TWO MEN HURT IN A COLLISION } oo ‘The treaty negotiated by the Powers at The Hague last July for the pacific settioment of disputes between o ns has been sent to the senate. Accompanying it is a declaration prohibiting the launching of explosives from balloons. There is sorne doubt as to whether the treaty will be ratified. It har Ro mandatory power, and it will doubtless be asserted by some that it fs unfair and im the nature of an “entangling alliance Moreover, it Will be asked why there should be an agreement between the United States and certain Burepean powers to the exclusion of republics on our Own continent. England is now using five-inch lyddite shells. A ‘single one of them falling into a compact body would kill 0 men. Not only this, but it has been shown that at the battic of Omdurman the use of these infer- nal explosives caused large numbers of dervishes to be killed by suffo- cation, while hundreds of birds dropped dead upon the battlefield trom the same cause. ‘As long @s the country which claims to be the leading tion of Europe persists in using (hese awful explosives, @umdum bullets, the outlook for peace looks rather dismal, We may go through the ceremony of » peace treaty, but what can de do?
