nearly 200 books and articles have been

mittee state that they cannot for a mo-

missal of a teacher even if some of his
opinions should in some quarters be re-

would feel themselves unworthy of the

In closing the report the committee

Chicago, Sept. 1S.-The transconti-
mental lines are still engaged in their
free-for-alI talk. the outcome of which,
it is hoped by some of the lines, will
result in the formation of the Trans
continental Passenger association.
The meeting today resulted, as all
the other sessions have resulted up to
date-in nothing.
The main difficulty in the way Of
forming the association, with the ques-
ton of differentials again ignored, is
that the bulk of California business is
second-class traffic, which can be di-
verified by means of a small differen-
tial. The f1rst-class passenger business
amounts to very little, compared with
the second-class, and the roads cannot
afford to ignore the latter. At present
there seems to be no chance whatever
that the lines will succeed in forming
the association.

Vice-President Smalley occupied the
chair and President j. E.. Thompson

patriotic, liberal and concise, leaving no
phase of the question untouched. The
speaker referred to the two greatest men

adjustment of steamship lines as prob

remarks upon. the treaty, Mr.. Rowland
was applauded, and speaking of war be-
tween the United States and Canada as
already Verging on the impossible, he
urged the formation of an international
court to decide every possible question
that can arise in the future.
Other delegations made comments on
Mr.. Howland'S address and the uncer-

treaty was especially noted. The con
vention decided to make report and
recommendation for an international
court.
Delegate Cooley, of Chicago, read a pa
per on canal construction. Mr.. Cooley
spoke of one underlying theory of water
ways in tlts continent, viz: That Chi
cage was $500 miles from the Gulf of
Mexico and loo from the gulf of St.
Lawrence, and the ultimate plan of con-
tinent waterways would be right angle
with Chicago at the corner. He said
Chicago was doing canal work for two
thirds of the coast of Suez, and west
ern cities would sooner have 26 foot
water ways than 20 feet, even if it in
volved some delay. The convention took
a recess until 3 %. m
