Bodies Of Cedar River Victims Cannot

Cedar Falls. April 11.-All efforts to
locate the bodies of Roger Clay and
Frank Boehmler in the Cedar river
have proven fruitless. Every avail
able means has been employed and the
dam has been raised on the side where
they went over to turn the flow of the
water to the opposite shore so that
grab hooks can be worked near the
dam. Hundreds of men are searching.
The reward of $500 offered will be rails
ed unless they are soon found.

John P. Nields Appointed.

President Roosevelt has appointed
John P. Nields, of Wilmington, as
United States District Attorney to sue
ceed William E. Byrne. Mr.. Nields
was recommended for the appointment
by Senator Ball. The Addicks faction
had backed another man.
Itis believed that the most effective
factor in bringing about the appoint
ment of Mr., Nields was the strong senti-
ment of the Wilmington and Delaware
bar, and particularly the recommends
tion Of Judge George Gray. To empha
size the fact that the appointment was
non-factional the following statement
was given out at the White House with
the Presidents CONSENT
'IThe two United States Senators dis
agreed as to whom they would recon-
mend for the vacancy. The President
went over the Endorsement Of all the
candidates who have been necommend-
ed for the place In such case he feels
that the opinion of the judiciary and
the bar should have peculiar weight.
He finds that the Federal and State
Judges and an overwhelming majority
Of the members of the bar, without re-
gard to party or faction, favor the APP
pOIntment of Mr., Nields, aud the Presi.
dent is entirely Satisfied rs to his
personal and professional fitness.p

Todd Case Settled.

A Washington special to the Phila-
delphia Ledger says:
The incident of the removal Of Miss
Huldah Todd, postmaster at Green
wood, Del, is closed, according to Del
awale and Washington authorities.
The President, it is understood, will
not make any adjustment of the matter
nor issue any statement.
Notwithstanding much that has
been said of the application of civil
service rules inferentially to fourth class
postmasters, there has been no change
i'm the practice of the Post Office De.
partment. Early in the first Mckinley
Administration, without any formal
rule or any order to that effect, it was
decided by the President and Post
master General Geary that it should be
the practice of the department not to
remove fourth class pOstmasters until
thev had served four years unless for
cause. 1t was agreed that this policy
should not create a four years term
for fourth class postmasters. and the
commission for a postmaster of this
class still contains the clause to the
effect that he shall hold the Office sat
the'pleasure Ofthe PostmasterGeneral.' u
In the Todd case this practice would
have applied, as Miss Todd had held
tho cfIioa over fOur wears Miss Todd
rested her demand for retention on thC
supposed protection of the civil service
rules The argument made by Civi
Service Commission Green that four
class p p-stmasters are under the civi
servic- rules is oot accepted at the Pot
office DepartmentnOr by the Piesiden!

PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT has evi-
IDENTIFY been influenced in making
the appointment of the United
States District Attorney for Della
ware, by the almost unanimous en-
dorsement of Mr.. Nields as Mr..
Byrnes successor, by the lawyers
of the State regardless of party
It was a natural thing for the Pres
ident to do; after having the two
Senators from Delaware present
separate aspirants for the position,
and then failing to compromise.
Then again, the understanding that
the Senators were to divide the
patronage on the basis of Senator
Ball taking New Castle, while Sen
ator Alice was to have Kent and
Sussex, had some weight. We fail
to see where the President has re-
versed himself in any way as to
the attitude he has maintained to-
ward the Delaware patronage. In
this particular appointment we
think that his course has been
about as near correct as any that
was open for him. Mr. Nields is
a lawyer of ability and standing
and in him the Office will have a
man capable of discharging the du-
ties with credit to himself and tC
the government.

mechanical department, it is the
best printed paper in that city. Its
manner of treating news is attrac-

cal morality back of it, its sphere
as a newspaper would be complete.
The change in appearance is pleas

British Protocol Provides For the Ref.

Washington, Feb. President
Roosevelt has declined the invitation
of the allied powers to arbitrate tha
question as to whether they shall re-
ceive preferential treatment in the
settlement Of their claims against We
nezuela over the other creditor ma
tons. He reached this decision short
ly before o'clock Friday afternoon,
and instructed Secretary Hay to dis
patch a note to the British embassy
at once advising the British ambassa-
dor to that effect. The matter, there
fore, now will be referred to me
Hague tribunal. This will result in
the immediate raising OF the block
ade
Washington, Feb. 9.-Tne represen-
tatiyes of the allies here are busily
engaged in the preparation of the prot.
OcOl which they are to sign with Mr..
Bowen, Venezuelas representative, for
the reference to The Hague of the
question whether the blockading pow
iers shall be entitled to preferential
treatment in the settlement of their
claims. The blockade will be raised
when the protocols are signed. They
are in constant communication with
their governments on this subject and
are anxious as far as possible to cover
every detail which should be compris.
ed in an instrument of this character.
Mr.. Bowen also is anxious that the
protocol shall be identical so far as
this may be practicable and he is di-
recting his efforts to that end and also
that they shall be signed on the same
day.
The British protocol provides for
the reference of the contention of the
allies for preferential treatment to The
Hague for settlement for the payment
by Venezuela to Great Britain five hun.
.dred thousand pounds cash and for
the immediate raising of the blockade.
The matter of the adjudication Of the
claims and the collection of the 80
per cent. out of which they are to be
paid has been left for the second prot.
ocOl.
Italy, it has been learned, wishes to
have inserted in her protocol an arti.
Gle providing for a change in her
treaty or amity with Venezuela so as
to include the favored nation" clause,
such as the other powers possess. Mr..
Bowen has explained that while he is
willing to use his influence to secure
this, he can do nothing, more in the
protocol than recommend it, as the
matter is entirely irrelevant to the
present controversy. There are also
other provisions in the Italian proto.
col, which do not meet the approval of
Mr.. Bowen, and the Italian ambassador
has cabled to Rome for permission to
withdraw them.
Regarding the German protocol lit.
tie is known except tnat it is along
the general lines of the other two.
