Now there is nothing else to be done but to keep that agreement. It is of course true that this promise applies only to those parents or r latives who ask to have such trans- fers made. There will be many whe will take the same view that Colonel and Mrs. Roosevelt did regarding their son. They will prefer to let the limb stay where it fell, but there will be others who will look to the government to bring home the bodies of their dear omes that they may be buried where their graves can receive attention and their visits. Sentiment varies of course in regard to this matter, but that is all the more reason why the wishes of those who want the bodies brought heme should be complied with. France may for health and other reasons decree that the bedies of its own soldiers can- not be transferred within three years. but in view of the service that has been rendered in its behalf it can hardly be expected to stand in the way of the transter in view of the pledge that has been made by this byrst,—Beattle land statiens, a reasonable distance | sterage bubble should made evident that the senators bhad i apart, are received on an airship or |-Fest-Inteiligencer. been giving the matter close study and they made it plain that it was their purpose to clear up any mis- understanding at this time ratherthan after the treaty has been adopted, “'and it raust have been made evident to the president that much more would Fave been gained in hastening the ac-: tion on the ratification of the treaty had such a conference been held upon his return from Europe and the sen- ate ‘been consulted or kept in touch with the steps as they progressed ‘lacross the water.
