WORLDS FAIR CLOSES,
Exposition at San Francisco Was q
Success in Every Way.

San FTancisco.-The Panama Paci-
fic International exposition closed Sat
urday night December 4.
In financial way 1t is expected the
exposition will show profit of some
thing like $4,000. .O00-perhaps more.
All Indebtedness was paid before the
exposition was two-thirds over. The
expense of preparing the site and the
buildings for the opening date was
said to be approximately $4,000 900.
There was no federal appropriation for
the undertaking, although the vari-
GUS departments Of the United States
government made displays for which
$500,000 had been allowed for mainte-
nance.
The exposition attendance was be-
yond all hope of the management, es-
pecially after the outbreak of the war,
when for time there was talk OF
postponement Of the opening date. On
daily average the attendance has
been more than $1,000. Within twelve
days after February 20, 100000 per-
sons passed through the gates. The
1900, 600 mark was, reached Novem-
Der 10

Another Shift
of Opinion

The Presidents inviting of Sen
ator Gallinger and Of Represent.
ative Mann to discuss lcgisla tion
is evidence Of another shift oi
opinion on his part. In this
Indianapolis speech, last winter,
Mr.. Wilson spoke oi those whc
were opposing the Wiison-Mc-
Adoo scheme for the purchase ot
ships and said that they wssc
blind, misguided or ignorant.
Senator Gallinger and MIR. Mann
were among the opponents OF the
ship-purchase bill. Under Senat
rGallinger's leadership the meas
ure WAS beaten after the Admin
istation had jammed it through
the House. Neither Senator Gal
linger nor Mr.. Mann has changed
his position in the meantime. Yet
the President seeks to consult
with these blind, misguided and
ignorant men!
Mr.. Mann says that the Presi-
dent is III need not only of Repub-
lIcan votes but of Republican
brains to help him out of his
present position. This is true but
the wonder is that. after having
used such language regarding the
Republicans, the President should
now be seeking their assistance.

CREW Of CHINESE
CRUISER MUT|NY
OPEN FIRE UPON TWO OTHER
WARSHiPs AND ARSENAL
AT SHANGHAI.
Land Troops join In Attack, But Loyal
Troops Succeed In Repulsine At
tack and Cruiser 10 Fin
ally Recaptured.

Shanghaf-The crew OF the Chinese
cruiser ChaolHo mutinied Saturday
night and opened fire on two other
warships and the arsenal The fire
was returned, the engagement lasting
for one hour.
The cruiser was finally recaptured
from the mutinous crew, while q land
movement against the arsenal was re-
pulsed.
Conflicting accounts Of the nature
OF the outbreak are current, and ow-
ing to strict measures taken by the
authorities 1t has been impossible thus
far to obtain official information. 1t
appears, however, that at O'Clock
Sunday afternoon twenty men set
forth from the foreign settlement In q
launch and went alongside the Chao-
Ho, which is lying opposite the Kiang.
Nan arsenal.
On the arrival of the launch the
crew by the ChaoHo mutinied, appar-
emily by prearangement. At about 6
O'Clock the mutineers opened fire on
the arsenal, the cruiser Hai-Chi and
the gunbost TungChing.
Ine hai-Chi and Tung Ching replied
and there was lively cannonading OF
light and heavy guns for an hour. At
least half dozen three-pound shots
fell In the foreign concessions. The
city and countryside were thrown into
panic.

FORD PEACE PARTY
SAILS FOR NORWAY
CHEERING CROWDS BID FORD
AND COMPANIONS CODSPEED
ON MISSION OF PEACE.
Message Received From King Of Nor.
way Stating That the Party
Would be Courtesousiy Re-
ceived In Norway.

