two weeks. Secretary Lansing leaves
Friday for q fortnight's vacation. Ger

expect to return here during that

Much Importance was attached In
official quarters today to Bernstorh's
declaration IN New York that the en-
tire controversy would be settled
within two weeks. His optimism was
not, however, reflected by omcials
here.

The Dispute With England.
fBy Charles p. Stewart, United Press
Stan Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.-THE An
glo-American situation was temporar-
lily more urgent today than the Ger
man-American difficulty.
The sharpest note the administra-
ton has yet addressed to London was
predicted In well informed quarters
should q pending investigation by Con-
sui General Skinner prove the trEth OF
American importers charges that
English private interests are obtain
ing notifications OF the order in coun-
ell which have been denied to Ameri,
cans.
AS long ago as September 8, Ambas-
sador Page notified the state depart
ment he had been advised by the Brit
ish foreign Office that I'm few days"
arrangements would be made to per-
NIT shipment through neutral ports of
German-Austr1an goods contracted for
by Americans before the order in
council went into effect.
Great numbers Of American import,
ers promptly wrote or telegraphed to
the British embassy here for fuller
information. An Investigation OF An
glo-American trade relations since
then reveals the following facts:
THE British embassy told the
American importers to file their con.
tracts for German and Austrian goods
with the American trade advisers. to
be forwarded after certification, to
the embassy.
2--The embassy has never indicated
to the trade advisers IN tangible form
its willingness to receive such proofs.
S-Applicatfons, representing mil
lions OF dollars, have piled up at the
trade advisers ONCE which cannot
file them with the embassy until the
latter indicated its willingness to
handle them.

IN MEMORY OF DR.. WE. SPENCE, CAESAR

We, the members of Caesar Lodge,
No. 456, Free and Accepted Masons.
Bretheren--S Since our last regular COM
munication the hand Of she spoiler has
been among US. His grasp has been
laid upon the pillars of our edifce and
I one of its cherished columns lies in the
| dust
Bro. Spence was initiated past and
raised in the OH, johnson Army Lodge
at Vicksburg, Miss, in 1862. Was de-
mitted from same by Grand Secretary
Power in 1866 and has since that time
been affiliated with ana master of five
other lodges. We find oarselvss at a
very great disadvantage in attempting
to portray the life of Bro. Spence, be-
| cause we loved him SO vel and find our
emotions overcome, easr thoughts so
that we are unable to te with that
force and earnestness niDent vir-
tues deraaa7aa i.sss ssss-
greatest praise for it bundled out in
beauty. Hence wols seem cold to
those who knew his loving heart, and
praise seem imperfect beside his good
deeds. But we loved him; we miss him.
But we cannot for the life of us feel
the grasp typified by the vacant chair
draped in the habiliments of mourning.
The grave is but the gate to eternal life
for those who lived the kind of life Bro.
Spence lived
Why weep for him? His busy brain
and tlreless hand will now rise in the
glorious new life beyond the grave.
The widows and the orphans have lost a
friend. They will not again see the
outstretched hand or hear the kindly
voice He is not dead but gone before.
Ii this life was all and the grave was
the period Of our existence then none
would feel more keenly for his family
and all those dear to him than we. We
would shu6der to think that Brother
Spence was moulderng in the grave and
that there was no disembodied spirit of
this great and good man on the other
shore. We would then say drape the
vacant chair in mourning; let the widow
' ear the mourning and the friends shed
their tears with those sorely bereaved.
Brother Spence died January 10, 1915,
at the age of 73 years. BY his death his
wife has lost a devoted husband, his
children loving father, and masonry
one of its brightest jewels. and the
country one of its successful physicians
and truest citizens. We could not pay
( higher tribute to the memory of DIR.
Spence than to say he always found it
more blessed to give than to receive.
He responded to every call with his
heart and mind to suffering humanity.
He did allin his power to relieve their
pain; sympathized with their condition
and shared their sorrows.
But this great and good man has
gone from amongst us. The lofty struc
ture of his fame was the conception of
his own genius, the result of his own
labors. He leaves no treasures of gold
or other wealth, but leaves his honest
name. He needs no slab Of marble with
its white and ghastly head TO tell travel
ers in the valley the virtues of the dead.
Let the lily be mis- tomb stone, the dew
drop pure and bright the epitaph the
angels write in the stiffness of the night.
