WASHINGTON, December 11th Senator Lodge read the Four-Power Treaty which ruas as follows:
Artiola I.-The parties agree to respect their rights relative to their insular possessions and insular dominions in the Pacifc. If there should develop between any of the parties controversy arising out of any Paciic question involving the said rights, which is not satisfactorily settled by diplomacy and is likely to affect the harmonious accord now happily subsist- ing between them, they shall invite the parties to a joint conference to which the whole subject will be referred for con- aidetation and adjustment.
APPROVED
Mr. Hughes, wreathed in smiles, finally spoke. Ho doubted if in all the world there could be found a diplomatie document of such great import, couched in such simple terms. He firmly believed that when the Agreement took effect they would have gone farther to securing enduring peace than anything that had yet been done.
Senator Lodge afterwards declared that although it had only been initialled by the heads of the delegations the Treaty had been approved to all intents and pur

The Chinese delegation having assented, the resolu- tion was adopted unanimously amid cheers.

the Powers should agree not to conclude be tween themselves any treaty or agreement directly affecting China, the Pacific, or the Far East without previously notify ing China and giving her opportunity to participate.
MR. BALFOUR'S SYMPATHY. Mr. Balfour expressed sympathy with the broad aspirations of Dr. Kou, and emphasised the Committee's desire to re- move as far as possible abnormal condi tions in China and to bring relations with China into the normal course of policy regulating relations between civilised states.
He thought it was the hope of all present to place China in posi tion to defead her neutrality so that she would no longer be a prey to acquisitive Powers..

Mr. Balfour thought this more likely to be attained by dealing with China's difficulties one by one, rather than by adopting the broad principle proposed by Dr. Koo.
STABLE CHINESE ADMINISTRA
TION NEEDED.... Another mathod, which ought to be still more fruitful, must depend upon China herself. All the Conference could do way to ace that no undue limitation was placed upon China's sovereign independ ence and to give all the help, in its power towards the cration of a pare, vigoreni administration.
