glad to do anything I can for
you"
A young man, sandy-haired
and with a sprinklingr of freckles
over a broad face, and giving the
general impression of a game,
clean athlete, came into the office.
It was Gordon Pirie, MILAN
aire son Of one of the founders of
the store. Wood introduced the
reporter to Pirie.
eve have very few accidents
in our store" said Wood, after
the introduction was over. "But
we wish to assure you that when
accidents do occur there is no
policy of keeping the information
secret."
Woods attention was called to
the Hillman accident, and how
the blame for it all was placed on
the elevator operator, although it
was shown that the store had no
sign on the fifth floor informing
shoppers that elevators ran no
higher-for them.
Wood hesitated for a moment,
and then said:
'Well, that's the way. It takes
experience to teach us some
things"
There is an ordinance requir-.
ing ambulance owners to report
all cases of sick or injured per-
sons removed to hospitals to the
police" said the reporter. docs

police on persons taken from here
to hospitals?"

TREATY TO GIVE RIGHT
OF WAY FOR NEW CANAL
Niearasuan Treaty Enlarged So AZ To
Enable United States to Shield Inds-
pendsnee and Stability Of Nicaragua
Establishes Base in Bay Of Fon-
SEGA.
lsneeial Correspondence.l


Washington, July 23.-Ths United
States intends to bend every energy
to maintain absolute control OF the
Panama canal, to guard it's integrity
and prevent interference with it and at
the same time it does not intend to
retreat from the Monroe doctrine. This
is the Interpretation generally placed
here on the surprising announcement.
that Secretary Byran, backed by Pres
ioent Wilson, has urged the senate
foreign relation committee to report In
favor OF ratification of the revised and
broadened Nicaragua treaty which
would give this country a virtual pro-
tectorate over the Nicaraguan republic
and guarantee to the United States the
exclusive right of way for another
canal across the isthmus.
Scope Of Treaty Enlarged.
1t has been well known for some
weeks that the president favored the
arrangement that would give the
United States the right of way for
another canal across the isthmus but
Until now the enlarged scope OF the
treaty proposed with Nicaragua has
not been known. The treaty has been
SO enlarged that ii would enable the
United States to shield the independ-
ence and stability OF Nicaragua by ex-
ercising general control over its debt
and its foreign relations. The right OF
the United States would be established
to intervene 10 protect life and prop
erty and uphold the independence OF
the little Central American republic.
By no means one of the least features
of the treaty would give this country
the right &c q naval base in the Bay
Of Fonseca.
Guarantees Stable Governments.
The larger aspects Of the matter are
of the utmost interest and are bound
to stir attention on the part Of every
great power. Many believe the admin
istration has taken this stand in order
to serve notice to other governments
that this country will brook no inter-
ference from abroad in Mexico or IN
any Of the countries within reach OF
the canal. That 1t will be the policy
to put the whole Central American
region under the strong right arm OF
America i: understood. This does not
mean annexation but rather the guar
anteeing Of stable governments and
announcement Of the system Of per-
ennial revolutions
Good in "DolIar Diplomacy"
By no means one Of the minor
nhases of the administration advocacy
of the enlarged treaty IL that 1t Is
virtual admission that the policy OF the
state department begun in the Roose-
Welt administration. Of exercising pro-
tectorates over such countries as Cuba
and Santa Domingo. Is the right policy.
1t am,ts that down at bottom there IL
much good in the general principles
of the much -berated policy Of dollar
diplomacy" SO long as that policy is
not conducted in a fashion to aid
anecial interests in this country.
