PARIS, Aug. 31.-France still re-
mains in a state of suspense over the
outcome of the negotiations between
France and Germany relative to Mo-
rocco. While in official circles an OPP
timistic attitude is maintained that
the negotiations, which are to be re-
sumed shortly, will lead to satisfac-
tory settlement, there is certain AnX.
iety among the people because OF the
possibility of a rupture. The cOnse-
uuences of a such result are much
discussed.
On the Bourse today apprehension

Taft'S Reply To Senate
Criticisms Of His Two
Arbitration Treaties

for the arbitration treaties at the SEN
ate foreign relations committee,
which, he said, took exceptions to the
part which provides that the joint
high commission shall determine
whether a question is Unstable"
and therefore one to be settled by ar.
bitration. The committee held this
part of the treaty delegation of pow
ers by the senate, the president said,
and therefore it objected.
There were not" he said, amy
more powers conferred by the consti-
tuition on the senate than there were
conferred by the constitution on the
executive"
Referring to his hope that the SEN
ate would not modify the treaties, the
president compared the nation to a
sick Indian.
Bad Tasting Medicine Good.
you know they say the Indians
when they are sick don't like any
medicine, except something that bites,
something that is bad to take" said
the president. 81 don't think that we
shall really get ahead with this arbi-
tration business unless we are willing
to assume an obligation to execute q
judgment that may bite and may be
bad for us to take
IF we are going to take the posi-.
ton that we will wait until the ques-
ton arises and then conclude (be-
cause we don't think we can win in
the arbitration case) that it is not a
Unstable question, then we have
written our promises in water, and we
have made agreements that dissolve
under the test of experience. The re-
suit will follow, which may be antici-
pated; that, instead of promoting the
cause of arbitration, we have interior.

In the present controversy between
france and Germany over Morocco
close observers of European politics
see the attempt of Kiderlen Waechter,
the German minister of foreign affairs,
to make good his title as the Iron
Man of Europe" The minister is
termed by many a second Bismarck
because his methods in diplomacy
are similar. 1t is claimed that he has
taken advantage of the Morocco situa-
ton to secure advantage for Germany
IN other parts OF Africa, and the dan
ger is that he may Lress France too
far. 1t is claimed that the German
diplomat was led to assume a position
from which it is hard for him to re-
cede because he did not expect Great
Britain to actively support France in
the controversy. Germany desires, it
is said, a generous slice Of the French
Congo far more than concessions OF
doubtful value in Northern Africa.

BOSTON, August Arbitration
of disputes between nations is coming
slowly, but surely" said President
Taft in his address today before the
American Bar Association that con-
cluded its thirty-fourth annual conven-
ton in this city.
The president reviewed the propos.
ed general arbitration treaties with
Great Britain and France and made it
plain, that in his opinion the objec-
tons made to the treaties were in.
valid.
Taft declared that there was room
for improvement in procedure in the
federal courts, and upon us, he
said, falls the burden of initiating re
form in that respect"
The chief justice of the supreme
court of the United States, he said
had taken that matter in hand, with
his associates and the district judges,
and had called a conference in Wash
ington to formulate new rules of pro.
cedure.
Way Made for Big Man.
Taft motored from Berkely, and
when he appeared in the convention
hall he was welcomed with a hearty
cheer No formal introduction was
spoken. President Edgar H. Farrar Of
the bar association, one of the larg-
est men at the convention, merely ex-
pressed his purpose to retire in favor
of a man who was bigger than he in
all dimensions.
! Mrs. Taft came with the president
on the twenty-mile ride through the
rain, but stayed in the White House
automobile outside Huntington Hall
and did not hear the speech. Imme
diately after the address they motored
back to Beverly.

Decision to Close Estate of
Late Founder.

1t was announced yesterday that the

tate Of the late William Fl. Mcknew
and to comply with certain conditions

chandise is to be closed out and the

The retirement from business Of the
firm marks the passing of one Of the
city's best business houses, which has
for nearly fifty years maintained most
creditable reputation for merchandise of
strictly reliable quality.
The continued growth Of the business
in late years may be attributed in q
large part to the energy and shrewd
business judgment of Anton Stephan, who
has been associated with the house for
the past twenty-five years, having for
the past ten years directed its affairs as
manager. Mr.. Stephan will continue to
manage the affairs Of the Mcknew estate

many applicants for this building wher
it is vacated by the McKnew company

Seeing the loss of our leadership among
the world powers through the changes
wrought by our highly industrial civili-
zation, which, he claimed. have trans

