GARBAGE SITUATION
SOMEWHAT CLEARER
Some Routes Being Extended and New
Route Being Arranged-One More
Collector Finishes Work.

The garbage collection situation has
temporarily cleared a little, and it NAV
be that there win be some permanencc
to the changes. Some days ago it was
reported that several of the garbage
collectors had quit their jobs because
of pigs dying, as the result. they be-
lieved, of feeding them garbage. ana
this week one more collector. III. f.
Haskell, who has collected garbage on
Western avenue, notified Wilson I.
Brown, who is in charge of this depart
ment Of the village activities, that he
had made his last collection.
Henry Clark, who has collected the
garbage of the Memorial hospital and
on Oak Grove avenue and Belmont
avenue, has added Canal street. Brook
street and Horton and Homestead places
to his route, and will collect also from
the restaurants on Main street.
John LiscOmb has begun the collec.
ton from Oak Forest, Chase and Cha.
pin streets and plans TO feed it to his
hens
Mr.. Brown said yesterday that ~
had received another application and
within day or two would arrange a
route. He hopes within few davs ia
have the whole village covered again
without the necessity of adding extra
help for the village TO pay.

MAY HOLD SENATE
IN SPECIAL SESSION
PRESIDENT Hopes for Disposition of
Treaties and Other Important
Business.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 25. - Possibil-
tiles Of an extra session of the senate
alone after March 4 for consi ieration
Of treaties and nominations were be-
ing discussed today among administra-
tion leaders, and while White House
officials refused to say anything on the
subject it was known that President
Wilson is giving it consideration.
Treaties with Columbia to paw $25.-
100000 for the partition of Panama and
Nicaragua to pay $3,OOO,0GO for in
teroceanic canal rights and naval
bases undoubtedly will fail of ratifea-
tiOn at the present session.
The need of action upon them is
considered by the ADMINISTRATION Of
great Importance.
Officials also fear that confirmation
of the federal trade commission will
be delayed
The President, it was said. has no
thought Of an extra Congress as a
whole. Special sessions of the Senate
hitherto have been to confirm nomina-
tions Of cabinet officers.

ALLIES CONSULT PLAN
TO END BLOCKADE
Upon theAttitude of Great Britain De-
pends the Next Move in the
Situation

WASHINGTON, Feb. p. - Great
Britain has submitted to her allies.
France and Russia, the proposals made
by the United States government de-
signed to end the menace to neutral
commerce arising from the retaliatorv
measures of the European belligerents
toward each other.
Briefly, the American PROPOSALS.
which have been submitted to both
England and Germany, seek the elimi-
nation by Germany of the recently
prescribed war zone around Great Brit
ain and Ireland, with its dangers to
neutral shipping through mines and
submarine torpedoes, and the adoption
by all the belligerents Of a definite
policy with regard to the shipment of
foodstuffs destined for the civilian
population of their enemies.
1t is not expected that a reply to
Ethe informal communication from the
American government will be received
here for at least two davs. From sueb
| preliminary observations as American
| diplomatic officers abroad already have
| made, there is said to be some enconr.
agement i'm the manner of the recep-
tion of the proposals in London.
Germany is inclined to an accent.

stood, but upon the attitude of Grear
| Britain depends the next move in the
situation. The strong opposition
which the Scandinavian countries. IT.
| ally, Holland and other neutrals have
assumed toward the retaliatorv meas
ures adopted by the belligerents is
| playing a considerable part in tho
situation. Although the American pro
| posals have not been communicated
to other neutrals, it may be said tha
practically all the neutral government
of Europe are in accord with tn,
| Washington government.

CATTLE SHIPMENTS
LITTLE AFFECTED
Order of Livestock Commissioner Davis
Against Shipments to Boston
Has Been Modified.

The recent order of Fred l.. Davis.
state livestock commissioner, forbid
ding the importation of livestock into
Vermont from Massachusetts, which
has been supplemented by another or
der forbidding cattle from two New
York counties being imported, has lit
tie or no effect on the state cattle in
dustry. Vermont ships cattle for beef
to Massachusetts and what cattle are
imported are of the class desired for
breeding purposes and few of these
come from Massachusetts, The stopping
Of the shipment of cattle from Vermont
to Massachusetts had n far greater ef-
feet on cattle dealers in this state than
does the recent order. The order against
shipping cattle to Boston for slaughter
or export has been somewhat modified
of late and some stock is being shipped
weekly.
