russia or any friend or sympa thizer with Russia could take objection. The resolution Is in diplomatic form and follows the precedents heretofore adopted by Congress, only It Is not so forcible and so drastic In language as some which have been passed by Con gress. It says nothing we do not mean, and It means nothing we have not said before." Daughter In Another City Also In Critical Condition Churchman's Health Broken by Service In Civil War. t LOS ANGELES.

The meeting lasted more than three hours. Throughout the day an effort was made In official quarters to minimize the Importance of the Russian Ambas sador's action. "Russia has made no formal protest against the abrogation of the treaty or against the Sulser resolution." Secre tary of State Knox said. The Rus sian Ambassador refused to discuss the matter in any way. The Ambassador, however, eagerly sought Information as to the probable attitude of the Sen ate. President Consults Leaders. President Taft sent for several of the Senate leaders today and placed the subject before them. He Is said to have urged that the resolution of abrogation be modified. The President, it was said, had not given up hope that the negotiations undertaken some time ago with the St. Petersburg govern ment would meet with success. The demand for immediate action by Con gress bad become so Insistent, however, that he would not attempt to check it- Senators and members of the House, apprised of what many of them char acterized as a veiled threat by Russia to cut off all friendly relations with the United States, discussed the Issue ''itepubllcan leaders In the House were inclined to criticise the Demo crats for having required the adoption of the Sulzer resolution. They had en deavored, they said, to have the reso lution amended. When that effort failed, they voted for it In Its original terms. The resolution was carried, 300 to 1. the only negative vote being cast by Representative Malby. of New York, a Republican. The Democrats weie .quick to defend their action and Chair man Sulzer tonight Issued a statement In which he declared that everything cited In the resolution was true, and that the Russian Ambassador would not attempt to deny it.

El Farclal Predicts Situation Similar to Recent One Will Soon Confront Madero. MEXICO CITT. Dec. 16. El Farclal. at this late date, prints an editorial re garding President Taft'a message to Congress on foreign relations, which was presented December 7. The affirmations contained In the message, the newspaper says, are so definite that they may be taken as out lining a policy applicable to all cases. That policy can be called simply in tervention, inasmuch as the Madero government may find itself shortly con fronting a similar situation to that In which the Diaz government was placed. The newspaper points to the Presi dent's message as proof that the "phan tasm" of Intervention confronts the Mexican nation. It refers satirically to Ambassador Wilson's "penetration, which, at the early date of his inter view with Mr. Taft. enabled him to perceive a situation which no Mexican saw and which only presented itself later."
