BRAZIL OBJECTS
Does Not Wish to be Arbitrarily Dc.

Third Glass.
CALLS MIGHT over RIGHT
II The Hague Conference Adopts Ar
bitration Under Such condl-
tlons II Will Not Sign
the Convention.

Rio Janeiro, Aug. pam official re.
cital of the position of Brazil in the
matter of the organization of perma
nent court of arbitration at the Hague
has been made public. 1t says that
Brazil does not insist upon superior
position In the Anglo-American project
for the organization of new and per
manent court of arbitration. She pro
nounced herself as against the crea'
ton of such court as an utterly use.
less step, inasmuch as there exists al
ready at The Hague permanent court
of arbitration, created by the conven,
ton of 1899 Brazil also put herself
on record as against the classification
of the sovereign states represented In
the conferences into states of first,
second, third, fourth and fifth class.
Independent and civilized nations 1t is
declared, should not be invited to
conference in order that they sign con.
ventions in which they classify them
selves as powers Of the third and even
the fifth order. The demand made by
the Brazilian delegation to the CON
ference is that the principle Of the
equality of sovereign states In their
international relations accepted by the
convention of 1899, continue to be rec.
ognized.
Brazil insists that the interests OF
peace will not be served by the crea
ton between the various states, by
means of contractual stipulations, OF
different degrees of sovereignty which
humiliate some at the profit of others,
and which undermine the fundamental
institutions of all, and by proclaiming,
by striking analogy the judicial pre-.
dominance of might over right. 1t
holds that If the establishment of a
new court on such foundations is In
sisted upon it will be better not to ere
ate it at all.
Consequently, the Brazilian delega'
ton to the Hague, acting in accord
-ance with the instructions received
from its government proposes a re
form of the present permanent court
of arbitration. Each state willing and
able to pay the emoluments establish
ed by the conference would have an
arbiter permanently at the Hague.
Parties in litigation would have the
privilege of submitting their differ
ences ether to the plenary court or to
arbiters selected among those attach
ed to the court.
II the other project, establishing
permanent judges only for the six
great military powers of Europe, the
United States and Japan, and temper
airy judges for the other states, classi-
fed on a scale of Importance absolute
ly arbitrary and unjust, is adopted, Bra
I'll will not sign the convention. Bra
I'll will content herself with the court
of arbitration already in existence and
she will not figure in an international
act as a power of the third class.

TO TRYANEWP PLAN
Secretary COrtelyOu win Deposit
Government Funds In Week
ly lnstallments.
BANKS OF VARIOUS CITIES
VIII Commence Next Week and Con-
tinue at Least Five Weeks--eet-
ter Than Large Amount at
One Time He Says.

New York, Aug, 24.-Secretary Of
the Treasury Cortelyou announced
Friday new plan OF depositing gov
eminent funds in New York, Boston
and other cities to afford relief to
the money market in approaching
crop movement period. Secretary Cor
telyou will commence next week
place each week at such points in the
country as he shall designate, govern
ment funds to such an amoune as he
deems sufficient to prevent an acute
monetary stringency and possible pan
ic when the demand for money is
greatest at the height of the crop NOV
ing period.
The plan of the secretary FOR none
tary relief is new to the financial
world and one that he believes will
prove more efficacious than the old
method OF treasury department in wait
ing until the country was severely
shaken financially and then coming to
the relief at the last moment by plac-
ing a large deposit of government
funds in New York banks. Secretary
Cortelyou did not state how much
money he would deposit each week,
though he indicates that the amount
would equal the situation.
The plan for financial relief was
made known Friday In the following
official statement to the Associaten
Press:
Secretary Cortelyou announced to-
day that beginning with next week
the treasury department will make
each week for a period of not less
than five weeks, deposits in national
banks at New York, Boston and 9th
er points, the security required to
be approved state, municipal and rail
road bonds acceptable under the ex-
listing requirments of the department,
with the understanding that If called
for, such deposits shall be returned
after January in installments to be
fixed by the secretary of the treas
ury. This action is taken to meet
the commercial and industrial needs
of the country at this season, and
is believed to be preferable to wait
ing until a time of acute stringency
when the only alternative would be
q large general deposit.
Investigation of the results attain
ed under the old treasury plan Of wait
ing until the last moment and then
placing a large single amount of gov
eminent funds in New York, disclosed
to Secretary Cortelyou that, as a rule,
the placing of large amount of
money, while it really helped, was
generally ill-timed and either came too
soon or too late.
Under the new plan the secretary
will place government funds in
amounts large enough to meet the
situation. For this purpose he may
use all custom funds. which he is per
mitted to do under the Aldrich act.
and If these funds are not sufficient.
he will augment them from the avail
able treasury balance, which increases
each week after the usual July de.
felt.
Secretary Cortelyou in placing the
funds throughout the
country will depend upon the bureau
established in the treasury

atrocities were perpetrated by the ma

dying from the injuries inflicted were
tortured by children who amused
themselves by gouging out thee yes