pendents. rather than into a nation OF
freeholders and homes. as designed by
our political forefathers, Prof. w Nc
Gee, chief of the Bureau of Conservation
OF the Department of Agriculture. yes
terday afternoon struck a warning note
before the Washington Secular League
at Pythian Temple.
BY virtue of being the melting pot OF
all races. through which they inherit all
that is best physiologically. intellectu-
ally. and morally in the people of the
past, Prof. MCGEE claimed that the Ameri-
can people. with their great natural re-
sources, have the start-the right Of
way-in the trend of human progress" :"
! 1.-The progress of the world to-day is
marked by the progress of the American
people, said DR.. MCGEE. I'VE strike the
keynote in the worlds progress"
But DR.. MCGEE struck warning note
when he claimed that the development
of our vast natural resources had

wealth which threatened the sentiment OF

sacredness of the individual.
| Conservation Great Question.
This. he maintained, would assuredly
cost US our leadership among the powers
| Of the world. He was of the opinion
that the greatest question before the
American people to-day is the conserva-
ton and equitable distribution OF our
wealth and natural resources. to the end
that liberty and individuality shall be
preserved.
| Prof MCGEE was convinced that not
only the welfare of the Americans of the
| future, but the welfare of the white
race, depended upon this question. The
American continent. he declared, was to
be the future home of the white race,
Europe being untitled for that purpose.

VOTE DOWN USE OF ENGLISH
Congregation of Adas Israel Syna'
gogue Defeat Pastor.
Split Precipitated by Introduction
of Modern Methods by Rabbi
Louis I. ERelsOn.

The split in the congregation of Adas
Israel orthodox congregation over the
introduction Of English in the services at
the synagogue reached a climax yester-
day afternoon when, at a meeting Of the
congregation in the temple at Sixth and
I streets northwest. the head Of the con.
gregation, Rabbi Louis I. Egelson, was
defeated by a vote of 55 to So.
The division started several months ago
when Rabbi Egelson introduced English
into the services at the church on the
grounds that many of the children could
not understand Hebrew. His action was
vigorously opposed by many OF the con-
gregation. and their action yesterday was
the elimination of the stand they took
against the pastor.
Rabbi Egelson was appointed to the
congregation in March, 1905. Fresh from
the theological seminary, he entered into
his duties with enthusiasm and introduced
many modern innovations that were op-
posed by the congregation. His term
will expire March l, 1911.

Senator Beveridge. with characteristic

NOTIFIES NATIONS
OF END OF WORLD
" Promised Prophet Elias
Sees Deluge Near.

This is to be a troublous year for this
old world,
F. w. Kaspereit, of Chicago. who styles
himself the promised Prophet Elias, -
has sent to President Taft. as weu as
a score of the other rulers of the world,
solemn proclamations of the end of the
world. which he says he has been sent
by heaven to announce. He will begin
his world tour with his entry into Wash
ington. April Z. 1911.
This latest imitator of Elijah" Alexan-
der Dowie has penned his proclamations
in German, and has literally interspersed
them with Biblical quotations to prove
that he is the promised prophet who Is
to herald the end of the world.
In the letters, copies of which he says
he has sent to Presidents Taft and Fall
Heres as well as to seven emperOrs,
fourteen kings one grand duke. and to
Pope Plus y. he declares that he is the
prophet mentioned by the Prophet Ma
Iachi, in chapter 4 verse ): See. l will
send you the Prophet Elias. before there
cometh the great and terrible day Oh the
Lord
With this letter he promises the COM
plete revolution of the world between
April :, 1911. and April Z, 1912, and its
end. unless the world accepts his mes
sage.
For himself. the prophet" declares that
he is immortal; that all the elements. fire.
water. storm. wind. hail. lightning, light.
and darkness, contagious diseases, the
spirit of revolutions. and even the angels
of heaven, have been placed at his special
disposal and under his control until he
fulfills his mission. In compliance with
this power he has issued Il solemn proc
lamation suspending from their office al
the clergy of all nations.
The following is the itinerary, which he
announces he has been ordered to follow
| April I, 1911, Washington: May I. Rome
and Paris: July /, London; August
| Vienna: September :, Berlin; October I
st. Petersburg; November !. Stockholm
December I, Copenhagen: January Z. 1872
The Hague; February I, Lisbon; March
Madrid.
| On April :. 1912. he declares he will
| hold 4 ceremonial entry into Jerusalem
| and his mission will be over.
| He carefully announces that he will &C
cept no money. no honors, and no ova
| tions; he will visit no emperors. kings
or princes, although he will permit then
to call on him. Each day. he says. h
| will accept as gifts one meal and plac
to sleep. and where unbelievers refus
him this, he will obtain them by super
natural means, for. as he claims. he ha
1OO, 005 angels at his continued disposal.
All this sounds dangerous, but tn
prophet seems destined not to get ia
| beyond Hegewisch, ILL.,. for he Is partic
ular to announce that he will deman
free transportation" at the hands of tn
railroads-and the interstate commerc
law forbids that.
