n y interesting token of the
~ spirit of our times is the
recent international con-
ference held at Berne, Switzer-
land, to consider what should be
done in order to preserve the
wild races Of the globe from the
murderous propensities @of the
only self-styled civilized animal
which at present dwells upon its
surface.
One branding sentence uttered
by Paul Sarasin at that confer
ence smarts and stings in the
readers conscience.
1T is only too true" said Mr..
Sarasin, that the white man is
the great DESTROYER OF crea
ton, He Is the lill-joy in the
paradise Of the earth, and wher-
ever he goes his path is marked
by epidemics. poison, devasta-
tion, blood and tears."
The civilized white man not
only kills lower animals for the
pleasure Of seeing them fall and
die, but, directly or indirectly,
swiftly or slowly, he kills all rep
resentatives of his own kind
whose ways of life are less arti-
fetal than his own. He sacri-
fees every creature to his two
great gods-machinery and lux
ury./
Fortunately there is leaven OF
righteousness in his composition,
the working of which is shown by
the Berne conference.

JOKER
In the Clayton Antitrust Bill
is Traced to the Vice
President.
(BY Charles Brooks Smith.

u
WASHINGTON, d. CT. Sept. q
AS predicted in previous letter the
Chiffon amendment to the Clayton
ANTITRUST, bill, which was adopted
without debate by the Senate last
week, is likely to cause considerable
trouble with both legislative bodies
of Congress, and promises to prove
IA troublesome> question which may
throw another prohibition fight IN
both Houses for settlement. 1t IS SAID
by politicians here that authorship of
the amendment has been traced TO
the vice president. who requested
Senator Chiffon to present 1t to the
Senate. The authorship of the Ques-
toned amendment is regarded IN
some quarters as a joke that went
wrong. Mr.. Marshall has reputa-
ton for thinking up droll amend
ments, which he asks members TO
present. 1t is thought possible that
this was submitted in the same spirit
and was not appreciated as a Joke
The section in question, it was point
ed out. may be invoked to prevent
the shipment of wines or liquors from
a wet state into dry state, or dry
territory within state, and is re-
garded as substantially strengthening
to the Webb-Kenyon liquor law.
Whether the conferees accept or.
reject the amendment, the probab1l-
ity is that the disappointed element In
both houses will insist on roll cali
decision, thereby bringing up. at
most convenient time, an issue which
members of both the Senate and the
House are not anxious to consider
just at this time.

RAILROAD SHIFTS ATTITUDE.
Boston aud Maine Joins Plaintiff In
Express Company suit.

CONCORD. n. H., June 22--The suit OF
Mrs. Clementine V. Wentworth OF this
city, brought last summer against the
American Express Company and the Bos-
ton and Maine Railroad. resulted to-day in
legal action By the railroad directors up
holding Mrs. Nentworth's allegations
against the express company.
As dissatisfied stockhOlder Mrs
Wentworth felt obliged to commence suit
against both the directors OF the railroad
and the express company and to-dsy's
development brings the railroad into line
with the stockholders In the fight against
the express contract which was put
across when Lewis Cass Ledyard. vice.
president of the American Express Com
pany. was also director OF the Boston

1t was alleged by Mrs Wentworth that
the contract constitutes inadequate com
peusation To the railroad To the extent OF
100000 a year and that this annual loss
should be Immediately terminated. The
contract is In force for twenty years and
provides that the railroad after furnish
ing transportation and office facilities for
the express company shall receive SO per

corporation. The Boston and Maine ad-

BRYAN OFFERS PROOFS
OF APOLOGY LEGACY
Secretary Says "Regret" in Co.
lOmbia Treaty Came From
Taft's Convention.

WASHINGTON. June 22.-Secretary OF
State Bryan presented to-day his proofs
for his statement that the expression
OF regret" In the United States Colombia
treaty was a legacy from the Taft ad-
ministration. Mr. Bryan seemed to re-
gard II as conclusive.
He brought forth the Dubois memo
randum made during the TAFT admins
tration. which was the basis upon which
the Senator was authorized to negotiate
a treaty. This language was used:
THE Government and the people OF
the United States honestly regret any
thing should have ever occurred to mar
In any way. the long and sincere friend
ship that existed for nearly a century be-
tween Colombia and the United States
and the latter country has for years
earnestly desired TO remove the III feeling
aroused in Colombia by the separation OF
Panama"
Mr.. Bryan pointed out that his treaty
reads THE United States expresses
In its own name and In the name
Of the people OF the United States sin
cere regret that anything should have
occurred to interrupt or mar the rela-
tons" &c
1T will be seen from comparison
OF the two paragraphs that they are
Identical In meaning and almost Identical
in language" said the Secretary's state
ment. THE phrase interrupt or mar in
the latter is simply mar in the Dubois
memorandum"
