WANT UNCLE SAM TO PROPOSE
England Looks to United States in
Settling international Disputes.
LONDON PAPERS ENTHUSIASTIC
EnsIishmen Nervous About Treaty
that Might Drag Them Into a
war with the Amer
leans.

LONDON. March 1S-(Spocisi CabiegramD
Sentiment in the United Kingdom is al
most absolutely solid in backing up Sir
Edward Grey's virtual invitation to the
United States to propose-in the language
OF Mr.. Taft, before the American society
for the judicial settlement of international
disputes-the enactment of a London
Washington treaty ito abide the adiudi-
cation OF an international arbitral court in
every issue that cannot be settled by arbi-
tration."
Mr.. Taft employed the phrase some
great nation" and Grey responded in Mr.
Roosevelt's favorite ejaculation de
lighted"
Among the strongest arguments to
justify the attempt to make such a treaty
now is the theory that the American senate
which defeated the Olney- Pauncefoote pro-
posals in 1897. partly because Of Irish
American agitation. and partly because the
senate wished to assert its authority. would
not have the former obstacle to overcome
inasmuch as all Irish-Amerieans are well
wishers Of the Asquith-Grey administra-
ton. sos '"."
Ready TO Sign Up.
To carry out Mr.. Taft's idea. it is argued.
would be only to resume the negotiations
Of nearly fourteen years ago and to make
suitable notifications in an instrument
that the British government has always
been ready to sign and that commended it.

challenged uE with the Venezuela mes

As the court Of srbitral justice suggested
by Mr.. Taft would base its decisions not
upon compromise but upon principles Of
a M Nd a.
end review, the most important and
beneficient achievement OF the twentieth
century, short Of universal disarmament -
Sir Edward Grey's speech first aroused
a suspicion that II was a red herring
dragged across the course of the naval
debate, where government is in a tight
corner, being pursued both by the op-
position for not making the fleet large
enough, and by the radicals for making IL
too large. But this suspicion has dlsap-
peared.
A strong radical like J. NJ Robertson
NJ p, confesses that he always found
Sir Edward better than his word and
animated by a noble enthusiasm for the
highest purposes despite his narrow whig
traditions and his purely bureaucratic
career.
The most remarkable enthusiasm here is
that Of the imperialist papers, such as
the Daily Telegram, the Times, the Ex-
press and the Daily Mail. which are as
wildly enthusiastic as the Quaker Daily
News All the churches are united behind

A company is being formed at the

Manufacturing company, TO erect six
story building covering a quarter of a
block at the southeast corner of Ninth
and Douglas, for several implement
houses. which are in Inadequate quarters
or which will be compelled to move within
year.
An option has been taken on the two
lots, except a corner tract, 22X6O feet, be-
longing to the Schlitz Brewing com
pany, and the closing OF the deal de-
ponds upon the Willingness OF the Schlitz
company to sell the remaining tract. j.
E. Bekins of the Omaha Van & Storage
company IS the present owner OF the
lots.
The Baker Manufacturing company,
with headquarters at Jenesville, WIS,
and a branch house at So Farnam
street, is a wealthy concern, and 1t is
thought plans to furnish most Of the
funds for the proposed structure
The building would be an implement
transfer house, and an institution which
Omaha has long needed, according to
implement men. There is at present but
one small transfer house in Omaha.

in which Leppin and his son lived was
burned. When the flremen arrived they
did not find the place occupied.
Leppin's son, Martin, aged about 25
years. said TO be weak mentally, IL
missing. and both Omaha and Council
Bluffs arc being searched for him.
Whether Leppin committed suicide or
was murdered and robbed, the police are
unable TO say, Evidences at the spot
where the body was found indicate that
the aged man might have been murdered
and dragged to the place. The absence Of
the son lends further mystery TO the
tragedy.
The robbery theory is given strength
in the fact that three days ago Leppln
drew from the Milwaukee $50 in return
for his services. When found the only
money on his person was sell.
The suicide theory is given some
strength by the fact that a few days ago
Leppin was laid off by the railroad COM
pany, and since that time he spent much
time brooding over the forced inactivity.
