FRENCH COMM|TTEEPLANS
FOR FRIENDLY RELATIONS
Representatives of Two Americas
Guests at Banquet with
Minister PiChor

PARIS, June 19.-The Franco Amer
ique committee, formed last winter un-
der the leadership of Gabriel HanotauX,
eX-minister of foreign affairs, to de-
velop closer commercial and intellect
ual relations between France and the
two Americas. has now been placed
upon solid footing.
The committee has begun the pub
lication of a monthly and practically
all the prominent men of France have
agreed to cooperate in the work.
A few days ago the committee gave
a banquet. at which NJ. Pichon, foreign
minister; Mr.. Bacon, the American am
bassador, and representatives of the
South American republics pledged their
support to the projected work.
The committee plans to open bu
reau of general information similar to
the bureau of American Republics, at
Washington.
The object of the institution is to
bring about closer understanding and
mutual sympathy between the Amer
icas and France, and from that stand
point the work will have the warm en-
couragement of the French govern
ment.
The opinion is held here that both
commercially and politically much
more power and influence will be ac-
quired by the western hemisphere, es-
pecially after the completion of the
Panama canal and this campaign has
been undertaken to increase France S
influence in the new world.

BOUNDARY DISPUTE
TO Be ARB|TRATED
Mexico Accepts Proposal of
United States for Chamizal
Settlement
tAssociated Pressl

WASHINGTON, June 19.--Mexico
has agreed to settle the Chamizal
boundary dispute by arbitration, A
convention providing the details, pro-
posed by the United States, is now
being arranged by telegraph in the
hope of getting it before the senate
before the adjournment of congress.
BY it's terms a Canadian jurist is to
hold the balance in the arbitration.
He will act as an umpire to the inter
national boundary commission and viii
be chosen by the United States and
Mexico. If they fail to agree on a
man the Canadian government will
be asked to name him. The Chamizal
tract, which was of comparatively lit
tie value when claimed first by Mex
leo in 1894, has since greatly increased
in value by the growth of the city of
El Paso, which it adjoins. 1t is esti-
mated to be worth from one to five
million dollars.
The United States has always ex-
ercised civil and criminal jurisdiction
and has maintained a customs house
there. Many questions of International
title to property in the tract are now
held in abeyance in the federal court
pending a settlement of the dispute.
Pending the arbitration the United
States agrees to continue the state
of proceedings against settlers claim
ing prima facie Mexican title who were
in actual occupancy March Is. None
others are to receive protection. That
provision is intended to cover the cases
of squatters who have taken advan-
tage of the dispute to take up terri
tory. The state department will ap-
point an agent to examine the genu-
inc Mexican titles and decide which
are entitled to protection of this gov
ernment.

SHOOTS At WIFE
At DINNER PARTY
Edward Traversy, a Bartender,
Says Spouse Was Flirting
with Guest
BUSHES INTO ROOM AND FIRES
Is Overcome by Accused Man
After Visitors Flee from
House

Believing that his wife was flirting
with a guest, Edward Traversy, 40
years old, ran from the dining room
of his home at s2S East Adams street.
where he was entertaining a party of
friends last night, and fired a shot at
the woman. Mrs. 3. c. Franklin of
1647 West Fifty-third street, one of the
guests, prevented Traversy from firing
another shot and argued with him un-
til Neil Colgan seized the enraged hus-
band and overpowered him. Traversy
was taken into custody by Patroman
Finn and booked at the central police
station on charge of assault with a
deadly weapon.
Traversy. who suffered a laceration
above the left eye and a confusion on
the left cheek as the result of his
struggle with Colgan, denied that he
attempted to kill the woman and shot
only to protect his home. He is said
to have been drinking heavily.
Late in the afternoon Mr. and Mrs.
Traversy, Genevieve Bell. IS years old.
the step-daughter of Traversy; C. c.
Thompson of S3S East Adams street:
Neil r. Colgan, a member of the firm
of n. Colgan & Sons, 635 South Main
street. and Mrs. B. c. Franklin of 1647
West Fifty-third street. formed a party
that motored to Baldwin's ranch, where
the Traversys entertained at the home
of a friend. Later the party inspected
some real estate and then returned to
the city.
On reaching the Traversy home,
where a dinner was awaiting the party.
Traversy became sullen and seemed
angered at Mrs. Traversy and young
Colgan. The guests hardly had seated
themselves at the table when Traversy
accused Colgan and Mrs. Trayersy of
making love to each other.
The husband ran from the room and
reappeared with revolver and a der
ringer. Without word of warning,
so the police say, he fired at Mrs
Traversy. The guests became fright
ened and all ran from the room ex-
cept Mrs. Franklin. The latter blocked
Traversy's attempt to follow his wife
and held his attention until Colgan re-
entered the room and seized Traversy
from the rear. A sharp struggle fol-
lowed. and Colgan. who is large
man, soon overpowered Traversy and
held him.
Traversy is employed as bartender
for George Gordan, who conducts a
saloon in Sixth street, near Main street.

