THE HAGUE FIZZLE.
A dispatch from St. Petersburg
yesterday says that "the results of
tfae peace conference have fully come
up to the expectations of the gov
mment." As a matter of fact, they
lave fully come up to the expecta
tions of all the rest of the world. In
other words, the peace conference
ls been a side-splitting farce from
fret to last. The principal object
for which the czar invited the powers
to come together was disarmament.
They have all refused to disarm.
Effort was also directed to the
adoption of a plan of arbitration,
lmt even this was only a partial
success. The compulsory feature
bad to be dropped at t2e start. The
convention upon this head, as it
reads, amounts to little more than
a declaration that arbitration is
preferable to war. The acceptance
of an- of the provisions is purely
Toluntary on the part of the powers
interested.
The conventions exempting piivate
property at sea from seizure, pro
hibiting the use of bullets that ex
pand or explode in the human body,
the throwing of explosives from
"balloons and the use of asphyxiating
projectiles, were not signed by all
tfae powers. The United States
signed ouly the declarations against
the use of asphyxiating gases and
the throwing of explosives from
balloons, and the arbitration clause
with reservations; but the final ac
ceptance of these by this country
will depend upon the ratiDcation by
the senate, as none of the conventions
are binding upon any country until
xatiCed by its treaty-making power.
The delegates of our own country
refused to condemn the dum-dum
bullet, and the representatives of
Germany, England, Austria, China,
Italy, Japan and several minor
-powers refused to condemn the drop
ping of explosives from balloons or
the use of asphyxiating gases.
The delegates from the United
States would not agree to prohibit
the use of the dum-dum bullet be
cause they said they were instructed
not to assent to unything that would
trammel the development of Ameri
can inventive genius. This is all
felderol. There is as much objection
loan expanding or explosive bullets
a there is to the use of chemicals or
ialleons for dropping explosives
froa on high. There is no more
Inrbansm in overcoming the enemy
witb asphyxiating gases than in over
timwing bin with a mangling buliet.
is not much difference be
a dangerous niaiile ired
fcarkootally and one dropped from
mm airship. The ditctMtioos and
M tbste Mtten have
child's play.
Ia mtUr to save itoelf froa the
charge of complete failure the con
ference points with pride to the
establishment of a permanent board
of arbitrators, to which international
litigants may submit their controver
sies. But such submission, as we
have pointed out above, is purely
voluutary, and the arbitrators are
likely to have little work to do. The
agreement if the nations ratify it
confers no additional rights or privi
leges, for all nations at all times
have been at liberty to submit their
disputes to arbitration. There is no
provision to compel a nation, by
force, to accent the verdict of the
arbitration board, and if there were
the United Stales senate would never
ratify the agreement, as our govern
ment could not afford to place itself
in an attitude which might bind us
to take part m an armed intervention
for the purpose of averting a Eu
ropean war.
There hate been many exchanges
of complimentary remarks between
the peace delegates, but little that is
definite or final has been acquiesced
in. and if war should break out
tomorrow between some of the
larger powers represented it is doubt
ful if a single provision m the peace
declarations would be lived up to.
