It la 'pointed out that If Japan became
Isolated It would arise from the course of
Great Britain and the United States on ac
count of -their Interest , and sympathies,
whereas French sympathies naturally would
be with Its political ally, BusfU. (
The publication of the Washington dis
patch led to a more hopeful tone, aa It was
regarded as strong evidence that the United
States and Great Britain would succeed In
.nfluenclnj; Jfcpan to accept a peaceful ad
justment. : . .
. The French Foreign office authorized a
cVnlal of 'tha report, printed In New York
and emanating from Paris, to the. effect
that the French and "British governments
had 'agreed to exert pressure on Japan for
the acceptance of tha coming Russian
reply. .;
Some time ago, whlld reports of media
tion were current, a general understand'ng
waa reached :by which, wart In their own
way, Oreat Britain at Toklo and France at
St. Petersburg. . would seek to secure a
specific adjustment, but this related to the
former condition, when the Japanese note
was pending. Since, then there has been
no agreement and no negotiations toward
art agreement concerning' the 'coming Rus
sian reply.
'Waahlngton la Wot Co-operating.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.-U the Russian
reply Indicates a willingness on the ' part
of the St. Petersburg government to conform
to the general lines of Japan's lost prop
osition, It Is learned on adequate authority
that a continuation of the negotiations In
tha earnest effort to reach a final settle
, ment by diplomacy may be expected. The
qualifying statement is added, however,
that Japan's lHat note was at the time
. declared to set forth Irraduelble mini
mum of Its demands, and It Is difficult for
thfe conversant with the Japanese posi
tion to believe that any Important depart
ure, from the general lines' of that nota
would be acceptable at Toklo.
As a result of careful Inquiry at the em
bassies and legations here whose govern
ments are Interested In the far eastern sit
uation, ' directly or Indirectly, the Asso
ciated Press finds a distinctly hopoful view
prevailing, based, It Is understood, on dis
patches received during the last few days,
which appear to warrant the importance
attached by Mr Grlscom, the American
minister at Toklo, to the report which he
cabled the State department on January
V theit information had reached the British
legation there from St. Petersburg that the
reply wsi Wing framed and practically
, would concede 'Japan's demand. Mr. Grls
com was unable himself to confirm this re
port, but he Informed the State depart
ment. Whence It had come to him.
The attention . of the State department
being. called to a Paris cablegram quoting
an alleged Washington dispatch to - tha
effect that the United States was co-operat
ing .-with, - England and France to bring
pressure to bear upon Japan In the Interest
of peace. It was stated today by tha acting
secretary that there had been no such con
certed action, that the United States had
not and would not act with any other power

-MR, FAIRBANKS SUPPORTS THE TREATY
Mr. Clark Predicts the Nomination
of President Roosevelt and Is
Warmly Congratulated by
Ills Associates.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 2. Mr. Clarke, the
new democratic senator from Arkansas,
made his first speech In the senate today.
He spoke two hours and announced h'S
Indorsement of every position taken by
the president in connection with the Pan
ama revolt and In negotiation of tbe treaty
with the new state. He even said that In
view of the provocation given by Colombia
the president might have been expected to
go further than hs did In advancing the
cause Of Panama. He declared that there
was more popular support of the coutsa
of the president's policy among democrats
than among republicans and aald the demo
era tic votes necessary to ratify the treaty
were assured.
Mr. Fairbanks also spoke in support of
the treaty, contending for the Irregulsilty
of all proceedings of the administration on
the Isthmus of Panama. The proceedings
of the day were opened with piayer by
Rabbi Fhlllippson of Cincinnati.
War Congenial to Colombia.
Mr. Clarke said that the civil war now
going on In Colombia. Is but a reaction of
the revolution which had been In progress
for the past three years and In support of
this statement he reviewed governmental I
conditions in Colombia, saying that Its
rulers are men who find In warfaie their
most profitable and congenial calling.
Those men are for the canal, he said, slm-
ply because they see a prospect of getting
$10,000,000 out of It, and not because they
care anything about the United States or
even about the welfare of their own coun- I
try. So turbulent were the people that I
for thirty years there had not been two
years of peace. ' .1
The people In Colombia were worse off I
than were the people of that region when
found 400 years ago by Cortes. Mi Clarke
also' found In the treaty of 1&J4 Justification
for the attitude of the United Statea and
contended that Colombia did have unlimited
sovereignty tn the sense that England, Ger
many and France has. He insisted that if
Colombia itself could not build the cannl
It was bound because of the attitude of
the United States toward It to permit this
country to build it Ho then declared that
as the republic Is an accomplished tact. It
would be an act of foolhardlness for the I
United States to refuse to deal with it.
."Our acts of friendly supervision," he
said, "should' have convinced - Colombia
of the determination of the United States
to do right under all circumstances, and
the Colombian people should have' known
that they were asking too much when they
accepted our protection under the Mon
roe doctrine for eighty years and then de
manded the right to be treated as a neutral
power with . the United States."
' Ths senator predicted, ths nomination of
tho president, saying that white ths demo
crats were In debate as to whom to In
struct for, the republicans knew for -whom.
they must Instruct..
He made a vigorous appeal for the con
sideration of the canal .question independent
of partisan bias and when hs closed was
warmly congratulated ' by a number of
senators from both sides o( tho chamber.
Tha business proceedings of the day were
begun by adopting a resolution Introduced
by Mr, Hoar, permitting the committee ap
pointed to Investigate the charges against 1
Senator Dietrich to employ a clerk; to send
for witnesses ajid to take other steps nec
essary to carry out the orders of ths sen
ate.
Mr. Fairbanks' remarks were devoted
largely to a discussion of tbe question
whether the United Statea was In com
plicity with Panama In tbe revolt of last
November. He spoke of the Importance of
Showing this charge to be without founda
tion, saying:
"While we greatly desire an Inter-oceanic
caaal, we are far mora anxious that It shall
be constructed without any taint whatever
of national discredit."
I fends Action of Government.
'jlr. Fairbanks made ths following gum
nary of conclusions as established by the
record In the case of Panama:
The revolution by the people of Panama
waa due to a 'long series of wrongs In
flicted upon them by the government at
Bogota, and more particularly to the re
jection of the H.iy-Herran treaty.
The revolution was Initiated by the people-
of Panama and was not inspired by
me unitea states.
It waa the duty of the president to adopt
such measures aa he deemed neceaaary to
preserve tho freedom of transit across tha
isthmus and to protect the lives and prop-,
erty of American citizens and the citizens
r other countries upon tne una 01 transit.
The IndeDendence of Panama waa accom
plished ry tne people or me lsmmua.

