London, July S1--The government
tonight tendFed a banquet to the
delegates to the universal peace CON
gress at the Hotel Cecil. Lewis Har-
court, first commissioner of works.
presided. The guests included Her.
bert Henry Asquith, the prime minis
ter; Lord Fitzmaurice, the lord chan
cellor; Lord and Lady Courtney the
countess of Aberdeen; James Bryce
British ambassador to the United
States; William Th Stead and other
prominent persons.
Mr.. Asquith, in proposing toast
TO the International peace movement,
welcomed the delegates and assured
them Of the Rrftish governments SYM
pathy. He SAID he was not consoled
by the arguments that colossal arma-
ments We're the surest safeguard
against war when he was assured by
a great authority that the annual ex-
penditure Of civilized nations for
| ornaments was something near -four
or five hundred million pounds sterl-
ing.
I'VE must ask ourselves" the prime
minister said, whether we are bound
to asquiesce in the futile fatalism
which accepts the argument as a
! fact"
/ The prime minister was not san
guine enough to believe that the
youngest among those present would
live to witness the advent of disarma.

But. admitting an that, Mr.. Asqutl
continues. the plain fact remains tha
there was enterprise more worth,
of the efforts of good men than to de
vice practicable plans. not only fo
! minimizing the risks Of internationa
quarrels but for providing a rationa
substitute for the settlement of dis
putes by warfare. Among the variou
means of progress in this direction. III
said. was the growth Of internationa
agreements. He said he used thu
word agreements because alliance
sometimes had the contrary effect, Th'
second was the substitution of inter
national litigation for the barbarou
methods of slaughter The transla
tion of these principles into practice
was heset with difficulty, though not
in his opinion, insurmountable diff
Guilty.
Lately Mr.. Asquith asserted, ther
was the delicate sphere of information
al relations. The main thing was tina
the nations should get to know ant
understand one another. Half OF thei
quarrels arise through such want o
understanding and It was the patien

REPRIMAND FOR
 LIEUTENANT EVANS

Washington, November 1s.--Lieut. Frank T. Evans, U. s. N, who was recently re- duced 150 numbers in rank for conduct unbecoming an officer and prejudicial to the service, was today reprimanded by Acting Secretary Newberry, in accordance with the finding of the courtmartial, in the following language;
 "The department for reasons obvious to the service. regards this as a pecul iarly deplorable case and in publishing it's disapproval of the conduct of Lieutenant Evans refrains from expressing fully it's condemnation of the actions of this off, cer on the occasion in question. A cas- ual reading, however, of the charges and specifications, with the findings thereon, will be sufficient to enable the service to form it's own estimate of an officer who has been found guilty of the acts alleged in this case"
 Admiral Sperry, commander-in-chief of the fleet of batteships, in approving the findings, said that he did so fin order that Lieutenant Evans should not entirely escape punishment but made known his belief that the young officer had not been adequately punished.
 The courtmartial found Lieutenant Ev- ans guilty of leaving his station before being adequately relieved, of disrespect- full language to his superior officer, and of inviting two enlisted men to have a bottle of beer in his room.'
