MOHONK CONFERENCE CLOSES
The Conference Call on Uncle Sam
To Take the Iniatitive.

Mohonk, Lake, n. Y, May 2l.-
With an imposing array OF speakers
the fifth annual meeting Of the Lake
Mohonk conference on international
arbitration concluded its deliberations
tonight.
Following, in part, is the platform
adopted by the conference: "We urge
upon our government, which has been
so conspicuously and so honorably
identified with the progressive policies
of The Hague, prompt action toward
perfecting the important measures
there inaugurated, and the complete
development Of the system OF arb1tra-
ton. We especially urge its early
initiative in the establishment OF the
international court of arbitral justice.
Eve further urge the negotiation
of a general treaty Of arbitration be-
tween all nations, and look forward
with increasing hope to the day when
treaties Of arbitration shall provide
for the reference to The Hague OF all
international differences not settled
by regular diplomatic negotiation. "

FORETOLD TIME OF DEATH.
Batesburg Man Knew Beforehand
When he Would Die.

Anderson Intelligencer.
Batesburg people tell Of a curious
incident with regard to the death this
week Of Mr.. William McAllister Of
that place. Several years ago, when
his wife died.. he had double tomb
erected in the village cemetery for
himself and wife.
He even went 50 far as to have the
date of his own death engraved on
his side of the tomb. This he put down
as March 20, 1909. This was also his
birthday.
Strange enough, he died IN little
more than. month after the date, on
MAY II. He now lies buried under
that tomb, with the date unchanged.
He was an old man and seemed to feel
the loss Of his wife to such an extent
that he was cognizant that he could
not long survive her. But it should
he left to the psychologists to figure
out whether his setting the date OF
his death had much to do with having
it occur so near that time.

ASYLUM INQUIRY ADJOURNED
Committee Will Not Meet Again on-
til July 27-Testimony Practl-
cally Completed.

Columbia, May 2O.-The committee,
which is investigating the affairs OF
the State Hospital for the Insane de-
cided this afternoon to adjourn until
july 81 at 4 O'Clock. This means
that the Asylum investigation will
stop until that time. The committee
decided that it would not close the
doors to new evidence, but it does not
wish repetition and reiteratlon OF
what has already been testified to.
In the meanwhile the regents and au-
thorities are to submit recommended
tions in writing, and when the COM
mittee meets again in July, will prob
ably begin to frame up its report.
The evidence before the committee to-
day was entirely cumulative, except
for the expansion of the incident rela-
tive to Mr.. Hunter A. Gibbes, Of the
Columbia bar. This particular Incl
dent is Of interest, because it was Mr.
Hunter A. Glbbes and another me-

PEACE ON EARTH
GOV. ANSEL'S TEXT.
South Carolina Executive at Lake
lohonk Conference-Progress
In Arbitration.

Rohonk Lake, \. Y, May 20.-Gov.
+. Ansel Of South Carolina today
Rdressed the Lake Mohonk confer
gnce on international Arbitration.
i He said in part:
Il desire in the first place to eN-
/ tend my thanks to Mr.. Smiley Tor the
HI very kind invitation extended to me
to attend this session Of the confer
h ence and to express my interest IN
and Endorsement Of the object OF It's
kmeeting.
"The subject Of international arbl-
tration is one that has appealed to me
a for many years past, and l wish to
express a hope that the day is not
far distant when differences among
the nations Of the world shall be set
tied, not by the sword, but by some
court of arbitration established and
maintained by all the powers. Much
progress has already been made along
the lines indicated by the two meet
ings of The Hague conference already
held and the one that is to be held
about the year 1915, and I, for one,
4 1beleve that much of the good work
already done along these lines can be
attributed to the work of former
meetings of this conference and the
n Influence flowing from them.
"Peace on earth, good will to men
IS d lesson that was taught by the
writers Of old, and is the principle on
which the nations of the world should
stand in the settlement of the many
questions that arise.
"It has been a pleasure to me to
see the progress made in the past
few years along the line of interna-
tional arbitration, and the many ex-
pressions made by the noted thinkers
and speakers Of this and other coun-
in &gkries in advocacy of the same. The
principle Of the golden rule IS one
that nations, as we'll as people, should
work out and practice in all matters
which pertain to themselves and 9TH
ers. Right and not might should pre-
vail and the brotherhood OF man
ehould be recognized and practiced.
Many, if not all, of the questions
difference and the causes thereof
@ @etween nations can be amicably and
Satisfactorily settled by the recognl-
ion by each Of the rights OF each,
and when an amicable settlement can
not be brought about by conference
between representatives Of each, then
resort should be had to court OF ar
bitration whose action should be final
and binding.
i.The establishment Of this court,
of course, can only be brought about
;bv agreement among all the powers
Of the world, but I for one believe
that if all the powers will agree to
the establishment Of such court,
that an agreement should be entered
into between as many as Will agree,
and others seeing good accomplished
will ultimately come in and join hands
with them in working for the good
of all -
