Senate Against Intervention.
A poll of the senate shows virtually
unanimity against armed interven-
ton. Only one senator, Stone of Mis-
souri,, inclined toward that drastic
course. The majority of senators,
however, are leaning toward solu-
ton of the question by raising the
embargo on arms, permitting the con-
ititutionalists to fight it out with
Huerta, while this country enforces a
financial blockade. Virtually all SEN
ators, Republicans and Democrats
alike, are stanchly upholding the
presidents hand. There is no appar-
ent disposition to play politics."

NJ Frers, member of the house Of
deputies, who delivered the speech of
welcome, referred to the visitor as
the defender of the integrity of the
Americas and, after paying him the
tribute of having entirely dispelled
any feeling of suspicion that may
have lurked among the LatinAmeri-
can countries of the unfriendly ad-
vances of the United States, he said:
1--WE will be justified in calling him
the great pacificator."
In his reply Col. Roosevelt defined
the Monroe doctrine. explaining that
it was not an international law, but a
policy of the United States for all
America. He said times had changed
since the adoption of that policy, so
that the Argentine was now a great
modern nation which needed no pro-

FOUR BIG FRElGHTERS CARRY.
ING CREWS OF 20 MEN EACH
ARE OVERDUE.
SHIPPERS LOSS, $4,OOO,OOO
Most Of Disasters Occurred on Wes,
Shore of Lake Huron, Which
Usually Is Safe Haven-Many
Bodies Have Been Found.

Cleveland, Nov. 14.-Never in the
history of navigation on the great
lakes has a storm claimed such a toll
in human life and damage to shipping
as the terrific blizzard which swept
over four of the big fresh water bod
les early this week. Latest reports
place the number of missing sailors
on shipwrecked vessels at $50.
There is a growing fear that four
steel steamers on Lake Huron, carry.
ing crews of 20 men each, have been
lost. The vessels are more than SO
hours overdue and still unreported
A score of bodies already have been
recovered on Lakes Huron and Su.
perior, washed up with the wreckage
of boats.
Probably IS Vessels Lost.
A majority of the vessels reported
lost or missing were owned by Cleve-
land companies or individuals, and ex-
perts here agreed that the total loss
probably will reach $3,200,000 This
amount is based on the latest reports
lCNOlNCu, anu luOluuCS IuC llilSSlllS :
vessels However. it does not include
loss of cargoes, which will easily run
into $1,000,000
The total number of big vessels lost
will reach 25, it was estimated
Lake Huron claimed the biggest toll
of human life. It's west shore, usual
ly its weather shore, harbored many
vessels when the storm broke. The
wind shifted trickily, however, and
the west shore received the full force
of the 70-mile gale, driving before it a
mass of binding sleet and snow.
Huge seas swept over the vessels,
taking with them not only cabins and
upper works, but also human beings.
Preparedness went for naught In
this storm. The staunchest vessels,
representing the best in marine archi.
lecture in the United States, Canada,
England and Scotland, were pounded
to pieces by the gale.
The modern steel steamer II. M.
Hanna could not have been in better
trim She was piled on the beach at
Point Aux Barques and broken in two.
The James Carruthers, the largest
steamer ever turned out of a Canad-
ian shipyard, is now reported lost on
Lake Huron.

A FORGOTTEN ANNIVERSARY
100 Years Ago Capt. Lawrence Sailed
the Chesapeake Out of Boston Harbor

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir. II will be one hundred years ago on
June 1 that Captain James Lawrence
sailed out Of the harbor OF Boston in the
Chesapeake To lower his flag to Captain
Broke OF the Shannon.
II there has been anything said about
observing this anniversary in the papers
! have not seen Il. In my humble opin-
ION the day should be observed in some
fitting way. not forgetting the brave
Young Lieutenant Ludlow, who died soon
after landing at Halifax. and whose name
appears on the monument with his be-
loved captain.
England in those days knighted their
captains when they lost a ship 10 the
Americans. and they were kept pretty
busy at 1t. 1t is altogether fitting and
proper that We observe this FIRST day Of
June. 1913. and I ask IL anything has been
done to DO so. FREDERICK 6. GAGE.

In response 10 this insinuating situation the gen

was engaged to marry the young woman in question.
Follows the point: DO you intend 10 bring suit
against your wife," queried the attorney. Il am

This is indeed good old stuff. Why not abolish
the word gentleman altogether save when needed

tremely delicate sense of honor?

feud to which this gift would set fitting seal.
The Duke Of Cumberland is the rigbtful heir TO
the duchy Of Brunswick but the Emperor has de
barred him from actually succeeding because he
would not renounce his claim upon the kingdom OF
Hanover which was conquered and annexed by
Prussia because of its alliance with Austria in 1866
Brunswick has consequently been without duke
since 1884 and been governed for all these years
by a regent.
