SPY CHARGE ROUSEs ARMY
War Department Is Perturbed Over
Allegations of Girl Against Coast
Artillery Private.

Washington.-The war department,
for the first time in many years, is
perturbed over the case of an alleged
spy in the army.
Capt James Watson, the army re-
cruiting officer at Indianapolis, Ind.
has informed the department that
he holds affidavits charging Private
George Petr with being an Austrian
secret agent.
One of the papers in the possession
of Captain Watson is an affidavit of
Miss Clara A Dyer. She said Petr
was stationed at Fort Tottten, N. Y,
in the One Hundred and Thirty-ffth
company, Coast artillery corps, and
that he was an Austrian spy sent to
the United States to obtain the secret
of manufacturing the powerful ex-
plosive used by the United States
government Miss Dyer asserted she
met Petr on an ocean liner en- route
from Europe last September and later
became engaged to MIN. His real
name, she said, was Count Windisch-
Graetz and his home is at Prague,
Bohemia.

NEW YORK FLYER IN WRECK
Goes Into Ditch-Passengers Es-
cape Serious Injury.

Chicago.-While speeding along at
seventy miles an hour the Pennsyl
vania eighteen-hour special for New
York, was wrecked one mile east of
Indiana Harbor. Sixty wealthy pas
sengers, occupying the Pullman and
observation cars were severely bruised
and battered.
The accident occurred when the en-
CINE, tender and baggage car jumped
the tracks. The reason so far has
not been explained. The engine rolled
down an embankment and overturned.
When it left the track the engineer
and fireman jumped from the cab,
the latter seriously injuring himself.
That the accident was not due to
any fault of the rails is evidenced
by the fact that the passenger cars
did not leave the track, although they
came to a stop with a jar that threw
every one from their seats.

PLAN TO SETTLE DIFFERENCES
Details of Settlement Yet to
Be Worked Out.

Berlin.-Peace is in sight in the
Moroccan trouble, which for a time
threatened to shake the foundations
of Europe with a war between it's
three great poWers-England, Ger
many and France. After several weeks
of diplomatic negotiations, in which
hope of pacific solution was almost
despaired of, Germany and France
have come to terms. 1t was announced
here that Jules Cambon, the French
ambassador at Berlin, and Mai. Won
Kiderlin-W aechter, the German for
eign secretary. have found a common
ground of settlement, although the de-
tails remain to be worked out.
1t is understood that Russia played
the part of mutual friend and inter-
posed at London and Paris to take the
rough edges off the English attitude,

time was more threatening to peace
than the actual subject Of the negotia,

The imperial conference of London
mas approved the Declaration of Lon
don relating to the definition of contra
band of war and the regulations which
shall govern neutral commerce. The
declaration was drawn up by delegates
from Great Britain, France, Germany,
the United States, Japan, Russia, Italy,
Austria and Holland in 1909. 1t is the
first international attempt to settle the
question of contraband, which has h1th-
erto been decided by each belligerent
nation for itself, says the Buffalo Elk
press. Certain articles are defined out
right as contraband, subject to seizure
at any time. Others are made condl-
tionally contraband, while there is
long list of articles in which neutral
nations may trade without molestat1on.
An international prize court is pro-
yided which may adjust any disputes
that arise with the seizure of neutral
vessels. The agreement marks dis
tinct advance in civilization. It has
been hotly opposed by some conserya-
tive British authorities, but its ap-
prevail by the imperial conference in
dicates that Great Britain viii ratffy
it, as all maritime nations should do.

TAFT ISSUES PLEA
PRESIDENT ASKS SUPPORT OF
PEOPLE IN BEHALF OF ARBi-
TRATION PACTS.
METHODlsTs HEAR APPEAL
Wants Moral Influence of Nation
Used on Senators to Ratify Peace
Conventions With France, England,
Nicaragua and Honduras.

Mountain Lake Park, Md.-Presi-
dent Taft travelled 400 miles through
Maryland and West Virginia by spe-
cial train to appeal to the people of
the United States to use their moral
influence to have the senate ratify
the British and French arbitration
treaties
His appeal was made direct to the
Mountain Lake Park Chautauqua Of
the Methodist Episcopal church. but
in it the president included the rest
of the nation as well.
81 observe" said the president, that
there is some suggestion that by rati-
flying this treaty, the senate may in
some way abdicate it's function of
treaty making. I confess myself to
being unable to perceive the logic in
any such a point.
ITO have these treaties not ratified
by the senate of the United States or
to have any hesitation and discussion
of a serious character in respect to
them would halt the movement toward
general peace, which has made sub
stantiai advance in the last ten years.
To secure the ratification of the treat
les therefore, appeal must be made to
the moral sense Of the nation and
while that is not entirely in the keep
ing of the churches, certainly they
may exert a powerful influence in the
promotion of any effective instru-
mentality to secure permanent peace"
Leaving the arbitration treaties be-
hind, the president asked for the same
sort Of popular support Of the treaties
with Honduras and Nicaragua.
There is no issue before the senate
so acute in respect to the cause of
peace as the confirmation of these
Central American treaties" said the
president while I admit the greater
Importance of universal treaties of ar
bitration, in the long run and as affect
ing the world at large, yet in respect
of American interests, in respect of
peace in this hemisphere, they are
not equal in Importance to the con-
f1rmation of these Central American
treaties"
In making his plea for the Central
American conventions, the president
highly praised former President
Roosevelt He spoke of the tendency
of the United States to extend their
helping hand to less powerful people,
and instanced Mr. Roosevelt's inter-
vention in Cuba.
