RELIEF FELT IN WASHINGTON
The Eff CT OF the Change In the
Mex can Si+uat on--Hope
for Speedy Peace.

Washington, d. C.-President Taft
and official Washington generally
quickly learned of the sudden shift
in the Mexican situation, the an
nouncement of President Diaz that
he would resign in the interest OF
peace and the previous order of
Francisco Madero for the trekking
of the insurrecto forces southward
from the border and on toward the
capital. The news of the withdrawal
OF insurrectionary forces from a posi-
tion so close to the American towns
as to constitute a constant source OF
friction and a menace to the good
feeling between the two peoples was
viewed here with relief and the later
announcement from Mexico of the
presidents lf-effacement to effect
peace in his troubled country, was In
line with the Washington administra-
tion's hope for peace and Mexican
Ambassador Zamacona's recent pre-
diction that peace soon would be re-
stored.

JAPANESE TREATY
AS SECOND step
Lyman Abbott Points Way tor
Next Arbitration Move.
STOP BUYING BONDS FOR WAR
Mr.. Hunda Says His Country Would
Willingly Do Anything to Strength
en- It's Friendship With
This Country.

Baltimore. Md. - Overshadowing
the opinions presented by men Of nat
ional repute for worldwide arbitra-
tion at the National Peace Congress
in Baltimore was a striking utter
auce by Dr. Lyman Abbott, editor OF
the Outlook and associate of Theo-
dore Roosevelt. He urged that the
United States, after agreeing on a
treaty of arbitration with England,
should frame a similar one with
Japan.
Nothing. he said, could safeguard
the western coast of the country, the
Philippines and the Hawaiian Islands
better than such a treaty. His ad-
dress was made of more import by
the statement OF Mr.. Hunda, editor
OF a japanese newspaper in New
York, that Japan was in a receptive
mood for arbitration and wanted the
friendship of the United States.
In substantiation of the outlook
for peace between Japan and the
United States, Price Collier, author
and traveller, said that Japan's great
est problem was not war, but bank
ruptcy, and that, logically, she would
be a peaceful neighbor of this coun-
try.
Mr.. James Speyer, the noted New
York fnancier, struck an entirely
new note by making the assertion
from his knowledge of international
finances that the one effective way
to stop foreign wars is to stop buy
ing the bonds of countries which
desire to use the money for warfare
Representative Slayden, Of Texas
said the Monroe doctrine should bC
discarded-in part, that the United
States. by treaties, should recognize
the territorial rights of South Ameri
can republics and allow the countries
to be developed by foreign capital, al
opportunity which, he said, was re
tarded now by the Monroe doctrine.

Cord0va, Alaska The excitement
caused by the governments failure
TO hurry action in Alaska coal-land

800 business men and citizens formed
mob and, armed with shoyels,
marched to the ocean dock Of the
Alaska Steamship Company, where
they proceeded to throw several hun
dred tons OF British Columbia coal

action was taken as a desperate
means of drawing attention to the
state of affairs in Alaska. The citi-
zens decided to follow the example
set by the Boston tea party and
thus express the serious crisis that
has been reached in the Alaska coal
situation. For several days the senti-
ment In favor OF some public out
burst has been quietly growing.
When the cable dispatches from
Washington failed to bring news Of
President Taft having acknowledged
the receipt Of the appeals from
Alaska feeling increased, and the
call to arms, which in this instance
means a call to shovels, was sounded.
Among those who participated in
"the coal party" we're A. ]. Adams,
president OF the chamber Of com
merce: ex-Mayor w. H. Chase and
Councllmen James Flynn and Charles

to disperse, but President Adams, OF

"Shovel away, boys We want
only Alaska coal"
Demand was then made In the
name of the United States to dis

This demand was needed, merchants
returning to their places of business
