Uganda After Forty Years

Harlan F. Beach, in World Outlook.
Yonder is the vivid green hill on whose
summit Daudis grandfather, King
Mtesa, received Henry M. Stanley, who
sent the challenge to British Christians
leading the Church Missionary society to
establish it's Uganda mission, it's first
two representatives arriving at the CAPT
tai June 3d. 1877. That progressive, tickle.
cruel potentate in turn encouraged Chris
tianity and killed it's converts, as did his
successor, King Bwanga
On level stretch below the buildings
is the football field where we first met
the youthful King, watching from the re-
gal mat, which we were invited to share,
his favorite game. With all the enthu-
siasm of Yale or Harvard "rooter" and
i'll as good English as theirs-taught him
by the missionaries and an Oxford tutor
-Daudi recounted the exploits of Ugan-
da's best eleven, which proved to be the
Kings all-star team
The following day we attended the con-
secration of the just completed royal
chapel near the palace. when we were
seated at the Kings left and later knelt
to receive communion second from his
highness. Going from the chapel to the
palace, we enjoyed the amenities OF a
royal tea, after which the King took us
into his study, where to our utter aston
ishment we saw a battery-driven aero
plane, largely constructed by him under
the supervision of his tutor.
Once more we saw the King-on April
1, the date when all the tribes come UP
to the royal hill ito knot up the year"
The great courtyard was filled with por-
tiers from all over the kingdom who had
brought thither tribute, while their
chiefs were there to legislate in the par
lament house, primitive Westminster
in arrangement of seats, etc.
Ushered in with flourish of trumpets.
the humping of drums and unearthly
grunts of the royal bandmaster, the
young King descended from his throne
placed on hyena, leopard and lion skins,
greeted us most graciously and intro
duced us to the prime minister, Sir Apollo
Kagwa, who in youth, because a Chris
tan, had been gashed, beaten and COM
PEELED to flee for his life by the Kings
father.
About 300 of the chiefs puresent were
Christians, while the fezes of perhaps 80
others proclaimed them Moslems. The
assembly was far more orderly and the
proceedings more to the point than is the
case in our national House or Senate and
in England's Parliament.
These three royal scenes are a parable
Of what missions have accomplished for
the royal house and the nations capital.

Two Nations Want to Keep

Petrograd Paper Intimates q. S.
Motive of Treaty.
BY WILLIAM PHILIP sIMNIs.

Petrograd, July 1.-THE charge
that Japan's possible fear of the Unit
ed States was the motive behind the
Russo-Japanese treaty, was officially
denied here today by Counsellor G.
Kozatov of the department of foreign
affairs. He declared that the new
treaty contains no cause for alarm in
the United States and does not involve
the open door policy in China.
Counsellor Kozatov spoke in the abb
sence of Foreign Minister Sazonoff,
who is at the emperor's headquarters.
He himself first preached the question
OF a Russo-Japanese treaty when in
Japan last January, and is thus quail
fled to speak of its underlying mo-
tiVes.
ticle in a PetFograd daily newspaper,
containing the intimation that the ia
panese-American situation was a mo-
tive inspiring the treaty.
rs Utterly Absurd"
THAT is utterly absurd" he said.
1.-THE Russo-Japanese treaty was
aimed at Germany America was not
thought of. Before the war Germany
constantly talked of China. She had
a well formed policy to increase her
sphere of influence there. She re-
peatedly attempted to induce Russia
panese interests. Therefore the treaty
really had a two-fold purpose. First,
Russia, for the next decade, must
concentrate her attention on Europe,
having no time to look eastward, so
she felt the need of an ally in the
far east to protect her interests there.
Secondly Russia has no intention of
allowing Germany to do to China what
she did to Turkey.
THAT is all there is to it. America
can dismiss as baseless the talk of the
treaty being 1evelled at her. This
treaty is really the last of three-all
similar. The first in 1908, stipulated
an agreement between Russia and
Japan on Manchurian policies. The
second, in 1910, acting together with
the third in 1916, merely go a step
farther. China's open door policy Is
in no way involved. There need be no
uneasiness in the United States.''

FOR GASOLINE PROCESS
Legal Battle Over Refining Secret
Begins in Chicago Court

Chicago, July 1.-THE claims of
Layton o. Sherman, an inventor of
East Chicago, as the originator of a
secret process in the manufacture of
gasoline, was the center of a legal
battle which has opened here before
Judge Jesse A. Baldwin in the circuit
court. 1t Is said that many millions
of dollars may accrue from the process
and the suit is expected ODE hotly
contested.
w. e. D. Stokes of New York, Ellis
Crawford of Charleston, w. Va, and
Frederick A. Norris, a Michigan oil
man, claim equal rights with Sher-
man in his patented process, which. it
is declared, will revolutinoize the
manufacture of gasoline from crude
oil.
According to Attorney w. e. R.
sByrne of Charleston, representing
Crawford, Sherman's process will
manufacture gasoline from crude oil
between 40 and so per cent cheaper
than any other process now in use by
oil refining companies.

the battle in Picardy which has been
raging for ten days is absorbing most
of the attention of the German COM

revive the struggle at Verdun, making
some advance there and delivering
several sharp local attacks in the

mean unlimited sea war against Eng

not raise an army to help the allies.
You could confiscate our ships in
American ports but if you tried to use
them to carry supplies and munitions
to the allies we would sink them.

TODAY'S MARKET REPORTS.

Chicago, July 12.-WHEAT-Announ
in the neighborhood of Aberdeen, led to
a fresh advance today in the wheat mar
ket here. After a seventy mile drive
north and east of Aberdeen, a well known
expert sent word that in every field ex-
amined he had found traces of the plague
and that in some fields it was every
stalk handled. The harvest at Aberdeen
is four weeks off and the rust is showing
very early. Opening prices, which ranged
from 1ac to 1c higher with July at $1.0S16
to $1.0SH and September at $1.10 to 81. 10A
were followed by moderate further gains.
Further advances were brought about
by advices that weather conditions in the
northwest today were of sort to cause
rapid spread of black rust, cloudy, calm
and sultry after a general abundant rain.
The close was steady, 1A M1Ac to &c net
higher, with July at $1.0914 and Septem-
Der at $1.11A.
CORN-Hot weather that tended to force
growth made the corn market relatively
easy; rally, however, took place owing
to the strength Of wheat. After opening
a shade to nc lower, prices reached to
Export sales here helped later to pre-
vent any radical setback. The close was
steady at %@15c lower than yesterdays

OATS-Oats developed independent firm

ignored.

New York, July 12.-Mayor Mitchell

city, including the members of the adj
visory board of the health department,
held conference today to ascertain
whether any further steps can be TAX
en- to check the epidemic of infantile
paralysis The meeting was called as
the result of an increase yesterday of
100 per cent in the number of cases
reported. This conference brought to-
gether the most experienced medical
talent in the city, comprising senior
practitioners with wide experience in
children's diseases and epidemics, as
well as outside experts. The mayor
will transmit to his department chiefs
any orders that may be recommended
by the meeting.
The spread of the disease is gener-
ally around the centers in South
Brooklyn and the lower east side of
Manhattan, where the epidemic has
flourished since its development early
in June. Some cases, however, had
been discovered in other sections of
Brooklyn and few in the upper resi-
