PEACE CONFEREES
STILL In DEADLOCK
Despite Efforts of Powers, Allies and
Turks Are Nowhere Near Settlement.
Ottoman Delegates Bitter.

Balkan and Turkish delegates are as
kopelessly deadIocked at the end OF
the week as they were at the beginning.
with no definite prospect of a settlement
being reached.
The Turkish delegates called on Sir
Edward Grey at the Foreign Office late
to-day and Informed him that they were
willing to extend their stay in London
TO await developments, but they gave
no indication that they eventually will
abandon their claim to Adrianople. II
is probable that they will remain until
the end of the coming week although
Richard Pasha was previously reported
as having stated to-day that they would
depart on Tuesday unless the allies
amended their demands
The Turks are extremely bitter against
the ENJOYS of the allies. One of them
said to-day:
We are rather glad that Europe has
now experienced what sort of swine
herds these Balkan peoples are. We
know them of old
The joint note of the ambassadors OF
the powers has not yet been presented
to the Porte. and II is not known wher
II will be presented. II Is understood
that the note contains no threat and

Tension between ServIa and Austria
Is again acute on account of the arrest
of military spies of Servians crossing the
Austrian frontier. Military transports
belonging to Austria are continually
blocking the roads leading into Servia,
completely demoralizing the railway
schedules. The Servian Chamber of
Commerce has sent a sharp note of pro-
test to the Austrian authorities.

EVANSVILLE COUNCIL
REPEALS ORDINANCE
Town Baiiff No Longer Gets Portion
Of Fines Imposed on Speed
ing" Autoists.
Special to The Washington Herald.

SIer7A 10 The washington HERALD
Hyattsville, Md. Jan. decentralization
OF the ordinance relative to the speed
limit here was the purpose OF a special
meeting of the Mayor and Common COun-
Gil tonight. An ordinance repeating the
section relative to chief bailiffs duties
was adopted. This action reduces the
fee heretofore received by the bailiff.
and will. 1t Is believed, have a tendency
to diminish the enthusiasm Of the Off
GERS, who have recently arrested speed
ing automobiles here.
The new ordinance does not change the
speed limit within the corporate limits.
The allowable speed is ten miles an hour,
and all of the fine, instead Of one-half,
as heretofore. goes TO the town Inter
esting contention recently has passed be-
tween Automobile Commissioner Roe. of
Maryland. and the Mayor and Common
Council over the disposition of fines i'm
posed for violating the speed law on
the Observation-Disclosures highway. The
commissioner claims that. under an opin-
ion of the Attorney General OF Maryland,
these fines should be turned over to
State automobile authorities.
Mayor Harry W. Shepard, acting upon
an opinion OF Corporate Counsel Vincent
A. Sheehy. takes issue with the State
AUTHORITIES. He claims that the town
charter provides the fires and makes It
a penalty of 500 for any justice Of the
peace who fails to turn this money over
to the town authorities; claims that
while this highway has been formally
turned over to the States commissioner.
they yet retain authority TO exercise po-
lice powers over the road, and that the
making OF speed regulations within The
corporate limits is one OF these powers
The authorities here believe that the
commissioner Is under the
impression that recent arrests We're made
under State law, where. as a matter OF
fact. they were made for alleged viola
lions of town ordinances.

business Men Control Future.
THE business future Of this country
does not depend upon the government of
the United States. It depends upon the
business men of the United States. The
government cannot breed a temper in
men. The government cannot generate
thought and purpose. And only the
temper and the thought and the purpose
of business men in America is going
to determine what the future of busi-
ness shall be. There are many things to
do which You can do without the as
sistance and also without the whip OF
law. The thing which is done only I'M
der the whip of law is done imperfectly,
reluctantly, sometimes sullenly and never
successfully. The hope OF America is
the changing attitude Of business men
OF this country toward the things which
they have to handle in the future. II
that temper had not changed the things
could not have happened which have
happened in recent months. For what
We have witnessed within the last two
months is not merely a political change
1t is a change in the attitude and judg-
ment of the American people.
Zone OF the reasons why there were not
merely two parties contending for the
supremacy at the recent election. one
reason why the field of choice was va
ried and multiplied. was that the old
lines are breaking where they are old
est, and that men are no longer to be
catalogued, no longer to be found by
dead reckoning. no longer to be put in
classes. as II their thinking had been
concluded. and they We're no longer cast
ing abroad for the things which they
should think and the things they should
do. America has come upon a new Pc
Rod OF thinking. and she Is going to
think her way out to triumphant So
luton OF her difficulties.
