Propaganda Meets Oppo-
SitiOn In Unexpected
Quarters.
CONSERVATIVE ORGAN
AMONG THE "ANTIS"
The Toronto Telegram Says
Imperial Union Would Wreck,
Not Help, Empire.

Toronto, Canada. Feb. 6.-The polit-
zeal group in Canada and in the Moth
or Country who want 10 federate the
British Empire are impatient lest they
may be unable TO take advantage OF
the present crisis 70 put their scheme
into actual operation. THE Times
and other English newspapers are
printing articles from their Canadian
correspondents representing the people
of the dominions rs perturbed in spirit
as TO their future in the empire and
clamoriug for a real voice in imperial
affairs. When peace comes TO be made
and the terms are being fixed 1t is
represented that the dominions which
are contributing their blood and
treasure" must have some voice in the
settlement.
This argument, of course, puts its
nnger on one Of the anomalies OF the
British Empire. The dominions are
taking part in war in the making OF
which they had absolutely no voice.
In a very special sense il is theirs
but to do and die" And yet, despite
the pcrturbance in spirit that IS
pictured, it il doubtful II there is
any very fervent desire to alter the
present situation. The lack of such
desire is sometimes ridiculed by the
faderationists as showing an absence
OF self-respect.
The federationists on their part are
not content TO leave we'll enough alone
The spontaneous loyalty and devotion
to the empire Of the last six months
they seem 10 fear, might not be IN
evidence another time. They want TO
nail it down so it can't get away.
Undoubtedly, the heated loyalty OF
the moment favors their plan. 1t ough'
TO be easy TO put out OF court any one
who would dare to oppose at this crisis
closer relations within the empire by
merely charging such a one with DIS
loyalty. And yet the propaganda IS
meeting opposition in unexpected quar-
tiers. For example, THE Toronto Tel
egram," d Conservative organ, one o,
tie most ardent opponents OF reel
procity. Just as ardent all advocate o.
donating dreadnoughts TO the Nortf
Sea feet, and which includes IN II,
special constituency the British born,
might be expected to be loyal pro
tagonist of the federationists. But i
declares itself unequivOcally among th'
ants. Imperial federation it declares
would prove to be the ,wrecker, no
the builder up, Of the British Empire
No emergency that turks in the future
of the free nations will be as tremen
dous as the perils which are now be
ing conquered without the help OF thu
imperial federation

LAURELS IN WAR
Operations Elicit High
Praise-American HOspi-
tai i'm Paris Model.
fBy Cab. 70 ne rrbun.

Paris, Feb. 6.-The American Ambu-
larce Hospital at Neuilly-sur-Seine has
just won additional lsurels, OF which
all Americans may we'll be proud. a
delegation of French military and civil
surgeons. under the guidance OF Dr.
Alexis Csrrcl. yesterday made thor
ough technical inspection Of the hos
pital, which all admit is the model
institution of its kind established dur
ing the war.
Ar innovation in French surgery OF
extraordinary success consists OF oper-
ations performed without chloroform,
which is sdvantsgeously replaced by
general anesthesia obtained BY in
halations Of protoryde Of szote and
oxygen followed by local and progress
slve snRsthesia, preventing a reflex
OF pain afterward. These operations
are daily performed by three doctors,
Grille, Bouchet and Mignot.
Professor Samuel Pozzi, DR.. Csrrel,
Professor Tufier and other high su-
thorities are unanimous in the convic-
ton that the surgical experiences OF
this war demonstrate the supreme i'm
portance Of dental science in the broad
est sense OF the term. Never before
nave Deen recOrded Sucn an eJtraordl-
nary number of wounds affecting the
jaws, teeth and bones Of the skull, all
of which require the most complicated
special dental treatment
So far this work has been satisfae-
torily accomplished BY American den
tiStry. A dozen American dentists now
work night and day in the hospitals,
being summoned as surgical specialists
by the military and civil authorities.
The scientific opinion OF the French
faculty now is that this war marks Q
revolution in the science Of dentistry
by placing this branch in the highest
class Of surgery and obtaining for
dentists status never before accorded
to their profession.
DR.. Alexis Carrel read Q paper 70 the
French, American, British and Russian
surgeons at the American hospital
clinic, comparing the arts Of killing
and OF healing. He showed thst, large
ly owing to the latest perfection in
dentistry, the art Of healing, from a
purely scientific standpoint, has made
since the war fully as much progress
as that Of killing.

