Conference Was informal.
"The conference was informal" said
Mr.. Fairbanks. but was satisfactory.
The whole subject Of what Is needed
for better forestry In Indiana was can
yassed and the different aspects we're
freely discussed. The sentiment pre-
vailed that public.spirited citizens who
realize the great Importance OF the
/ undertaking for the future OF the state
should be enlisted In the movement
for the conservation OF existing for
ests and the planting Of more trees.
Those present were In general accord
as to the wisdom Of securing the CO.
operation Of the schools and colleges
in this work"
President Stone of Purdue. empha-
sized the need for systematic educa.
ton In the value Of forestry to be car.
ried on In the schools. He said the
arbor day movement In the schools
was not sufficient to instill into the
minds OF students the value OF tree
planting. as arbor day is not systemat-
ically observed IN all the schools.
The trees and forests have de-
cided influence on the public health
said Dr. Hurty.. They assist In the
purification Of the atmosphere. Co
Ing to the woods is beneficial for peo-
pie. They recognize this fact instinc-
lively. Trees conserve the water sup
ply. as they let the water out into the
streets gradually. We must not consid-
or that the sole benefit of reforestiza-
ton will be a money benefit. II will
be a great benefit for the health

TAFT RAILROAD BILL TO
PASS SENATE TODAY.
But One Republican Expected to
Oppose Measure.

WASHINGTON, June 2.-Wh1le clear
ing up minor amendments to the admin
istration railroad bill, which had been
nut off until the last, Republican and
Democratic leaders in the Senate today
busted themselves with canvasses to
ascertain what the final vote was likely
to be. At lis D. mS it was regarded as
certain that the vote would be taken
before adjournment today, that all OF
the Republicans would be recorded for
the bill, except possibly one, and that
all but six or seven Of the Democrats
would be recorded against it.
The Republican whose vote is II
doubt is Senator Bourne He has no!
stated how he stands, but the genera
impression is that he is opposed TO INC
hill. One of the Democratic leaders
said that If there were danger of the
defeat of the bill through Democratic
votes not one Of the minority wou'o
vote against the bill, notwithstanding
the fact that it was called admins
tration measure. He said that as
amended the bill contained far more
good than bad It's final passage is as
sured.

UNITED STATES
WILL NOT TAKE:
PART IN REVOLT
Ncaraguans Must Settle Own
Differences, Say Officials of
the State Department.

WASHINGTON, June 2.-The United
States, 1t was officially declared today.
has no present intention of assuming
a protectorate over Nicaragua or in
any way intervening or recognizing
either party to the controversy until
one faction or the other has obtained
full control of the country and ma
chinery of the government by the con-
sent of the people, and is in a position
to meet national and international OBJ
legations.
BLUEFIELDS, Nicaragua. June D.
DIR. Julian Irias, the representative on
the Atlantic coast of President Madriz,
has issued a decree that vessels cleared
for Bluefields on or after June l may
not enter this port without the permis-
sion of the Madriz government.
The decree sets forth that all ship
ping which cleared for Bluefields be-
fore the date mentioned will be per-
mitted to enter the harbor after the
payment of custom duties at the GUS
tom house on Bluefields Bluff, which
was recently captured and Is still held
by the government troops.
The official decree was issued from
aboard the Nicaragua war vessel Venus
and if it's provisions are observed 1t
will mean that the coastwise traffic will
be absolutely in the control Of Presi-
dent Madriz and the consequent weak
ening of the position of the insurgents
at Bluefields.
What VIII U. 8. Dot
Whether the United States govern
ment will allow the Nicaraguan gov-
ernment to say what vessels shall enter
the chief Eastern seaport Of the coun-
try or under what conditions such en-
trance shall be made. is a matter OF
doubt here, where a decision in the
matter by Secretary Knox is anxious
ly awaited.
The district to the north embraced by
the Prinzapulka and the Rio Grande
rivers is rich in mining and agricul-
tural interests, owned chifiey by Amer
leans The exports from that territory
to Bluefields are important, and If the
government should decide to hold up
the vessels engaged in moving them
with the purpose of cutting off the in
surgent source of supplies, the situa-
ton from the standpoint of General
Estrada would be rendered more sert-
Gus.
Hope is found in the fact that the de-
cree may have been issued before DR..
Irias had been officially informed Of
the attitude at Washington toward the
collection of customs duties at this port
Secretary Knox, having decided that
the insurgents. although driven out of
the Bluff, and having abandoned the
custom house to the government forces.
may still collect customs at some other
point, encourages the belief that the
American government will again inter-
vene to the ultimate advantage of the
revolutionists.

SAYS HAvEMEYER
! ORDERED HIM TO
MAKE LOW TESTS
Gerbracht, Defendant in Sugar
Fraud Cases. Forced to
Admit CrOOkedness.

NEW YORK, June ERNEST w.
Gerbracht's effort to put the RESPONSE
bility for sugar under-weighing frauds
superintendent of the American Sugar
Refining Company's Williamsburg
docks, or by implication upon men now
dead, was sharply attacked by Prose-
cutor Henry L. Stimson at the resump-
tion of the sugar conspiracy trial to-
day. Gerbracht was superintendent cf
the Williamsburg refinery during the
period when the cheating devices on
the scales were in use.
Mr.. Stimson questioned Gerbracht on
REORGANIZATION awhile today as to
how he accounted for discrepancies be-
tween government weights and refinery
weights in the technical statements
without getting much information out
of the witness. Then he took new
tack. = e.e-.
"Now, | think that you said that
H. o. Havemeyer directed you to falsify
the reports on the tests of raw sug&r?"
said Mr.. Stimson.
mo, did not; never said any such
thing" exclaimed Gerbracht, excitedly.
IT think you testified that he told you
to make the tests of raw sugar low?"
continued Mr.. Stimson.
mo, sir; he told me to keep them
low," corrected Gerbracht.
"Well" said Mr. Stimson, with note
of triumph in his voice, "the difference
seems only to be a slight one in
verbiage. AS matter of fact, did not
this amount to a direction to affect the
price paid to the sugar merchant from
whom the sugar was bought?"
mo; it referred only to the cost of
refining sugar"
Mr.. Stimson thereon read into evil
dence letters to show that the figures
Of the tests were changed time and time
again. Gerbracht explained that he did
not make the tests personally They
were made in the refinery room.
Nov, didn't you make the tests lower
than their true figures?" asked Mr..
Stimson.
Eyes"
"And didn't Mr. Havemeyep<tell you
to?" KY y
yes ~
80, now you don't object tot y say
ing that Mr.. Havemeyer directed you to
falsify the tests?"
IT do; he didn't"
do you mean to say there's a. differ
ence between falsifying tests and keep
ing testings lower than their true
figure?"
Eyes, there is a difference"
What is the difference? What do
YOU mean ?" asked Mr.. Stimson.
IT mean there was no true test in
polarization," said Gerbracht.
"Why did you Use the polarization
test if 1t was not true? To fool the
sugar -growers?"
IT don't know" answered the wit
ness.
"Well, I would like to know the ethi-
cal basis of this practise" observed
Mr.. Stirnson.
