HALLOWEEN QUIET ONE
FOR POLICE OFFICIALS

Whether they had been satisfied
with the mischief they perpetrated
several night before and were afraid
of the 80 or more boy cops, Chief
Brinn announced he had employed as
police officers, or not, is a question,
but at any rate Halloween was very
quietly observed by the youth of the
city Saturday night. No reports of any
stolen or destroyed property were
made to the police and no arrests re-
suited.

APPROVE ALL TREATIES.
Immediate Ratification Of Arhitra alton
Pacts Recommended.

Washington. Jan. 3O.-The senate
foreign relations committee today
voted to recommend immediate ratifi-
cat on OF general arbitration treaties
with Great Britain. Japan and other
nations, twenty-five treaties in all.
These have been pending since last
summer.
The treaties are twenty-four in num-
Der. one each with the following ma
tons. that with France having been
renewed last Year: China, Denmark.
Great Britain. Italy. Japan. Mexico,
Netherlands. Norway. Peru. Portugal.
Salvador. Spain, Sweden, Switzerland.
Austria Hungary. Costa Rica. Haiti.
Paraguay, Argentine Republic, Bolivia.
Ecuador. Uruguay. Chile and Brazil
The treaty with Great Britain had
been held up because some feared its
ratification might force arbitration at
the The Hague Of the Panama canal
tolls controversy. President Wilson's s
attitude on the question Is generally
considered to be in violation Of the
Hay -Pauncefote treaty. Congress may
settle the dispute either by repeating
the free passage clause or suspendlns
i:s operation pending litigation.
The California alien land question
was indirectly involved in the Japanese
treaty, but the administration view Is
that the controversy Is practically at
an end