these two banking houses Mr.. Inter
myer did not specify them.
There are now 1929 miles in the
hands of receivers or otherwise under

that 81 900 miles and upward are head

Mr.. Untermyer says that the remedy
for this increasing banking domino
ton" lies In more effective public con
troll, in the reform OF our methods OF
selecting directors and a better form
Of representation for stockholders and
in paving directors adequately for their
services and holding them 20 higher
degre Of possibility.
Another letter was received by the
commission. this from Abraham Flex-
ner, assistant secretary OF the Rookie
Teller General Education Board and a
brother Of DR.. Simon FleXner. Mr.
FleXner expressed anger because after
he had been requested 10 testify nC
found that arrangements OF the com
mission made his appearance on the
stand impossible. He was later asked
TO give his information in written
form.
"Thc nature OF the questions asked
Of me" paragraph Of his letter reads
is such that | feel very sure tina;
neither you nor the other members OF
the commission have any idea OF the
questions themselves. and still less OF

He launches then into a denunciatior
of Dr. Allen and refuses TO answer the
questions submitted 10 him.

ASKS $4,000 HEART BALM
Widow of German Nobleman
Sues Husbands ex- Partner.

Mrs. Anna c. Won Caspis, widow OF
. German nobleman, filed suit yester-
day in the Supreme Court against
George Fritz for $4,000 for breach Of
promise. Fritz, now an importer OF au-
tomobile tires, was formerly in bust
ness with Won Csspis at Pittsfeld, Mass.
Won Caspis died in 1910, and immedi-
a.ely after his death, the widow al
leges, Fritz began 10 show her atten-
ton. and In January, 1911, promised TO
marry her on his return from trip
to Europe. Mrs. Won Caspts says that,
although she spent $1,000 on trous-
seau, Fritz postponed the wedding and
eventually broke the news to her that
in May, 1914, he had married one Hazel
Hastings.

/ 81 am convinced that as result OF
this hearing, where the cause OF labor
was so ably set forth by Lawson and
Costigan, and the principles that ought
to govern industry enunciated by all
the leaders, there will never be recur-
renee of the Colorado strike, IL We may
assume, as was stated by the witnesses,
that the trouble all came from the re-
fusal of the employers to confer with
the men.
ut was Of immense benefit for Mr..
Rockefeller, jr., to confer with John
R. Lawson. II was equally important,
from the psychological point OF view,
for Mr. Rockefeller, ST., TO take the
stand in the honest way he did. He
was a splendid witness, showing a won
derful mentality and a sincerity Of
opinion that will go far 10 alter the
popular impression of him. The very
fact that he appeared at all will do
much 20 remove the air OF mystery
with which he has been surrounded.
deplore the fact that engagements pre-
vented him and his son from attending
more OF the hearings. They would have
done them both good.
Try To Be Impartial.
This commission has tried 20 sound
the depths on both sides of the indus
trial problem. | am grievcd 20 note
that some OF the papers have implied
that the hearing was not impartial and
that We leaned perhaps too strongly
toward the union organizations, but |
am hoping that this impression has
arisen from the fact that il is & little
unusual for commission TO 60 so
deeply into the complaints OF labor.
We have had the ablest attorneys OF
the capitalist organization attending:
They have suggested witnesses and
lines Of inquiry, and in no case have
their suggestions been overruled.
Mr.. Walsh gave up one OF the larg-
est law practices in the West when he
accepted the $40 day position on the
industrial commission two years ago,

lola, Kan, Sept. Flight of the F persons reported missing have been taken uninjured from the flood which resulted today from the cloudburst of last night, during which six inches of rain fell. Four section hands of the Missouri, Kansas and Texas rail way were washed from the handeaf upon which they were hurrying to safety, and took refuge on a crossing sign. Later the current swept away the sign and the men were drowned.
 With hundreds homeless and confusion prevailing everywhere, it was impossible tonight to obtain an accurate casualty or death list. Persons still were being rescued from housetops and trees. The flood already is abating, and Elm creek probably will be back within its banks in a few day.
 As the water recedes the town has become oyerrun with snakes.  Hundreds of reptiles of all kinds are crawling through abandoned houses in East lola
 Stock rai5ers have suffered 6 a heavy loss. Scores of carcasses were seen floating in the flood waters today.
