"The pnst year of Christian Endeavor
work has been year OF remarkable pros
perity. year signally marked by the
fnvor OF God. Christian Endeayor has
SO largely occupied the field that the phe-
nomenal growth recorded in the early
years of the movement cam OF be expected.
Nevertheless, the growth has been very
considerable and the accession Of 100000
to our ranks within the last IL months is
no small addition.
u recently made q journey to the West
Indies, which was full of encouragement
and hope found In the Island Of Jamai.
ca deep and intelligent interest In the
movement In Cuba, too, found the be-
ginnings Of Christian Endeavor and a
hopeful spirit and outlook for the future.
Our British fellow Endeavorers arc
looking forward with great anticipation
to next years exodus to London. In Ger
many and France and Scandinavia the
work has made considerable advance. In
Spain, in spite of the distraction of the
war and the natural antipathy to things
American, the societies have all held their
own and have even increased in number.
Russia which year ago was the only /
country without Christian Endsavor, has
now been invaded by the movement, and
We hear of our society almast within the

The Rockefeliers' Modest Desires,

Malone, N. Y, July 6.-Since the ac-
QUESTION by the Rockefellers of two
immense tracts of land in the Adiron-
dacks there is much speculation as to
how far these purchases may be OK
tended. Their present Adirondack
holdings include several lakes and
rivers. Both tracts have been put into
a private reserve. Their first purchase
included some $4,000 acres in the town
of Santa Clara. On this property they
are erecting numerous cottages. guides
quarters and boat houses, involving an
outlay of $750.0OO. The second pur-
chase was the property known as the
Dabar mountain tract, in the town Of
Duane, about $4,000 acres. 1t is cur
rently reported here that the Roclse-
fellers have made offers for the entire
Mecham Lake hotel property. compgis-
ing several thousand acres, and also
for the Paul Smith property and forest
lands.

An AMERICAN NJ
The Hague Peace Conferrees YiJ
to Our Commissioners.
AsPEoIAL CONFERENCE FAVORED

At Which the Question Of Private
| Property at Sea in Time OF War
VIII Be Dealt with-Secretary Hay
Gratifed.
The Hague, July 6.-The American
delegates scored great success yes
terday in obtaining from the peace con-
ference a unanimous vote in favor Of
having the question of private proporrs
ty at sea in time Of war dealt with at
a special conference to be summoned
hereafter. Much diplomatic manage
ment was necessary, and many obsta-
cles had to be surmounted before this
result was reached. The resolution
was carried without opposition, but
with reservations on the part Of Great
Britain, France and Russia. 8S
Washington, July 6.-The news from
The Hague announcing the vote Of
the peace conference in favor of hold
ing a special conference hereafter to
discuss the question of the freedom
from seizure of private property at sea
in time of war Is source Of genuine
satisfaction to the administration. Fho
American delegates had more interest.
in this question, perhaps, than in any
other before the conference.
There have been times during ses-
sions of the peace conference at which
1t appeared that this subject would bs
passed over without favorable action,
and the officials had almost given up
hope of anything in that direction be-
ing accomplished. Secretary Hay was
shown copy Of the dispatch last
night. He regarded it as a substantial \
victory for the advanced position the
American government has taken on
this matter. The question Of the
freedom from seizure Of private prop I.
erty at sea. belonging to the subjects
Of the belligerent nations, the secre-
tary said. was not in the list Of sub Z
iects enumerated in the czar's call for 4
he conference, but it was embodied In {
he instructions given to the American
delegates. The subject, the secretary
said, is one in which the American y,
government has always taken the q
greatest interest and a most decided
stand ever since the foundation of the
government The United States re-
used to sign the convention at Paris
,ack In the fifties because the articles
greed upon did not contain declara-
ion exempting from capture the pri-
rate property at sea belonging to the Z
ubjects of the belligerent nations, and
n the presidents last message to con-
,ress he urged that provision be made
or calling a conference Of the powers
# the world to consider the question.
Bills were introduced in both houses
having this object in view, but no
lnal action was taken on them.
