SENATE PASSES RESOLUTION
LIMITING LIFE OF MONETARY
COMMISSION -- HOUSE WILL
FAVOR IT.

Washington, Aug. 1.-THE nat
ional nonetery commission which is
headed by Former Senator Aldrick
must wind up its business by Janu-
airy If the house takes favorable ac-
ton on the measure adopted by the
senate today limiting the commits
sions life to that date.
Today's action followed a storm of
criticism that recently has broken in
the senate over the commissions de-
lay in making a report of its alleged
extravaganza. The senate passed a
for the Cummins' resolu-
ton. which would terminate the COM
life September 5th.
The monetary commission thus far
has encountered little trouble in the
house but it is anticipated the SEN
ate resolution will be called up for
action In the house before adjourn
ment. Members of the commission
who also are members of the house
will probably offer little oppo-
sition to the resolution.

Washington, Aug. LITTLE re
ply of Germany to the proposition
for general arbitration treaty with
the United States state department
by Count Won Bernstein, the Ger
man ambassador, Is said to be fav-
orable to the principles laid down
by Secretary of State Knox and to
presage the negotiation of the
treaty with Germany similar to
those pending in congress with
Great Britain and France, providing
the United States senate does not
drastically amend those agreements.
Count Won Bernstein returned TO
Washington today from Manchester,
Mass, the summer home of the Ger
man embassy for the purpose of con-
veying his governments answer He
will confer with Secretary Knox to-
morrow. All previous efforts to
negotiate an arbitration treaty with
Germany have failed because of the
necessity to refer the question OF
arbitration to the senate in each
care OF controversy.

CAIRO AUTO CLUB PROTESTS
AGAINST DISTURBING GRADE
OF COUNTY ROAD.
Big Four and Illinois Central Made
Cavities in Crossing to Reach
Sears-Roebuck Co.'S Plant.

The Cairo Auto club, which Is
giving special attention to the con-
dition of roadways in and about the
city, has lodged complaint before
the Board of County Commissioners
because of depression in the coun-
ty road made by the Big Four and
Illinois Central companies, in cross
ing the road to reach the Scars-R Roc
buck plant. In both cases the road
has been depressed at the point of
crossing, not much by the Illinois
Central, but in the case of the Big
Four the depression is said to be
nearly three feet, causing consid-
cradle cavity.
One condition upon which the
railroads will give permission to
cross the road was that the surface
or grade of the road should not be
changed. The Board will notify
the railroad people that they must
change their crossings so as to re-
store the grade as they originally
found it.
