Minister Schenck WAS Scrcnadcd tonight
II his residence by his ohio friends, who
warmed 10 the number Of hundreds. He
made no speech, simply expressing his graf
l,uQc for their courtesy. No one expected
he would say aught Of the Alabama claims.
Though has already been said. They are
now riDc for settlement, and England is
only awaiting the bill.
There i considerable comment in all
quarters at the unprecedented closeness
about the Internal Revenue Office. There
j. ne remedy. however, rs the army i III

there complain in their distress that neither

Office 10 such military status rs it now oc-

The weather, changed from its extreme
cold TO hay sunshine and mellow warmth,
i perfectly delightful over head-under

avenue is river OF mud. and the side streets
are even worse. What dire forcbodlng-
finger about the possibility Of such weather
