President Issues Another
Manifesto on the Matter
SCOTT AND WRIGHT CONFER
Sec. Wright Says He viii Take Action
Within IS Hours-col. Scott In
sists That If the Offenders Are
Not Punished.

Oyster Bay, Aug. 3. Explanations in
to the much involved case Of dismissal
Of the West Point cadets for hazins
continued to come from the president
yesterday.
After reading the morning paper.
containing the accounts of the state
ments made last week by Secretary
Loeb and Gen. Luke Il. Wright, the
secretary of war regarding the cadets
the president gave out the following
statement through Secretary Foster
yesterday afternoon.
Acting Secretary Foster again said
that the president has not yet received
the final decision Of the war department
in the West Point hazing case; that
originally the department seemed in.
cined TO remove the cadets. When
Secretary Wright was here he seemed
inclined to think that they ought not to
be removed.
But he has evidently not yet come
to any conclusion in the matter. and
has notified the president that he wants
the president to See Col. Scott. with
whom Secretary Wright has Just been
IN consultation. The president, of
course, will come to no final decisio /.
until he hears from Gen. Wright"
The presidents latest manifesto, fol.
lowing close on that Of yesterday, in
which be fatty contradcted the state.
ments Of Secretary Wright and. Secre-
tary Loeb. apparently made the muddls
worse instead Of clearing it any.
The case IS now so involved that even
the members OF the Executive forcs
here have given up trying to make head
or tail ont of it.
The president viii undoubtedly see
Col. Scott, with whom be ia on very
friendly terms. and discuss the matter
with him. The colonel is expected
here today or tomorrow.
The presidents statement that Sec
rotary Wright Seemed inclined to
think that the cadets ought not TO be
is considered to be but an
effort on his part TO tone down the sew.
Gritty Of his emphatic statement yester.
day, denying that he had taken any
action in the matter. although Secre-
tary Wright said that the president
had signed the order Of dismissal be
fore it had been promulgated.
Before the matter is finally settled
one way or the other, Secretary Wright
will probably have to come to Oyster
Bay again and talk it all over with the
president. Meanwhile other explana
tons are hourly expected from Saga
more Hill.

Lord Selby at International
Congress
PRINCIPLE ADVOCATED
BY Winston Churchill AIso--Says Policy
Has Made Britain Prosper--Brtsh
Gods Secure Favorable Terms
in Other Countries.

London, Aug. 5.-fhe international
Free Trade Congress was opened here
yesterday with lord Selby in the chair.
Delegates were present from the United
States, France, Germany, Belgium Hol.
land, Denmark, Italy and Great Britain.
IN his address OF welcome Lord selby
said the prospects for free trade were
somewhat gloomy and that the idea of
protection was advancing in an aggres.
sNe manner, but IN spite Of this the
policy Of free trade ultimately must pre-.
vail Free trade and its bearings on
international relations" the subject tor
discussion at the first session OF the
Congress, was introduced by Winston
Churchill president OF the board oil
trade, who argued that Great Britain
was an object lesson. She had pursued
the free trade policy, yet She remained
prosperous and powerful and It had been
found that British goods entered all
other countries ON as good terms As
were secured by any nation by the most
elaborate use OF fiscal weapons With
out customs duties, except ON few ar.
ticles the country raised an enormous
revenue and conducted business on
gigantic scale. A. 4. Sheppard, one OF
the American delegates, took part in
the discussion which followed the min
ister's speech. Mr.. Churchill was ire
quently interrupted by a party OF sui
tragettes, who finally had 10 be elected.
Harvey NJ Sheppard Of the American
Free Trade league urged the need OF
continuing the influence OF education in
the direction OF economic disarmament
as prelude to military disarmament.
Among the other Americans present were
Professor William G. Sumner Of Yale
University; Franklin Pierce, John De
Witt Warner and Lawson Purdy, all
OF New York, and Lewis + Post OF Chi

For Perspirina Hands.

Hands which perspire constantly and
become cold and clammy are unpleas-
ant things TO possess. Gloves are
ruined, and the people who possess
perspiring hands are usually sensitive
about shaking hands with other peo-
pie. Generally when the hands have
clammy perspiration the trouble is
due either to nervousness or lack of
tone in the system. Dip the palms In
very hot water and after drying them
rub dry boracic acid or solution OF
boracic acid and alcohol into them.

ABOUT INJUNCTI0NS.
Whist Organized Labor Demands--Is%

Whist Organized Labor Demands--Is%
sue viii Not Down.
The principles Of government BY in
junction are brought into the limelight
stronger than ever before by the APP
pearanee of President Gompers and the
executive council Of the American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor ut the national con-
yentions of the two dominant political
parties, demanding In the name OF or
ganized labor, that some declaration be
made that the writ of injunction In
labor cases be more clearly defined.
What organized labor demands-and
sooner or later that request will be ac-
coded tots that there shall lie a hear
ing granted before such writ Of in
junction Is issued And when the
charge Is made that an injunction has
been violated organized labor claims
that it is neither just nor right that the
alleged violator should be hailed beforc
the same court fer trial and punish
ment.
The method followed at present sim-
ply means that the court virtually
makes the law and subsequently acts
as the judge, jury and executioner. 1t
is now pretty generally conceded that
the broad scope recently given to In
functions in labor disputes places an
unlimited power in the hands of one
man. And it is just this power that or
ganized labor objects to. Attempts
have been made and are continuing to
be made to show that members OF or
ganized labor are camoring to be
placed In a class by themselves by ex-
empting them from the ordinary opera
ton of the general law of injunction.
This is a false claim and is only in
tended to befog the real issue.
We all know that injunctions have
been needlessly issued, working unnec-
essary hardship in many instances, and
it is only reasonable to demand that
some general system should be adopt
ed to which the practice should con-
form. Many of the leading members
of the bar and not a few of the emf
nent iurists of the country have de-
cIared that there should be a general
of the process of injunc-
ton in labor cases. They are support
ed in their ideas by large portion of
the general public in at least two vital

no writ of injunction issued until both

Why Everybody Limps.


Do you limp as you walk2 Perhaps
you think you do not. but physioio-
gist says that you do; at least, he says
that nearly everybody linps little,
because nearly everybody's left leg is
shorter than the right. In large ma
iorfty of cases the limp is so slight as
TO be imperceptible, but IT is there all
the same. A child's legs at its birth
are shorter than its arms. The leg
bones lengthen chiefly By additions TO
their ends, caused by the continual for
matien and ossifcetion Of cartilage
there during the period Of growth. If
one of these cartilage caps be injured
1t may make the leg shorter, or IL one
OF them be stimulated by innsmma-
ton it may make the leg lenger. The
cartilage caps are constantly stimu-
lated in young people by active exer.
else, and thus they grow rapidly. IL
an equal amount Of exercise were
taken by each leg, the growth would
be equal, and one leg would never be
shorter than the other. But this is
practically impossible, and that is why
nearly everybody limps-a little.--Chi.
