VIE IN WORDS OF PRAISE
Carnegie and Straus in Com
hat" Before Peace Society.

There was something of combat at the
reception OF the New York Peace Society
YESTERDAY afternoon. The society invited
IT'S members To take part In reception for
Oscar s Straus and Mrs. Straus. Every
one knows that Mr.. StraEs has been twice
Minister and once Ambassador to Turkey.
It was only yesterday that he resigned.
Fewer persons may recall that Mr.. Straus
was the first president Of the New York
Peace society The last named circum-
stance had not little to do in starting
the struggle between Mr.. Straus and An
drew Carnegie, the present head Of that
organization.
Mr. Carnegie got started first, and ii NaS
hard for Mr. Straus to overtake him. Each
was energetic and sincere. The contest
was on for an hour and a half as to who
could utter the most heartfelt euloGy OF
the chara tier and work OF the other. Nj.
Carnegie reviewed the record Of Mi. Straus
as Minister aid Ambassador TO Turkey
said in a crisis there would he a unanimous
call for his return there. and added; He
is the only man who has been sent three
times to the same foreign power. He is a
great peacemaker-and blessed are the
peacomakers"
Mr.. Straus replied that he vas keenly
appreclative OF the honor Of being present
cd to the audience by the Prince OF
Peace" The speaker then supported with
much feeling MIR. Carnegie's plan for the
esta blishment OF a court Of nations, where
all international questions might be peace
fully settled
"Armaments will be limited. armaments
will ne cut down, armaments ~ill he
pushed aside" said Mr. Straus. "as soon
as the nations are satisfied that their diff
ferences can come before such court for
the adjustment of their rights and all those
things that pertain to their sovereiGnty.'
Mr. and Mrs. Straus and Mr.. and Mrs.
Carnegie held reception after the ad-
fressas
