PRACTICAL, PLEA FOR PEACE.

One OF the most practical argu-
ments for policy of permanent peace,
was made In New York recently by
the President OF the National Manu-
facturers' association, when he stated
that the finished products Of American
factories for one yesr now represent
the immense value OF $4,000 0oO,-
coo.
The stupendous output, he argued.
needs foreign markets and war, he
said, in disturbing the traffic would
work Industrial damage to the United
States even IL thIs country is not en-
gagged in the conflict.
He showed how the fall OF the
house Of Barring. some years ago,
caused by reaction from a railway
boom in Argentina, started panic
around the world which in its devas-
tating course wrecked American pros
perlty. He showed. further that the
financial furry few weeks ago In
Wall street Instantly followed a SINH
lar disturbance OF the Berlin Bocrse
and that as quick as the cables could
flash the news the market in London
collapsed
War he said. would injuTe oar for.
eIgn trade. 1t would do far more
than that. Amy great European con-
fliet might readily produce IA panic in
America and toppe our prosperity
even II not dollars worth OF damage
was done directly to our sea-borne
traffic.
This Is true. The various interests
OF the world are now SO interviewer
that a disturbance in any country
is liable to be felt seriously in all
other civilized countries War between
two powe IS Is therefore now the con-
Germ OF ALL
But what is true OF international
troubles Is stIll more SO of conflicts
between citizens and business interests
OF the same country They are de-
structive Of prosperity- Secretary Root
strongly recommends permanent
court for the adjustment of all inter-
national differences In accordance
with international law. A permanent
board OF arbitration to pass upon all
questions between employers and en-
ployes is one OF the demands OF our
advanced civilization. and the only
safeguard of the enormous business
interests against the ruinous policy OF
strife.
War means destruction. Conflicts
between the various business interests
OF country mean injury and retaIla-
ton, bad feelings and loss OF conf
dence- And the heaviest burdens al
ways fall ON those least able TO bear
them. For some time there has been
conflict In industrial circles In this

MAY BE MISTRIAL
 IN ROONEY CASE
JURY SPENDS ENTIRE DAY TRY. ING TO REACH VERDlCT-DE- PENDANT IS CONFIDENT OF HIS ACQUITTAL.

Conceiving the utter hopelessness of reaching verdict last night, the jury in the case of the state versus James Rooney, alias New York Harry" quit the jury room last night shortly be- fore 8 o'clock and retired to the hotei after a very trying day in the jury room.
 The first thing upon opening court yesterday morning at 9:3O o'clock was Judge c. c. Nesmith's charge to the jury. The charge was short, although there were number of written charges which had to be read to the jury The case was turned over to the jury for verdict, however, shortly before 10 o'clock and 1t adjourned to the regular grand jury room on the third floor of the court house.
 At o'clock last night, after about ten hours session, the body saw no chance of an agreement and it was decided to retire for the night. It Is understood that six stood for conviction and six for acquittal.
 Rooney, the defendant, who has been on trial for several days, expressed confidence of his acquittal to his coun- sel yesterday morning, and appeared to be in very good spirits.
 The general concession at the court house is that the present hearing of Rooney, like the former, will result in a mistrial.
