F..-.Iustlce Hand's mldreiis on "ln
nmut'oiial Arbitration" at lust night's
meeting of the board of trade wus con
sidered worthy of being heurd on an
other occusion und by a large audit nee.
When he hud linlshed a voto of thanks
was tendered bii'i and President May
and Secretary Atheiton were chosen a
committer to arrange for a public
meeting, probably not until autumn.
The address was bused upon the pro
ceedings of Hie National Arbitration
conference which nu t In Washing! in
April anil 21 to further the Fnlted
Stutes government's advocacy of inter
national arbitration, especially with
Ureal I'.rltaln. Judge Hand s remarks
nearly in tull, appear below.

INVITATION ACCKPTKD.
An Invitation was received from the
Pittston board Inviting the Seranton
board as u body to attend the opening
of the new Lehigh Valley railroad depot
at Pittston lumoriuw ufiernoon. The
Invitation wus accepted and President
May, Secretary Atheiton and H. K.
Puiue were appointed formal delegates.
Much controversy was occasioned by
an Invitation to send delegutes to the
National Commercial Tariff convention
in Detroit, Juno fi. The organisation's
object is to ellmlnlate tarirt' from poll
ties. The Seranton board several
months ago voted Its approval of the
object without endorsing the organiza
tion, about which little or nothing wns
known. The Invitation read last night
was from the executive committee,
among which appeared the name "W.
A. .May, President of the Seranton
Hourd "of Trade." It was not with
President Muy's consent that his name
was used. When this fact was an
nounced It threw coid water on the
sending of a delegate nnd the Invitation
was finally "received and action post
poned." Judge Hand prefaced his remarks by
reading the resolutions udopted at the
conference, and by a statement of the
character and importance of that gath
ering which comprised 400 delegate
representing forty-six states and terri
tories. He continued: "The highest
reach of jurisprudence Is found in the
two countries who speak the Anglo
Saxon tongue. It was not until within
the present century thut the wager of
buttle was abolished in tne reign 'if
(Jeotge III. Although Its absurdity
had brought it into disuse wager of
battle, which was a physical combat in
the presence of the Judges, of the plain
tiff and defendant or their champions,
was a kind of sacrilegious appeal to Ood
based on physical vigor. It had for Its
excuse the superstitious Idea that when
two contestants submitted their dis
pute about the right of property to be
pummelled out with clubs and batons
Providence would bo forced to decld
the contest in favor of the right, and the
evidence or It was that the victor was
the most successful in pummelling his
creditor or debtor the most to a Jellv.
And still tho Judges sot to decide not the
justice of either claim upon principles
oi law anu justice, out upon the fact
as to which had whipped.

power as arbitrator to assist in the
adjustment?
HKTTER FOK HUMANITY.
"T nrouoHo to answer this question
brlelly In tho light of history, experi
ence and present prospects nnd facts.
This question involves the oth'T, great
er nnd more momentum question:
Would It lie better for humanity the
world oeer that all wnrs shall cease
and the reign cf peaceable rurfUlts, ed
ucation, religion rclence, art and gen
eral prosperity be ushered in? And If
It would l:i It practicable? I am not
unmindful of the glories of war in a
Ju3t cnitss high honor, heroin deeds,
unselfish nnd Oodllke courage, un
lllnchlng integrity, wrought-Pon char
acter, noble manhood and devoted pa
triritlsm. Hut will these to shut out?
Let ivt give all honor to our Wash
Ingtons, Grants, Bhermani, but they
have been the strongest against war
because they know its horrors. Crant
said: 'Though 1 have been trained as
a soldier, uud have participated in
many battles, there never was a time
when. In my opinion, some way could
not have been found of preventing the
drawing of the sword. 1 look forward
to an epoch when a court recognised
hv all nations will settle international
difference instead of keeping large
standing armies, as they do in Kurope.'
tieneral Sherman said that war was
barbarism that could not be refined.
Have we any less heroes in Webster
who. in his conlllct with Hayne, saved
this Union from dissolution, or In Lin
coln, or Sherman, the statesman, who
stands today par excellence a hero for
patriotic M-rvice In restoring specie
payments in an honest currency?"
