negotiated the treaty. was that the
equality mentioned in the convention
was the broad equality which had
marked American diplomacy.
Taking up the specific question of
exemption of American coastwise YES
sells, the Senator said the law of 1912
granting this exemption violated the
equality guaranteed by the treaty.
This was true, he argued, because no
real coastwise trade Of the United
States could pass through this canal,
/ 900 miles away; and consequently
what the law did was to exempt class
of American oversee trade without
exempting the like oversee trade OF
other countries.
The senator declared he was voting
for repeal now because in the judg.
ment to senators best able to judge
the senate would not vote to arbitrate
the dispute.
Right or wrong" he said. "if We
! decide this in our favor, and refuse tc
arbitrate, we are descredited and dis
honored We have repudiated our own
principles. Now let any senator who
votes against repeal take the responsi
bility of leading his country into thai
position. If every constituent of mine
was looking forward to lower freigh
rates, would not so lead my country
Had |, in my own soul, all the nationa
hatred taught in my youth, I worlt
not do it,"
Senator Root added that the United
States should not wait for all the ma
lions of the world to protest agains
the exemption, because the United
States must be the keeper of its owl
conscience and act on it's own judg
ment without waiting for protests. I
he were right, as to the Interpretation
of the treaty, he declared, he woult
not favor exemption even if Great Brit
ain gave its consent. because the ques
ton was broader than the rights o
Great Britain.
In conclusion Mr.. Root said h
would venture to say American diplom
acy had enabled and sweetened inter
national intercourse. He called on hi
fellow senators to meet their duty t
their country in the same big AM

lated a great quantity of stock and
succeeded in getting away with two
horses without being detected by the
guards. Having nothing with which
to feed them after he got them home,
he grazed one while he plowed with
the other, and thus made for his pa
rents small crop of corn and melons.
After long struggle Col. Horne got
together a capital of 5000. With this
he entered business and eventually
became one of the wealthiest farmers,
manufacturers and merchants in North
Carolina. In 1908 he was a Democrat
ic candidate for governor, but was de-
feated.
The memorial which has been given
to the state through Col. Horne's mu
nificence was designed by Augustus
Lukeman, the New York sculptor. The
memorial group depicts a grand
mother of the Confederacy," who sits
reading to a boy the story of the
South's belief in its idea and it's gal
lantry for the cause, while the boy
listens, clasping a sheathed sword
The faces were selected by the sculp
tor as types. The gown of the grand
mother was modelled from a veritablt
ante-bellum example.

Pauline Powe
Tells DUN Story
of Adventure
1T DIDN'T END LIKE SHE THOUGHT
1T WOULD, AND SHE ISN'T CO.
ING TO TRY 1T AGAIN.

| Now that the two children are safe
at home, there is a decided difference
in their dispositions. Sara cannot
talk. Whenever she is asked any
question about the escapade, she
breaks down in tears, and her parents
are not insisting that she tell any
thing
| Pauline, ON the other hand, wants
to tell about it. She didn't want the
newspaper to print it, she said, but
she wants her mother and father to
know all about it. She told the story
somewhat disconnectedly, but when
she got through, this is what she had
told:
Il read a book by man named
Alger. The name of the book was
Tommy something. l don't remember
the name exactly. But it told about a
little girl about my size who dressed
up like a boy and went out and saw
a lot of things.
Il know | ought not to have read
the book, because mother does not
allow me to read any books except the
ones she picks out for me at the IL
brary, but one of the girls at school
said this was such good book and |
read 1t. But | am not going to read
any more books unless mother says
can.
81 told Sara about the book and
about what a good time Tommy had
going around like boy, and how she
fooled everybody she met and made
them think she was a boy, and Sara
and l thought it would be a lot of
fun for us to dress up like boys and
go around that way.
AT first we were afraid, but the
more we thought about it the more
we wanted to go and finally we had
everything fixed up and went.
81 knew where brother William kept
his clothes and l knew they would
just about fit me and Sara and it
wasn't much trouble to get them. We
were afraid we would get caught 60
ing through town, so we got pillow
from home and stuffed the clothes in
the pillow case and we knew that If my
mamma or Sara's mamma saw us they
would think we were carrying the pill
low. Then we took the things out of
the pillow case and put them in the
satchel.
1--WE didn't think much about where
we were going but the railroad was
close to Sara's house and we knew II
we followed the railroad we would
get to some new place. So we fol-
lived the railroad.
I'VE had been walking a long time
and it had got dark and we met some
negro men and asked them where the
railroad led. The negro men looked
like they didn't know what we were
doing, but by this time we had
changed our clothes and cut each 9TH
er's hair as short as we could and the
negro men just looked at us minute
and told us the railroad led to Rich

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
NEW HAVEN HEAVY.
Other Railroads SIump-Susar at Low
 est Point Since 1907.

