Clark to invite Secretary and Mrs Bryan

Clark and Bryan as a result of Clark's
defeat in the Baltimore convention, and
the fact that it takes n mighty big man
not to be a mighty small man at times.
The only persons hurt by an exhibition

Manila, March Conditions are
still serious at Singapore as result
of the mutiny among Indian troops
early in February. if reports brought
here yesterday by passengers on the
steamer st. Egbert are well founded.
According to these stories, execu
tions are taking place every day in
the public squares of Singapore. Hun
dreds of mutineers are said to be still
at large, and it is considered possible
that an entire regiment was involved
in the revolt.
The latest reports are to the effect
that fifteen Germans from the detan-
tion camp joined the mutineers. Ten
of them have been recaptured. it is
said, and sentenced to long terms of
Imprisonment. Some quarters of
Singapore are still considered unsafe.
and residents have been ordered to

VAN DYKE REPORT ON cARlB
Evelyn Entered the Mine Zone
Despite of Owners Orders.

Washington. Feb. 24.--OfFicial no
tioe of the sinking of the American
steamer Carib in the North Sea
reached the State Department today
in a oablegram from DR.. Henry van
Dyke, the American Minister to Hol-
land, which read:
American steamship Carib report
ed sunk in North Sea outside route
prescribed by German instructions. "
The German instructions were is
sued ON Nov. Is in the form of an Of
fetal notice to mariners published by
the German Government for the benz
fit of all concerned. These instruc-
tions provided that all ships bound
for the German coast and going to
Bremen, Hamburg, and other points
must first point their course for the
Lister Deep Buoy, on the Island OF
Sylt, north of the entrance to the
River Weser, through which Bremen
is approached$
II was learned tonight that all cot
ton shippers who had applied to the
German Embassy in Washington for
routing instructions for ships goin5
to Bremen had been advised to pro-
ceed around the north of Scotland
and then along the Danish coast to
the Lister Deep Buoy, where they
might obtain German pilot. The
employment Of this pilot was obhga-
tory for safety. Before the Captain
of the Evelyn sailed from New York
for Bremen he received routing in
structions which had been obtained
from the German Embassy. and these
instructions directed that the Evelyn
go around the north of Scotland to
Lister Deep Buoy and pick ZIP Ger
man pilot. This is the route, it was
definitely learned tonight, by which
all ships chartered by the Harris-lrby
Company of New York which sent
the cotton shipment in the Evelyn
were directed to sail
