nees. to stump the State. Just who
will be selected for governor and az

ANOTHER PEACE
CONFERENCE
Holland Sends Out Invitations
to Nations to Meet There
Again

By United Press Leased Special Wire.
THE HAGUE, Sept i6.-Upon the re-
quest of the German and Italian govern
ments II was learned to-day that Holland
has invited all the countries that partici-
pated in the second Hague conference TO
attend another peace conference TO draft
a universal treaty and to exchange regula.
tions The date for the coming conference
was not set forth definitely but Il is be-
lieved that # will be held next year. This
identification proves that Germany and
Italy asked for the meeting. The action Of
England. France and Russia in entering
into closer agreements OF late and the
trend of European politics toward the iso-
lation of Germany are believed to have led
Germany 10 this step.
Germany's action indicates that the
Kaiser's apparent Indifference to the at
titude Of other nations was only feigned
and that he is really deeply concerned
over the course recent events have taken.
Italy is one of the countries on closest
terms Of intimacy with Germany. and IL
is believed was Influenced by the Kaiser
TO aid him in securing a general confer
ence Of the powers.
