cation of the bureau of American repub-
lies; arbitration in disputes between the
republics, and the extension of that
idea by the Hague conference to every
country, extension for years OF the
treaty agreed upon at the Mexican con-
ference for arbitration of pecuniary
claims among the different republics; and
that the Hague conference be requested
to consider the extent to which, II any,
force can be used for the collection OF
public debts.

the last week of the sensational divorce
suit of Harije versus HsrGe began with
sensation this morning. The announce
ment WaS msde that Attorney W. II.
Stanton, personal Cognsel for the colored
coachman, Clifford Hooe, had ''thrown
I'D the sponge" and washed his hands OF
the conspiracy charges against his client.
Stanton declared .hat Clifford Hooe has
been continually lying to h.C. and has
been 30 entirely unreliable in his state
ments that be would have nothing fur
ther to do with him. Attorney Free
man, of the defense, offered to put Mrs.
Hartie, respondent, on the stand in
order to deny the Hotel Lincoln and the
Watson street house incidents. Judge
Frazer stated, however, that such denial
was not necessary; that nothing had
been presented by the libellant to sub
stAntjate those allegations, and the court
would therefore declare the respondent
Innocent of those charges. Thereupon
the attorneys for the defense announce
that they would rest. Rebultal tesii-
mony was next in order.
