(United Vnu LetMd Wlr. "London, .Oct 1. Further trouble be tween' England and the United Statea over the question of tuning rights In Newfoundland, notwithstanding their acceptance of the award of the Interna tional board of arbitration, la believed by well informed Englishmen to be Im -evttable, , . ' A long as ' Newfoundland remain sparsely settled the award will prove satisfactory, but at the. present rate of population Increase, Newfoundland will soon have as many people as she wants, , and then, it is, freely predicted, the prtv liege granted' to American fishermen are bound to arouse fresh friction.? The immunity granted to the United " States fishermen from cuatoins super vision will be quite sufficient in itseir to bring about chaos. Local differences will again become acute, and it may be that another long and expensive ml ga llon between America and England will be entered upon. " ' ' tt! Curing the recent discussion on -this latest development of Anglo-American affairs, however, a solution of the New foundland question which might prove fihuPbas suggested Itself. .There has bes a great deal of indignation In Eng land lately on account of the suspicion which is current to the effect that the United States, In contravention of treat ies made at different times. Intends for tifying the Panama canal. v Sentlmsat Against Canal Fortification. On every "side the cabinet Is being urged never to allow this. "A breaking of diplomatic faith" and a betrayal of English ; interests." art the usual ex pressions heard in connection with the expected fortifications. ; IB fsct, some espoelally pugnacious agitators urge that the British navy should be ata tloned on the spot to -prevent, anything of the kind happening. f - , Cooler people, however, believe that in the matter of the canal will b found the opportunity for 4 deal, and at the same time for a settlement of the Newfound land dispute. To them it seems reason able that Great Britain should, say to the United States: "By the" treaty you undoubtedly have ho power to fortify th Panama canal on your own occount Still we are ready to withdraw our op position If on the other hand you are willing to give up all that you gained under The Hague award." Many people are beginning to think that .It might very easily be possible for an arrange ment of this kind to be made. Besentful Attitude Continues. ... But the most Curious part of the dis cussions going on -with reference to Anglo-American relations" recently has been the increasedfeeling of resent ment noticeable oh the part of every Englishman - who has had anything to say whatever in regard to America and things American. Apparently. . the Englishman has changed of late in his outlook toward America. Of course, he ha never ex actly been a Jover of that country.. Any American who has visited England has discovered this fact. But tip till now, or at least for many years, the Eng lishman has generally had some sort of fear, especially In all matters relating to business, of the American and his methods. This feeling has changed ut teriyi The Englishman now firmly and sincerely believes that he oan meet the American en ; any ground he chooses and give him a start and a beating. ; . It is too difficult to account for this change. Some people attribute It to the . Insurance scandals some years back; Others to the Jeffries-Johnson fight; r others to the opinion formed of Colonel Roesevelf :durlng hie. stay . In Europe. .No man's personality could possibly be more repugnant to the temperament and nerrts of the average Englishman than that of the ex-presldent, and from the gutter v urchin upward, most people -In England thought it tbeirduty to ex press the loftiest contempt for the hust ling orator and his ways. Apparently, . this feeling has spread to their attitude toward all things American. , , ' One of the loudest expressions of opinion In regard to this question has . come from John Mills, a typical north of England manufacturer,- who has paid many visits to .the .Rltei .States.!11!! is wnat.ne eays:.. :,.,,...,.
