IS NOT RECEIVED
Washington Hears Nothing from
England Concerning Treaty
Amendments

Washington, March 9-Nothing has
yet been heard from the British gov
ernment touching the amendment to
the Hay-Pnuncefote treaty.
In view Of the fact that even if a
new treaty was created to take the
place of the Hay-Pauneefote treaty it
could not be ratified and become effect
i've much before the end of the present
year, owing to the absence of the COM
missioners. It is now suggested that
there need be no particular hurry
about beginning these negotiations.
AS Lord Pauncefote is soon to leave
Washington OH a vacation trip, it is
possible nothing will be undertaken
towards the making of a new treaty
before his return to Washington from
that trip.

WRECKERS ON TRIAL
Jury D%eliberating in Case OF
Mrs. Nation and Other
Smashers.

Wichita, Kas., March 9-The case
of Mrs. Carrie Nation, Lucy W. White,
Julia Edmonds and Lizzie Monroe,
charged with wrecking the interior of
John Heiders' saloon, January 81, was
given to the jury this afternoon and
after celebrating two hours no YER
dict was reported. The attorneys for
both sides agreed that no verdict
would be reported and the judge re-
called the jurymen and instructed
them to bring in a sealed verdict
which is to be opened Monday morn
ing.
1t is believed the jury will fail to
agree.
In his instructions Judge Bale said
it was not proper to determine wheth-
er or not the property smashed by
Mrs. Nation and her followers was
used for saloon practices or other IL
legal purposes, but to determine
whether property had been destroyed
as charged.

Nebraska Geyser Belches Forth in New
York.

York.
New York, March 9-William J.
Bryan arrived here from Buffalo to-
day. He said in an interview:
1T looks as if the Nicaragua canal
project had fallen through; trans-con-
%tinental railroads and the Mckinley
administration are responsible. The
railways are afraid that it water was
used for the canal there would not be
enough left for their stocks.
eff the republican party makes no
more progress in the next four years
than it did in the last four, it will
soon reach a finish.
"This big steel combination is but
another illustration of the trusts we
caught in the last campaign. The
tendency is to still further and larger
consultations of capital.
"The deadlock in the Nebraska leg
islature? Oh, yes, that is easily adj
justed. You see there are only two
senatorships at the disposal Of the
state and there are more than two
railroads. Each railroad can't have a
senator, therefore"

UNDISTURBED BY SPEECHES
Downing Street Cares Nothing for
Senatorial Oratorics and
Holds Fast.

London, March 9-The reply Of the
British government to the note con-
veying the amendments of the United
States senate to the Hay-Pauncefote
treaty should be formally delivered by
the British ambassador at Washington
to Secretary Hay within a fewsdays.
The foreign Office here did not
originally contemplate delaying the
British reply until now. The plan
appears to have been to transmit the
answer previous to the date on which
the treaty lapsed which, according to
the British view of the case, would
have put the onus of it's lapsing on the
senate.
AS previously set forth in these dis
patches the main object of the British
government throughout has been to
make an entirely new arrangement.
At no stage of the proceedings has
there been any inclination to accept
the senate's amendments. 1t is under
stood here that the nature of the Brit
ish governments reply has already
been informally communicated to Sec
rotary Hay.
Great Britain has no intention of
modifying or abrogating the Clayton
Bulwer treaty without a satisfactory
guild pro quo That treaty, according
to the foreign office view of the case,
remains as much in force now as the
day it was signed. The speeches made
in the senate do not disturb Downing
street. They are dismissed with the
regard that treaties cannot be abro-
gated without the consent of both the
contracting parties" There is, how

RESULTS ARE SHOWING.
Adjustment of Canteen Held Responsible
for Riot.

for Riot.
Chicago, March 9-Army officers at
the headquarters OF the department. Of
the lakes express the opinion that last
nights rioting at Highwood, neal Fort
Sheridan, during which a number of
soldiers were injured, was due entirely
to the adjustment Of the army can
teen. General Otis, in command of
the department, said today:
II was strongly opposed to the army
canteen when first proposed, but from
investigation I found that it worked
SO much better than I expected that l
was compelled, to endorse it. Under
that system the profits went for deli
cacies for the mems tables. Now the
men spend more and the profits go to
the n Of private gin mills"

the university of Buffalo. A COM

The waiter said: eft is too early
to make predictions, but mark you
we'll, that when that time ONE the
name of Bryan may be heard again.
That is all I can say at this time"
The students cheered as he retired.

