Detective Burns had to be in New

n, |, WILSON SHOWS LIMITATION
OF international TRIBUNAL

CLEVELAND, May 13-Henry Lane
Wilson. recently United States Am
bassador to Mexico. at the World
Court Congress here applauded the
design of an international tribunal,
but pointed out its limitations.
He described these as follows:
First. The right or power OF lni-
tiative.
"A tribunal clothed with the author
ity of arbiter of worlds affairs must
rest upon those serene heights which
are not blown by the winds OF pas
sion or moved by the tumults Of the
hour: before contention enters its pre-
cincts it's eyes must be blindfolded. 1t
inust be then a court of spontaneous
appeal, not one affected in its conclu-
sions by the baked funeral meats OF
heated controversy or the necessity OF
justifying the action of its left hand
by the coup de grace OF its right.
From this it should not be inferred
that the executive power necessary to
enforce it's own decree is denied to
the court. On the contrary, 1t should
be amply invested with this power,
Ind behind every decree should lie the
bower of the united signatory nations

who for several years has represented
the National Sweeper company Of this
city and the Standard company OF
Harrington, Conn, in Germany was
forcibly elected from the American
embassy at Berlin by orders of Am

to allegations told the United States
ambassador that he had evidence that
Secretary Bryan had accepted Brit.

and ordered Somborn from the lega
ton. When he refused to comply the
services of butler were brought into
action.
The report said Gerard intended tC
ask the German government to eXpe]
Somborn from the country. The Off
GERS of the National Sweeper company
disclaimed any knowledge Of Som
born's troubles but understand that
he is soon to return to the United

is a more terrible weapon than fleets
and armies. 1t follows that the more
ample the power of enforcement lodg-

tendency to question or resist it's de-
