PETITION MAY Be MaCE At
MEETING MONDAY NIGHT.

City council is to meet in regular
session Monday night, and besides the
usual amount of routine business, it
is expected that matter which has
attracted considerable attention in the
city will also come up.
Council, as committee of the
whole, is expected to submit a report
on the petition recently filed by

committee which has started a cru

city.

enforce the city laws and close all

and lewd houses. The petition was
presented by the committee following
mass meeting a few nights previous.
At later meeting of council as a

tee again appeared and the subject
was discussed at length, but nothing
definite was reached. Just what the
committee will recommend in its re-
port, if it is submitted, is not known.

Another Report.

WASHINGTON, June 12.-That the
United States and Germany are on
their way toward an amicable and hon
orable settlement of the grave differ
ences between them is the accepted
view of official and diplomatic circles
in Washington.
Unofficial but credible reports state
that the second note of the United
States was well received in Berlin.
where the note is regarded as firm
but not bombastic in tone, showing
the disposition of the United States
to come to a reasonable basis for
agreement.
Germany's answer will probably not
be sent until after the arrival of Am
bassador Bernstorffs special envoy
from the United States at Berlin.
1t became known here today that
the United States will send a note to
the allies seeking to change their
bread blockade and to urge that such
blockade be conducted according to
the international law forbidding any
interference with non-contraband
goods to or from belligerent countries
which passes through neutral territory
or is destined to neutra port.

REPLY AWAITED
TO LAST NOTE
IT Is GENERALLY BELIEVED
THAT AN AMiCABLE AND
HONORABLE SETTLEMENT
WILL BE FINALLY REACHED

WASHINGTON, June 12.-Official
Washington is today looking to Am
bassador Gerard, in Berlin, for some
indications as to how the German gov
ernment views the latest American
note to Germany concerning subma-
rine warfare.
Information reaching here says the
German officials of the foreign office
are familarizing themselves with the
communication. 1t was expected that
as soon as the German officials did so,
the ambassador would send some def
mite information as to the German at
titude.
Dispatches from Berlin are conflict
ing regarding the note. Dispatches
direct from Berlin said in some quar-
ters the note was regarded more con-
ciliatory than the cable dispatches in
dicated it would be. On the other
hand advices via London said that
Berlin was pessimistic regarding con-
tinuance of friendly relations with the
United States.

A TRIBUTE PAID
To PRES. WILSON
LONDON DAILY NEWS CALLS HIM
FIRST CITIZEN OF THE
WORLD.

LONDON, June 12.-In a two-col-
umn tribute to President Wilson, AL
fred G. Gardiner, editor of the Daily
News, says:
"No man in the democratic world
today is so entirely governed by
principle and moral sanctions. Presi-
dent Wilson is not merely the first
citizen of the United States, but the
first citizen of the world, He makes
mistakes, no doubt, for he is human,
but they never are mistakes OF
weak man; they never are the mis-
takes of political gambler or one
touched by sordid motives of ambi-
tion.
Emperor William has made many
miscalculations about nations and
men, but his greatest miscalculation
was in regard to Mr.. Wilson and the
United States. Incidentally, there also
has been much conception on the
same subject in this country.
Throughout the war his attitude has
conformed to the historic tradition OF
the United States of non-intervention
in European affairs, but he realizes
the world has changed and the United
States cannot remain Theoretically
sealed.
1.-THE rupture between President
Wilson and Bryan will be one Of the
greatest landmarks of the war. IT
is mercy for the United States that
in the nomination struggle the amia
BILE dreamer was defeated by the
statesman. In refusing to WELD an
inch on the rights of American citi
zens, President Wilson is defending
the sacred ark of freedom. He will
not go to war if war can be avoided
with honor, but the integrity of the
United States is his supreme concern
and 1t is safe in his hands"

real bargains offered, and the ladies
invite the public generally to come up.
Last night the fair enjoyed another
very good night. and the receipts were
about up to the usual, While the
fair has not netted the ladies as much

very well satisfied, in view of the fact
that the affair was pulled off in such
q short time.