commissioner 'from'. Porto. Rico, ' Mr. 'De-
gatau. the privilege of the floor, the right
to addreaa the house and representation on

eged matter when that body convened tor

between Mr. Williams, tha minority leader, j
and Mr. Dalsell the previous question Vas 1
ordered on ths resolution and forty minutes
of debate ensued, .
Mr. Dalsell explained that at the last
session Mr. Degetau was granted tba right
to the floor, but It waa desirable In ths
Interests of Porto Rico to grant bin) fur
ther privileges.
Mr. Williams announced that ths resolu
tion waa good legislation, but did not go
far enough. There was no reason why
Porto Rica should not be entitled to a
"delegate" as well as Hawaii.
Mr. Cooper of Wisconsin, chairman of the
Insular affairs committee, although sup
porting the resolution, believed Porto Rico,
with 1,000.000 Inhabitants, was as- morn en
titled to a delegate In congress as Hawaii,
with less than tOO.OOO Inhabitants.
- Mr. Orosvenor of Ohio declared that the
attitude could be construed as- a step In
the direction of statehood fr Porto Rico.
"No more than giving Hawaii a delegate
was a step In the direction of statehood
Tor that territory," retorted Mr. Williams.
The' resolution was unanimously agreed
to and ths president announced amidst ap
plause the appointment of Mr. Degetau as
a member. Of the house committee on Insu
lar affairs.

desired to question the government regard'
Ing its attitude on the'flacal question, and
asked waa It a new government with a new
policy. The only way of .dealing with the
existing confusion, he added, was to appeal
to the sense of the electors of the country.
In conclusion Sir Henry arraigned the gov
ernment's attitude on the fiscal question
and announced that John Morley would in
a few days introduce a mors comprenen

'Austen Chamberlain, the chancellor of tha

Enrl Spencer, the ..liberal leader In the
Lords, followed. He paid a tribute to the
late Lord Salisbury, the duke of Devon
shire and Lord Lansdowne and, continu
ing, alluded to the situation In the far
east. The earl said he hoped the govern
ment's friendly office had been offered to
both powers, especially to Japan, and asked
for Information regarding Somallland and
Thibet, and the slturftfon In South Africa,
to which, he pointed out, no reference had
been made in the speech from the throne.

Lord I.andsdowne. on .America.
Lord Lansdowne responded. He con
gratulated the Lords on the conclusion of

tration treaties, deplored .the eltuatlon In
the near and far east and expressed the
hope that a paclflo -solutloh of the (differ

Commenting on tha. Alaska decision. Lord
Lansdowne said that- although . the tri
bunal's disposal , of, the Alaska difficulty
was not. strictly speaking,, arbitral, its ef
forts illustrated the possibility of settling

ences, , The condition, of ..Alaska ' might
have brought Great Britain Into a serious

Coming to the fiscal question. Lord Lans

Mr. Chamberlain .was 'not the policy' of ths

DIDN'T BELIBVB
That Coffee Was tha Real Trouble.
Some people flounder around and take
everything that's -recommended to Uiem,

"For 25 years I waa troubled with my

but I didn't suspect that was the cause. 1
doctored with good doctors and got no

SUIT OYER MRS,, JONES' WILL
Contest Begins with Hosts of Heirs
svnd Attorneys la the County
Coart.
The litigation over tha codicil and will
of Bophronja Jones' -wife of Omaha's first
postmaster, has been renewed before Judgo
Vlnsonhaler. The codicil is attacked on
the ground that Mrs. Jones was mentally
incapable of devising a. just and proper
instrument at the timo this was Orawn.
The will also Is attacked on the grounds
that It does not afford a Just distribution
of the property. The heirs to tl-e estate
are numerous, but no mora so than the
lawyers ' who were present with their
forces arrayed against each other and
prepared to fight a long and urgent battle
for their clients:'" " '
The heirs nil are represented,1 wltri 'one'J
exception, by Judge C. A.' Baldwin. On
tha other side there la 'an array of legal
talent that would indicate a desire to leave
no, stone unturned In the' effort, to treak
tbe will and codicil drawn ' up by Mrs.
Jonet. When the case was called Judge
Baldwin protested against the Introduction
of certain affidavits on the ground that he
had not been notified of the tact that such
Instruments were to be Introduced Into the
case and Judge Vlnsonhaler granted a stay
In tho proceedings until this morn
ing at which time the case will be called
and disposed of ,
