Terre Haute, Ind.
Officials Convicted
GERMANS PREFER CHARGES
Teutons Declare United States Is Not
Maintaining Strict Neutrality.
Reply Will Be Sent

Washington.-Count Won Bernstorff,
the German ambassador, made public
the text of the note he recently pre-
sented to the state department de-
claring that "if the American people
desire to observe true neutrality they
will find means to stop the exclusive
expectation, of arms to one side, or
at least to use this export trade as
means to uphold the legitimate trade
with Germany, especially the trade in
foodstuffs."
The memorandum was prepared at
the German embassy, and while it
does not call for reply, the state de-
partment already has drafted one
which will be delivered probably with
in the next few days.
The ambassador. in his complaint,
informs the United States that con-
trary to the real spirit of neutrality,
an enormous new industry of war ma
terial of every kind is being built up
in this country and that this is Sup
plying only Germany's enemies, fact
which is in no way modified by the
purely theoretical willingness to fur
nish Germany as well as If it were
possible"

PEkIN CONFERENCE
Believed Treaty Negotiations Between
Japan And China Are
Near Close

Washington.-Alth very reti-
cent as to details, officials here con-
versant with the Japanese-Chinese ne
gotiations gave the impression that
they believed the Pekin conferences
were nearing conclusion which
would prove generally satisfactory.
According to advices, the confer
ences of the last few days have clear
ed up many of the misunderstanding
over Japan's demands.
Officials declined to comment on
Pekin dispatches giving outlines Of
the American note to Japan and the
latter's reply, but so encouraging did
the negotiations seem that some Of
those familiar with their general
trend expressed the belief that no
further exchange of notes with Japan
would be necessary to safeguard
American policy in the Far East.

Separate Peace Terms Between Austria
And Russia Are Feared By
Both Sides
ITALY IS EAGER FOR WAR
Recent Muscovite Successes In The
carpathans Gives Key To
Hungarian Plains

London.-Russian successes in the
Carpathians, where the Muscovites
are now said to control virtually all
the important passes and are prepar-
ing for a descent onto the plains of
Hungary, have revived unofficial talk
of separate peace for Austro-Hungary,
and seemingly increasing anxiety on
the part of interventionists in Italy
for their country to take up arms on
the side of the allies and obtain terri
tory which they have failed to get in
the negotiations through Germany
with Austria.
Russian newspapers seem convinc-
ed that Hungary, if not the whole
of the dual monorchy, is ready to
seek peace, and it is said that EN-
peror Francis Joseph has requested
Pope Benedict to intervene in their
behalf
Except in Italy, the neutral country
most directly interested in this ques-
tion, little credence is given this re-
port, although the opinion is express
ed in military circles here that if
Russia breaks down the joint resist
ance of the Austro-GermaR troops in
the Carpathians as she apparently has
that of the Austro-Hungarian armies,
Hungary at least will be ready to
bring the war to an end as far as she
is concerned.

PRESIDENT PLANS TRIP
President Wilson Expects To Take
Deferred Trip To Frisco II 1t

Washington. President Wilson
plans to make his delayed trip to the
San Francisco exposition as soon as
foreign affairs permit. The date is
still uncertain. The presidents ad-
visers, it has become known, are anx-
ious for him to make a number Of
speeches in different parts of the
county before the next congress
meets.
Friends of the president say the
contemplated trip cannot be called a
campaign tour" and they are pre-
venting, as far as possible, the forma-
ton of Wilson clubs" to avoid even
the appearance of starting boom.
Although political advisers of Mr..
Wilson say privately they have no
doubt that he will be renominated, it
was indicated that there will be no
formal launching of his candidacy, as
such a step might embarrass him in
carrying out the policies of his ad-
ministration.

of ICON" in one of his academic
subjects.
Another omen of Gopher success
in Strengthening line defense was
the temperance at practice Monday
of Jack Townley. Townley is be-
yond hope for the 1915 team, but
he'll serve as great trial horse,
playing his tackle position on the
second team.
Haedge, 1914 quarter and end,
will likely get into a suit this week.
He has needed a distress signal for
end material. Saturdays game
showed lack of substitutes for that
position. Spraafka is about the only
man available to use in case of acci-
dent to Baston or Quist. 1t is also
possible. that Ballentyne, the sur
prise Of Saturday, will be shot over
to a wing. He is veteran of South
High school and Hamline at that po-
sition and under Williams forma
tions can be as effective in carrying
the ball from that position as he was
at halfback Saturday.

Dutch Leonard-Generally con-
ceded to be the best southpaw in the
game. Came to Boston several years
ago, and has always been brilliant
performer. Hung up the best record
in the American league last year for
effectiveness, as he allowed only one
and a fraction runs per game. Has
been one of Carrigan's most depend
able pitchers this season, finishing
with an average of over 700. Some
critics have selected Leonard as the
man to face Alexander in the opener,
although the majority favor Shore.
George Foster-One of the smallest
and most effective pitchers in the
American league this season. Much
of. the Red Sox success this season
has been due to this diminutive
mound man. He has worked in
thirty odd games of which he has
won twenty. Practically certain he
will face the Phils in one or more
of the battles.

varied career-last year he won lot
of games and was rated one of the
best chuckers in the circuit, but has

CHIPPEWA INDIANS
URGED TO SETTLE
ALL LAND CASES
(Continued from nrst page).

still their guardian, and therefore,
notwithstanding the treaties, the
white man might do what he pleased
with the Indian. It strikes me that
it must be clear to anyone that that
was very peculiar, not to say un-
fair position.
Word Frequently Broken.
II have always believed that the
Indian should have some voice in the
details of affairs, the same as the
white man insists upon. For this I.
have been condemned, but that does
not concern you nor does it very
much concern me-. If the position is
right that is sufficient.
"Following the plan of making
treaties the white man began to move
the Indians from time to time fur
ther west. Each time the white man
would say so long as the sun shines,
the water runs and the wind blows
there shall be no more change. OF
course as more white men came and
the country settled, they had to make
new treaties constantly and move the
Indians further and further west
..s.. "The Greatest Wrong" -
but the greatest wrong the white
man did the Indians was to keep
him like child instead of putting
him on his feet like man. OF
course, property is desirable, but the
spirit that finally makes man is
more necessary. Following this plan
of moving the Indians from time to
time further and further west we
have that plan of what they call the
allotment. I can take a white boy
in any white family and by paying
SO a month until he is As, I can
still keep him boy. But putting
the buy upon his own feet will final
ly make a man of him. Every In
dian in the United States has got
to remain a mere child or he has got
to have some opportunity to make
himself. Il ..
Crrx of the Question.
"Every poorhouse in America is
proof that there are some white peo-,
pie who have not been able to take
care of themselves. But the great
cities, the great farms, the great
railroad, the great growth of this
country is proof that while there
are those. who fail, there must also
be an opportunity for those who win.
"No one would think of taking
property of an: Indian who had had
no opportunity to observe, who was
old without any experience, and turn
it to loss. While it, would be wrong
to turn property to the man without
experience, it is equally wrong to
keep the property from the young
man who has experience and who is
able to take care of this property.
And between these two extremes, be-
tween being careful not to turn
property where It ought not to be,
and to turn it over where it should
be- lies the difficulty today of the In
dian question in this country. And
believe that just as far as it is
reasonable to turn the property over,
it should be turned over to the indi-
vidual. -~
Commends Commissioner.
81 believe that Commissioner Cato
Sells is trying hard to serve the. In
dians, and believe that his assistant
is also trying hard. OF course, they
have to take the words Of others for
these things because there are
great many Indian> reservations in
the country" .-.-
