ALDRICH HAS HIGH
 HOPES ON FINANCE

Providence, R. l., March AT hope to live to see New Y ork Boston or Phila- delphia the financial center of the world said Senator Nelson w. Aldrich, chair man of the national monetary commis- sion. to an audience of bankers and pro- fessional men. representing an aggregate wealth of $2oo. .0oO,0oo here tonight. He was advising the Economic club on the work of the commission.
 From Mexico to Cape Horn," said MT. Aldrich, "there are great nations that ought to be allied to us. You can not imagine the possibilities of trade in the Orient and in reawakened China. But we can never trade successfully with them until the United States, by virtue of its great resources, becomes the financial center of the world
 Senator Aldrich in his speech let it be inferred that he strongly favored cen tral bank. He predicted a settlement of the question of a financial system for this country at large would be a compromise between the advocates of the various plans.
 ''The worst blow to the prestige of the United States would come if we admitted we could not settle this question without the influence of politics. he added

Nicardgudn Insurgents
 Seeking Intervention

Bluefelds, Nicaragua. March 4,--After three days of secret conferences there is today every reason to believe that General Estrada, the leader of the revolutionists, and his advisers, reluctantly have ac- quiesced in the demand of American res ldents in Nicaragua that a receptive ear be turned to any proposal of American in- tervention which will guarantee to them the rights demanded and the denial of which caused the revolution
 The original demand of the revolution sts included the overthrowing of Presi- dent Zelaya, which was accomplished, and the restoration to the people of the constitutional and common rights of cit izens, which it was alleged had been taken from them under the regime of Zeaya.
 While General Estrada General Diaz and Riveria and the other conferees are absolutely silent concerning the matter. their frequent calls upon Thomas P. Mof- fat the American consul. who also de- clines to talk. are considered to give sup port to this view.
 It is safe to say that General Chamor- ro's defeat has not altered the views of the people on tho east coast of Nicaragua as to the guarantees that are necessary to peace Undoubtedly they will demand the fulfillment of each principle for which the armies have fought as President Mad rig has subsequently admitted the jus tice of. +
 American interests in Nicaragua will insist that the payment of the revolution ary debts must be a part of any agree ment reached, and in this view of the sit llation they have the adherence of the provisional government

House Committee Asks
 For Proofs From Peary

Washington, March 4.-Proofs of Commander R. F. Peary's discovery of the north pole caused an altercation in the sub committee of the House on naval affairs today. Two members of the National Geographic society ap- peared before the committee with copies of MT. Peary's proofs to urge the granting of a suitable reward by Con l. sress to the noted explorer. but the conference with the ultimate result that the committee has made it known that unless the Peary proofs are forth coming to the full satisfaction to the committee that every bill introduced for the purpose of rewarding the north pole discoverer would be pigeonholed.
 Three members of the committee were in favor of receiving the Peary proofs without making them public. Representative Macon hotly objected and after declaring his position stalked quickly from the room.
 'I am against any Legislation com. mitted in the dark" MT. Macon sharply calculated. "F'urthermore, if this com mittee decides in favor of Peary with out inspecting the full records and making them public, ] will expose the whole business on the floor of the House or in statement to the press. If we reward MT. Peary, the Amer icsn people have a right to know what we are rewarding him for"
 Professor Gannett of the coast and geodetic survey and one of the mem bers of the National Geographic society which accepted Peary's proofs told the

The Cummins amendment to the Shoot amendment limiting to times of war the exigencies in which the postal funds may be withdrawn from the banks in which they are deposited. was the technical sub ject of discussion during the entire sitting, and during that time there were many rather acrid exchanges of views.
 Senator Root dwelt especially upon the necessity of protecting the credit of the country and he appealed strongly to the patriotism of senators in that interest. MT Carter strongly seconded this appeal and drew even more vivid picture of the possibility of an unexpected national de- mand for funds than was presented by the New York senator.
 Both Senators Clay and Cummins charged MT. Root with inconsistency in originally presenting an amendment pro- hibiting the withdrawal of the postal funds from the local banks and following that up with another provision authoriz- ing such withdrawal In the contingency of need for the funds by the government. spoke at length.
 MT. Shoot defended his course as due to the fact that he had been convinced of the unconstitutionality of the proposed law without some provision justifying 1t under the borrowing clause of the consti- tuition.
 Senator Carter stated frankly that his change of position was due to the parlia- mentary necessity of putting the bill In such shape as to assure a majority vote for it.

committee that MT. Peary would not let the committee have the proofs for public purposes because he wanted them for use in newspaper and mag azine articles. R
 The professor had with him a copy of the proofs but declined to submit them. He told the committee he had not the slightest doubt that Peary reached the pole. He told of the tidal observations which Commander Peary had taken ana sent back to the department from time to time. which he said were of great value These filled q volumes he said.
 Professor Gannett told of the sound ings MT. Peary took in the vicinity of the pole and of the explorer hay Ing to go distance of 10 miles past the pole in order to make certain that he was at the extreme top of the earth.
 The soundings made 40 miles from the pole were at a depth of 1240 fath- oms. Another was taken within five miles of the pole, but Peary lost the heavy lead and couple of pick eads. which they had let down to furnish the necessary weight with which to make the soaudings.
 Representative Alexander of New York was present as the personal rep resentative of MT. Peary and told the committee that the latter would bo glad to have the committee examine the records. but he would have to. see MT. Peary again and learn whether he would consent to have them publish ed.
 The committee will take up the sub ject again next Tuesday and if Mir. Peary's proofs are submitted it is in tended to nave scientists there to ex- anime them on behalf of the commit tee,

