Force Under Capt. Calder selxes Guam.
tity Of eaIata.
Georgetown, British Guiana, Aug.
19.-Mueh excitement has been caused
here by the invasion Of Venezuelan
territory by Capt. Calder, in command
of a small frontier force from British
Guiana, and by the seizure of a guam
tity Of balata (the gum Of the bullet
tree, used for insulating wires. etc.,
which it Is alleged has been collected
on British territory.
Capt. Calder's force went down the
Barima river and crossed the boun-
Diary into Venezuelan territory, where
Capt. Calder, at the point Of a revolv-
er, demanded that the Venezuelan
commissioner give up the gum. He has
made a protest, however, to President
Castro and the British consul here
against the seizure of the balata and
the invasion of Venezuelan territory.
Fears are entertained of retaliation
at Morawhanna, British frontier head
quarters. There has been trouble over
the balata trade for some time, and
British officials have made vigorous
attempts to prevent Illicit trading in
the gum.
London. Aug. 19.-The colonial Of

DISARMAMENT IS fAYORfD
PEACE CONFERENCE ADOPTS
RESOLUTION PROPOSED BY
GREAT BRITAIN.

The Hague, Aug. 20.-At the plenary
sitting of the peace conference Satur
day a resolution proposed by Sir Ed
ward Fry (British) was adopted unan'
lmously, as follows:
This conference confirms the reso.
luton adopted by the conference OF
1890 regarding the limitation of mill
tary burdens, and as military burdens
have been considerably augmented in
almost all countries since 1899. it de.
clares 1t is highly desirable to see the
governments earnestly resume the
study of this question"
The session was opened at 3 O'Clock
by President Nelidof. After the min
utes of the previous session had been
read and approved the amendments OF
the convention of 1899 regarding the
laws and customs of land war and the
prohibition of the throwing Of explo'
sives from balloons, reported by Gen.
Baron Arthur Giesel Won Gieslingen
austria Hungary, were read and
unanimously adopted, as was the con
vention regarding the bombardment of
undetended towns, etc.
Speech Holds Attention.
The conference gave close attention
while Sir Edward Fry, head of the
British delegation, delivered his
speech on the limitation of arma-
ments. At the conclusion of his speech
Sir Edward proposed the adoption OF
the resolution given above.
Immediately after Sir Edward had
finished speaking. M. Nelidof. head of
the Russian delegation and president
of the conference, rose and read SOW
eral communications regarding the
limitation Of ornaments, including the
disarmament convention between Ar
gentina and Chill. He then delivered
q speech, saying that the conference
must receive alphabetically efforts
in this direction.
Unanimously Approved.
The British resolution was then
unanimously approved.
The proposition to prohibit the
throwing of explosives from balloons
was approved by Twenty-Five yeas
and eight votes in the negative. There
were seven abstentions from voting
on this proposition.
Sir Edward Fry announced that
Great Britain adhered to the prohibit
ton of the use of asphyxiating gas and
expanding bullets.
The proposition to prohibit the bonn
bardment Of undefended towns was
unanimously approved. though seven
delegates made reservations.

GIGANTIC PAPER
COMBINE FORMING
EVERY PAPER MILL IN MiNNESO.
IA. WISCONSIN AND NIGH.
GAN IN DEAL.
TRUST TO MAKE GOOD THREAT

Appleton, Wis, Aug. Is. - The In
ternational Paper company is behind
the print paper merger which Is now
being brought to 8 successful close
This much was given out by a manu-
f~acturer who stands nigh in the paper
trade and who has mills which will en-
ter the merger.
The informant goes .nrther than
that. He says that every print paper,
manila fiber, sulphite and ground
plant in Wisconsin, Minnesota and
Michigan will be taken into the gi-
gantic company. He say that options
are now held on practically all OF the
mills. He added that within twelve
months the International will control
the print paper market of the United
States. To do this the company will
expend from $780, 900, 900 to $50,00O,-
900 in buying up the plants in the Mid
die West.
Hanrahan at the Helm.
To John G. Hanrahan of New York,
who successfully engineered the merg-
ing the twenty-five mills in the Ameri-
can Writing company and the thirty
two mills IN the International Paper
company, belongs the credit for the
Western merger.
The manufacturer puts himself on
record as stating that the price of
print paper will advance to 4 cents to
the jobber and 6 cents to the small
buyer within two years.
When the General Paper company
was dissolved by Judge Sanborn of
the United States court of appeals at
st. Paul on June 16, 1906, the state.
ment was openly made by members of
the alleged trust that the press of the
country, which had fought the social
ed trust, would regret it. This time of
regret is said to be in the near future,
when the impending deal will have
been consummated and the Interna
tional. which will then control the
print paper market Of the United
States, will be able to arbitrarily fix
its own prices.
Dodge Antitrust Law.
There are se~venty-eight print paper
mills IN the United States, and the alb
sorption Of the mills OF the Middle
West by the International, in addition
to its present great holdings in the
East, will give it the control of over
two-thirds of the print paper plants In
the country, and the consumer will
pay the fiddler.
The merger, it is said, will be con.
Quoted On the same lines as the Inter.
national, so as not to conflict with the
antitrust laws and meet the fate of
the General Paper company. Practi.
eally the only competition it will have
will be the Great Northern Paper com.
pany. which manufactures only a
small fractisn Of the print paper used
in the country.