New YOrk.-Henry Ford and more
than ntnety-eight peace advocates
sailed from here at 3:15 D. m. Satur-
day on the steamer Oscar II for Chris
tiania. Norway. The party was ac-
companied by ffty-seven newspaper
correspondents and photographers,
and more than twenty general assist.
ants, secretaries and stenographers.
William Jennings Bryan and Thorn
as A. Edison arrived at the dock an
hour before the steamer sailed to bid
farewell to Mr. Ford. Mr. Bryan spen,
half an hour with Ford.
Mr. Bryan spent some time on the
ship bidding 'Godspeed" as he termed
It, to the party
There Is some chance for the mis-
sion to succeed" said Mr.. Bryan, that
sion to succeed" said Mr. Bryan. That
wish them every good fortune"
Just before the gangplank was
pulled up cable messenger rushed
on the ship and it was reported that
Ford had received a message from
King Haako1 of Norway stating the
Ford party would be courteously re-
ceived in Norway.
Before sailing Mr.. Ford issued
what he called farewell statement.
Il am sailing with the firm belief"
he said, that great good will come
of this mission. 1t will keep alive the
thought that peace is possible as well
as desirable and SO long as that is
done, hope of peace exists.
Il know little OF the details OF the
working plan OF the peace conference,
but do know that every effort will
be made for an honorable and early
peace. II this conference succeeds
only in bringing about a beginning OF
negotiations for peace it will have &C.
complished good work.
My heart is in this work for peace
and 1t is for this reason that l have
stood behind the snip and helped the
people to reach a common meeting
place to discuss the possibilities Of
peace with the representatives of 9TH
er neutral countries.
I'VE are leaving on time, and leav-
ing with the feeling that those parts
of the world now at peace and at war
have heard of the plan and are in sym
pathy with the move, and that the best
wishes OF the great majority go with
us''

DIPLOMACY FOUND SLOW.


Negotiations Between Allies and
Greece are Dragging.
London.-1The negotiations between
Greece and the allied powers still drag
on at Athens, new bitches seemingly
arising as the old ones are smo.thed
out. One day 1t is reported settle
ment has been reached, only to be fol.
lowed the next by denial or accounts
of fresh difficulties confronting the
dipmats.
The people of the allied countries,
particularly those of France and Italy,
are becoming impatient over the con-
tinual delays and the press is demand
ing that stern action be taken to dem
onstrate the King Constantine and
his ministers the determination of the
allies to obtain the assurances de-
manded. New proposals are said to
have been made by France and Great
Britain in the hope OF reaching an
agreement.
The attitude Of Roumania also re-
mains undecided. Since the dispatch
announcing the closing OF Roumanian
ports to foreign trade was received,
silence has descended upon Bucharest,
and Europe is awaiting anxiously the
next move which will give a meaning
to- this order. The general belief here
IS that the Roumanian government is
waiting for the concentration of suf-
fcient Russian force in Bessarabia
and large enough AngloIFrench army
in southern Serbia to make victory
certain before joining the allies.

Why Not Be
Frank?

"A tat treasury is no sign ol
sound craftsmanship; II so. the
present National Administration
is "A fiat failure" This is from the
Houston POST. Why qualify
the assertion? Just leave OFF the
"it so" and state the bald truth
that "the present National Adj
ministration is a fiat failure.
Most people are inclined to
regard a tres sury surplus AS evil
dence OF good administration.
Most people are inclined TO think
that an Administration that can
pay as it goes. that does not have
to resort to petty direct and vex
atious taxation, is a success.
Most people in this country have
become accustomed to that kind
OF an A administration throughout
the long periods of Republican
control OF the government. Most
people have come to understand
that"a tat treasury never occurs
under a Democratic Adniinistrat-
ion. Most people associate a lean
treasury with Democratic polio
les. So why not be frank about it?

BRYAN URGES MEDIATION.
Asks Congress to Assure President Of
Readiness to Aid in Peace Move.

Washington.-In a statement issued
here Sunday night, former Secretary
OF State Bryan suggests that congress
assure the president of its readiness
to support him in any effort which he
may see fit to make to hasten the res
toration OF peace in Europe.
An offer of mediation" he says, 'is
not only amply justified on the ground
Of humanity, but it is demanded
There is abundant reason to believe
that the president either alone or in
conjunction with the executives of the
other neutral nations, can secure from
the nations at war a statement of the
terms upon which peace is possible
and such a statement would be the
beginning of an exchange OF views
which would lead to a treaty"

Yes, they are wearing them. Even
the conservative, rather-shy-about-
new-styles girls are wearing panta-
letted petticoats. You'll not see
them often on the street, but at aft

mon, and before many winter moons
have passed they will be common
enough with street gowns.

The coat is made hip-length and
a wide belt improves upon the sug-

always gives. The skirt with its ex-
aggerated flare is shocked in front
to depth of eight inches, and there
is a pretty bit of shocking at either
side to form pouch-like pockets.
The turnover collar and the wide
cuffs are trimmed with ermine. Not
