General Settlement


Since this case embraces the princi-
pies for which President Wilson con-
tended in his notes following the tor
pedoing Of the Lusitania and the Fall
aba, the concessions made by Ger
many to the American viewpoint were
generally regarded tonight as paving
the way for amicable settlement of
all the cases which have threatened
severance of diplomatic relations be-
tween the two countries.
Change in Relations
1t was not until the German am
bassador submitted his letter at near
ly l o'clock today that the change. in
the relations between Germany and
the United States became definite In
til that hour the suggestions Count
Won Bernstorff had made were con-
sidered unsatisfactory. In New York
last Saturday the ambassador had
submitted a draft of letter on the
Arabic case, but since it did not in
clude admission of liability and agree
ment to pay indemnity, its terms were
not accepta BILE to either President Will
son or Secretary Lansing. Today he
came to Washington at the request of
Mr.. Lansing. In few minutes he
learned of the American governments
objections and in return gave oral as
surances that these would be prompt
ly overcome. Returning to the embas
sy, the ambassador re-drafted the let
ter originally delivered in New York
and sent it by messenger to the State
department. Secretary Lansing carried
it to the White House and shortly af-
terward announced its text.
The promptness with which Count
Won Bernstorff altered the original
draft Of the letter demonstrated that
he had been empowered to negotiate a
complete settlement Of the case and
not finally accede until the American
government made Known it's unalter-
able determination not to relinquish
any Of its demands.
Secretary Lansing made no comment
on the Ambassadors letter except to
remark that it spoke for itself. He
was very much pleased over the con-
clusion of the case because since the
sinking of the Arabic he inaugurated
the idea Of personal negotiations in
Washington. This method of exchang-
ing views was welcomed by Count Won
Bernstorff also. particularly as he has
had no means Of direct communication
with his government. To this lack of
communication has been attributed
much of the ill feeling that character
lied the early stages of the subma-
rine controversy. Today's events spread
satisfaction everywhere, not only at
the White House, and State depart
ment, but the German embassy as WELL
Won eernstorff Happy
Count Won Bernstorff left here to-
night happy over the results Of his
work. expressing the confident hope
that relations between Germany and
the United States would continue to
improve.
With the settlement Of the Arabic
the dispatch to Great Bri-
tain Of the long delayed American note
on interference with trade is expected
within a few days. President Wilson
has consistently refused to send this
communication while the issues with
Germany were pending. because the
Berlin government had through its
notes, given he impression that on the
action which the United States took
with one st Of blngerents depended its
own conformity to international law.

Permanent Principle
Secretary Daniels declared that if
the policy received the approval of

Congresses to come would follow it in
principle so that yearly expenditure
on the navy could be computed in ad-

 The candy export figures from this country prove it. Europe curtailed the bean n\supply of the United States when Austria's exports were stopped. Now America has retaliated by reducing the quantity of candy sent to the old world.
 The first five months of the war caused decrease of $153,S23 in the value of candy exports from the United States, as compared with the same period of the year before. The value of the total exports of candy for the calander year was $1,185,8 1894.

REALLY NOT A FAIR BET
Young Man Made Wager Which 1t Was Almost Impossible for

There was no sound except the faint and regular tick of watch. Other wise silence and gloom pervaded the elegantly furnished drawing-room.
 In one chair sat a beautiful girl. her lips tightly closed, her eyes star ing straight before her and her every muscle tense with powerful effort of self-control. In another sat a young man whose face expressed se- riousness but confidence. In his hand he held an open watch which he ob- served closely, only raising his eyes now and then to glance at the beauti- full girl, who seemed to be in such agony.
 Five seconds, ten, fifteen, twenty seconds passed. The position Of neither the young man nor beautiful girl had changed.
 Suddenly her eyes gleamed with a wild light; she clasped her hands con vulsively, and
 'T must speak," burst from her bloodless lips.
 "Twenty-four seconds" said the young man. as he closed the watch and put it back into his pocket. You lose the pair of gloves by exactly six seconds"
 He had bet on sure thing.

 .,.A. All SaIesmen.

Inquisitiveness is not generally re- garded as an admirable trait. Yet when inquisitiveness is properly di- rected, it is one of the most useful habits of mind. A story illustrating this point is told by John J. Arnold, vice-president of the First National bank of Chicago. In a talk to em- ployees of the members of the Chi cago Association of Commerce he re- lated the experience of a. young man he had known as boy in wholesale house in Chicago, where the latter started his career as a helper to a salesman.
 He got hold of certain classes of goods,'' MT. Arnold said. "The names appealed to him. He set to work and studied the history of that particular fabric He got the name of the fac tory. He wrote to the factory in Eng land and asked for particulars as to the institution. He studied that in stitution from one end to the other and he studied all of the fabrics, all of the different things that went to make up that particular piece of goods, and in that way he analysed every piece of goods that came into his hands. He was not satisfied mere ly to take the goods and hand them out, but he wanted to know what he was handing out. The result is, to- day he is one of the most expert buy CTS in this city, in one of the greatest wholesale houses. Those are the things that count.

Argument on Suffrage.


 Two women were having a ladylike argument on suffrage in a New York street car I'm not so old-fashicned as to insist that our only place. is in the home, but" said the blonde. 'eWell?" asked the brunette, with bat tie in her dark eyes. Couldn't we save all this trouble and fuss by just leaving things as they are? Why can't we go on letting the men represent us? They do the very best, they can, and everyone I know has a man some where or other in the family The brunette's voice was calm, but firm. Jack is a Republican and I am Democrat. How can he represent me, when he can cast only one vote?" she inquired sternly. For few minutes the little blonde sat very silent. Then she spoke Why, I never thought of that before. If you have misrepre- sentative man in the family, suppose you do need the vote" Her voice sank in a whisper. But please don't say said so."
