the Cincinnati Law School was
called upon for an address, during
the course of which he said:
Enormous Military Expense.
ut Is said that Russia spends
more than one-third of all her rev.
enue for military purposes. Ger
many, with a debt of more than
two billion marks, spends annual
ly more than FIVE million marks
on her army and navy. France
has a debt Of about thirty-two
billion francs, largely the cost OF
past wars. Great Britain has q
debt Of f621, 100000 and spends
annually more than $4,000, 600
on her army and navy.
FOR the last fifteen years
the world has spent annually
one thousand millions OF dol
lars In sustaining war equip
ments."
He then referred to the good
that might have been done with
this money.
Principal speakers at tonight's
session will be Samuel Gompers

They attribute his es-- capes to a hardy constitution and re- smarkab1e nerve. When he left the St. John Hospital, in Yonkers, Tuesday, cured of appendicitis. although hope had been abandoned of his ever getting over 1t, he was smiling and just as con- fident of enjoying long life as he was after he was blown up with the Maine. and again after barely escaping death when The General Slocum burned.
 Downs was taken to the hospital sev- eral weeks ago and underwent an op- eration for appendicitis. He had de- layed the visit to the institution so long that the surgeon said he could not re- cover. For days he was hourly expect ed to die, but Downs surprised the sur geons with his wonderful vitality.