The speaker then detailed brlelly th;'
history of the arbitration movement,
showing that the Fnlted Slates had
always stood for that principle in pref
erence to war. He presented a list of
St) .successful arbitrations within the
past century. of these the Fnlted
Slates wus a purty In 17 cases, and hnd
been arbitrator In 7 cases. From none
of these arbitrations had war ensued.
Itesolutlons favorable to arbitration
have passed both the American congress
and the Itritlsh commons. Tho present
Movement simply seeks to eslubllsh
this principle on a permanent basis.
PKKSKNTri Dl FFICFLTI KS
The soeaker next read extracts from,
the speeches of some of the more prom
inent delegates at the Washington ci.n
entlon. F.x-Secretary of State Foster,
for exani'de, admittedthat compulsory
urbitratlon presented dilllcultles, but
thought that among peoples who pro
fess to be governed by Christian prin
ciples a better method of settling dif
ferences' ought to prevail than the
bloody arbitrament of war. Kdward
Atkinson showed by statistics how
frightful a lax nisin Kurope's resources
bi Imposed by the unnecessary main
tenance In Kuropean countries of vast
standing armies. Judge Hand next
read the cordial messages of approval
which came to the convention from
eminent divines and publicists who
could not be present. Among these was
Cardinal (iibbons. In conclusion the
judge said:
What would tie the result it univer
sal International law and a permanent
tribunal should settle all controversies
und the anneal to arms be rendered
unnecessary? In the lirst place the
evils of war weuld cease and tho tri
umphs of oeace reign supreme. Pence
hath Its victories no less than war.
All the evils of war would be done away
with. We are apt to think that the
only cost of war Is in Its pecuniary ex
penditures. Its destruction of property
and the loss of human life. Hut those
ure the lenst In the sum total of the
costs, the miseries and the ruin entailed
by any way however Just. We think the
late Civil war was to un a holy war.
It was. It preserved this glorious
union; It abolished slavery, and wiped
out u curse and stain on our boasted lib
erty and a running sore In unlversnl
conscience. For this It was worth all
It cost. Hut thut is not the question.
The question Is, suppose this country,
North and South, had accepted Abra
ham Lincoln's thought and suggestion
to iiurchuse tho sluves by a national
Issue of bonds and a national debt.
What would we -have saved? In money
we would have saved more than two
billions of the national debt. We would
have saved a million of the best, most
active, disinterested workers to the
country; the desolation of hundreds of
thousands of homes and broken henrts.
We would have saved more than this;
we would huve saved all the losses, the
hard experiences, the bitter fruits, both
of tho war and the reconstruction peri
od. We would huve saved an Immense
value of high-toned nnd needed states
manship. We would have saved many
ofthe fatal errors which the loss of this
statesmanship has entailed upon us
and (from which we are still suffering'.
WK SFFFEK FKOM WAR
"This country hud gained something
in state craft and political economy In
Its history before the war. The only
drawback and skeleton In the closet
was human slavery. The war came
and we suffer from It toduy. Two sep
arate banking llrnis, one in New York
and another In Philadelphia, huve esti
mated that in the last three years of our
government the losses to the people
have been more than three times the
cost of the Civil war in dollars and
cents. What has caused this? Some
attribute it to a change of administra
tion, some tu the impossibility of real
izing the benefits of that change of ad
ministration. . It will be found that in
the Inst analysis it Is the cost we a'ru
stiil paying of the Civil war. War en
tails evils ufter its close ten fold greater
than Its bloodshed und its pecuniary
cost, it nlways loaves n black damning
trail of distrust, Inlldellty, materialism,
crazy cranks in political economy and
devilish hate ami controversy. Out of
the war has grown every craze one can
think of. greenbackism and paper cur
rency us a foundation for tlnuncliil
credit; Populism und the silver mania
of the South and the loss of nil her
homes and property and statesmen. In
tho fast-growing West a crop of un
tried, unstudied, unfledged politicians
hus grown up full of theories nnd hate
uud experimental motives. The cry
has been, 'Oh for statesmen!" We have
heard it for years. We had thein once
by the dozen where now we have them
singly. Where have they gone? Tho
most of them are lying under granite
monuments. North and South. It Is
true we huve kept some statesmen, at
the North, who have tried to stem the
tide, how successfully we all know.
( leiitlenitn. when we gel over the civil
war and statesmen urlse und scholars
ami when reason sits enthroned again'
and we have back our Henry Claya
and Alexander Stcvenses from the
South und multiply our Northern Weh
