NATIONS
 ID VOICE OBJECTION ID SEAMEN'S BILL
U. s. Notifies Powers It Intends to Terminate Pro- visions in Treaties That
 Conflict With Act

Washin etOn, June 1f--TweBty-one of
 have been notified by the United States that 1t intends to terminate provisions of existing treaties with those conn
 tries which are in conflict with the
 scamcn's act passed by the last Con-
 gFess.
 It was learned today that this notice was given as required by the law through
 the American embassie and legations, just within the prescribed limit of 90 days from March last, when the act was approved.
 Previous denuneiations of treaties by the United States have covered the en- tire conventions. It remains to be seen
 whether the nations interested in the present instance will consent to the ex-
 cision of certain articles to meet the provisions of the seamen's act. If they
 will not consent to this, then the state
 department is under obligation to cancel all of the treaties.
 Such a proceeding would result in de- stroying between the United States and all these nations provisions for the set clement of estates, the transfer of prop erty. the exercise of consular functions. diplomatic immunities. customs and port and lighthouse dues. and hundred other subjects which have formed the basis of treaty regulations and stipulatons be- tween civilized powers.
 Far Reaching Result Then it would become necessary for the state department to immediately be- gin negotiations for new treaties to pre- vent the infiction of serious injury upon the business and diplomatic relations of the United States. Objection already has been made to the seamen's act by Spain. Italy. Austria Hungary, The Netherland and Great Brit ain and 1t is known that other European governments are prepared to adopt q similar course. Generally speaking, these objections are based upon the provisions (Continued on Page Nine)

Aicong other features cf the existing lew that re- ouires radical treatment is the prac- tlce of giving robatoa of taxes in pro portion of the number of salmon fry liberated from private hatcheries. Such hatcheries should be acquired by the government ct fair valuation. The proposed measure was introduced in the house of representatives, but failed to become a law. It is earnestly hoped that favorable action will be taken at the next session of congress-
 "Congress will be asked to provide further facilities for enforcing the fisheries laws. Two staunch motor boats are now required These will not meet all the requirements but will nll all the more urgent needs. When these are provided. they will. with the Roosevelt and vessel to replace the the Osprey, be reasonable begin ming. and but beginning, of the means for supervision which over 2O,- 900 miles of coast require, having a fishery of over S21,OOo,ooO annual val ue. One can hardly expect in these distant regions that the law shall be preatlv respected when the law has not shown sufficient respect for itself to provide respectable means for its enforcement
 "The sundry civil bill making ap- proprlalions for the fiscal year 1915 provided for an increase in the number of wardens .n the Alaska service. This made 1t possible for the department to extend to a limited degree It's work In the way of protecting the fisheries and furbearing animals of Alaska"

heard so much. and It was mainly at
her request that the party started
on what turned out to be her last
ride. They had been at Colorado
Springs Saturday and that afternoon
left for this city. They remained in
town over night and about o'clock
motored out Main street to the road
leading u the west entrance.
Miss Wright was at the wheel In
the seat with her was her cousin, Mr.
Blue. while Mrs. Blue and Mrs.
Wright were in the rear seat II was
glorious morning for motoring and
all were entranced at the beautiful
view which was unfolding before
them. Mrs. Wright was the happiest
OF all and remarked several times
what glorious ride II was and how
much she was gratified that she had
been able TO make the trip.
The ascent to the crest was made
in safety. and there the party stop
ped for while to get the full beneft
OF the view. Then the descent was
commenced. The turn at Mount c;eg-
horn was ..assed In safety and the
long reach down the eastern slope
was next gone over without any trou-
bic. the brakes and the steering gear
working finely. The short abrupt
turn at the second descent was also
passed all right and II was at the
next and last turn when the car was
almost down - the bottom when
the accident occurred with terrifying
suddenness. There was not time to
avoid disaster. II vas fortunate af-
ter all that the others In the car
were not more severely hurt.
Miss Wright was on the verge OF
prostration during the day and IL
was with difficulty that she could be
caimed. She moaned her grief at the
death OF her mother. holding that
she was the cause OF her death. MIR.
Blue and his VIE. sought to calm
the frenzied girl but with small sue
cess until several hours had passed
They declare that neither Miss
Wright nor the roadway was respon-
sible for the disaster. asserting that
1t was one OF those unavoidable acci-
dents that is liable to occur anywhere
and without the slightest warning.
Relatives in @ueblo were notified
OF the accident and the critical con
dition OF Mrs. Wright On receipt of
the message, Mr. and Mrs. Taylor
Thorne. OF Tioga. Colo. the latter a
daughter, came to Canon City in a
car. arriving just a few minutes be-
fore Miss Wright passed away. She
was unconscious at the, time and
remained so until the end came. The
bereaved relatives returned to Pue-
bio in the evening. The body of Mrs.
Wright was prepared for burial by
A. E. Wilson and shipped to Pueblo
on No. ls this morning.
