WORKING HARD IN
INTEREST OF PEACE
.
Sir Edward Grey and Ambassa.
doris Are Busy.

London Jan. 14.-Sir Edward Grey,
the British foreign secretary, and the
ambassadors of the powers are max
ing valiant efforts to bring about a
settlement between Turkey and the
Balkan allies in the direction Of
peace. They have had additional in
terviews with DR.. Danen and Rechad
Pasha, heads of the Bulgarian and
Turkish delegates respectively, advis-
ing moderation on both sides and
warning them that either party, if
through obstinacy it should plunge
Europe into war again, would incur
a heavy weight of disapproval.
The meeting of the ambassadors
was the longest yet held. They dis
cussed the note to be presented to
the pnrte, aiming to meet every pos
sible argument likely to be raised by
the Turks
NJ general impression among the
,en1potentiaries is that the definite
decisiF'n OH war or peace must come
from Constantinople. Whatever con-
cesslons and compromises the Balkan
league MAJ make the allies will never
consent to tNa ranuncia ton of Adri~

Forever Bars Judge Archibald
From Public Life.
LOSES HIS SEAT ON BENCH
Commerce Court Jurist Found Guilty
on Five Of the Thirteen Charges
Against Him.

Washington, Jan. 14-Robert w.
Archibald of Scranton, Pa, for twenty
nine years a Judge upon the Pennsyl-
vania state bench, the federal dis
trict bench and in the United States
commerce court, adjudged guilty by
the United States senate of high
crimes and misdemeanors, was
stripped of his office and forever dis
qualified from holding positions Of
public honor or public trust.
Sentence was imposed by Senator
Bacon of Georgia, the presiding off,
Ger, after the senate, by a vote Of 80
to IS, had upheld a resolution offered
by Senator O'Gorman of New York
authorizing the full penalty provided
by the Constitution.
"The senate therefore do order
and Decree" said Senator Bacon,
"and it is hereby adjudged that the
respondent, Robert w. Archibald, cir
cult judge for the United States for
the Third judicial circuit, and desig-
mated to serve in the commerce
court, be, and he is hereby, removed
from Office, and that he be AKA is
hereby forever disqualified to nold
and enjoy any Office of honor, ztust
or profit under the United States"
Sentence Operative at Once.
The sentence of the senate became
~ nd 1iroofi4nc
given that the president and house
of representatives be notified imme-
diately of the verdict and the punish
ment imposd.
The conviction and judgment came
as the conclusion of the impeachment
trial that has been pending in the
senate since last summer on charges
that Judge Archibald had been guilty
of misconduct and misbehavior as a
Judge and that he had corruptly used
his judicial power to further the pri-
vate interests of himself and his
friends in the acquisition of coal land
properties in Pennsylvania.
Upon five of the thirteen charges
brought against him by the house OF
representa- tjves Judge Archibald was
found guilty. Upon the other eight
the senate voted him not guilty, the
majority il three cases being against
him, but falling of the two-thirds nee
essary for conviction. Any one of the
five verdicts Of guilty was enough to
bring about the punishment imposed
upon him.
