SEEKING MUTUAL ADJUSTMENT
Claims Against England and English
Claims Against Us.

Secretary Root is having made a careful
study of the respective claims of England.
against the United States and the United
States against England, with view to
mutual adjustment, If that is possible. As
he told the Senate committee on foreign re-
lations Wednesday, he believes that without
resorting to the cumbersome machinery of
a high joint commission, OF even framing a
treaty which would have to be urged through
the Senate the matter might be arranged
by Direct negotiation and a balance struck
and paid in cash by the party found to have
the best or the claims Because the execu-
tive has no constitutional power to bind
the legislative branch of our government,
which alone can appropriate the money
necessary to meet and pay of an adverse
balance 1t is probable that the agreement
between the negotiators must provide that
the judgments reached shall be subject to
the approval of the Congress here and of
parliament In England.
The obstacle in the way of a compare
lively easy agreement upon program OF
negotiation of these claims Is the famous
Frederick Gearing case. That United States
fishing vessel was seized a number OF years
ago in Canadian port for alleged viola
ton OF the fishing laws, and, In spite OF
a vigorous protest by this government, was
condemned and sold, and no restitution was
made to the owners. The New England SEN
ators still keenly feel what they declare to
have been the injustice of that procedure,
and are firm In their contention that no
agreement shall be made for the settlement
of claims of Americans against Great Brit
ain that does not provide first of all for
the adjustment of that claim. The British
government. however. asserts that the mat
ter is res adjudicatdss that he ease was
tried out thoroughly In the Canadian courts
and that no negotiations can succeed IL they
are to revert to dead issues of that kind.

George Riggs, Well Known Young
Man Of the Town Of Salem,
Meets Accidental Death
A FORMER KENOSRA STUDENT
Was Repairing Pulley on a Hay
Fork When He Slipped and Fell to
the Stone Floor Below Rup-
turing a Blood Vessel

George Riggs, son Of the1 late John
Riggs and one Of the best known
young men in the western part of the
county, met with a fatal accident at
the farm of B. H. Stocker, in the
town of Salem, Tuesday afternoon,
when a fall from the top of a barn re-
suited in his receiving injuries from
which he died few minutes later.
Riggs had been at work on the
Stocker farm for some time and was
assisting other men in the repairing
Of hay fork One of the pulleys in
the top Of the barn failed to work in
proper form and Riggs volunteered to
climb up and attempt to fix it. The
pulley was some 40 feet above the
barn floor. Riggs made the ascent
and had repaired the pulley and had
started to return when the rope to
which he had been holding snapped
like whip cord and he was thrown to
the stone floor 40 feet below. He was
picked up unconscious by the other
men in the barn who had heard the
fall and hurried to his assistance.
Riggs was still alive when discovered
by his fellow workmen and as soon as
possible he was carried out into the
yard near the barn and doctor sum
moned. The young man, however,
never regained consciousness and he
died few minutes after he had been
removed from the barn.
A Salem justice summoned a jury
and held an inquest, which resulted
in verdict of accidental death.
Late Tuesday evening the remains
were removed to the Riggs home and
the funeral will probably be held on
Thursday afternoon.
The death of Riggs has caused
great sorrow in the town of Salem as
he was universally known and popu-
lar among the people of the town. He
was born and raised IN the town Of
Salem and was about thirty years of
age. He is survived by widow.
An examination after the death of
Riggs showed that death had resulted
from the rupture Of blood vessel in
his head.
Riggs is well known ia Kenosha as
he was former student Of the College
Of Commerce. He. attended the col
lege for two yeas and was we'll known
as a student and an athlete.
