Packers Claims

In a statement tonight outlining
their case as laid before the depart
ment, they declare that the British
government purposely delays settle
ment of their claims for seized car
goes, and that they are not inclined
to reopen trade with neutral coun-
tries unless they can be assured Of
delivery of their shipments to ports
designated
"As reported to the packers by their
representative in England. Alfred R.
Urion,' says the statement, the
latest terms for the release Of the
cargoes as laid down by Great Brit
ain are held to be so onerous as to be
unacceptable Attorney Urion went to
England, arriving there the latter part
of January in response to a request
made by Sir Edward Gray, through
the English embassy at Washington
to discuss the seizure Of the shipments
with a view Of arriving at some con-
clusion in the matter Until week
ago. the packers were assured by their
representative in England the situa-
ton would be amicably. adjusted,
practically all differences having been
agreed upon when the new set Of un-
reasonable terms were suggested by
the authorities and Immediately re-
jected by the packers.
Tho Latest Term.
In brief these latest terms are:
THAT the packers guarantee Great
Britain against claims arising out OF
the detention Of ships.
THAT the packers guarantee Great
Britain against claims of buyers who
products seized.
1.-THE packers assert that this latest
move by Great Britain is only another
step to delay the settlement of the prob
lem and that there appears to be absent
the sincere desire to settle the contro.
versy.'
In their conferences with Mr.. Anderson
the packers were insistent that the
American government should take firm
action and their statements says Of this
phase Of the subject:

in haste.
Place of Surprising Interest.
THE scenery is so fascinating and
wild and wierd, and the solitude so
deep that only the pen of a Hugo or
a Balsac could picture and describe
this interesting dead land Several
years ago a globe trotter who had
earth, awaited himself of the oppor-
tunity to visit these lava fields and on
this occasion descended 500 feet. His
judgment was that if accommodations
were built and road made to these
craters thousands of tourists would
visit them every year, and especially
as they are in line with our hot springs
on Wood river and the Guyer hot
springs near Ketchum, where an hotel
of large dimensions has been built and
is attracting wide attention as a most
delightful place to spend vacation.
Snow and Ice in Depths.
The second largest crater we had the
good luck to visit at the opportune
time. The sun was at its zenith and
lit up the dark recesses of this inter-
testing volcano and showed plainly at
great depth large bodies Of snow and
ice, indicating a subterranean passage
of cold air and probably bodies of wa
ter flowing from the high mountains
that lie north of these bodies of lava.
I want to add that as we enter these
fields of lava of fantastic shapes of
roc kand stone, carved and nodded
and twisted into innumerable forms
by the crater's heat assisted by the
winds and atmosphere; our attention
lis attracted to a beautiful flower that
flourishes extensively in every nook
land corner Of this dead sea of lava.
When we examine this lovely flower
closely we find it to be Idaho's state
flower, the enchanted syringa, which
Hills the air with its fragrance.
1.-THE trip was wrought with many
pleasures and most interesting and
exciting surprises. Anyone who enjoys
nature and her mysteries would feel
we'll repair for visit to this enchant-
ed land--the extinct craters and lava
fields Of Idaho. But don't think Of
making the trip unless you have
guide, for it will be impossible to find
the craters without one"

article written for the Wood River
Times. In part, he says:
Suddenly a vision of wonder and
surprise came into view AS we skirt

the interesting lava fields, like a
beautiful panorama lie before US, and
they seem to have no ending. AS far

nests and rear their young.
Approach to Crater.
About 1890 a. m. we struck off
from the travelled road into a narrow
lane in the direction of these five ex-
tinct craters. Soon the dark cinders
and ashes became too deep for the
auto to pillow through. We started on
foot but did not go far until the soli-
