THE WASHINGTON CONFERENCE.
Washington, Dec. 14.. With the Alliance signed the Conference is devoting itself] this week mainly to naval problems and the greatest 'intereit cen- tres daily on the discusalons of the "Big Three." Complete mystery, however, surrounds the proceedings though the impressions gained from sources near them indicate that satisfactory progress is being made.
Japan obviously attaches much importance to the retention of the Mitsu and the question of fortifications on the Pacific. Indeed If she obtains her aspirations on the two paints her attitude on the ratio is liable to be far more elastic than hitherts. The Jap-| anese are reported to have offered a compromise whereunder Bri- tain and the United States would be allowed to keep one or mare of their newer battleships if she is permitted to retain the Mitan. While she adamantly declines to consent to the surrender of control of the Manchurian railways, Japan is displaying a disposition to meet the views of China on the Shantung question. The Chinese and Japanese spent almost the whole of yesterday discussing, the railway question, sabsequently intimating that progress had been made.
Britain is still pursuing the submarine question. Although he has abandoned hope of total! abolition, Mr. Balfour is reserving two cards, Arstly, the considerable reduction of ninety thousand tons proposed by the American scheme, and alternatively, the limita=" tion of submarine construction to small and purely defensive types.

He earnestly hoped that the agreement will end the! strife of centuries, and Ireland as a free partner in the Common-i wealth nations formine the British Empire. will senare ful?! ment of her national ideals.
