cap, being trimmed with beautiful
lace, made by friend and hung in

ing minister, was Rev. Arthur B. Ken
nedy, pastor of the Tabernacle Bap-
tist church at Columbia, S. C. He

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused bv an
inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed. deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
flammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition.
nearing Will be destroyed forever; 9
cases out of ten are caused by ca.
tarrh, which is nothing but an infam-
ed condition of the mucous surfaces.

LATIN AMERICA TURNS
TO NORTH FOR TRADE
Commerce Crippled by War, Southern
Countries Seek Its Restoration
BY Agreement With the
Western Hemisphere.
THE UNITED STATES is ASKED
TO COOPERATE WITH THEM
The Impetus That Will Make Plans
Effective Rests With President
of the United States.

Washington, Nov. 26.-The United
States government has been asked by
the principal South American nations
to cooperate with them in negotiations
with European belligerents to bring
about the exclusion of all belligerent
warships from the waters of the
American countries with each other.
Argentina, Chile, Peru and Uruguay
nave laid their suggestion before the
Washington government. Virtually all
the Central and South American coun-
tries have been circularized by some
OF the principal nations, resulting in
series of diplomatic conferences in
Washington and the capitals of South
America which are now in progress.
While the proposals are different in
character and scope they all seek the
same end-the restoration of the
trade between North and South Amer
lea, paralyzed by the European war.
The movement has also for it's object
removal of serious friction between
countries of this hemisphere and Eu-
ropean belligerents on questions of
neutrality. The impetus that will
make any plans effective, it is recog-
nized, rests with President Wilson.
The various plans thus far formally
communicated to the United States
are as follows:
The Main Ideas.
l.. The establishment of neutral
zones on the Atlantic and Pacific
coasts of North and South America,
within which the belligerents shall be
asked to agree not to engage in hos
tilities.
2. The convocation of a general
conference of diplomatic representa-
tives and commercial delegates of all
American countries with power to
agree on steps which can be taken to
protect and restore Pan American
trade.
3. The appointment by the Pan
American union of committee to
recommend steps that would remove
dangers to Pan-American trade.
d. Prohibition by all nations of the
two Americas of the privileges hith-
erto exercised by the belligerents of
coaling in neutral ports, or the issu-
ance of only sufficient quantity of
coal to enable a belligerent vessel to
reach the nearest port of another
country.
Already some of the powers of Eu-
rope have been felt on the proposi.
tions and it is understood Great Bri-
tain is ready to deny her warships en-.
try into Central and South American
ports to coal if the United States an
proves the proposal and other bellg-
erentS agree.

BIG BRITISH SHIP
BLOWN TO PIECES
Bulwark, Second Line Battleship, De-
stroyed BY Her Own Magazine.
SEVEN HUNDRED MEN PERISH
Terrific Explosion Shakes Houses
Seven Miles Away.

London, Nov. 26.-It was officially
announced here that the British bat
tleship Bulwark had been blown up
off Sheerness. Only IL men out of the
700 or 500 on board the Bulwark were
saved.
According to the admiralty, the ex-
plosion, which resulted in the destruc-
tion of the Bulwark is believed to
have originated in her own magazine.
The announcement of the disaster
to the Bulwark was made by Winston
Spencer Churchill, first lord of the
admiralty, shortly before 4 o'clock
this afternoon.
The loss of the Bulwark, according
to a Central News dispatch received
this afternoon from Chatham, was
due to an accidental explosion while
ammunition was being loaded on the
warship.
The force of the explosion aboard
the boat was so great that houses in
Sheerness and even in Southend. sew
en- miles away and on the other side
OF the Midway, were violently shak-
en-. The people fled into the streets
in alarm. When the great shiu blew
up dense clouds of smoke and flame
shot into the air. The vessel disap-
peared beneath the waves in three
minutes. So terribly was the Bull
wark rent that it was impossible to
render her any assistance. Imme-
diately after the explosion the vessel
was blotted out by smoke and as the
veil slowly lifted a handful of men
were seen struggling in the water.
Small craft rushed to their aid and
picked them up. Some of the crew
were badly mutilated. A touch of
the dramatic was added to the catas-
trophe by the fact that the band of
the Bulwark was playing when the
explosion came
Deny Submarine Story.
The disaster occurred while the
Bulwark was lying at anchor off the
naval port of Sheerness near the
mouth of the Thames but the officers
of the port scout the public impress
sion that the vessel was the victim of
German submarine. This seems to
be supported by the absence of an up
heaval in the water as the first lord
of the admiralty explained.
The explosion which destroyed the
Bulwark occurred at 1855 a. m. A
vice admiral and rear admiral who
were at Sheerness reported that they
were convinced the disaster was
caused by a magazine explosion.
There was no upheaval of the water.
When the smoke had cleared away

BIG VERDICT GIVEN.
Transfer of s4i5,ooo in Notes Ordered in
Bankruptcy Case.

Binghamton, n. Y, Feb. 27.--The big
gest verdict ever received on the supreme
court of the southern tier was rendered
here yesterday afternoon when an award
was made giving notes worth S4l5,00D
now in the possession of the Binghamton
Trust Co., bankrupt and under liquida-
tion by the state banking department,
to the bankrupt estate of Knapp Broth
ers, Deposit and Callicoon, n. Y, who
claimed their ownership. The case arose
out of the failure of several Knapp
banks and business houses in this sec
tion in 1909 Justice Sewell charged the
jury that the knowledge of G. j. Knapp,
then president OF the trust company,
that his own banking house of Knapp
Brothers was insolvent, was the knowl-
edge of the Binghamton Trust Co. itself.
A motion for new trial has been de-
MED, and stay granted pending pos
sible appeal for new trial to the higher
courts by the state.
G. J. Knapp has been acquitted from
criminal prosecution following this fail
ure in several courts and his manage
ment was an issue in the case. Arthur
T. Palmer of New York was counsel for
the state superintendent of banks, and
ex-State Senator Harvey d. HinInan Of
this city was counsel for Knapp Broth
ers' estate.

WOULD BE ACT OF WAR.
To Send Armed Forces Into Mexico
Without Consent.

Washington, D. c., Feb. 27.-Presideni
Wilson took the position yesterday that
for the United States to send marines
or armed forces of any kind into Mex
leo, without the consent of the govern
ing authorities there, would be an act OF
war. He declared emphatically that per-
mission never had been sought either OF
General Huerta or General Carranza, and
indicated clearly no request of that char
aeter would be made in the near future
The president announced, too, that no
change in the policy of the American
government toward Mexico had been de-
eided upon.
The president had been asked partie-
luarly about reports that American
troops might be sent across the border
to recover the body of William S. Ben
ton, the British subject recently execut-
ed at Juarez, and concerning published
dispatches that the United States con-
templated sending marines to Mexico
City to guard the American embassy.
One press despatch, saying General
Huerta himself had stated yesterday
that he had refused permission to the
United States to send 1000 marines to
Mexico City, was shown to President
Wilson, who said it was absolutely
untrue that such a request had been
made. He added that neither Charge
