MAY ARBITRATE EMERY CLAIM
ZELAYA INCLINED TO WITH
DRAW HIS OPPOSITION.
Statement From the State Depart
ment Files Furnished to the
Nicaraguan Minister.

There is no reason to doubt that the
United States and Nicaragua will shortly
reach an agreement providing for the
arbitration of the claim of the George
d. Emery Company. an American cor
poration, against the Nicaraguan gov
eminent. The claim arises out of con-
cession for timber cutting. which was
annuied because of alleged violations of
its provisions.
Secretary Knox has insisted that the
up to this time President Zelaya has
interposed objections TO reopening the
case. In order to meet the demands of
the United States government. however,
he has now practically agreed to the ar
btration proposition on certain condi-
tions.
Senior ESpnoza, the Nicaraguan min
lister here. had conference With Secre-
tary Knox at the State Department yes
terday afternoon Oh the subject. He
represented that his government was
somewhat embarrassed in its action be-
cause it had never been able to get 4
satisfactory statement from the Emery
Company to the amount of it's claim
for damages.
Regarding it only fair that the Mic
ar&guan government should have this in
formation Secretary Knox directed that
it be furnished to the minister from the
files Of the department, and that was done
today.
This action marked a distinct advance
in the negotiations for the adjustment of
the claim by peaceful means. 1t is said,
however. there has been no abatement
in the demand of the Secretary of State
for it's prompt adjudication as an act of
justice to the claimants.

TO RECONSTRUCT soLACE.
Charleston Navy Yard Will Make
HOSPITAL of TRANSPORT.

Orders have been issued to place the
naval transport Solace out of commits
sion at the navy yard. Charleston. s. c.,
with a view to the partial reconstruction
of that vessel into a naval hospital ship.
The Solace was recently detached from
service with the Pacific feet and is now
on the last leg of the cruise from San
Francisco to Charleston.
The Relief. the only naval hospital ship
in service is tied up at the naval sta
ton. Cavite. p. L., practically disa bled
a result of her experience with ty
phoons and heavy weather on her trip
with the Atlantic battleship fleet from
San Francisco to Manila. Owing to her
unsuitability as floating hospital, the
Relief will probably never again be sent
on another cruise in that capacity.
The Solace rs considered To be much
better adapted for use a hospital ship
than her predecessor. the Relief, having
one decided advantage in the matter of
size. The Relief is c30 feet in length
and forty-siX feet in breadth. with Il
Soace is a61 feet long and forty-four
feet broad and has displacement of
j, TUo tons. No naval vessel of the size
of the Solace has ever been repaired at

The Game Of Policy.

"Whatever the outcome may be-" said

and takes a fair chance. I'm perfectly
willing that he should have odds in his
favor. provided they are reasonable odos
and he lets the public know just what
the chances are. In roulette or faro, 1oI

because 1 have listened while he tried to
defend it and he failed utterly. That's
saying considerable. because when 1t

policy stumps even Satan himself.

this colored fellow told me himself that
he had beaten policy for 81 500 on one

OUTLOOK NOW PACIFIC.
Believed That Austria Will Favora-
bly, Reply to England's Note.

LONDON, March 26.-Should the nego-
tiatiOns now proceeding between London
and Vienna with regard to the terms for
Servia's remuneration of her claims
against Austria Hungary prove success
full. the Necessity of calling an fhterna
tional conference to regularize the recent
changes in the Balkans probably will be
avoided. Not only has Russia given as
surances that if asked by Austria-Hun
gary she will recognize the annexation
of Bosnia and Herzegovina by the dual
monarchy. but Great Britain also has
modified her position in respect to this
annexation. In the hope of influencing
Austria-Hungary to accept his latest
formula for the Servian renunciations.
Foreign Secretary Gray has informed
Vienna that Great Britain is prepared to
accept the annexation of these two prov
inces as soon as the Servian crisis and a
few minor points are settled.
1t is expected here that this notfica-
ton will bring an immediate and favor
able reply to the British note dispatched
yesterday.

An important meeting of the advisory
board of the hygienic labratory. United

at the office of Gen. Wyman today. The
board considered especially the third sec
ton of the report on typhoid fever in
Washington. This section of tie report
is almost ready for printing. and the ad-
visory board wanted TO give it a final re-
vision from q scientific standpoint before
il was issued.
The commission typhoid was appoint
ed at the request of the District Commits
sioners and has already issued two sec
tons of its report. The third will be the
last. The continuance of typhoid in
Washington. in spite of all scientific pre-
cautions, has been one of the mysteries
of medicine in the District, and the full
report of The typhoid commission is looked
forward to as valuable contribution to
the literature of the disease.
The board also discussed the presence of
peiegra the decadent form Of insanity
and skin disease that has made such
progress recently in the south. 1t is in
tended to use all the resources of the
hygienic laboratory in making thorough
study of the disease and it's eradication.

salesman we get rid OF more of the

they wear little longer and they're
more easily cleaned.

do people buy many celiuloid collars?"
asked a customer who had overheard the
conversation.
Foxes of them said the clerk:
thousands of them. They make them
nowadays SO there's very little danger
of an explosion. and if you just go over
them lightly with n damp cloth they're
as fresh and as good as new. They Re
pretty shiny; that's the only trouble.
But they save money; that's the point.

pretty careful lately: there are more
folks who count their pennies than you'd
suspect. Besides. there are a good many