CONGRESS To END
WORK THIS WEEK
Leaders Expect Adjournment Will
Be Not Later Than
Saturday
SESSION A REC0RD-B BREAKER
All Big Administration Measures
Have Been Pushed Through
by Taft
SESSION A RECORD BREAKER
ssoc,ated Press1

WASHINGTON, June 19.-Congres-
sional leaders confidently expect to
wind up the present session this week
and adjourn not later than Saturday.
II the session is carried beyond that
time it will be because of amendments
to the general deficiency bill or COM
plications in connection with the omni-
bus public building bill
1t is pointed out by Republican
leaders that there never has been a
congress where a president has OBJ
tanned the amount of legislation as has
resulted from the demands of Presi-
dent Taft Starting in with demand
for revision of the tariff, he procured
this at an extraordinary session; then
at the beginning of the present session
he demanded railroad legislation; a
forward conservation policy; state
hood for New Mexico and Arizona;
postal savings banks, and the regula-
tion of injunctions.
ALL BUT ONE PASSED
Bills on all these subjects have
passed both branches of congress with
the exception of the anti-injunction
measure. That will have to wait until
next session, but it Is said the pros
poets are good for its passage at that
time.
All the regular supply bills have
deficiency bill. That was passed by
the house Saturday and will be report
ed to the senate not later than Tues
day.
The postal savings bank bill is still
before the senate. IT came from the
house in the form of an amended bill,
and Senator Carter moved that the sem
ate concur in the house amendments.
Opposition developed and the motion
has been debated internationally since
the bill returned from the house
President Taft approves of the house
bill. and it seems reasonably certain
that the senate will accept it.
AWAITS SIGNATURE
The rivers and harbors bill is await
ing the presidents signature. and he
soon will have the omnibus public
buildings bill. With both of these
measures before him he is in a. position
to command that action be taken on
such other legislation as he feels
should pass.
President Taft tomorrow will sign the
statehood bill. 1t is likely that there
will be a number of claimants for the
pen used in signing that historic in
strument President Taft probably
will use two pens in approving the
bill and give one to Delegate Andrews.
of New Mexico and the other to Del
egate Cameron of Arizona.

DRY DOCK DEWEY WILL
Be FL0ATED THIS WEEK
Navy Department Dismayed al
Thought of Useless War
Time Facility

WASHINGTON June 19.-The dry
dock Dewey, which recently sank at
Olongapo, will be afloat again sthis
week, as the wreckers have made eX-
cellent progress.
The. reason for the sinking of the
monster drydock has not yet been
learned. The suggestion that holes
have been found in the side of the
dock and that the Dewey may have
rusted away is made. though the
Dewey has been in tropical waters but
four years. Another suggestion is that
electrolysis has caused the damage.
The strategists of the navy depart
ment are dismayed at the thought
that the Dewey, the only dry dock
available for american use in time of
war in the far east, may be useless.

COMBINE BELIEFS
AND INTELLIGENCE
President HadIey Tells Yale Grad
yates to Weigh Religion
Carefully
POINTS TO MISTAKES OF AGE
Says Confidence in Science May
Be Carried to Scientific
Bigotry
POINTS TO MISTAKES OF AGE
TAssociated Pressl

NEW HAVEN, Conn.,, June 19.-The
baccalaureate sermon to the Yale grad
uating class was delivered today by
President Arthur T. Hadley. His ad-
Dress in part, follows:
"Thank God, gentlemen, that you are
born in an age of faith and into a land
of faith Many good people will tell
YOU that this is an age when faith has
decayed; an age when the human race
has lost its belief in the things that
are most necessary to its life here and
hereafter. This is a wrong, however.
I'VE have lost faith in some things,
but we have gained faith in others;
and the faiths that we have gained are
greater in number and Importance and
Inspiration than the faiths that we
have lost. We have lost faith in signs
and portents and supernatural mani
festations of power, in certain dogmas
and formulas once supposed to be
essential to salvation. We have gained
i'm their place faith in man. faith in
law. faith in the truths of nature and
faith in the justice of God.
BE THOUGHTFUL
I'VE must not, indeed, disregard the
feelings and prejudices of those VINO
were brought up in the older faith by
or disregard of their observances: but
we may thank God that our faith rests
on surer foundation than the complete
ness of the evidence for this or that
miracle, or than the verbal authen-
ticity of this or that scriptural passage.
But do we see straight? Do we
face things as they are? l wish [
could think the world today is as sound
of head as it is of heart. The things
our good men is intelligence.
There are several classes of mis-
takes to which the present age is es-
pecially subject. Our faith in man may
lead us into an easy-going tolerance
that is neither intelligent nor Chris
tian. Our faith in society may lead us
to condone the mistakes ifnot the ex-
cesses of Socialism. Our faith in sci
ence may be carried to the point of
scientific bigotry. Our faith that God
is fighting on the side of right may
blind us to the responsibilities that we
ourselves have in that fight.
DEMANDS INTELLIGENCE
There is no field-I say it reverently
in which it is so necessary to com
hine intelligence with faith, as in our
idea of God. In former years we were
bound down by creeds that described
in detail Gods attributes and Gods
wishes. You accepted Him as He was
pictured in those creeds. or you re-
jected Him altogether Today we try
to judge for ourselves regarding Gods
attributes. and Gods wishes.
"Of all responsibilities that go with
the exercise of private judgment, this
is the greatest.
you call your God the God of JUS
tice; see to it that your faith takes
such shape that you could worship Him
only by doing justice. You call your
God the God of Love; see to it that
your faith is so shaped as to make you
give love instead of merely trying to
receive it. You call Him the God of
Battles; see that your trust in Him is
an inspiration to you to take your part
in the battles both with courage and
with intelligence"
