question of annexing additional territo-
~ and committee has been at work
looking over the territory which 1T is
proposed to include IN the city limits. AT
the meeting Monday night the commit
tee was not quite ready to report and
the matter went over. Tuesday after
noon, however, word came to Mayor
Jones and to DR.. Harris, of the special
committee in charge of the matter, that
the residents of the rapidly growing sec
ton west of the present city limits had
held one meeting and were preparing to
l'r.corporate the town of West Marshall
a council meeting was Immediately
called, but as no preparation had been
made it was l0oiclock before City Ehsi-
peer Bremnercouldfo formulate dcscrip-
ton of the territory and a resolution
could be drawn up. When this was done
the resolution was put thru without a
Dissenting vote and the date for the spe-
clal election to vote on the question Was
fixed for Monday. June "a.

located six miles east of Fort Dodge.
This land belonged originally to- a parcel!
sold by the government to the I)es

which was attempting to promote a
scheme whereby the Des Moines river
could be made navigable between Coon
Forks and Fort Dodge The scheme iell
thru however, and the navigation COM
rany sold it to railway company that
WAS figuring on promoting road out
OF Fort Dodge. This also fell thru, it
seems and the land was transferred by
The railway company to settlers. among
whom was Mr. Kelley. About nine
gears or so ago the government took
the land, because of the fact that the
navigation company had not complied
with the provisions of its contract. TIE
settlers then put in claims for the lni-
l;rovements they had put on the land
acquired and the $1,000 that Kelley re-
ceives is to remunerate him for his im-
movements
Mr.. Kelley received day or two ago
a voucher for the money but there was
some little defect in it and it was sent
back to Washington for correction.

Chicago, Dec. 20-The Evanston pO-
lice, with renewed hope of success in
solving one of tse-most mysterious alb
ductions or disappearance cases Of re-
cent years, today issued new circulars
offering a reward for information con-
corning the whereabouts Of Miss Flor

Miss Ely is given, but it is stated tina.
the boy is in all proba bility dressed in
the garb of a girl.
Their non-sUeeess in obtaining valu-
able information concerning the pair
hitherto is now attributed to the fact
that the police had been asked to look
for woman and a boy. This new tack
in the search is due to the discovery of
the clothing worn by Miss Ely and the
boy July 10, the day they disappeared.
A dog dragged from under a depot
platform a bundle of clothing which

as having belonged to their son. A

that Miss Ely took advantage of the

ed at the suggestion of President RoOse-
welt. who took special interest in the ex-
petition of Reyes and his two brothers,
one Of whom died of fever and the other
was devoured by canpibals.
LazO Arriaga of Guatemala presented
a resolution asking the conference to in
terest itself in the price of coffee, with
view to its regulation. He said that
periodical upheavals Of the coffee mar
ket were cause of economical and pO-
lltlcal disturbances, and even revolutions
in the Central American republics, and
he thought the conference could find q
remedy.
A proposal of the late Duarte Pereira,
delegate OF Brazil, for the appointment
of committee of juTists to c0dify the
public and private international law OF
the Americas was then taken UP. The
amendment Of Mr.. Leger of Hayti to the
erect that European governments be in
ytted to share in this work, was voted
down unanimously. In his remarks in
support of his motion, he said he could
not understand the object of the per-
sistent exclusion of Europe. whose ex-
perience and assistance ought rot to be
overlooked. But in the voting Mr. Leger
proved TO be the only delegate fav0ring
the interference of Europe in this matter.
Mr.. Leger was cOmbatted in a strong
speech by Mr.. Labarra of Mexico. He
said that the conference and its work
must remain Pan-American. With slight
notifications the proposal of the late
Duarte Pereira for the appointment of a
committee of jurists to codify interna-
tiolal law was this afternoon accepted
