Would Take Too Much Time.


Another reason that animates these
cabinet officers in this inclination To
ward acceptance is their conviction
that an inordinate length of time
would be consumed II the issue IS
taken before The Hague tribunal Thu
machinery is sufficient, but ponderous
and difficult to put in motion. First.
there must be arranged basis of ar
bitration. then arbitrators be selected
by the parties to the case. and these
/. In turn must choose an umpire or UNI
pfres. and while this is going on the
blockade would continue, with its ever
present, danger of active hostilities
and bloodshed that might render nuga-
tory all attempts at arbitration. On
the; other hand. II the president un-
! aertales the settlement, he can get
rid of all red tape and start the work
Of arbitration within a few days.

MACKENZIE GOES TO
RAISE RAvENNA WRECK

Maj. c. Med. Townsend left today
on the government snag boat, COL
Mackenzie, for the scene of the dis
aster to the rafter Ravenna just
above Dubuque, where an effort will
be made to at least recover the bod
les of the members of the crew that
were drowned and are supposed to
be in the boat. Little is known here
of the conditions under which the
Ravenna was sunk, but it is consid-
cred probable that her machinery
was dumped overheard when she was
overturned. 1t is believed that she
overturned in a place where the wa
ter is very deep, and il is considered
likely that her cabin will have been
carried away by the action of the
water by the time the Mackenzie
reaches the scene.

this season what can be done in
identifying by vines and window

decoration is so cheap and is so cas-

that so few take advantage of it. a

form the association that they are

absolutely necessary, for the associ-

prizes in all cases unless. persons are
competing for them. Then the assoc
citation desires to keep note of all
places during the summer, for a prize
will depend not upon the beauty of
the vines, flowers or lawns at a par

GIRL DRINKS POISON
AT HOME OF FIANCE

The fact has leaked out that a
young lady of this city attempted to
commit suicide in Moline Wednesday
afternoon, and was saved only
through the prompt and vigorous eff
forts of a physician who was called
upon the case.
The young lady, it seems, had gone
to the home of young man she was
to marry, who lives in that city, and
finding that he had gone, she went
to drug store and purchased a bot
tie of chloroform. Returning to the
home of her fiance she drank the
contents of the bottle.
Her actions having been discovered
proper measures were at once taken,
the effects of the poison counter
acted, and she is now in her usual
health.
