 PEACE DEADLOCK
 TO ARBITRATION
Talk Now of Having Ambassa- dOrs of Powers Disentangle
 the Knotty Problems

London, Dec. 30.-There was grow ing conviction today, among diplo- mats that the only solution of the Balkan-Turkish peace deadlock can of the powers.
 It was learned, today, that there was among the Turkish delegates at least a disposition to lay the matter before the ambassadorial conversa- t1oniSts at the foreign office when yoys do not get closer together be- fore then.
 It has been believed from the out set that informal consultations sug- gested by Sir Edward Grey, foreig gn minister, would lead to a. formal am bassadoriaI conference and this might be called for at once to consider the Balkan tangIe. There was no indica- ton, as far as could be gathered around the hotels where the peace delegates were stopping, that either the Ottomans or the Balkan league envoys would be prepared to recede in any degree when the peace confer ence is resumed in St. James Palace, this afternoon.
 Turkey. it was said, would insist it is said. will make no peace terms that do not include the cessation of Adrianop1e.
 It was thought that some of the Balkan p1enipotentiaries might favor a resumption of hostilities if Turkey persisted in her proposals at the af- ternoon meeting but it was said the great powers would intervene to pre- vent renewed fighting.
 It was evident that if an am bassa- trate the Turkish-Ba1kan differences It Is likely that there will be a dis agreement between the triple alliance and the triple entente.

The rob bers, seven in number, the police all lege, had planned New Years cele- bration that included blowing the strong box of Patrick Pennachia's Italian Bank at Morris avenue and 146th' street, which it was said to- day. usually holds upwards of $300,- GOO in cash and negotiable securities.
 The chief witnesses against the men will be Nettie Briggs, a 20 year old girl who says she came here from Wilkesbarre, and Mrs. Josephine Paulls, alias Sacks, in whose apart ment at 2552 7th avenue, four of the suspects were arrested The Briggs woman, insisting she had no knowl- edge of any of the burglaries charged against the prisoners, has. 1t is under ton.

STRANGE MALADY
 AFFLICTS VOIGHT

The strange maladys afflicting Her man Voight has again seized him af- ter recovery was thought assured by the hospital authorities who recently had him under observation. Shortly before o'clock this morning he was seized with apparent convu1sions in his home at 85 French street, and the emergency staff was called to admin ister to him. Believing the case to be epilepsy Voight was removed to the Bridgeport hospital for treatment. It was later learned that he is the same patient who had puzzled the phy- sicians in charge of St. Vincent's hos pital to which institution he had been taken from the Dewhursts Dairy Com pany on Dec. 23, supposedly suffering from denentia. The records of the case at the latter hospital show no absolute diagnosis as symptoms of many maIadies were shown during his confinement which ended by his appar- ent recovery and discharge on Christ mas day.
 While 'tepilepsy'' is the tentative cause ascribed to his present condition, physicians who have considered the case will not today commit themselves to an absolute diagnosis of Weights af1ment, and he is being kept under close observation to determine the ac- tua1 cause of his recurrent illness

SHERRY CASE WAS
 DROPPED BY OFFICIALS
Evidence Deemed Insufficient By Prosecuting Attorney to War
 rant Prosecution.

Robert M. Sperry, the well known local playwright who was haIed to police headquarters yesterday upon a charge of comnitteeing a breach of the peace preferred by Patro1man Pat rick Sheehy, after an argument over uncleaned sidewalk adjoining the house occupied by Sperry on I4enox avenue, was vindicated this morning when his case was noI1ed before Judge Carl Foster in the City court
 While MT. Sperry was ready to ap- pear before the court, bonds Of $15 having been posted by c. G. ThraI trial of the case never got beyond Prosecuting Attorney Alexander De- Laney and Chief of Police Eugene Birmingham to whom, it is believed, insufficient evidence was presented to warrant prosecution At the request of the prosecuting attorney the matter was no11ed.
 Mr. Sperry to a reporter for The Farmer today expressed much indig- nation over his arrest. He said that no charge of abusive language had been made against him by the patrol man who caused his arrest but that he had been unjust1y accused of creat- ing a disturbance. The matter was not to be dropped said MT. Sperry who intimated that further action towards lvindicating himself would be taken by his attorney, George E. Hill, before whom the facts in the case had been laid.

DR.. Hartman Speaks About
Catarrh of the Lungs

patients struggle against disease. The
patient may have been losing ground
day after day. AZ last the fight seems
hopeless death inevitable. Some one
suggests Pc.ru.na. The patient takes
IL without any hope. The medicine ac-
tually does infuse new life into the cir
culation. They feel its genial influence
as soon as IL is swallowed. This consti-
tutes the turning point in their disease.
The little assistance which Pe-m.na
gives nature at this important point
turns the tide of affairs in favor OF the
patient.
Not that Pe-ru.na cures incurable dis
eases. No. not at all. But Pe.ru-na does
lend little muehneeded assistance at
q time when feather weight ON one
side or the other OF the balances turns
the scales in favor of or against the
patient Scores and scores OF times PEE
ru.na has come in at these critical mo-
ments and saved patients from immi-
nent death. At least il seems so.

Pe-ru-na is diflusive stimulant. IL

warm glow of health to pervade the

mentary canal, kidneys, bladder, lungs,
all the mucous membranes are appar-
emily reviviiied, rejuvenated, rc-endowed

Pe-ru-na will do. And this often saves
life. There can be no doubt of 1t.
Whether the case be one of eatarrh of
