to Lend Support to
Mediation.

Bishop Greer nc chairman OF the
Church Peace Union and head OF tho
diocese OF New York. yesterday sent out
TO all Episcopal clergy in New York n
letter and a prayer on the Mexican situa-
ton. In the letter Bishop Greer says;
The cloud of war which has been
lowering over the country for some time
past, although not altogether dissipated,
is not so threatening as II was. The sit
uation is more hopeful and the outlook
a little brighter because Of the friendly
negotiations of the South American e
publics. There IS, however, some uncer-
tainty still as to the ultimate outcome Of
these NEGOTIATIONS. and I am writing TO
ask that you and your congregation unite
in prayer to God that they may rtsult
successfully in the avoidance of war and
the establishment Of peace"

row. upon the recommendation OF the
Church Peace Union. in which are Protes-
tant Roman Catholic and jewish re-
lieious bodies. A statement from the
union expresses qualification over the
present outlook and praises President
Wilson. Newspapers are commended for
their moderation. and appreciation is
shown for cooperation OF the pulpits OF
all bodies. Last year about twenty-five
thousand sermons were preached on the
subject of peace but II Is believed that
many times more will be delivered to-
morrow.

BRANOEIS FINISHES
ARGUMENT ON RATES
SAYS Solution of Entire Prob
lem Lies Largely in Scien-
tifc MANAGEMENT.

Washington, May Louis D. Brandeis,
special counsel Tor the Interstate Com
merce Commission in the per cent ad-
vance rate case. concluded his argument
to-day in celebrating his conclusions that
the net and operating revenues of East
ern railroad are not adequate 70 afford
the roads assured prosperity or for
the welfare OF tho community" In an
nouncing his conclusions. after *
haustive examination of the testimony
Mr.. Brandeis summarized the situation
az follows:
ION the whole. the net income and net
operating revenues of the railroads IN
Official classification territory are smaller
than is consistent with their assured
prosperity and the welfare OF the COM
munity and this Is notably true Of tho
Central Freight Association and other
Eastern lines In view of this fact It is
desirable that steps should be taken as
promptly as reasonably may be 20 In
crease this net revenue.
THAT the method proposed by the car
riers for increasing this net revenue IS
essentially unsound: that II IS except as
10 a small part OF the tariffs which have
been submitted, contrary 10 law. and
would be. il approved. invalid and exceed
ing the powers vested by the Congress IN
this commission; and. az to the small part
to which IL would be legal TO approve
them. II would be unwise 10 the carriers
and 20 the community 20 approve them.
That there IS nothing in the condi-
- which clOffld
vent the adoption OF those methods OF
increasing their revenues which are con-
formabe and in accordance with their
interests and those OF the community;
and that there exists and have been indi-
Gated IN this record a definite means of
increasing the revenues without resort TO
these unsound, largely Illegal and hori-
zontai increases in rates"
In adjournng the sitting Chairman
Harlan OF the Interstate Commerce Com
mission announced. with what was re-
garded as great significance: "This CON
cludes this phase OF the case.
It has been pointed out that the funda-
mental question OF the inquiry was
whether the present revenues OF the rail-
roads were adequate 70 their needs Since
a NEGATIVE answer 70 that question would
end the case, the chairman's announce
ment was accepted by those present as
Indicating there would be other phases OF
the case In the future and that the COM
mission proposed 10 adopt Mr. Brandeis's
view that the present revenues OF the
roads we're not adequate. The next
phase OF the proceeding would be the
second question propounded by the com
mission. "IIow are the additional revenues
TO be obtained"

SENATE DEBATING
REPEAL OF TOLLS
Fight VIII Be Acute To-day
May Supersede All Other
Questions.
From ITO Tribuns Bureau. ]

Washington. May The battle lines
for the last fight on the tolls controversy
will be drawn in the Senate tomorrow,
when Senator O'Gorman will move 10
make the repeal bill unfinished business,
which Will give II the right OF way over
all other legislation.
Debate on the question was begun to-
day by Senator Norris. who opposed the
exemption OF tolls on economic grounds.
as subsidy. and proposed that the ques-
ton over the Interpretation Of the Hay
Pauncefote treaty be submitted TO arbi-
tration. Such a course. he said, would
be an honorable one for the United States
and would gain for the country a high
place among the nations of the world for
promoting the cause Of arbitration.
THE most of the discussion" said SEN
ator Norris, "has been On the question of
the exemption from tolls OF the American
coastwise vessels. II We are to exempt
any American ships / would much prefer
70 exempt American ships engaged in for
eign trade.
I'VE have provided by law that no for
eign ship had the right OF carrying freight
or passengers from one American port 10
another. The law provides that only
American vessels can engage in this bust
ness and there can be no competition
from foreign vessels. American ships en-
gagged in foreign trade must compete with
ships Of the entire world.

therefrom?"
Mr.. Norris said the proposed tolls ex-
emption was a subsidy Gust as direct and
Just as clear as Though we paid II to them
by direct appropriation" Concerning the
international question involved in the con-
troversy, he added: II desire only to
show that 1t is a question that can be
properly and should be honorably sub
mitted for settlement 10 an international
arbitration tribunal.
There can be no denying the fact that
the greatest students Of the world who
have given tho subject full and complete
investigation and thought are divided as
TO whether this treaty permits us to dis
eliminate In favor OF American shipping
There can be no doubt, and, so far as
know, no one disputes the fact that these
Disbursements are honest and sincere.
The question in dispute is the construc-
ton of what, under ordinary circum-
stances. would be simple language. This
Is the meaning to be placed on the in
ternational statute"

Kerr Loses His Job.

The new arrangement means that
Robert J. Kerr. a lawyer Of Chicago.
who was appointed TO be Governor in
Vera Cruz by Rear Admiral Fletcher,
will lose his Office. His place will be
taken by an army officer, and so will
other civil appointees be replaced by
military men.

Garrison on the Change.
Secretary Garrison said to-day that
the establishment Of a strictly military
government was only in accord with
