CONFERENCE OF
PAN-AMERICANS
FlNANcIERS AND BANKERS OF
LATIN REPUBLICS TO COME
TO WASHINGTON.
DATE SET FOR MAY TENTH
More Satisfactory Commercial and
Financial Relations Will Be Dis
c"7sed at Meeting of Diplo-
mats and Bankers.

hington-President Wilson has
selected Monday, May 10, as the date
for the Pan-American financial con
ference in this city, at which the min
listers of finance and leading bankers
of Central and South American coun-
tries will meet flnanciers and treas
ury officials of the United States to
discuss the establishment of more
satisfactory financial and commercial
relations between the nations of the
western hemisphere.
In statement Sunday night, Sec
rotary McAdoo said all of the for
eign governments had responded fav-
orably when approached informally
regarding the conference, and that
formal invitations would be sent them
Immediately. Congress authorized
the conference and appropriated $780,
600 for expenses.
. "The secretary of the treasury"
said Mr.. McAdoo, lis given authority
to invite, in his discretion, represen-
tative American bankers to partici-
pate in the conference. This discre-
ton will be exercised so as TO Sc
cure the attendance of as large a num-
Der as is practicable of our represen-
tative financiers, in order that a thor
ough and comprehensive discussion
may be had of existing financial con-
ditions throughout the western hem
isphere, and OF the measures that
should be adopted to strengthen fin.
ancial and trade relations between the
United States and our Central and
South American neighbors.
THE secretary of commerce, the
members of the federal reserve board.
the secretary of state and all other
members of the cabinet will be asked
to attend the conference. A similar
invitation will be extended to the
diplomatic representatives of the var
ious Central and South American
countries and to Mr. John Barrett,
director of the Pan-American Union.
To Discuss Bank Extension.
1T is a significant fact that our
exports to South America reached the
lowest point for the year 1914 in the
months of October, November and De-
cember. when they were reduced to
less than one-half of those for the
same months of 1913. This decline
is, in great measure, due to the
scarcity of ships and the exhorbitant
rates Of freight now being charged. -

Or Send 12e
Must Have Hsalthful Sleep.

Edison, the inventor, has been
quoted as saying that little sleep is
necessary, and that the time will come
when mankind will not sleep at all,
and therefore not waste a fourth or
fifth of valuable time in the "a hours
of the day in a condition equivalent
to death. At the moment, of course.
Mr.. Edison was breaking into the role
of the professional humorist. All OF
the things called nature demands rest.
and the most eloquent description OF
misery ever written was that in Mac
BETH" when it was declared that the
murderous thane should sleep no more
that he had murdered sleep, So the
person who fails to have health
full sleep has in one way or another
murdered sleep.

Method.

Lansing-Figures compiled show
that petitions containing the names
OF 1858 persons have been received
In both houses favoring the fare in
crease asked by the railroads, while
but 10 persons have petitioned the
legislature not to allow the proposed
Increase.
An examination OF these petitions
reveals the fact that they come from
all sections of the state. The upper
peninsula is probably better repre-
sented than any other section, but
OF the railroads there, and of course
is interested in the proposed increase.
The 10 names, representing those
who have petitioned the legislature as
opposed to the increase, come from
members of the state grange and a
few commercial travellers. There
was a day or two recently when the
petitions from commercial travellers
began to pour in, but suddenly they
stopped. The employers of this class
are for the increase, generally speak
ing, if letters and petitions can be
relied upon. Personal letters, for or
against, are not included in the above
computation OF figures.
Labor unions, railway associations
composed of railroad employees, large
shippers and prominent business men
go to make up the majority of the pc
titions for the increase. Many also
come from points along the lines OF
the Pere Marquette and other rail.

state that are sparsely settled and

would work a hardship to the resi-.

COURT DECIDES FOR DANHOF
Governors Choice for Superior Judge
At Grand Rapids Is Confirmed.

Lansing-Peter ]. Danhof is the le-
gal judge of the superior court Of
Grand Rapids, according to a decision
]. Stuart died, the Grand Rapids city
council appointed Joseph Renihan to
fill the vacancy thus created, claiming
that because the court was a city
court it had the power of appoint
ment. Governor Ferris appointed
Danhof and the case was carried into

The supreme court holds that as
the superior court is a court of record
the appointing power rests solely with

They AGREE ON IT
Mortgage Registration Tax Bill
Thru Conference Committee.
In All Probability This Measure
Will Become a Law.

Conferees of the house and senate
today agreed on compromise provi-
sions of a mortgage registration tax
bill and it is prOba Bile that the meas
ure will become a law before the close
of the week. Concessions were made
on the part of both house and senate
concerning the registration fee and the
committee recommended fee of fif-
teen cents hundred dollars on each
mortgage.
AS passed by the senate, the regis
tration tax bill provided for a record
ing fee of ten cents each one hum
dred dollars The house amended the
bill to provide for a fee of twenty
cents a hundred dollars. The house,
also inserted a provision limiting the
total recording tax in any one instance
to $4,000. The cOnferees agreed to
this latter provision and compromised
on the tax.
When the report of the conference
committee was read in the house this
afternoon consideration of the report
was deferred until Wednesday morn
ing. Copies of the report will be
printed and distributed before final
action is taken. If the house and SEN
ate concur, the measure will soon be-
come 1t law. If they fail to approve
the work of the committee, another
conference will be asked.

been before the last three sessions of

LABOR BILL Up.
House Considers Revision WorLmen's
Compensation Measure.

Revision of the workmen's compen-
sation act is under consideration in
the house this afternoon and it is
probable that the afternoon session
will be occupied with a discussion of
the bill by the house labor committee.
The committee bill makes numerous
drastic changes in the present law
and is regarded as the most important
bit of labor leSiSla ton before the law
makers at this session.
Included in the committee bill is a
schedule of damages to be allowed
wOrbingmen for injuries through loss
of land, foot, eye, finger or other
member. Provision for medical treat
ment is also provided in the bill and
slap is taken at the "snitch'' lawyer
through a provision seeking to en-
force direct settlement between the
employer and employee. Friends of
the measure have declared the amend
ed bill the best compensation act
passed by any state.

TRICK OF THE WAR.
Earl Kitchener Started Story About
Russian Troops in England.

London. March 1.-The famous
hoax of the first weeks of war, when
a body of Russian soldiers said to
number from 100000 to 100000 was
reported to have circled around from
Archangel landed in Scottish ports
and beer shipped through at night to
reinforce the British force in France,
originated with Lord Kitchener him
self according to a statement made by
British officer to a correspondent
of the Daily Dispatch.
1t is noteworthy fact that al
though the myth spread like wildfire
through the United Kingdom, with
any numberof witnesses to swear they
in their native language, the press bu-
reau did not issue an official contra
diction for a long period. The Rus
sian story says the British officer was
designed to impress the German COM
manders in Belgium and northern
France and to keep them in fear of a
surprise either in the rear or on the
western flank. 1t accomplished its
purpose. for this dread was real
among the German staff and accounts
to some extent for the retreat of Gen
eral Won Kluck from Paris.
To give color to the report Lord
Kitchener is said to have caused
hundred transports laden with sundry
goods to be sent from Scottish ports
to Archangel after insuring them in
Holland. When the British troops
were moved from various points in
the channel ports, he ordered the
blinds of the trains to be lowered so
as to arouse popular curiosity and
speculation.
