While tht-y waited word from Toklo on the ..n! draft of the Pacific fortlflcatlona pro vlnn, the naval "bin f 1 v" of the amid conference went ahead toda' with the dlcuitlon of othnr fnn luriM of tb five power naval limita tion treaty. Anlde from the formica tions article and varloua annvxna to thn treaty, the five delegation chlefa were In virtual agrometit oo all por tlona of the treaty text. Defore the five came tojeether, each of the dele gullhna had met aeparate'y to review the few point remaining at Itteue. The delay developing over refer ence to the fortification article of the naval treaty to Toklo, led to a general belief that not plenary aeaalon of too conforenco would be ponalble before neit week. In the fortification article the chief difficulty 1 understood to have ar!cn over a preclne definition of the geographical area to lie embraced In the Pacific fortification "ntatu quo." ! The big unanswered question It whether tho Hiring of Japanoee la land extending 300 mile to the nuihward of the mailt Japanese arch ipelago are to be Included In the ter ritory where further fortification I prohibited.

Tho term was first used In tho Root-Taka-lilra many years ago and while It has prated sufficiently definite up to tho present moment ltwas felt that there wa no occasion for a preclio under standing on tbe subject. Among other questions to be set tled la tho number and caliber of guns to bo permitted to airplane car riers. It ha already been decided to attach appendices to the main treaty. These will deal with the limitations to bo placed on the replacement of capital ships; scrapping of ships and other such technical subjects. A short preamble has been sub stituted for the lone one originally drafted by legal experts. It recites in general lorms tho need for some such arrangement to reduce the bur den of arniamont and to make for tho continuation of peaceful relations j between tho principals. As a result of other additions, however, the length of the treaty and Its annexes! uow considerably exceed 5,000 ! words. CANNES, Jau. 11. (By the As - sociatod Press.) Goorge Harvey,!

The permission to run "an open canal across tho property was denied and permission was to be granted only on tho condition that tho water be run through a closed pipe.