New York, March 1.-The strong tone of the preceding session was lacking in the stock market today and fluctuations were irregular. Attempts at the outset to extend uile Else Mele checked by large selling Of American Sugar and the eastern railroad shares. Sugar fell to the lowest point since 1907. Reading. New Haven and New York Central developed heavlnesS. The whole list softened under the influence of this selling.
 Pressure diminished in the latter half of the day and among the indus trials there were numerous points or strength. Railroad shares. however, exhibited further weakness and the movement as a whole was an uneven one. Rock Island common at 4 1-4, the preferred at 1-4 and the collat- erals at 40 touched new low records Western Pacific lives, one of the weak est of the Gould securities, dropped four points to low record at 9S:
 The improvement among the lnduS- trials was helped on by good reports from the iron and steel trade. Low priced copper shares were bought on indications of an increased demand Tor the metal, following publication of the strong monthly statement Of the pro ducers' association. Bethlehem Steefs annual report showed an increase ot $3, ,36S, ,00O in gross profits
 Sloss Shef1ield's yearly statement gave a gain in net of S145,00O. The weekly reviews of trade authorities, however, said that current business in finished steel was slow. the amount of bookings in the first half of the month having fallen considerably below eX- pectations.
 American Sugars recent decline was explained by the sharp decrease in earnings shown in the annual report. The gross profits for 1913 were $3,S03,- 600 under the preceding year. Gossip of 8 possible cut in New York Gen. traFs dividend rate at this time was ended by the declaration of the regu- lar dividend in which the stock ral- lied sharply after an early slump.
 Selling for foreign account was re- stunned here. Offerings were compara- lively light and only about 10000 shares were disposed of on cabled or lers.
 Bonds were irregular. Strength in important issues was offset by weak ness of speculative bonds. Total sales, par value, $2,200,000.

ST. LOUIS HAS FOUR PITCHERS
Brown, Groom, WiIiett and crandaII
 are the Quartette.

St. Louis has four pitchers who will do well in the Federal league, even if they don't measure up in the cham pionship set. Mordecai Brown can still stop such opposition as the Fed batters will afford; Groom is a good man. not great one; Willett will be strong in this league, though he was wavering in the majors; Crandall may do, although he's a five-inning man at best on his New York showing.
 Against minor league batting, which will compose the bulk of the opposi- ton at the start of the season, such pitchers should loom up strong.
 With the Cards and Browns jockey ing around last place and the local Feds running one. two three, there Is reason to believe the outlaws will have a big edge with the fans-for a season, at least. That's why the wagering is strong for one. two club here.

BRADLEY BROOKLYN FEDS MANAGER
Announcement Made by Treasurer Walter Ward-Team Leaves Today For Columbia s. C.-Murphy Has Great Faith in the Federals and He Will Be Bradley's Right Hand Man.

Billy Bradley, the veteran third baseman, who pastimed at the difficult bag for the Toronto team of the Inter national league last season, has been Federal league club. The announce ment that the veteran would lead the team was made public by Walter $. Ward, treasurer of the club.
 When It was learned on Monday night that Dan Murphy had decided to join forces with the outlaw organization many believed that Danny was the player the Wards were after to guide their team in it's fight on organized 1 baseball. Murphy explained the Ath-
 Ietics for many years under Connie
 Mack, and was one of the wizards s
 able assistants. But the Wards settled
 the question by announcing that Brad ley is the man.
 Bradley is an adept pupil of the na-
 tional game and should make @ good leader for the Brooklyn team. During his days in the big league he ranked with the best of the third basemen and he was called on many occasions the equal of Jimmy Collins. Bradley will have full charge of the team and has ordered the players to report to the training camp on Friday morn ing. Bill expects all of his players to be camped at Columbia, S. C., on Sat urday ready for the first workout.
 Murphy will pastime in center field for the Feds and act as 8 lieutenant to Bradley. With Murphy in center the Brooklyn Reds will have three former big leaguers, the two other players be- ing Arthur Hoffman, formerly of the Cubs. and Al Shaw of the Giants and St. Louis clubs.
 Danny is off today to join the team on their way south. He thinks the league is a conner and that they have all kinds of money at their disposal. The Brooklyn FederalS are backed by the great buttercrust break kings, the Ward brothers. Danny says that, Bradley will be captain also and he will serve as his righthand man.
