of Men Of All Parties.

Washington, Sept. Pill health,
continuing through two years at least,
which for the most part untitled him
for his congressional duties, had afiict-
ed Representative Hit SO that his de-
mise was not altogether unexpected
here In fact, the greater part of the
work of the important committee Of
foreign affairs of the house of repre-
sentatives, of which Mr.. Hit was
chairman, was during the entire last
session of congress discharged first
by Representative Robert Adams of
Pennsylvania up to the time of his
tragic death last spring and after
wards by Representatives Cousins of
Iowa, Charles Lands of Indiana and
Perkins of New York.
Mr.. Hit was one of the popular men
in congress, his friendship including
men of all parties, and because of his
wide experience and ability he was
always listened to with the greatest of
attention when he dealt with matters
pertaining to foreign affairs.

all basic facts bearing on the matter.
General Menocal considers his own
work at an end and has turned over
his reports to Secretary Taft. ~
Government officials maintain firm
attitude, saying there Is no reason to
recede from that position. They hold '1
that the present situation Is not due