RUSSIAN DIPLOMACY GAINS
NOTABLE VICTORY.
MOVES TOO LATE
Cars Government Is in Full and
Absolute Possession Of
Manchuria.

Berlin, March 9-The Tagesblatt's
correspondent who has been travelling
in northern Manchuria, Mongolia and
on the borders Of Siberia and China
for Il year and whose reports hitherto
tion. has furnished his paper with a
long letter which is published today,
containing interesting details regard
ing the Russo Chinese agreement on
the subject Of Manchuria, Mongolia
and Turkestan. He says he is abso-
lutely certain that the published YER
sion of this agreement is in no way
near the actual truth.
He then proceeds TO give facts con.
corning the proposed internal admin
istration of that part of China, demon
strating that Manchuria will became
all integral cart of Russia, more so
than even Bokahara. In regard to
Mongolia, he says there is no doubt a
pr%otectorate has been established, as
this is evidenced by the hosting of the
Russian flags everywhere, the
thorough organization of the district,
the establishment of tax collecting
offices and the opening of branches Of
Russo-Chinese banks with no one but
Russian officials in charge. All this
virtually has taken place during the
past six months and began before the
boxer outbreak. The clearest evil
dence, however, is i'll fact an army
order issued by General Grodekof to
the Siberian troops. in which the gen.
eral said: "You have nobly fulfilled
your task of defending a line 1900
kilometres long on the frontiers Of the
Russian empire; from Urga, Mongolia,
to Kho Shun and have thrown back
the enemy across this threatened
line.'
Besides establishing direct communi-
cation with L'Hassa, Thibet, where
Dalailane scored a victory for Russia
by an immense bride Of silver, direct
telegraph communication now also ex-
lists between the Russians and Kultja,
and those in China even reaching
Sian Flu, where the Chinese court has
been sojourning, by way of Barkcol,
Khami, Stoochow. and Lalohew.
Without the knowledge of either the
Europeans or the Americans or their
Japanese allies, this correspondent
says, Prince Tuan went to Kan Su
province, in the northwestern portion
Of the Chinese empire bordering on
Mongolia, where the best Chinese
troops are formed from the 5000, 900
of moselms, which troops are firmly
loyal to Prince Tuan, and refuse to
serve either against the allies or for
the Chinese court.
Perhaps the most important infor-
nation furnished by the Tagesblatt
correspondent is that the Russian gov
eminent has caused to be printed, dis
tributed and posted on walls through
out Trans-B aikalia, a decree ordering
for March 10, a general rehabilitation
of troops in Baikalia, because 'sthis is
rendered necessary in order to put
down new disturbances which have
broken out in China (meaning there
by, partly the Kan Su rebellion under
Prince Tuan.)

that a satisfactory arrangement will
eventually be arrived at, though it is
scarcely thought it could be got into
the requisite shape in time for discus
sion at the extra session Of the senate.
Moreover, there is a freely expressed

Money-Its Use and Abuse.

.
Rev. Gratz last Sunday night preach
ed on 'sMoney, It's Use and Abuse,'
and the sermon was pronounced the
best that Mr.. Gratz has preached since
coming here. He took for his text
Ecclesiastes, 1913 Money answer
eth all things" The speaker said:
This is tremendous truth. Money
has never had as much power as it has
to-day. More potent in working mar
wells than Aladden's lamp of old. Its
magic will open all doors, pry into
every secret take you into any land,
get for you kingdom and make you
king.
THE proverb current among politi-
clans Every man has his price,
indicates how much power money is
| supposed to have, but the speaker did
not believe this proverb. He believed
there we're men to whom principle,
home, lands and native land, were so
dear that they could not be bribed
but why has money such power?
What is money? Political economists
say it is medium of exchange. The
secret of its power is the fact that
there is something human in it, Money
is myself and yourself stored up, and
put into portable form.
"A general principle recognized
everywhere is that wherever power is
delegated, the person to whom the
power is given is held responsible So
with the handling of money. God, the
Giver of all Good, will hold men respon-
sible for the way in which they use
every penny of money entrusted to
them.''
The speaker showed how and where
it payed to give to the church and to
aid church work.
1.-THE way a man uses his money is
an Indication of his character. Art,
learning and talents are being conse-
Grated to the work of saving men.
We yet need to bring our wealth to the
foot of the cross and consecrate this
money that answereth all things"
