How Signals Arranged For Between

Were Carried On.

The captain had not been long mar
ried when he was ordered into camp.
To be sure. the camp was in plain
sight of the captains residence, but
then it was still separation; and to
tighten this terrible condition it was
arranged that the bereaved h lsband
and wife should signal to each other
often with their handkerchiefs. 1t was
on the second day that the young wife
was seated on the porch reading. Tell

as quickly denied by experts who de-
clared that no provision of the La

catastrophe of single horror. And
now comes the announcement that
the law officials of the administration
are agreed that the law does not ap-
ply to foreign ships entering our
ports. Though this view was told
from the first by those who studied
the law closely 1t was fond boast
of its advocates that we were going
to do terrible things to the foreign
shipping interests. The decision that
the laws cannot be applied to foreign
craft announced by the attorney gen
eral. should end all doubt as to what
the effect on American shipping will
be. The president is said to be study

AIll ana SantO domingo share
jointly an island comprising
roughly about $4,000 square
miles, and having a total pop
ulation of nearly 100000.
Haiti has nearly the population OF
Santo Domingo, but only little more
than half its area.
For 100 years Haiti and for half
that period Santo Domingo have been
cause of continual anxiety to the
United States. Since gaining their
Independence both have been in a
state of constant upheaval and blood
shed as result Of a practically un-
broken succession of revolutions. In
the last 20 years United States naval
vessels have been in almost constant
attendance about the island, and ma
rines have several times been landed
for the protection of foreign life and
property. 1t is no exaggeration to
say that Haiti and Santo Domingo
have cost the United States more
money in the last 20 years than would
have been spent had this government
