THE PEACE CONFERENCE
GENEVA CONVENTION APPLIED
TO NAVAL WAR.
Germany and France Not Enthusiastic
But Cooperate in Framing the Arbi-
tration Schedule.

THE HAGUE. June 13.-The Red
Cross subcommittee of the Peace Con-
ference has reported in favor of apply
ing the Geneva convention to naval
warfare. This is regarded as a highly
important advance.
Captain \. T. Mahan of the United
States delegation will on Thursday
submit an amendment defining the
status of shipwrecked persons and
wounded men rescued accidentally by
neutral vessels.
The preamble indorses the applica-
ton to naval warfare of the princi-
pies of the Geneva Convention of 1864
and the supplementary clauses of 1868.
Endeavoring to reconcile the various
conflicting interests, it recognizes the
necessity of not hampering belliger-
ents in Legitimate action, while modi-
flying unnecessary suffering. These
considerations met with the approba-
ton of all the powers, especially Great
Britain and the United States
The adaptation of the principles of
the Geneva Convention to naval war
fare is regarded as the first real
achievement of the conference. The
Brussels committee held a short ses-
sion today, reporting progress.
In view of the statement published
in the United States that Frederick
Hollis of the american delegation to
the Peace Conference had cabled to
the State Department at Washington
that Germany was opposed to arbitra-
ton in principle. Mr.. Hollis, declared
that there was absolutely no founda-
ton for such statement.
"There is no doubt" said Mr.. Hollis.
that the Germans, in this respect re-
sembling the French and some other
European nations, are not as enthusi-
astic in support of the arbitration
principle as are others who should
take the lead in the matter. but the
German delegates are cooperating
Loyalty in framing the arbitration
schedule, and nothing has occurred
which would Justify the publication
of any statement as to German hos
tility of arbitration.
I'm view of the misleading state
ments published in America regarding
the course of the drafting committee
of the arbitration committee and the
exact position of the American pro-
posals, the American plan for a per-
manent tribunal, which has been cor
rectly set forth in the American pa
pers, has been referred with other
similar plans to the drafting commit
tee. This committee will report to the
full committee on arbitration the ex-'
act text of all the reports submitted, as
the drafting committee shall provisi-
onally recommend. The committee on
arbitration and afterward the con-
ference will finally pass on the various
projects. The fact that in the drafting
committee the English proposals have
been used as thea basis of discussion
does not indicate in the least the
abandonment of any plans. 1t is not
expected that the drafting commit
tee will be ready to report to the com
mittee on arbitration for week or
ten days, and all statements regard
ing it's work or attitude are mere sur
mise"
Sir Julian Pauncefote,, head of the
British delegation, emphatically con-
frmed the accuracy of the statement
of Mr.. Hollis.

SAN FERNANDo's WONDER.
One Filipino City That the Troops
Found Clean.

Especial correspondence of The Starr.
MANILA, May 15-The present quar-
tiers of the Twentieth Kansas, San Fer
nando, are the best we have ever had
outside of Manila. San Fernando is a
well built city, claiming many fine pub
lie and private buildings, and different
from all other towns captured-was
clean.
AS regards the situation, what can
one say? When people have been
chased and killed and scattered, and
their very strongest positions aban-
doned at our advance, and you know
that they are hungry and naked, and
that some seven hundred thousand nom
combatants are being driven with them
in this ignominious retreat, and that
by no possible reasoning on the news of
a single victory can they have the
slightest hope of success. When one
knows all this and then finds them APP
parently just as eager to keep up the
fray, it seems a waste of time trying tc
figure when they will quit, or what the
final outcome will be.
The volunteers are just as eager as
ever to get home and grab every bit OF
news with eagerness that promises theil
early departure.

The cleanest, brightest safest and really
u the long run, the cheapest and best light
for use in the family residence, is the mean
descent electric light. Safe; nothing could
ne safer. A few days ago prominent gem
t.eman of Honolulu came rushing down to
the office of the Electric Company and said:
"Give Inc figures for wiring my house. and
want 1t done at once; no more lamps for me.
Last night a lamp tipped over and it came
10 near setting fire to the house and burning
oy children and 1 take no more risks"
This Is the sentiment Of quite number In
She past few weeks, who have ordered their
houses fitted with the perfect light.
Just think it over and make up your mind

WHY SOME People ARE POOR.

Bad management keeps more people
in poor circumstances than any other
one cause. To be successful one must
look ahead and plan ahead so thar
when a favorable opportunity presents
itself he is ready to take advantage OF
it, A little forethought will also save
much expense and valuable time. A
prudent and careful man will keep a
bottle of Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy in the house,
the shiftless fellow will wait until nee
essity compels it and then ruin his best
horse going for doctor and have big
doctor bill to pay, besdes one pays out
25 cents the other is out hundred DOT
lars and then wonders why his neighboI
is getting richer while he is getting
poorer. For sale by all dealers and
druggists. Benson, Smith e. Company