PASSENGER COACHES AND
 BODIES OF VICTIMS ARE
 BURIED 75 FEET IN ICE

Wellington, Wash, March 4.-Those dig the avalanche made little progress today and late this afternoon only 40 dead had been brought out, leaving 45 passengers and railroad men, and an unknown num- Ter of laborers, in the gorge where two Great Northern trains were buried Tues gay.
 The searchers are working by daylight only.
 The Great Northern railroad today sent in 15 Alaskan sleds on which the bodies will be taken to Skykomish.
 Superintendent O'Neil's private car. con ing the bodies of Trainmaster A. K. Blackburn and Secretary Longcoy, was found today.
 Of TOO sacks of mail carried away by the avalanche only 150 have been re- covered
 No trace whatever of one car and seven clerks and weighers remains. In some places cars are known to be under 10 feet of trees. snow, earth and rocks.
 The Great Northern Is using all the re- sources at its command to open the tracks.
 Superintendent O'Neil estimates the act ual loss to the road by destruction of property at s1 .00O,0O0
 Cold rain and increasing fear of snow slides added to the gloom of Welling ton today.
 Two bodies were sent down the trail and the others wrapped in blankets are lying in a railroad building. The recbv- cry of bodies will be slow until the loco motives arrive to pull away the giant

Cotton Brokers Bulling The
 Tail End Of e Short Crop

for prices to go, and that is upward. In Texas there has been comparatively lit tie rain. Liverpool has at times bought May here quite freely. Manchester trade Is reported better.
 Bulls insist that there is very large short interest in that month, and add that there may be interesting develop ments later on. Spot markets, in most of the south, are quiet. Curtailment of production is persistent at home and abroad. Ellison, the English statistician insist that the worlds consumption of American cotton this year will be 11.50o,- 900 bales. against about 13, 100, 600 last year Unfavorable reports have been received about the yarn and cloths markets in the east and south and to some extent in Europe.
 Critics on the rise assert that prices are simply being put up with view of enabling large operators to sell out cot ton which they have been holding for some months past. The outside public badly bitten during the winter holds aloof A big acreage is probable. and under ordinary circumstances a. big crop this year will be grown. The new crop months, therefore, have been hard to move. Nevertheless, as already inti mated. bullish speculation has for the time being dominated the market.

Final Decree Of Divorce Is
 Given To Mrs. John J. AStOr

The understanding Is that a settle ment of all. money matters was arrived at privately before the decree was signed and 1t is probable that the ex- act amount allowed Mrs. Astor will never be known. It has not been tn policy of the Astor estate to allow money to get out of the family. There fore, it seems likely that no lump sum has been settled on her. but rather that she will enjoy a stipulated income during her life time or so long as she remains single. aE waf . Colonel Astor- is one of the, rich est men in the United States and the As tor estate is one of the largest hold CTS of real estate in the world. It was reported on one hand that Mrs. Astor will receive s10.0oO,0 900 outright and on the other that she will get the comparatively modest allowance of Sb0,000 year. But no one with knowl- edge of the facts Is prepared to speak for quotation The unusual interval between the granting of the interloc utory decree and the filing today of application for final judgment leads to the report that there was haggling over the exact sum to be awarded and there is general belief that the S5O,- 000 Is nearer the truth than s10,- 000,0 ,000

New York. March 4.-Beneath the signature which made final today the interlocutory decree of divorce previ- ously granted Mrs. Ava Willing Astor from her husband, Col. John Jacob As- tor Justice Isaac Mills, sitting at White Plains, wrote this afternoon, the clerk of Duchess county is hereby ordered not to seal the above final judgment"
 The decree. however, as filed tonight at Poughkeepsie, the county seat, makes little known that had not been forejudged in popular estimate. There appears the bald statement that the marriage Is dissolved by reason of statutory offense on the part of the de- fendant but no money settlement Is mentioned, the name of the core spondent is not given and none of the testimony taken by the referee is avail able-nothing but the decree itself.
 The plaintiff may remarry but not the defendant Custody of William Vincent Astor the son, Is given to the father with the provision that the mother may see him when she wishes and cus- tody of the daughter, Ava Alice Mur- fell, is awarded the mother with pro- vision that the father may see her at all reasonable times.

FATE OF POSTAL SAVINGS BANK BILL STILL HANGS
 WATERING IN THE SENATE

Washington, March 4-After laboring today for about six hours in an atmos- phere surcharged with the electricity gen. erated by sharp conflict of opinion the Senate again failed to reach & vote on the postal savings bank bill, and once more took 8 recess until the following day.
 The result of this action is that the legislative day of March Is continued until tomorrow and will create an uncer- tainty as to final action then. When the recess was taken Senator Carter stated that seven or eight senators had expressions to deliver and said he did not undertake to indicate an opinion as to how many other speeches there might be forthcoming which these might pro- yoke.
 Not during the several weeks that the postal bill has been before the Senate has there been day of debate approach ing in any degree the proceedings of today. Beginning at Il 80 o'clock the flow of oratory continued without in teruptions until after 5 o'clock when in utter despair of reaching the end. MT Carter moved a recess until 11:45 a. m tomorrow, when the linguistic exercises will be resumed
 During the day there were speeches by Senator Root. Carter Cummins, Raynor. Clapp, Borah. Clay, Newlands and number of others representing almost as many views as there were speakers.
