TEARS
AND CHEERS

Salt Lake, Aug I1.-Amid cheers
Tor the living and tears for the dead
thousands of survivors of the Grand
Army of the Republic marched past
today under the shadow of the Nor
mon Temple, their tagging feet spur
red forward by the old tunes to which
they marched in a score of desperate
campaigns. They marched for Two
miles between thrCngs of cheering
spectators, headed by the 18th Infan-
try from FIT. Douglas and the Utah
National Guard. then, bearing torn
and faded flags came the fast thin
ming ranks of the departments of the
q. A. r., with the department of Illi-
nois in the lead and the Utah hosts
bringing up the rear.
Half way in the line of march they
were greeted by living flag. compos-
ed OF 300 school children dressed in
red. white and blue. AS the veterans
passed the children fell in behind
singing Marching Through Georgia"
the Battle Hymn of the Republic"
and Onward Christian Soldiers"
AS the faded colors were lowered
in salute before the reviewing plat
form and the gray heads barred, a
wave of patriotism swept the thous-
ands OF spectators into tumults of
cheering which were only checked by
the clank of cars and the honks of the
autos. as the traffic which was stop
ped during the parade forced its way
once more through the crowded
streets.
1t is estimated that seven thousand
veterans were in line. The only dis
tressing feature of the day was the
of scores of children who
formed the living flag. due to long
standing in the sun.
Each state carried a characteristic
insignia. Texas carried steer horns,
Oklahoma, as a new state, a nursing
bottle, and Kansas sun flowers.

Washington. Dec. 6.-unless halted

eral, Senator Boraha of Idaho, one of
the ablest lawyers Ia the senate and
warm friend of Mr.. Taft, will offer

providing for an investigation of the

that such resolution would COM

PEACE TREATY TERMS
PLEDGES TAKEN BY FIVE SOUTH
AMERICAN REPUBLICS-SEEK
TO END REVOLUTION,

Washington, Dec. 6.-The treaty of
peace and amity which was signed
by the representatives of five Central
American countries was the result of
a conference which was opened in
Washington in November, 1907. The
bringing together of the representa-
tives of the five countries was accom-
plished by Elihu Root, then secretary
of state. After many negotiations the
representatives at Washington of
Costa Rfca, Guatemala, Salvador, Hon
duras and Nicaragua on September II
signed the agreement to meet, and it
was in accordance with this protocol
that the convention was held.
The treaty was the outgrowth of
efforts to find a way to put an end to
the anarchy In Central America. in
which both Mexico and the United
States were interested. They acted
jointly In the matter. Secretary Root
took the ground that, with the COM
pletion of the Panama canal, these re-
publics should be "in our front yard"
and that some practical action must
be taken to put an end to revolutions.
Terms Of Agreement.
Under the treaty the five republics
bound themselves to. maintain peace,
to preserve complete harmony. and to
arbitrate their differences before the
Central American court of justice, a
tribunal established under the new
agreement. Some of the leading arti-
cles are as follows:
Article 1I-Desiring to secure to the
republics Of Central America the bene-
fits which are derived from the main
tenance Of their institutions and con-
tribute at the same time in strength
eng their stability and the prestige
with which they ought to be- surround

Washington, Dec. 6.-The Duke

promotion to the vice admiralty of the
Italian navy will not interfere with
his plans to visit this country next
March. Under the auspices of the
National Geographic society he will

range. It 10 reported that this visit

ing that he will not be-. treated as q

This information is said by friends
to indicate desire to receive a reply

the statement that she will have made
up her mind by that time as to
whether she will yield her hand or
not.

Washington, Dec. 6.-Crowded gal
leries representing the official and
social life in Washington witnessed
the commencement of the regular ses-
sion of the Sixty-first congress today.
On the floor of both houses the re-
newal of friendships among the SEN
ators and representatives took the
place of interchanges on partisan or
political matters. Early in the day it
was evident that when Vice President
Sherman in the senate and Speaker
Cannon In the house should bring
down their gavels at the hour of noon,
there would be few empty seats in
the two chambers. The procedure fol-
lowed on the first day was similar to
that which has characterized every
opening of congress. A great mass of
bills was in the receptacle provided
in the house. The senators will wait
until tomorrow before laying before
their body the new measures the sena-
tors propose to father during the COM
ing months.
Announcement of the recent death
of Senator johnson of North Dakota,
and of Representatives Lassiter of
Virginia and DeArmond of Missouri
caused an adjournment on both sides
of the capital.
