United States Hopes to Stabi-

Treaty Submitted to Officials of Black

Washington, Aug. 26.-Secretary
Lansing said the treaty the United

for its sole purpose the establish
ment of a stable government, which
could be entirely turned over to the
Haitiens themselves.
The American charge at Port au
Prince has asked the Haitien govern
ment for an answer to the American
proposals.
I'VE have only one purpose" said
Secretary Lansing, that is to help the
Haitien people and prevent them from
being exploited by irresponsible revo-
lutionists. These are not properly
revolutions, they are unorganized en-
terprizes. which involve no question
OF principle, and they are running the
country.
while they are in progress people
are starving in the streets of Port an
Prince, because they cannot procure
the supplies of food which abound
in the country. Things have been go
ing from bad to worse and something
must be done. The United States
government has no purpose of aggres
sion and is entirely disinterested in
promoting this protectorate."

IOWANS ARE ON HALTED SHIP
Presence Of Four Germans on Board
Causes Delay of Sew
eral Days.

Estherville.-L H. Saveride, a boot
and shoe maker who recently purchas-
ed business in this city. arrived
from the east with his family, whom
he went to meet on their arrival from
Norway.
Mrs. Saveride and children left Ber-
gen on June 16 and should have
reached their new country some time
ago. but because the ship on which
they sailed, the Christian-fiord, was
captured by the English war ships
and taken back to Stonewa,l, Eng
land. they were delayed. Mr.. Saver
ide knew the vessel and the date on
which they left the old country and
as day after day passed and the ship
was not reported into New York, he
felt grave fears for his family.
While the ship was Norwegian
there were four Germans on board
bound for this country. In some man
ner or other, the English learned OF
their sailing and the ship was halted
In midsea and taken back to England.
The German passengers were taken
off and kept in England. Finally aft
er several days delay on various pre-
texts the Christian-fjord was permit
ted to sail
Mr.. Saveride has been in this coun-
try for several years but this is the
family's first trip across the waters.

T0RRENs system
REPORT TO PENNSYLVANIA LEG
lsLATuRE MADE BY GOVERN.
MENT COMMISSION.
is INTERESTING TO IoWANs
Torrens System Measure Was Before
Last General Assembly Of Iowa.
Successful In Winnipeg. Its Use in
v. s. Has Not Been Successful.

Des Moines.--A bill that was before
the last legislature, and was given
consideration by that body, providing
the Torrens system of land registra-
ton for Iowa, failed of passage large
ly because there was feeling among
the legislators that sufficient infor-
nation upon which to base an intelli-
gent decision about the system, could
not be gathered In time for presenta-
ton to the legislators.
Real estate men generally favor the
Torrens systems. and there is little
doubt that another Torrens system
bill will be brought before the next
Iowa legislature. That body cannot
plead lack Of information about the
system, for there will be available an
exhaustive report on the operation of
the system, made by Pennsylvania
governmental commission, to the leg
islature. This report has but recent
ly been made public. This is the Sec
ond report of the commission to the
Pennsylvania legislature.
The commission has found certain
facts proving the progress of the Tor
rens idea and its successful opera
ton. In Minnesota, where says the
commission, this system comes near
er being a success than in any other
state in the union" the Torrens sys-
tenn has been in use about twelve
years. Approximately 30 per cent OF
the titles transferred in the larger
cities are registered, but very few in
the country districts. The minimum
cost for any one registration is s3S
plus one-tenth of l per cent of the
value of the land. The number OF
titles registered is gradually increas-
ing.
Winnipeg does not have the usual
recording system Ninety-five per
cent of the titles are now under the
Torrens system. The charge for ORR
ginal registration is s., plus one
quarter of per cent of the value OF
the property. The registrar is clothed
with judicial functions. This, with
similar efficiency as indicated above
and with the recent origin OF titles,
give great success to the system. The
state makes its own examination OF
the title. The average time for an
examination is less than a day, the
average cost of the work to the state
Is less than SO.
